Donald Trump has been elected the 47th president of the United States, an extraordinary comeback for a former president who refused to accept defeat four years ago, sparked a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, was convicted of felony charges and survived two assassination attempts.
On the plus side maybe we will start hearing about the horrors at the US Border that magically stopped in november 2020.
Democrats will learn nothing from this.
Well I guess the good news is that it no longer matters if they learn anything? These election results make it clear that going forward they’ll have about as much effect on lawmaking as a dead hamster. It’s even possible that, except for serving as a convenient cardboard bogeyman, they’ll otherwise cease to exist at all.
Id go so far as to say they’re paid good money to explicitly not learn from this.

Democrats are learning in real time what the real function of a controlled opposition party is in a capitalist dictatorship.
I feel like people are just rolling over and taking it? He shouldn’t even be eligible because of the 14th Amendment “no insurrection” thing.
Democrats vocally came out against getting him off the ballot for his crimes alleging ‘you can only beat him at the ballot box’, but it turns out they can’t.
Kamala must be so stoked to see so many republicans in the cabinet.
Well, crap.
The leopard ate my face are going to hit so hard all those non white and rich trump fan in the next years
Fuck
Isn’t USA culture very big about “never give up”?
Only if you’re white. If not, do as your told or you may be assaulted, imprisoned, or shot dead. Sometimes you’ll do what your told and those things will still happen.
Eh, at this point a majority of the voting block voted for fascism. I’m about ready to just call it, go home and not participate anymore.
I understand your feelings but would urge you tor reconsider. All it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing.
Tyranny by majority…
No. Fuck no. Absolutely not.
Ah, well! Nevertheless,
The best news in the last three years! :)
I just hope that he will follow through with quickly finishing the war in Ukraine.
Perhaps if you’re some combination of white, or straight, or cisgender, or neurotypical, or rich, then this is good news. For anyone else its dire.
I’m sure he will, by giving Ukraine to Russia and letting them murder Zelensky.

Wouldn’t happen, but even this is way better than giving it to Zelensky.
and letting them murder Zelensky.
No way. I mean that would be awesome of course, bringing justice to that murderer who killed hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians, terrorizing the rest for three years and not letting people escape. But that would never happen, USA almost certainly gave Zelensky some guarantees that he will be able to escape to USA after this war ends.
I just hope that he will follow through with quickly finishing the war in Ukraine.
Yeah, that’s a monkey paw wish. His “ending the war in Ukraine” almost certainly means giving Putin whatever he wants.

Even if you are right (I don’t think so), so what?
How is this worse then what is hapenning now (to Ukrainians)?
Inb4 probably some delusiomal fantasies about how Putin is gonna invade the whole world, etc. :/

Ah yes, the usual undefeatable argument of libs/dems/whatever - if you don’t like us slaughtering people you know, then you are fascist, dumb and most importantly a Russian bot and fuck you. 🙃

I recall they said the same about Hilter. It was called appeasement. Don’t accept bullies demands. Period.

Then go sign up for foreign legion and go make sure Putin loses. Don’t make Ukrainians die instead of you for your wild fantasies.
Make them die? They can surrender themselves right? As long as they want to fight I see no reason not to supply them with the means to usurp the oppressers.
