    Hope the price of eggs was worth sacrificing all your civil liberties America

    You deserve everything you’re going to fucking get. That includes the women and Latinos that voted for him. Your faces will be eaten eventually and you will get zero sympathy from me.

      The amount of interviews I’ve seen where people say “yeah, he has some concerning talking points, but he promised a good economy” boil my fucking blood. The safety of half the population for the empty promise of jobs.

      Can’t wait til they somehow spin the failed economy against the Dems again in four years.

        I have an idea! Let’s put the guy whose policies partly contributed to our current economic state back in charge of everything. He’ll definitely fix it this time.

      Please don’t forget that neatly half of the country realizes he’s insane and is terrified. Not everyone deserves this. Tens of millions of us out there don’t want this.

      I hate this as a Canadian cause it’s gonna mess with our economy. But it will also stoke more support for the current conservative dickbag running to be prime minister. Also I don’t want more Americans moving here.

        Also I don’t want more Americans moving here.

        I have a sad feeling the rest of the world feels the same way.

        I’m at the point where I want to leave these borders. I want to go somewhere relatively quiet and developed that has worker’s rights and isn’t some major turbulent player in the game of global domination.

        I’d respect my new home and integrate and do my best to get along with my new neighbors.

        But I’m pretty sure we’re stuck here to endure this madness.

        The rich have already departed though. So you’ll probably end up with less humble American refugees and more pompous real-estate moguls. And for that, I’m sorry.

      Yeah the thing is the average trump supporter will be hurt less than everyone else (and that’s the whole point)

        Oh, no. They will be hurt the same as everyone else but The Donald will just tell them that it’s the Democrats/immigrants/gay people’s/critical race theory’s fault and they will believe him because having someone else to blame for their problems is a lot easier than fixing their problems.

          No, straight cis white men will get hurt economically and through living in a degraded society, but they will not be forced to carry pregnancies, or be murdered because of their race or their sexual orientation.

          And they know that. As long as he hurts those others even more they’re fine with what he does to them.

    About 6 million fewer votes for Trump than last election, which is good, but it doesn’t matter since there are 18 million fewer votes for Harris than for Biden last election! Where were those 18 million people? It can’t be that all of them are in the “I don’t vote for genocide” camp. What happened?

    It’s never been clearer that not voting gives the election to the Republicans.

      Canada has an increasing anti immigrant sentiment right now. They’ve announced big cut backs to the number of immigrants allowed. Furthermore, moving to another country is difficult and expensive. It’s not a realistic option for most people.

        Tbh most of the ire aimed at immigrants here is specifically targeted to either Indian or Ukrainian migrants. Infrastructure is genuinely buckling under the weight of migration but it’s a case of too little investment and not entirely the result of immigration.

        I can say as a white, western immigrant to Canada that I’ve never had anyone complain about my immigration however I’ve had locals complain about immigration to me forgetting that I am indeed one of the immies.

            What do you mean “you pricks”? I am not American. I am German. And I think you are having a panic attack.

            Not arguing against the things you wrote possibly happening. Hell, I think it will be even worse than that.

            But these people also didn’t want any of this. Let’s not be awful against those who need a blanket and a hug, please?

        I n voted for Harris but agree with you. We need to stay and clean up our mess. Because were are we going run to. America doesn’t just affect America but whole world. We need to fight not run.

        I’m in that country and can’t disagree. I was just paraphrasing the line from the Joker movie to a friend of mine,“We’re going to get exactly what we deserve.”

        The people fleeing it are exactly the people you’d want to see.

        Actually, given the senseless over-generalization, you might prefer seeing your spiritual brothers, the republicans.
