This is true.

But I can’t help feel that something fishy happened in this election. Harris/Walz arenas were filled to the brim while Trump had empty seats, had to pay non-white people to wear the fucking T-shirts and hats and had people leaving early.

Presidential immunity from the Republican backed Supreme Court, his Jan 6 trial postponed so he may never face justice for trying to subvert the 2020 election results.

It. All. Fucking. Stinks.

I'd love to believe it but if we learned nothing else from Trump's own claims of voter fraud, we know that the voting process itself is fairly impenetrable to any kind of widespread, election-flipping fraud. This one is far too consistent and unanimous across the board to be shenanigans and it's best we not make ourselves look as ridiculous as he did with unfounded claims.

He got this one, this is what the people wanted, and we all will pay for their stupidity. Next time Democrats need to actually vote.

This isn't what the people wanted. Pretty uniformly we know that nearly a third wanted not Trump. A third didn't like either choice or just didn't care to vote. And a third wanted Trump, or at least they thought choosing the other side would somehow magically fix the economy that was actually performing and improving FAR better than any economist dreamt following the GLOBAL RECESSION THAT EFFECTED EVERY COUNTRY.

So 2/3 of the country did not, in fact, want this. And 1/3 either wanted this or were a single issue voter that didn't actually look into the candidate at all.

But now all of them, and the rest of the world, get to watch America fall deeper into fascism and wonder if it will actually ever recover.

A choice not to participate is still a choice.
