I get it, 50% residents of one of the most influential countries on earth will be very upset, with a lot of geopolitic consequences.

But for some, we cant change the outcome in anyway, I hate the way content even on the Fediverse becomes. Yes its important but man. I was all into 2016 elections but it doesnt really change anything anyway. Americans go vote and all, though.

I just wanna talk about kernels and factorio, man

Tomorrow is the last day to vote. I imagine all the talk won't be over until noon January 20th with the transfer of power to the new administration.

So what I'm trying to say is only a couple more months.

Then it's time to start focusing on midterm elections.

The majority of the talk will be over by the time the election is called. At least, the majority of it on here.

I think you are underestimating the chaos trump's horde has planned. Unless it's an absolute blowout for Kamala (and likely even some then), the close of the polls on Tuesday is just act 1.

Hah! It's adorable that you think it will ever stop! The next set of congressional midterms is only two years away. They're already ramping up the rhetoric for those!
