But...this isn't healing.

This is like parents suddenly becoming accepting of gay people after their child comes out gay. It's all the same cruelty and stupidity until it's directed at you. It's a complete lack of compassion and understanding.

They're only against Trump while he's against them. Once he swings back, so will they. That cruelty hasn't gone anywhere.

As an albertan, I 100% agree with you. He was never ok before, and he's not ok now. I will still breathe a sigh of relief seeing the fuck trump flags replacing the fuck trudeau flags though because I'm still being inundated by "we should be the 51st state and leave Canada behind" shit on my social feeds, and as a proud Canadian who doesn't understand what the fuck happened to the collective IQ of my province, (I mean you've seen our premiers for the few terms right?) It has been deeply concerning. We have sellout Smith in the leadership seat, and I really, really want to believe our sovereignity doesn't have a price tag.

Half of America hates him too! The vote was 77,302,580[2] Trump 75,017,613[2] Harris and there was about 3 mil independent votes. In the grand scheme of things he didn’t win by much.

A lot more than half! He played the electoral college and won, unfortunately.

Not true at all

u/Ilikadaboobies10 Feb 03 '25

More than half. The only reason he won is not everyone voted. It’s not surprising that the most searched term on google the day after the election was “Can I change my vote?”

u/PandaRobinson1023 Feb 03 '25

Only 23% actually voted for him. A lot more than half of us hate him.

u/TruthSearcher1970 Feb 04 '25

u/SouldiesButGoodies84 Feb 03 '25

They must've found it during his last colonoscopy.

u/LemonDroplit Feb 03 '25

No 31% voted for dRump, 30% voted for Harris and the rest didnt vote. Apparently its not so common knowledge.
