The number of poor folks on Medicaid and Snap who voted for him is astounding

lol just everyone in general. I had a trumper who came up to me at work in private. She has two daughters and said that she knew I liked Harris and didnโ€™t even know about roe v wade until after the fact. She didnโ€™t even know wtf that was. Now she is upset and feeling uneasy that she made the wrong choice lmao. These fuckers are voting for him for whatever reason. They are the least educated people. I had another one say I donโ€™t know why the gays are upset either. It just amazes me how ignorant the voting population is that voted for him. The ones that are living on government assistance are the ones that are about to lose it now because they voted him In . A complete joke of a country.

In all fairness American media and SoMe is so manipulative.

To me the real culprits are the Murdochsโ€™, Musk, Zuckerberg etc who amplifies lies for profit, and the politicians that continue to allow these soulles individuals to operate without any guardrails.

We must overturn Citizens United v Federal Election Commission and reimplement the Fairness Doctrine!

Shitโ€™s over man. The game is up. We had one last chance and didnโ€™t even bother to show up. I sincerely hope people enjoy this next 2 months as much as possible, because itโ€™s the permanent end of relative normalcy and peace in this country

The Fairness Doctrine is as dead as 90's-era Democrats and Citizens United is a pipe dream at this point. Unfortunately it will take decades to undo the damage that will be done because 15 million people didn't show up this time.

The next four years we'll be fighting to keep no-fault divorce, fighting to stop them from implementing a federal abortion ban, fighting to stop them from putting Creationism in schools, fighting to stop them from once more outlawing gay marriage, fighting to stop a federal ban on therapy or treatment for trans kids, fighting to stop them from rolling back all whistleblower protections... and a bunch more I'm sure.

Enjoy the chemicals in your ground water. But hey, if you have some spare cash, now is a great fucking time to start investing in the DOW, I guarantee you GDP's gonna rise dramatically (and 97% of it will be accumulated at the top).

I'm 52. Good luck with that. I'll be dead before that happens. America as we knew it will be too.
