Our nation’s democratic system functioned last night and we have a new President-elect. All Americans are bound, whether we like the outcome or not, to accept the results of our elections. We now have a special responsibility, as citizens of the greatest nation on earth, to do everything we can to support and defend our Constitution, preserve the rule of law, and ensure that our institutions hold over these coming four years. Citizens across this country, our courts, members of the press and those serving in our federal, state and local governments must now be the guardrails of democracy.
Trump: MASSIVE FRAUD HAPPENING IN PENNSYLVANIA!!
*Pennsylvania called for Trump*
Trump: just kidding this election was fair
Trump voters, do you really not see a problem here? You can’t support democracy only when you win.
No offense intended, but Latinos and Muslims who voted for him are going to get exactly what they deserve if Trump wins. Sadly the rest of us are screwed too.
Stock markets at record highs, low unemployment, wage growth exceeds inflation, the best handling of inflation of any G7 nation, energy independence, and I can go on and on and on...But no matter how this result lands, whether VP Harris ekes this out or not, it is amazing how unappreciated successful governance was in this election and how Americans are so willing to bring back into office the guy who caused all the destruction.
If Trump wins, there will be efforts to blame Russian interference or the Harris campaign or Biden, etc. That's all fair. But we need to be clear eyed that a huge swath of America likes what Trump is selling. Transphobia. Mass deportation. That's what he ran on. And here we are.
That fear we're all feeling isn't normal. And we're feeling it because our country is in grave danger. This isn't normal.
No moving on after this election. We must defeat this fascist movement.
