Well the electoral vote isn't terribly surprising, not what I wanted obviously, but well within expected outcomes. The popular vote is shaping up to be very different than I imagined.

The people have spoken, and I hope to be very wrong about what I expect to be the by product of that choice.

Yep. My only hope is that I’m as wrong about the consequences of a second Trump presidency as I was in my election prediction.

I feel bad for all the bad things that will happen to regular people.

I'll feel great when all the bad things happen to Trump voters. They deserve what they've got coming. damned idiots.

No doubt. I'm just saying I will take pleasure in knowing his fans are getting up the ass too. Bad people deserve bad outcomes.

One prediction: There’s no way in hell Trump deports 20,000,000 people. It’s a Herculean task and he is one of the laziest presidents ever to inhabit the oval.

Me too! I predict that even people like Ajax and ceeboo will eventually come to realize what a misfortune and disaster returning that misogynistic, intolerant bigoted and self-serving bastard to the Whitehouse will turn out to be. I fear that our country is in great danger of turning out to be more like North Korea than like the democratic republic it has heretofore been.

I'm sure you're right about that. For Trump to even attempt to do that will be economically disastrous in many ways, and not only for our country! I don't think Trump cares. He has, or soon will have, all the power and immunity from the worst consequences of his actions that he has always craved! He couldn't care less how many people will be hurt by his actions and policies, as long as he benefits from them.

I hope that even his fellow Republicans will eventually come to realize what a disaster he will prove to be and move to impeach him. He will prove to be the worst traitor and felon our country has ever had!

Don't hold your breath.

Republicans are just as corrupt as he is. They got their guy.
