There is a saying...

Make a mistake once and you can call it learning, make a mistake twice and you are eh... not so smart

Americans need education.

What devil has this guy made a deal with? No matter how stupid, obnoxious or abrasive he is, people worship him. He constantly screws himself over and then before he has to face serious consequences he trips on a rock and somehow everything's alright again for him. At this point he literally can shoot someone on 6th Avenue and get away of it. I think Trump is solid evidence that we're living in a simulation and somebody is fucking with us, because life just doesn't work the way it works for him. Somebody's thumb is on the scale.

What devil has this guy made a deal with?

He cut a Faustian Bargain with the soul of America. And like Faust, he gets to spend his days capering and clowning about his social superiors, making unholy mischief in a kingdom that is itself revealed to be terminally corrupt and wholely damned.

Trump took the Objectivist philosophy that's guided this country for a generation and embodied it. He is Reaganism in its manifest state. Just a guy entirely out for himself who has convinced 71M other people to do the same.

Jokes aside, he was heavily supported by Russia and Israel who do have quite some influence through social media

Are there betting markets for when that turd drops dead?

People need to stop blaming voters, we all need to start understand why this happen more and more in the world and not judge the voters for their decision. I have some theories but its not the time or place, but stop say "people are dumb" or "People need educations"... 100 million people cant be all dumb or uneducated, go deeper!

Hopefully dems nominate someone who actually has soul instead of a walking checklist like Kamala. Oh, who am I kidding? They won’t learn anything from this either.

Was that really the issue? She felt pretty "souly" to me. I'm wondering if it's more voter turnout and people not being ready to vote for a woman (for whatever reason).

I mean was Biden really above and beyond Harris? He beat Trump, and Trump arguably has even less going for him this election.

It's 80 degrees in November. America has reelected a climate change denier. SUV sales continue to rise.

I’d have used his garbage costume picture.

I can't feel as bad as I once did about mass shootings anymore. It's what we asked for.

[–] Bookmeat@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

I, for one, hope that this is exactly what we needed. Shit has to get dark before the light can return.
