Any News?

So? Has anybody heard anything? What should we expect? Are we going to be able to sleep tonight or not?

  1. I have no idea myself, all the websites I’ve seen are just posting gossip. Right now I’m chilling out by cooking a pot of vegetarian curry, drinking wine and watching Monterey Pop, that was a famous 60s rock festival in Monterey, California that featured rock legends Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and a lot of very cool 60s psychedelic music

  3. I think we should know fairly early when we get numbers for Pennsylvania and North Carolina.

    Also, if the Selzer poll numbers appear correct, then we can almost guarantee Trump is toast.

  7. I think I made the best decision ever: flying to Spain this evening, with ridiculously long layovers. You would love it.

    Good luck tonight. Thinking about all my American friends, regardless of their political views.

    Ol.

        1. Trump is doing better in PA than anybody expected but is it better enough? Of course, PA was stolen from us in 2020 but this time he’s improving even in mail-in ballots.

        2. Well, to be fair, we legalized *medical* mj a few years back (I voted for that one, even), and we’ve all had a good long time to see how that worked out.

          Parents generally not thrilled with the randos smoking weed at playgrounds where we take our kids. Only the stoners think they drive better while high. They could still maybe get it passed if somebody came out with an odorless version. But the modern strains everybody is using these days are so noxious that anybody who’s ever lived next door to a potsmoker or rented a house to one is now rabidly anti-legalization.

          I think for a lot of us, it’s like sex: we don’t mind what you’re doing, as long as you don’t do it in public! Unfortunately, pot smokers seem determined to make their gross personal habits everyone else’s business.

          1. What many people don’t get is that the marijuana grown in a lab with rocket scientists in 2024 is not the same product as the crappy weed hippies were smoking in Woodstock. This is far more potent and dangerous.

      2. Thank heavens! My vote wasn’t going to count on most things, but I showed up at the polls today specifically to vote against pot legalization and no-holds-barred abortion in the friggin’ state constitution (those are LEGISLATIVE issues, people, not constitutional rights).

  11. The idiot pundits on MSNBC (Rachel Maddow, Lawrence O’Donnell) are scratching their heads in dismayed confusion, because they’re amazed that in several states voters have chosen Trump but have simultaneously voted against draconian anti-abortion bills on the ballot.

    Obviously the far left pundits (the only kind allowed on MSNBC) believe that all the people who vote for Trump are one-dimensional troglodytes who think and act the same way.

    (I watch MSNBC sometimes when I need some comedy relief.)

      1. After 2000 I’m now afraid to go to sleep because we all remember what happened. I really don’t want to experience it twice.

        We are winning, right? Are we winning?

        1. That was insane. We all went to bed and woke up to news that just the right number of votes magically appeared in PA sometime in the night (and without any election supervision) to flip the election result.

          1. I’m still traumatized because my faith in democracy was wounded that night.

            But it really looks like the RNC is doing its job this time around and preventing this kind of thing from happening.

              3. “TRUMP HAS WON THE LARGEST SHARE OF THE JEWISH VOTE IN DECADES IN FLORIDA, ARIZONA, NEVADA

                Florida: 43% for Trump
                Arizona: 38% for Trump
                Nevada: 42% for Trump”

                Wow, they are learning!

              4. MSNBC informed the viewers that the problem is the Dems being too moderate, which supposedly depressed the D turnout.

                Yes, their problem is that they are too moderate. For sure. Yep.

  16. Some serios reckoning and soul searching is in order for Democrats. They’re having a total crash against reality. Their eco chamber bubbles have totally burst.

    How is it possible to run these unlikeable women twice. It’s like they never learn. At the least I expect them to cease with these DEI experiments and actually run likeable competent people next time.

      1. Even worse than that. Kamala never even won a Democratic convention. Clearly a DEI candidate they thought would win based solely on race and gender. In that regard she was even worse than Hilary.

        1. That’s two elections in a row the dems have done that. Didn’t they steal the nomination from Bernie last time around? Do their voters not get tired of being cut out of their own primaries?

  17. Looks like Republicans will have a huge mandate to fix all the shit they’ve been complaining about for the past years. Anybody here optimistic they’ll actually get anything done this time?

    1. Nope.

      Maybe this is the term where we finally find out just how massive the corporate buyout of congress really is.

      If we’re very lucky they’ll throw a few bones to the working class on their way to selling out the whole country to Pfizer.
