It appears Trump is going to be the next president of US. I'm not sure such a thread is needed in the first place, but here goes.

Feeling anxious? Desperate? Got the expected result?

What do you think went wrong? What do you think went right? What do you think the future holds?

My state went for harris as i said it would. Ive said repeatedly harris' campaign was horrible due to its lack of populist labor policies etc. but yes, the genocide and complete shutdown of student protestors was a massive issue.

I didnt bury my head in the sand. Now what are you going to be doing these next 4 years to fix this? I know what ill be doing.

There was no constructive alternative to offer. Trying to brow beat people to harris wouldn't work and the dunces for harris wouldn't hear anything. Not even an ask to stop a fucking genocide. Get it now? People wouldn't even hear a simple call to stop fucking mass murdering people. Never mind anything more nuanced.
