I’m beside myself today. I pretty much cleared my day of meetings and just did what work I could muster.
I can’t believe that Trump won. But then again, what’s with the Democrats going to the center? Obama won because he spoke to progressive causes.
Our two party system is a wreck. And I can’t even say Trump didn’t get the popular vote, because he fucking did.
The problem is that people didn’t show up and vote for Kamala Harris. White men didn’t vote or voted for Trump in a much larger way than vote Democrat.
And to those who didn’t vote and want to complain later? STFU. If you don’t vote you don’t get to complain when shit hits the fan.
Look, all we can do is brace ourselves for a dumpster fire.
This isn’t going to be good.
Fittingly, it’s November 6th and 80 fucking degrees in the Philadelphia-metro area. Ironic? Nah, Mother Nature just said “fuck it, I give up!”
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t looking to move from Pennsylvania. Somewhere more Blue and will give some protections, while we have them.
I’m shocked that the Latino vote went so much for Trump, when they will probably be the most impacted by his policies. And not in a good way.
Honestly, this is so fucked up. A convicted felon (among a bunch of other things) just became POTUS (and for the 2nd time). And yet people can’t get a job at McDonalds with a criminal record. That’s messed up beyond belief.
