In case you were wondering what the worst possible scenario looked like, seems we’re all going to find out in the next four years and beyond.

We’ll also see who the first ones to don the Hugo Boss uniforms will be (neoliberals, stop pushing, there’s enough for everyone) and who our real friends are.

Take care of each other and resist, resist, resist!

Let's hope his cognitive decline precludes his term lasting the full four years, although I dread to think how that would be dealt with by his coterie of billionaires/useful idiots. Space Karen would probably insert one of his exploding brain chips. Would anyone notice?

this is actually the bigger danger. it's not him that is the problem, he's just wildly flailing around and spewing nonsense. generally bad, but in the tactical sense.

the coterie around him have plans. that's much worse, they're gonna dismantle the democracy even further. we're looking at china and russia as really bad for, say, human rights etc. while US was going in the direction, and look like erdogan's turkey or orban's hungary, it's still a vastly better place, I believe. But once these guys implement their imigration policies and racial purges and give permissions to corporations to just shoot the worker activists and union leaders outright, it's gonna go waaaay worse.

I really hoped the sane half of the US will massively vote and get the opposite (dems in full power). I have no idea why they were like "I don't care", but in retrospect, I'm also not that surprised.

Although I am concerned and disappointed. This election will again have reverberations way beyond the borders of America.

@zlatko I've taken my eye off the results - are the GOP in control of both houses and the executive then? Shit. He's going to go full tilt for the Unitary thing (ie monarchy in all but name) isn't he. Project 25 was terrifying enough as it is, but Space Karen adds a whole other dimension of grim.

@zlatko Yep

@zlatko

I can't see the state of Palestine surviving this Trump presidency 😔, Ukraine and Taiwan also in a lot of trouble.
