    Let me get this right. So, you know exactly who this man is and what he stands for. Yet, you elect him anyway. You know he’s been “joking” about this before. Yet, you elect him anyway. He’s a convicted felon. Yet, you elect him anyway.

    I’ve lost every smidgen of respect I had for Americans. You went into this with eyes wide open. You deserve what’s coming.

    60% of eligible voters didn’t vote. It can be debated if they are complacent or if party leadership didn’t Sufficiently motivate them to vote

    Of the 40% eligible voters that did vote, 50% voted for trump and 48% voted for Harris.

    So depending on how you look at it, 19% of eligible voters actively didn’t vote for Trump, or 20% of eligible voters actively voted for Trump.

    We could also go on to say that, of those who voted for trump, there was a portion that was not informed which could partially be blamed on the media as well as party leaderships. Some of them are just in a cult mentality and while that doesn’t excuse their behavior, they are actively being manipulated. And then there are a bunch of voters who genuinely just want to watch the world burn.

    I’m sure we could dissect this many ways, but i can can’t see how everyone deserves what’s coming. For example , I didn’t ask for this. I actively volunteered my time to try to prevent it. Yeah, a good chunk of Americans are idiots. But not all of us deserve what’s coming. Fuck that.
