well, my plan was to just go to sleep once it became clear that Harris was gonna coast to victory, but now it looks like the Democrats might well be on their second once-a-century fuckup in a decade, so I can't look away

i'm gonna need coffee in the morning

if i've said it once i've said it 72 trillion times, never underestimate the ability of democrats to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory

I've been sounding the alarm bells on the Democrat's rhetoric for months now, so I'm not surprised. But Harris can still turn it around, it's not fully bratover yet.

A massive trump blowout is definitely the funniest outcome. I kinda wanted to study what Harris would do though.

I was kinda hoping we'd see one side appear to be winning but barely and then it flips so both sides could be in tatters for a while and then the losers would cry about some conspiracy or another for 10 years.
