So, I wake up to discover the media isn’t saying a damn word about how the results defy logic. Or how Donald dipshit Trump and Mikey Johnson had a “little secret” they talked about openly. It’s just, “Well, he won.”
This is why my career as a a TV talk show host would last all of about 15 minutes. I don’t give a fuck.
Fuck you Donald Trump.
Really not trying to stoke conspiracy, but is it really feasible that Dem enthusiasm at near Obama levels, an insurrection, the fall of Roe, Trump’s SCOTUS immunity deal, and Project 2025–really yielded 15 million fewer Blue voters?
Help it make sense.
While your daughter is bleeding out in a hospital waiting room without healthcare, natural disasters are ruining your home and you no longer have social security, I sure hope your eggs are cheaper
This is not a joke.
You should very much consider Elon Musk and Peter Thiel to be co-Presidents of the United States.
You will not understand how they have become the first trillionaires on Earth, or a significant chunk of our domestic or foreign policy, if you do not get this.
Seniors voted to gut Social Security.
Men voted for their wives and daughters to die from miscarriages.
Immigrants voted for deportation raids.
Poor people voted for tax cuts for billionaires.
Women voted to have fewer rights than men.
Police voted for a convicted felon.
This is genuinely the most dispiriting result of the night. The cops let your kids be slaughtered, the Republican government gave them a full-throated defense, and you rewarded them with even greater support. How do you look at yourself after that?
American voters fucked around — and now they're about to find out. As Steve Bannon admitted post election, Trump will implement the fascist manifesto Project 2025. The U.S. is about to become as cruel, barbaric, medieval and sadistic as any authortarian country in the world. 🥺👇
He's got the senate, he's got the house, he's got the Supreme Court, and he's got the Presidency.
He can do what he wants now. There will be no checks and balances.
The dictatorship is here.
Some will applaud it, but even they will suffer under it too.
I cannot fathom the feeling of the women who came forward about their sexual assault at the hands of Trump. Seeing millions of people vote for their abuser.
My heart absolutely breaks for these women. I believe you, and I am so sorry.
I thought this would hurt more than 2016 but it doesn't.
That was a shock. This is just confirmation.
We now know that 2016 wasn't a fluke or an aberration, that this is what the majority wants: whiteness, patriarchy, nationalism, hatred, nihilism.
Whether I want to spend the rest of my life in such a place is something my mind isn't prepared to consider.
Right now, I just know that I'm seeing the nation with my eyes fully open and there is no mistaking what so many people I Ioved and once respected, actually value.
As heartbreaking as that is, I now know where they stand, and I know it's nowhere I want to be.
