@NancyMace Are you going to inspect the genitals of everyone who wants to use the bathroom you pervert?

It’s ok Adam, even though you don’t have balls anymore, you can still use the men’s room.

@JabariBrisport Trump campaigned with billionaires and won massively. I wish your analysis was correct. I truly do. But the results say the opposite.
English
People can viscerally feel that our economic and political system is broken.
If Democrats keep refusing to label and fight the REAL enemy (the billionaire class), then Republicans will keep spreading the lie that immigrants and trans people are the enemy. And the lie will work.

This is worse than 2016. Fully informed, the majority of Americans chose fascism.

Harris ran a strong campaign. The bottom line is this. A great number of Americans wanted what Trump was selling. It’s as simple as that. Why is that so hard for people to believe? They want him.

If your explanation for why Harris lost is sexism, you have lost the plot. She ran an inept campaign, had no vision, and bet on neocon voters that didn't exist while spitting in the face of or ignoring reliable Dem voting blocks. Harris lost because she was a horrid candidate.

@Matthewtravis08 I was going to no matter the results but now I hate Elon Musk so much that it pains me to even see things on his website.

You can hate France all you want but they voted against female Trump twice and the US voted Trump in twice.

Thinking of my son and his friends/classmates, all newly/soon to be adults with disabilities who are supposed to rely on govt support to live their lives, and I just can't stop crying.
What happens to their funding, their safety net? What benefits get axed?

@Yadayada07 @PritzkerForPrez I'm angry enough right now to agree with you.
English
@PritzkerForPrez you want my hot take? I hope Dems lose because accelerationism. The American people need to suffer for their poor choices

@SammyObeid No one in the Democratic party will think that.
English
Honest question. If this loss for the Democrats is enough of a lesson to stop the party from being willfully complicit in Palestinian genocide, or even genocides in general - do you not consider that a good thing?

Counterpoint: They were never voting for Kamala Harris.

a voter in Arizona told MSNBC that he was on the fence but decided to vote for Trump when Harris didn't go on the Joe Rogan podcast

There are few people I loathe more than Elon Musk.

Yeah one bet I'm very comfortable making is that liberals aren't going to be buying a bunch of subscriptions again. They don't want another four years of "the walls are closing in" coverage - the walls didn't close in, can't fool 'em twice!

@Kentroyals5 @daveweigel Media gonna be shocked when D’s tune out and the clicks and eyeballs crater. This ain’t 2017. We are tired. Let the republicans own this and screw it all up while we watch.
