Jesus, sore loser much?
American Politics: A Brand New Day
-
Get nuts or go crazy trying.
-
Even as a non-American, this result makes me pretty damn ecstatic. Lots of work to do still but you gotta take the wins where you can. Congratulations USA.
-
It's over, 4 years of political instability has came to a crashing end.
However I wish it was not Biden running, it should be a younger, healthier candidate.
-
And now begins the time between now and January 10th - a time in which Trump might even literary burn the White House down.
-
He might resist and a few riots might happen but its clear who the people that are really in power stand
-
Mr. Trump, you're fired
The thought that he got turned into a one-term president is just the absolutely glorious cherry on top. I can't thank all of you who yeeted this guy out of the white house enough. Especially black women, I love them so much. Man, they have to deal with so much absolute crap every day but they're always soldiering on, being the greatest bulwark BTFO'ing the far right.
Is there still an archive of the politics thread 4 years ago? Probably not huh? It would be great to read it again and feel vindicated for the pain we felt that day.
-
Tonight's episode of SNL is going to be interesting now.
-
But seriously, congrats you guys.
Things won't be fixed overnight, but the constant stream of toxic stupidity from the highest office in the country won't be breathing down your necks anymore.
It's a start! -
There is something I need to share. A few months ago, I had a dream that Biden was speaking at his inauguration while Trump became a first term president. This was the first time in my life I had a prophetic dream. Yet I decided to vote for Biden due to my gut telling me. I happen to be right this time around.

November 7th: Joe Biden is elected President.
November 7th: Donald Trump plays golf.
-
It still shouldn't have been this close. No dignity, no empathy, incompetent, a racist, sexist pig, a wannabe dictator.
And yet 60 + million voted for this madman.
-
@Cyan:
Well we can already assume he's not going to come back as a good person.
@Johnny:

The 70 million people are like the people wishing for death in Persona 3…....they even made this election as tedious as the boss battle against Nyx.
-
You mean 70+ million. Still scary, America, still scary. You guys sure some of your more civilized states don't wanna join Canada instead?
-
Not much to say except:
-
Good riddance.
Really happy for you guys! -
Oh man, this election was my first time voting, and I know there's still a ton of stuff wrong with this country we need to fix, I know way too many people voted for Trump and Republicans in congress, and I know things may not be easy going forward, but still, just for right now, just for this moment:
-
I mean, it was pretty much a done deal since yesterday, but it's nice for it to be official.
-
I am very happy for you guys!
The wait for this moment has been taxing.I just hope it will stay peaceful, because Trump sure as hell will fight until the last moment.
-
Ah. The Return Of The Jedi to Trump's The Empire Strikes Back to Obama's A New Hope.
-
I really hope Trump gets prosecuted for the shit he done as a president since there is no more president's immunity and in the process they revoke his rights to ever be a politician.

Truly the mood outside in New York City

A special Saturday edition of What the Fuck Just Happened Today:

[h=1]Day 1388: A total loser.[/h]
1/ Biden defeated Trump to become the 46th president of the United States. The Associated Press and TV networks called Pennsylvania’s 20 electoral votes for Biden, putting him over the 270-vote threshold needed to win the Electoral College. Shortly after, Nevada was also called for Biden. “With the campaign over, it’s time to put the anger and the harsh rhetoric behind us and come together as a nation,” Biden said in the statement. “It’s time for America to unite. And to heal. We are the United States of America. And there’s nothing we can’t do, if we do it together.” Shortly before news organization called the race, Trump“I WON THIS ELECTION, BY A LOT!” Kamala Harris will become the nation’s first woman, first Asian American, and first Black vice president. Trump, meanwhile, is the first president since 1992 to fail to win a second term. Biden is expected to give his victory speech at 8 p.m. Saturday — a full five days after the last ballots were cast. (New York Times / Washington Post / Politico / NPR / Associated Press / Wall Street Journal / Los Angeles Times / USA Today / ABC News / NBC News / CNN)2/ Moments after CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, AP, and Fox News called the presidential election for Biden, Trump refused to concede, falsely claimed that the election was “far from over,” accused Biden of “rushing to falsely pose as the winner,” and threatened legal action to contest the results in some states. “Beginning Monday, our campaign will start prosecuting our case in court to ensure election laws are fully upheld and the rightful winner is seated,” Trump said in a statement issued while he was golfing at his club in Virginia. The Trump campaign has already filed — and lost — multiple lawsuits alleging voting violations in several states. (Fox News / NPR / Associated Press / Politico /
)
3/ The U.S. recorded more than 1,000 coronavirus deaths for the fourth straight day. The U.S. also set a daily record for new cases for the third straight day, with more than 132,700 new cases. At least 17 states reported single day records for new cases, and four states reported record deaths. (New York Times)- [h=4]

- U.S.: Total confirmed cases: ~9,788,000; deaths: ~237,000

4/ White House chief of staff Mark Meadows tested positive for the coronavirus. He didn’t issue a statement after testing positive for coronavirus this week and directed officials and advisers to not disclose his condition. At least five other people within Trump’s orbit tested positive for coronavirus in the days before and after Election Day, including top campaign aide Nick Trainer. (Bloomberg / New York Times / Washington Post / CNN)
5/ Trump fired the leaders of the agencies responsible for the nation’s nuclear weapons stockpile, electricity and natural gas regulation, and overseas aid. The White House declined comment on the firings, and declined to say whether there would be more following the election. (NPR)Waldorf: You know Statler, after watching the last one thousand episodes of One Piece, I think I've come to a conclusion.
Statler: No you haven't.
Both: DOHOHOHOHOHO!

He is going to start dismantling everything as a fuck you to Biden and his supporters. He is going crazy folks.

On a positive note, that would means he has no real plans of what to show on monday regarding the vote counts.

Weird. You said on Discord that you would vote Trump.

I can't change my mind? I decided to follow my gut and say "Forget it I'll just vote for Biden to kick out Trump. I have enough of him"

"Y'know, I was thinking about maybe voting for 4 more years of bigotry and hate but then at the last minute decided, fuck it, why not vote for basic decency."

Congrats USA. That was the first step. It's cool to have the hope again that the EPA recovers and people like Ajit Pai get sacked forever.
-
CNN is reporting Biden has taken on Dick Cheney as a foreign policy advisor.
Boy, I dunno…

I wonder what Takto is up to.

Pai is still there where I don't want him to be near a 50 kilometer radius.
And I wonder what Trump's kids will do now. What did they do before?

Check out my podcast for conversations about Greatness in anime, sports, music, and whatever else we can think of.

Can we all give a special shout out to Arizona, Rin's home state, who turned the tide by flipping blue? That's what Trump gets for shitting on McCain for his entire presidency.
-
ARIZONA! A-R-I-Z-O-N-A! Awesomezona!
-
There is no fucking way Biden would take Cheney on as an advisor.
And I wonder what Trump's kids will do now. What did they do before?
Well, Ivanka ran her own fashion label which was . . okay? But apparently that shut down a couple years ago, so I have no idea what she plans to do now. No idea what the other three did other than probably worked in dad's company, and the youngest is still in school.
-
Pretty happy for you guys over there!
Meanwhile in the White House:
-
Also a small but important detail: Biden is bringing dogs back to the White House! Including the first rescue dog.
https://www.vogue.com/article/biden-dog-in-the-white-houseSeriously, it's not a White House without pets in it to keep everyone sane. Maybe that was Trump's problem. Although I wouldn't wish Trump on any innocent animal.
