Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description.

Exactly, I wasn't so much shocked as I was surprised Harris lost. I mean how can so many people be that dense as to vote for Trump?
What gets me is that there were millions who couldn't be bothered to vote against Trump.
imho Biden/Harris shouldn't have had to do anything whatever. People should have just shown up and said 'no' to anotehr Trump term.
Absolutely, being normal should beat a flaming sociopath. But malignant narcissism and sociopathy have become virtues in USA, as the ultimate symbol of freedom. Because they only think of themselves.
Good thing most Americans can find an extra three grand in their couch cushions. /s
That's not for them. Vance left a tip for the couch when he finished.
No democrat should have had to do anything. just a few minutes of any Trump campaign speech should have been enough for him to lose most votes. Have his groupies ever actually listened to him?
Oh no no no. It's of course someone else's fault. Harris not good enough, blah blah blah. Definitely don't blame people too lazy or uninterested to vote. That's definitely not their fault and theyre definitely not complicit in everything going on.
Plenty of blame to go around
Take the upvote.
No sir, it's the democrats for Gaza. Or for biden. Or for not being sparkly enough. Or now, for not standing up to trump (when they are in the minority). They are the ones to blame for the situation, not trump or the morons who voted for him for a second term, or stayed at home. No sir, let's be mad at the democrats.
"People keep acting like a trump win will be the end of democracy, but thats just hyperbole. He wont end democracy."
-bad faith trolls
No he will not end democracy as such, it's in USA he will end it.
That’s what I said to myself when he won to calm myself down.
