OFFICIAL ELECTION RESULTS - POTUS | TRUMP ELECTED 47th President

[Healing]

Also, goodbye Ukraine. Was nice knowing you as a country.

Poland might not be far behind. At a minimum, Putin wants the Warsaw pact firmed up, by hook or by crook.

 

[fssheels]

THERE IS A SEPARATE TARIFF THREAD. THANKS.

 

[Duke Mu]

Blue wall still very much in play but we are hours away from enough votes to have a clear idea.

It could be a day or two.

 

[HintonJamesHeel]

I would say it’s a sad day for America but i just keep thinking it’s an odd day. We have become what we used to look at and couldn’t believe. When other countries out thugs in power, we couldn’t believe it. Now we’ve become what we hated.

She can’t lose. I don’t understand why everyone has given up. She’s a perfect candidate and ran a near perfect campaign race.

Wait...

What?

 

[aGDevil2k]

Why didn’t Biden/ Harris remove the Trump tariffs?

the trolls are coming

 

[dukeman92]

Yeah I really thought he would get his ass kicked this election. What a fool to believe.

Me too. I just don’t know how I’ll go to any family functions.

The global ramifications could be horrific. Adios Taiwan.

 

[Awinisawin]

I want to be president. I’m 59. So much younger than orangegod. All I need is to get a tv show and a hook phrase. If anyone can help me out , I would be appreciative.

 

[altmin]

feeling that anxiety spike grow to unsustainable levels. I may have to bail out.

 

[aGDevil2k]

I was hopeful it would be a nice evening. I was in denial it could come down to the blue wall. And sure enough, it will

Can she hold it?

Perfect candidate?

When did the USA hate autocrats being put in power?

 

[Duke Mu]

Perfect candidate?

Jen O'Malley too the wind out of their sails. Really good effort post hurricanes though.

 

[Awinisawin]

The global ramifications could be horrific. Adios Taiwan.

And don’t forget that Putin would like to have Alaska back.

But maybe Greenland has reconsidered their position

I am going to bed soon myself. I will resign myself to Trump winning, hopefully it wont be as bad as we think, hopefully his voters are the ones that suffer the most, and most hopefully she actually holds the blue wall and we wake up relieved.

 

[EyeballKid]

Why didn’t Biden/ Harris remove the Trump tariffs?

Many of them expired. The ones kept in place were specifically targeted to China and not huge.

Big difference from 10-20% across the board on all imports, with significantly higher tariffs (60% to 200%) on any country Trump gets angry at.

EDIT — PLEASE TAKE THE TARIFF DISCUSSION TO THE TARIFF THREAD. THANKS.

When did the USA hate autocrats being put in power?

Ford, Carter, Reagan, 41, Clinton certainly weren't autocrats. Obama wasn't. W let Cheney run the show and Trump is Trump.

 

[Mulberry Heel]

Well, we've kept hearing from Trumpers throughout the campaign - and on this very board - that things really "won't get that bad" if Trump is elected. I guess we're about to find out. And for the record, if he does win I think his second term is going to be a nightmare for everyone, and in the end even for most Trump voters, although they'll be loathe to admit it. We may have well reached the "fuck around and find out" stage of things.
