I don't get it. Harris had all the momentum, the energy, the crowds. How the hell could she still lose? This country doesn't make any sense. I don't understand how she got less votes when you would think she would get Biden's votes, you had Pubs saying they would vote for her, and you would think new voters would be in her favor, especially young women. None of this crap makes sense.

We will get through it. The country is bigger than any one person.

No it isn’t, and no we won’t. Last time there were guardrails. Last go around Trump was somewhat trying and appointed decent people like Jim Mattis/Mark Esper, John Kelly, Mark Milley, etc. Those people aren’t getting jobs in this administration. He’s going to be hiring nut jobs like RFK Jr and Elon Musk to jobs they know nothing about with mandates to destroy dozens of federal agencies. The damage caused by Trump 2.0 will take decades to recover from, if we even do.
 
Well, you guys will have one less Dukie around here after tonight. No reason for me to continue investing so much of myself in this country. Which means I won’t need to discuss politics with you fine folks.
 
If everything goes sideways, then I will choose to relish the sudden disappearance of grievance from all the Trumpers around me. Right now, every problem in their lives is the fault of Democrats. It will be "fun" to watch all the moonwalking and backtracking and moving of the goalposts to defend Trump.

Helene, Milton, Jen O'Malley. Also, somehow Biden't misapplied garbage quip cancelled out Trump's nazi/misogynist/racist 3 week rant.

I’ve decided you can’t believe anything you see or hear headed into an election. Nobody really effing knows what it all means especially with the MAGA factor.

You're laughably naive. A man who is a convicted felon, rapist, con artist and sociopath is preferred by more than half of the nation and you think we are somehow bigger than that? Um, no we really aren't.

Biden beat him 4 years ago.

Trump is super popular. This was at best a complete toss up. Not sure why you thought anything different.

Because I don't understand how he is still super popular. His campaign this go around was even worse. Harris had all the momentum and energy. I just can't wrap my mind around why people like him unless they are just idiots, racists, and bigots that want a fascist nation.

Likewise. I certainly appreciate this forum post-IC, but once this is called out I have to check out. This country is seriously as shitty as I hoped it wasn’t, and posting about it every day won’t help me.
 
This isn't 2016 to me, I was blindsided then. I know who we are as a country now so this was to be expected, we'll get through the next four years just like we did the first four. It will suck and our country will be worse off but we'll get through it.

That Fed spending was to keep the economy from crashing, due to the PANDEMIC! The pandemic and inflation were both GLOBAL problems.

It was passed in 2022, had more to do with climate than Covid. The Fed choked off inflation with higher rates, which has created more difficulties for the economy.

Well, I’m out for the evening for what I’m sure will be a restless night of sleep.

Love you guys, and enjoyed the discussions the last few months. I’d suggest getting your Super Ignore ready, because this board is about to be swamped.

As the country descends into chaos over the next four years, at least we’ve got this great board to talk our way through all the terrible shit that’s coming our way.

Fuck this country.

Yep, if Trump does win there will be a wave of Trumper trolls here tomorrow and for the next several days. This is what they live for.
 
You guys have all thrown in the towel too early. So far this is the same thing that happened in 2020.

NY times only has Trump like 70% likely to win Pennsylvania right now and if he doesn’t get Pennsylvania, it’s anybody’s game.
