    It was not a legitimate election. Americans didn’t fail anything beyond letting a dictator be born due to their own lack of political education. But they did not vote for this in reality.

      Americans wholeheartedly failed by sitting on the fence instead of letting a woman win.

      90 million people didn’t vote, more than either candidate got. The winner of the election had 31% of the vote.

      We “quiet quit” democracy, if anything.

        You’re stating stats from a falsified election as if there’s any validity to them and it scares me

          You’re holding onto hope that something will be done about it and it saddens me. It’s over. They won and they get to write history for the next 4 years. All we can do is rally and try not to let happen again.

            This is a load of bs. I’m not holding on to hope, I just won’t lie about what happened which saying Trump won is. You’re holding on to hope there will BE more elections- this saddens me.

              Whelp until a court says that’s what happened, he won. There is absolute fuck all you can do to change that reality so live in it.

              And kindly fuck off with the “there won’t be anymore elections.” If he keeps shitting the bed for the next 3 1/2 years as well as he has been, we’re gonna see a blue wave that rivals Reagan. Republicans are being cursed out at their town halls. Some are even swearing off reelection so they can’t be scared by the threat of a primary.

              The cracks are forming, they just don’t involve the rolling heads and firing squads everyone claims they want to see.
