      I’d certainly be happier tomorrow! Hell I’d probably take me a vacation to celebrate!

        But like, it wouldn’t actually allow most people to take vacations. In fact, things would probably be roughly the same if Biden or Kamala had won. The current situation is structural, not just the fault of any single person.

          Yes it was bad before Lord Feltersnatch but he alone has blown the world into a crisis and there’s no denying that!

            Hardly, he’s just continued the same trajectory the US was already on.

            The next president will be worse, and the next after that, until the US collapses.

              Stop electing republicans then! This “All of them are the same is absolute bullshit!”

                The electoral system is designed to favor them. Trump only had a plurality at 49.9%, did you know that? And the first time he didn’t even have a plurality.

                Doesn’t matter. Red states where livestock outnumber voters get extra representation per capita because this country was founded as a settler-colony. A voter in Wyoming wields roughly 3.6 times more influence in presidential elections than a voter in California. The US is structurally undemocratic.
