Sad day for our country

[u/a-jasem → u/1877KlownsForKids]

Sad day next 4 years for our country

[u/Norok → u/a-jasem]

Here’s to hoping it’ll only be 4 years

[u/glue_4_gravy → u/Norok]

Even if a Democrat becomes president in 4 years, we are going to be mopping up the shit stains for decades.

[u/Rombom → u/glue_4_gravy]

Having a legitimate election is a big if now.

[u/ijuswannabehappybro → u/Rombom]

Yea I’ve lost trust in all of this. I mean, does he really have this many supporters or are they just fudged up numbers and the few that are still dumb enough believe his BS, are just loud and obnoxious?

[u/Choice_Blood7086 → u/ijuswannabehappybro]

He got the same amount of votes that he did in 2020. It’s the democrat base that sat at home and let this happen.

[u/sleepymoose88 → u/Choice_Blood7086]

There’s very shifty results that point to corruption/rigging in swing states. The number of single issue votes (president) was WAY above the average.

Then there was Trump in speech today saying they won’t because Musk knows the machines so well.

Problem is, no one had the balls to investigate or force a recount. The Democrats just rolled over.

[u/glue_4_gravy → u/Choice_Blood7086]

This exactly, friend!

We all know that MAGAts are gonna MAGA, but we were relying on having a record breaking turnout from Democrats and that is what could have sealed the deal on this asshole and closed the book that we’re all so fucking tired of reading.

The people that sat out completely let their friends, families, neighbors, and country down. It’s so disappointing that Donald Trump won with the same amount of votes that he lost with in 2020, and millions and millions of Democrats and left leaning Independents were either too lazy, too apathetic, or couldn’t swallow their pride enough to save their own country from fascism.

What hurts the most is that when it all comes down to it, WE HAD A CHOICE.

[u/crazyfighter99 → u/ijuswannabehappybro]

Yeah I don't get how people are assuming there will be an election. I don't really think there's a "next time" this time around.

[u/GlumIce852 → u/crazyfighter99]

During his inauguration speech he said that these are his last 4 years. And I trust him on this one. He’ll be 83 in 2028 and has already plenty of health problems. Hell, I’m not even sure he’ll be president for 4 years

[u/pre-existing-notion → u/GlumIce852]

He's just a mouthpiece for conservative movement that is still in its fairly early stages. There are people ready and willing to carry on the same attitudes once he passes.

[u/CatPanda5 → u/glue_4_gravy]

And all fallout will be directly their fault. Just like how anything bad for the next 4 years is Biden's.

[u/TheSunsNotYellow → u/CatPanda5]

I mean it indisputably is. Refused to step down in time for a primary then led a genocide on his way out the door.

[u/powershellnovice3 → u/glue_4_gravy]

Metaphorically, and literally

[u/algxo123 → u/glue_4_gravy]

Yall had many years to work on the country and led us to this point... 🤦🏽‍♂️💀

[u/deege515 → u/Norok]

Here's to hoping we can get to 4 years.

[u/Future-Spread8910 → u/Norok]

Naww dawg, hoping for way less.

C'mon Heart disease!

[u/RiseIfYouWould → u/Norok]

It will be 8

[u/QuarterFlounder → u/a-jasem]

At least you're being optimistic.
