Not sure Harris is to blame for this developing tragedy.

Normally, it shouldn't matter who ran against Trump. He convicted felon and rapist should never ever have the smallest chance to get into the White House.

This shocking results says more about Americans than about Trump.

That’s the craziest part. For a group of people who love the fecking Confederacy, they sure seem to have forgotten that a hatred of tariffs, because they made goods more expensive, was one of the economic issues that pulled southerners away from the Union in the decades leading up to the 1860 election.

You’re talking as if his base are smart people and know history. They don’t even remember Jan 6 2021.

What are your feelings about the things that have been mentioned about Trump? Rapist, misogynist, racist, fascist, lies more than any politician we’ve ever seen, and just plain stupid.

But no, Kamala’s mannerisms are what needs to be focused on.

Honestly, it’s hard to believe you’re sincere.

As I wrote quite a few times, I'd have voted for her.
Also would have voted for my dog against Trump.

But it could have been a closer race with another Dem candidate, I believe.
maybe I'm wrong.
 
So all the Jan 6th rioters will be rejoicing tonight right? Blanket pardon for them and they will be back home with their families by the end of the week.
 
PA black men went 10% to Trump. Tapper just said it is looking like they’re going 25% to Trump.

It literally is them not voting for a woman.

No if Biden left early Dems could have had a chance to pick a proper candidate to run against Trump. Maybe someone like Newsom and they shouldn’t have struggled like they did tonight.

Yep. We already have morons aping right wing Americans and their language. That's not going to improve any time soon.

Same here in Norway. It’s depressing how easily it’s slotted into the landscape.

At this rate I’ll be radicalized at some point.
 
Carolina Red said:
Well, the reality for me when I voted today was that I have an understanding of basic economic concepts and recent history.

But yes, you’re right, the average Trump voter likely does not have said cognitive abilities and therefore are unreachable by reasonable means.

Again though, you are looking at a general picture and not at the real world experiences of the average US citizen. It's the completely wrong way to look at things and being smug about it because you have an understanding of economics means very little to people who struggle every single day to put food on their table.

Not a dig at you and I get you're probably angry btw.
 
moses said:
You're very happy tonight. That's nice. I'm not sure why that has amused you so much but glad it did.

I’m not happy or amused at all. I wouldn’t have voted for Trump.

You people are fecking nuts!

Waking up in Europe, does someone have a TLDR of the 'result' so far?

Why does Pete Buttiget (so?) continue to sit on the sidelines? He seems such a more eloquent and genuine politician than most of the Democrats. Is it because he's gay that they fear some won't vote for him?
 
The autopsy will be exhausting too. Everyone clamouring to give their version of “the” reason this happened

I was talking hard core tongue in cheek there when I said “For a group of people who love the fecking Confederacy, they sure seem to have forgotten”

I live among them. They claim to know their history, but they don’t know shit.
 
I mean, the world is just becoming a bad place isn’t it? How are people so fooled by this man. I refuse to accept it’s just a protest now since for him to win, he also needs to be voted by independents. This is the issue with his first time. He’s entirely normalised that whilst people might not be racist (for example) it’s a feature they can cope with because, “the economy sucks” (for example).

The world is slowly drifting into a dangerous place.

She’s been irrelevant for the last 4 years. She’s getting giddy at all the exclusives and investigations that are going to topple Trump over the next 4 years.

Not this again, 4 years I waited for his impeachment :(

Each of the last few US election cycles have seen me come away with the renewed sense that huge swathes of men particularly are absolute pieces of shit.

He’s a very good speaker - really like listening to him whenever I have. I don’t think America is ready for a homosexual Pres though.

"the economy, stupid" - basically. and over a period spanning a lot longer than your usual 4 to 8 year analysis.
