US Presidential Election, Nov 5th 2024

[ChicagoBlue]

Well lets make it clearer , people are making out every female is disappointed with Trump winning. This is not the case though is it ? He still received a massive vote from women.

As for the democrats they have been destroyed all over the show. A VP declaring she will be a president for every American yet has no decency to even come and address her thousands of supporters that turned up. Speaks volumes

What do you tell them when the vote is close, but not official?

I’m going to go out on a limb and suggest you’re just not used to American elections and what does and does not happen at these things.

Should she have waited until about 6am, when the NYT called it, and thanked the 8 people still there for staying?

She had a campaign official come out and say there would be no speech tonight…because there was no speech to give, and I expect one to be given today.

However, your extrapolation is both petty and naive, but you do you when you’re Vice President and you’ve just lost a ridiculously consequential election!

Or, maybe she should have come out, tell the world that Trump is only the SECOND OLD WHITE MAN to have fucked the country this election cycle, because Biden fucked us first when he ran again, even after intimating he wouldn’t, and then created a situation where there was only one person who COULD really run, because they were the one with access to all the money!

You have answered your own question. If every Pm mentions it that is a pretty good indicator of its importance.

Can you explain its importance. I’ve never discerned any benefit to us.

In far more important news, should we do an America and vote Pellegrini back in for four more years to sort all our woes?

Wow i just heard he won. Nothing will change. The world keeps on turning.

Theres plenty of people high enough that serious decisions can be made if necessary! If she couldn’t face her own supporters how the hell do you expect her to face the general public for two months

Why does it bother you so much. Biden will stay as President, Harris will stay as Vice President, then they'll move on for the two twats that will take over.

Not worth getting yourself worked up about it.

It will keep turning, but I'm not so sure that nothing will change. The consequences of this result will be felt for decades imo.

A national ban is an “effective” ban.

It also means there aren’t enough doctors trained to do the procedure, which can be a lifesaving measure even when there is not a pregnancy. Even in blue New England, there are plenty of doctors who won’t do the procedure (completely acceptable). I had an abortion for fetal anomalies that were incompatible with a “normal” life and it took several days to find a doctor who would do the procedure (my doctor did not due to her religious beliefs). This was at one of the best hospitals in the world in a very blue state.

Won’t Biden stage an insurrection?

I think the democrats kind of took for granted women and ethnic minority voters. It was almost as if they thought surely because we have a black woman they’ll vote for harris.

Seems like women and ethnic minority males didn’t turn out at all for them. I was reading a stat that said a third of ethnic minority voters voted for trump

Resurrection more likely…
