Donald Trump has been elected the 47th president of the United States, an extraordinary comeback for a former president who refused to accept defeat four years ago, sparked a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, was convicted of felony charges and survived two assassination attempts.

    Every time i think the US can’t get any more ridiculously observationally challenged, I’m taught otherwise…

    A billionaire, convicted felon, moron and over all most likely a damn pedo gets elected to be the top-clown of the clown-college.

    I’m sorry for every sane murican who has to endure that. And especially for everyone that is not “normal”…

      Oh he’s definitely a pedo. Creeping on his own daughter. Peeping on young girls in changing rooms. Epstein’s best friend.

      I agree with your message, but please try to avoid the r-slur. Its an ableist slur and quite triggering for many people, even if you mean it innocently.

      At least I can be super smug to everyone as the country burns around me…

      Enjoy paying 200% more for everything.

      Enjoy a national abortion ban.

      Enjoy having a president Vance in 6 months when Trump threatens the wrong Oligarch

      Enjoy having to grease a million hands to get the same government contracts you won on your own merits last year

      I could probably keep typing this list for the next 4 years and not run out.

        If i would have to live there (and i wouldn’t even wanna go on vacay there) I’d probably be equally cynical and bitter. Not much else left to do, other than seeing the comedy in the tragedy.
