Donald Trump has won a second term in the White House after surpassing the 270 electoral votes needed for victory, CBS News projected Wednesday morning.
We can still try to obstruct via filibuster and other mechanisms. (Republicans have already shown us how to do it effectively.) But certainly no progress can be made for the next four years.
You’re putting far too much faith in the voters at this point.
Depending on how the cost of living situation goes, Trump is either going to take credit for improvements set in motion before his 2024 term, or he’s going to astronomically tank it and blame it on the previous administration. No matter which happens, he will frame it to make himself look better than the Democrats while the MAGA crowd eats it up.
People’s feelings about the economy is the number 1 indicator of whether a party will be voted out of office.
If Trump goes through with his insane tarrifs, inflation will skyrocket, people will be livid over the economy, and the Republicans in the Senate will be in real trouble.
I agree… did they expect her to start a socialist revolution? As if they would march to the capitol for her when they wouldn’t even show up to vote?
I’m glad she’s setting an example of normal adult human behavior, it’s hard to even call it the “high road”… It’s just NOT acting like a toddler. We can’t afford to have a January 6th every four years.
Absolutely nothing, just that America on the whole is a racist country and deserves everything that Trump wants to give it, especially those Democrats that were part of the 15 million that didn’t vote, condoning this racist country.
Nope, just sick of this racist country and thinks it deserves to be rewarded for electing a convicted felon, legally liable rapist, racist back into office.
Enjoy the self-satisfaction of having taken the high road while the concentration camps get built.
This. She will live in comfort at home while we suffer

Think outside the box.
2 years. In 2026, 20 Republican Senators will be up for re-election.

As if Republicans won’t eliminate the filibuster. They have no use for it because they don’t plan on being in the minority ever again.
Excuse me?! They’re called “internment camps”!
Oh my gawd, what are you talking about?
You don’t win against someone who is cheating by playing fair.
And what did you want her to tell people to march to the capitol and hang the vice president being willing to certify the election?
Nah, Americans voted for Trump and his fascism, his racism so let them have it.
Only follow the rules with those who follow them too.
Exactly, 70 million American Nazis are to thank for this.
Only 70 million voted for him?
Pretty low compared to last election…
340ish million Americans, ~74 million of them changed the world forever.
72 so far, Harris with 67. Pretty low turnout given the stakes
When it’s all counted, he will likely have about the same amount as he did last time.
It’s not that people voted for Trump, it’s that people didn’t vote for Harris.
I agree… did they expect her to start a socialist revolution? As if they would march to the capitol for her when they wouldn’t even show up to vote?

He’ll of a way to blow off all the deaths that are coming. I don’t cate what happens to his voters. But the rest of us are going to suffer too.
So be it. Maybe idiot America will actual learn when shot goes south with no one saving their dumb asses.
I voted Haris. I am not one of those animals
I voted Harris too but honestly F Americans as a whole here. We all deserve what the Republicans are going to serve.
What exactly did the Harris voters do to deserve this?
Absolutely nothing, just that America on the whole is a racist country and deserves everything that Trump wants to give it, especially those Democrats that were part of the 15 million that didn’t vote, condoning this racist country.
No. No we don’t you dunce.
Are you fucking stupid or something?
Nope, just sick of this racist country and thinks it deserves to be rewarded for electing a convicted felon, legally liable rapist, racist back into office.
Yeah exactly, this is also why they should’ve just left the confederacy alone /s
I mean, we don’t need the president’s permission to revolt.
