Special shout-out to the folks that voted third party because "my state will be blue"

Taking the data from here and throwing it in a spreadsheet, Trump got more votes than everyone else combined, including the Libertarian party, RFK Jr, and Write-ins.

Honestly, it doesn't matter, even if every single 3rd party voter went for Harris, Trump still wins

Same. I'm not sure if I'm more... "Ok" with this? We should still abolish the electoral college, but we were shafted by the American people this time (and the propaganda machine making things worse). It's the first time since I turned 18 that the GOP actually won the popular vote... Sigh

Like every election, only about 1/3 of eligible voters did. I will never again listen to a single fucking thing people who didn't vote or those who threw theirs away on a 3rd-party candidate have to say.

There are people in fascist authoritarian countries (incoming in 3, 2, 1...) who would love to vote and have it matter. They would even choose to die for it...

Trump didn’t get more votes than 2020.

Palestine is freed... from existing.

The genocide will finally stop!

I'll bet we never find out how many were denied the ability to vote because of registration purges, bomb threats, and other malicious voter suppression.

But the fact that states both voted for abortion access at the state level and then also voted in all Republicans who will pass a national ban shows the voting population is stupid enough that this was the likely outcome anyway.

Fuck this country.

Nah, those are rookie numbers. Gotta pump those numbers up. And they have a whole playbook ready for it this time, so things are gonna get interesting and tragic sooner than later.

Bonus points that if we make through, we can look forward to new exciting wars about water resources and inhospitable climate problems

They are fucking incapable of learning this.

Bernie polled great against Trump but they snubbed him for Hillary and we lost because of it.

The only reason Biden won was because he wasn't Trump and we were tired of him at that point.

Kamala had a chance to swing a little more left but continued to try to court moderate conservatives and the suburbs instead.

They just can't get it through their heads that: Trump and maga are winning as a reaction of "fuck the system". This mostly stems from corporations and the filthy rich not being taxed enough and us not spending enough on social programs. That energy could have been captured and utilized by running a leftist.

But instead we get milquetoast business as usual bullshit

If there is any light ahead, I think it’s that this L forces the Democratic Party to lean back left with their campaign promises, and whatever power they have left to affect policy.

Trump is going to have/help Israel just erase Gaza and the Palestinians as a people, there will be no need for any "solution". And this is apparently what all these people sitting out wanted in the end. Hope they enjoy the view from their high horse.

As long as money is in politics, never.

We can always blame someone but the candidate who failed a popularity contest.

Obama was a once in many generation politician, he had charisma and appeal no democrat president ever had. Democrats better field a white straight male from now on if they want to win, forget women president for 3-4 decades now. The kind of misogyny in america is crazy, I am from India, a third world country and even we had a female Prime Minister in our 75 year of independent history, and she was very much respected and one of the most popular. America in its 250 year of history had none, thats just crazy for a so called superpower
