[Gethelred]

The race is run, the winner declared!

For further discussion of the election:

USA - 2024 US Presidential Election: Trump vs Harris (pt II)

I will be keen to watch the handover on J6 I think, Will the Bidens attend unlike Trump? Will the crowd be the biggest in history, Will there be a magical Mystery victory tour and rallies like 2016, Will he reduce his golf games and stop heading North in the Summer or home to Fl in the winter...

Harris needed more than just colour and gender to appeal to the public. She is about as cookie-cutter as they come.

Don't necessarily disagree with that. But I still want to know how Trump—with his history—appeals to that demographic.

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

Oh well my last hope is Kari Lake loses in AZ.

She will lose

 

[CarnTheScray]

Project 2025 here we come.

Hello American dental bills.

 

[Sir_Loin]

Crazy how much Sherrod Brown got smoked in Ohio. Thought he'd probably lose but it would be under 1pt.

That’s what’s so concerning

 

[tigland]

So when i wake up tomorrow there will be no Ukraine anymore and all other wars will be over? That was a day 1 promise

 

[raskolnikov]

America has been bordering on fascism for a long time with their flag-waving, allegiance-pleading, "Greatest country on earth" rhetoric. Looks like the chickens are coming home to roost.

 

[ClarkeM]

Makes attending the World Cup (2026) or the Olympics (2028) a little less appealing if Trump is in.

Great point, far out.

 

[aCunningPlan]

NORTH CAROLINA officially goes for Trump. The first battleground state has been called.

 

[CarmenSandiego]

Trump getting shot,surviving and then revelling in it and using it to his advantage was the end for Kamala

I initially thought the same but seemed people moved on quick & Harris got momentum.

I thought it was over when the busted old celebrity endorsements started coming in thick & fast at the start of last week. Reeked of 2016 and that shit barely works with Democrats anymore.

 

[Sir_Loin]

I do hope that if it becomes inevitable that Harris concedes and there is a normal transfer of power.

Nah just hang on and stay in. Supreme Court said it’s ok

 

[FreoRicci]

I do hope that if it becomes inevitable that Harris concedes and there is a normal transfer of power.

Just like Trump 2020? Oh Wait.

America is just trash these days. Homelessness through the roof, no Healthcare.

Might as well be communism at this point

 

[beez]

That’s what’s so concerning

I wouldn't bet against Slotkin, Baldwin and Casey all losing too. Crazy.

 

[CarnTheScray]

Or just go and enjoy your holiday?

How could you when fentanyl is rampant on their streets?

Biden is still President for a couple of months...

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

The Western world has beccome self-interested, greedy , anti-science pile of crap.

 

[Elixuh]

Trump wants to start make speeches and is in celebration mode. We’re on.

Bunch of dumb clucks they are.

He should launch the nukes and get things over with

 

[Richmond Flats]

Sounds like America is sick to death of the woke BS being shoved down their throats. This is an important moment in history.

 

[celestial]

Trump, modi, putin,xi jinping. Probably the 4 most powerful leaders in the world, all sharing a lot of similar traits. There is a pattern emerging in the type of leaders people are electing now.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Harris needed more than just colour and gender to appeal to the public. She is about as cookie-cutter as they come.

While this is true, cookie-cutter should be enough to win elections against someone with that many court cases against him, plus a history of disrespecting women and military personnel (and economic policies that massively favour the already wealthy, but people everywhere have a limited grasp of economics despite claiming the economy is important to them, so let's let that slide). It says something about the American people that so many of them think a person like that is better than a cookie-cutter candidate, and that several of them have been convinced such a generic candidate is actually a dangerous Marxist.

 

[Hank Scorpion]

I wouldn't bet against Slotkin, Baldwin and Casey all losing too. Crazy.

They're going to led by enough to get whatever MAGA stuff they want through. No McCain, Collins/Murkowski won't be enough.

ACA is gone. Abortion ban enacted. Whatever insane shit they put in a budget.

 

[Carn The Berries]

USA is gonne be fun to visit in Feb 2026

Like my 2018 trip I'm seriously gonna have to keep my mouth shut or change the topic or play dumb

Start saving now... AUD has tanked by 1.5 cents today... Market is pricing in the anticipated impact of "Tariff Trump"

 

[PolePiastri]

2024 the death of wokism. First the divisive Voice referendum was turned down, and now Biden/Harris and their war mongering corrupt deep state get the middle finger.

What a terrific result.

What do you think will happen exactly? Will trans people cease to exist? Will everyone take up Christianity en masse?
