    Hope the price of eggs was worth sacrificing all your civil liberties America

    You deserve everything you’re going to fucking get. That includes the women and Latinos that voted for him. Your faces will be eaten eventually and you will get zero sympathy from me.

      The amount of interviews I’ve seen where people say “yeah, he has some concerning talking points, but he promised a good economy” boil my fucking blood. The safety of half the population for the empty promise of jobs.

      Can’t wait til they somehow spin the failed economy against the Dems again in four years.

      Please don’t forget that neatly half of the country realizes he’s insane and is terrified. Not everyone deserves this. Tens of millions of us out there don’t want this.

      I hate this as a Canadian cause it’s gonna mess with our economy. But it will also stoke more support for the current conservative dickbag running to be prime minister. Also I don’t want more Americans moving here.

        This is going to have a chilling effect on democracy, and an energizing effect on fascism, worldwide. The movement to try to limit climate change is now dead and buried, worldwide. There is no part of the world that is safe from the effects of this.

        Also I don’t want more Americans moving here.

        I have a sad feeling the rest of the world feels the same way.

        I’m at the point where I want to leave these borders. I want to go somewhere relatively quiet and developed that has worker’s rights and isn’t some major turbulent player in the game of global domination.

        I’d respect my new home and integrate and do my best to get along with my new neighbors.

        But I’m pretty sure we’re stuck here to endure this madness.

        The rich have already departed though. So you’ll probably end up with less humble American refugees and more pompous real-estate moguls. And for that, I’m sorry.

      I will be shocked if the cost of living comes down at a notable rate when compared to other developed countries.

      Conservatives have never been better at managing the economy, yet people believe they are, for some reason ¯_(ツ)_/¯

      I heard a lot of commentary about the price of eggs tonight. I live in San Diego, America’s most expensive city. I’ve seen at some major chains a dozen eggs in the $6 - $9 range. Most stores I’ve seen them around $4 or $5 bucks a dozen. I also purchased a dozen yesterday for $2.79, and that was through Doordash even. So like, I call bullshit. Americans are dumb and too lazy to shop around. The gas station closest my house is $5.80 according to Google just now, but I filled up last night about 5 miles away with cash for $3.99. So infuriating that lack of effort or stupidity is likely what drove Trump back into office.
