  I wish I knew someone who was disappointed. The only two people in my life that aren’t Trumpers are my daughter and her fiance. Everyone else thinks that gas will got back to $1/gallon and food prices will return to pre Covid levels on Jan 21.

    Time to start beating your wide, she’s actively asking for it.

    I think it’s revealing that apparently as long as gas and eggs are okay, the country falling completely apart is secondary.

      Gas is the big one. I don’t hear as much complaining about food where I am.

        The whole thing is going to look fucking stupid once EVs take off. Although I bet Trump will do everything to slow that once elected (even with Musk in his ear).

    Sheeeesh, sorry to hear you’re living deep in the red. Proud of my state for being a spot of blue in a sea of red, but hot damn that election map was bleak.

    It’s so wild how absolutely bonkers the political climate has become just in my lifetime. There was some real optimism when I got to vote for Obama as an 18 year old. Would’ve never seen all this coming…

      The thing is we had Obama and dem control of the legislature and we still didn’t get universal healthcare, or even basic shit like minimum wage indexed to inflation. It’s no wonder low-information voters think democrats suck at “the economy”.

      Unfortunately, all this is pretty much a backlash to that event.

    What will they think when those things don’t happen? Some conspiracy shit?
