There is nothing that God, man, or the Constitution can do about the fact that we elected Trump, because we did it to ourselves.

Summary

Donald Trump’s decisive victory in the 2024 election leaves no room for ambiguity or an “asterisk” in his legitimacy, as he won both the popular vote and the Electoral College.

This outcome represents a clear mandate from American voters, who knowingly chose Trump’s policies and approach.

The anticipated results include pardons for January 6 participants, attacks on the press, and an administration filled with controversial figures.

By voting for Trump, Americans prioritized divisive rhetoric over democratic values, accepting the resulting turmoil.

    There’s no blaming the Russians this time around. There’s no blaming media malpractice. There’s still some blame to attribute to voter suppression, but majorities elect the people who suppress the votes…

    what a stupid fucking article. why carve out exceptions for shit you don’t understand and then double down on the politico.

    fuck i hate journalists.

      Christ - because it’s not as though the media contributes massively to voter suppression.

      Journalistic malpractice is one of the main causes - if not the main cause of this result.
