Summary

This victory makes Trump the first U.S. president to serve non-consecutive terms since Grover Cleveland and the first with a criminal conviction to hold office.

Democrats were shocked by the loss, particularly as exit polls revealed significant shifts among key demographics: Latino men favored Trump by 10 points, and more voters identified as independents or unaffiliated.

The economy was the top priority for Trump supporters, while Harris voters emphasized democracy and abortion rights.

The election also showed increased dissatisfaction with the country’s direction, as 72% of voters expressed anger or frustration.

    I’m stating to see the perspective of Ye Wenjie in 3 Body Problem when she effectively tells the aliens to come destroy humanity, because we’ve fucked it up.

      Same. I’m so distraught that I am considering industrial sabotage just to potentially buy the future a few more minutes. Or maybe just to feel like for once I have some control over what happens in my life instead of some dickhead with way too much money that I’ve never met.
