Yea this:

"Have an open mind, don't be stubborn and bitter. Trump can unify this country. Now let's make America great again"

Was hypocrisy at it's best ( at it's worst?? ) and it was too much for me - not today.
He can think it over and give it another try.

not only does Trump lack the capacity to Unify, he absolutely doesn't want to. He thrives in chaos and hatred and vitriol. Its all he has. He has no Policy to stand on, he has no values he can live by. All he has are things that are 100% not unifying, by there very nature.

The unity we can preserve, defend, maintain and hopefully eventually regrow will only - can only - be from the bottom up now. It won't come from the top.

And it will be incumbent on those of us who are relatively more (than less) safe from the shit to drive that unity. That means giving to points of pain, speaking out despite social costs, and resisting the urge to stop your worries at the wall of your house.

Great advice Fish. There will be collosal need and suffering

BUD can be pretty vocal.
I'd put the odds on us having to deal with some physical confrontation in a public space at 2/1 in the next 4 years.

just putting this here cuz I at least found it interesting

Mrs. Fish also.

It's interesting, the guys in our friend groups are pretty chill about this stuff. Everyone knows where everyone stands, and leaves each other alone.

The women...they have Game of Thrones-style drama over their differences. It would not surprise me at all if this leads to a fairly dramatic shift in what Mrs. Fish does, socially.

I think that, in a nutshell, describes adult friendships (political and otherwise) and the difference between the genders.

dumb, as per norm

misogyny won the day

"Dumb" or not, he speaks for the majority of American voters.
"Dumb" to me is/was not listening to them, or discounting them and what they said, and doing nothing more about it than calling them "dumb".

Also, if I were to be blunt and harsh, I would add - "dumb" was your predicting a Harris "landslide".

that’s not what i predicted, so kindly fuck off and eat a dick

Ok.

i said early on that Harris may end up with relative landslide of a win

team trump, rather than stopping the bleeding, seems to be only opening it wider. it’s hard to see how they aren’t shedding votes weekly, if not daily

"when Harris thumps trump in a relative landslide."

"being the operative wordS".

Sorry you took such offense to my pointing it out - and saying it was a "dumb" prediction.
It's really not such a big deal. To me.

it must’ve been a big deal to you, hence this current exchange

i also said numerous times that Kamala would still be a president for psych (despite his “issues”). as with the sentence you just quoted, those weren’t so much predictions as they were half-hearted efforts to troll

was it dumb to assume this country is smarter than it is? maybe

was it dumb to assume women would vote in their and their daughters’ self-interests? maybe

was it dumb to assume reasonable people would see eye-to-eye about randi’s dumbassery? obviously

Gutter is a sophist.

Emanuel Macron:

“Congratulations, President @realDonaldTrump. Ready to work together as we did for four years. With your convictions and mine. With respect and ambition. For more peace and prosperity.”

Right. I saw it too.
Yet, we had many intelligent people (I sincerely mean it) on here who all but insisted/assured/guaranteed us that Harris would win.
The million dollar question is..... Why? Why did you, and I, and randy, and a couple others on here, see it, but smart people (not just on here but all across the country and world) didn't?

bullshit narrative

71 million people voted for Harris. those aren’t your average Americans?

this wasn’t some landslide mandate. anyone saying it is, is a liar

I just re-read JK's post. My guess is he doesn't realize the major mistake he made. At least I hope it was a mistake. For his sake.

I agree with you that many "average" Americans voted for Harris.
The BIG problem was that more "average" Americans voted for Trump.
The BIGGEST problem to me is - what pdub alluded to. Trump is a piece of shit, and the "average" American who voted for Trump didn't care enough that he's a piece of shit to not vote for him. Why?
