U.S. Politics: The Biggest Trade in WNBA History

[Observer]

I cast my early vote last Thursday on Halloween voted Democratic and I hope she wins, so people get out them vote make your voices heard good luck God knows we're going to need it.

All I know is Trump is pissed off that the one poll he loved before is now saying he's not leading Iowa; a previously red state.

And after saying a very disturbing promise to protect women without their consent, he just wondered today if he could hit Michelle Obama because she hit(???) him.

I can’t wait for this election to be over. In my honest opinion, many people these days are just too extreme. This extremeness exists on both sides of the aisle. I wish we had more than two major parties. I understand that voting for a third party candidate is essentially throwing your vote out. I know my dad said (back in 2016) that he would rather throw his vote in the garbage than vote for garbage candidates. Even though I voted democrat, it’s getting to the point where I feel the same as my dad.

Thank you both for doing your civic duties by voting during one of the most important elections in history.

I also want to thank anyone who is volunteering for any of the countless Democratic campaigns out there, as their hard work means a lot and certainly makes the difference whether this country will be saved from fascism or be screwed for eternity. It might sound cliche, but they are the real life Justice League in my eyes, and I feel that all of them deserve some appreciation for their efforts, despite all of the criticism that I have lodged at some of these campaigns in the past.

What time do you guys expect Kamala Harris to concede? I'm expecting to happen either tonight or tomorrow morning.

Only if Trump manages to hold Pennsylvania. She needs that or she's out.

In other news, Bernie Moreno has defeated Sherrod Brown. It's official. The Senate will flip to Republican control.

I don't see Jon Tester surviving his race against Tim Sheehy under this environment, and Tammy Baldwin, Bob Casey, and Elissa Slotkin are in serious trouble because the Democrats are putting up a horrid performance in the Rust Belt. If all of these races go red, we are looking at a 55-45 Senate, which is a *serious* hole for the Democrats to get out of in 2026, even if it is a blue wave.

Meanwhile the Dems got their first major House flip. Brandon Williams, who successfully defended NY-22 (which Joe Biden won in 2020) after it was vacated by retiring Republican Rep. John Katko in 2022, lost his re-election bid to John Mannion.

This got called some time ago, but Texas just reelected the subhuman that is Ted Cruz to the Senate by a pretty large margin (double digits at this time of this post).

The large margin is really pissing me off and is fueling my already intense hate for Texas, and I seriously doubt that it flips in 2028, as the Democratic leadership in that state needs a major house cleaning due to their inability to learn from their past mistakes. It might happen in 2032, if *everything* goes right.

Holy crap, is it time to nuke the entire state of Pennsylvania from orbit. After looking at the downballot carnage, I feel that it is the only way to be sure that the rest of the country doesn't get dragged down with it.

Not only is Bob Casey poised to lose to Dave McCormick, but Matt Cartwright and Susan Wild have also lost their House re-election bids to literal pro-fascists.

Seriously, what the hell is wrong with that state?! I though the state was done with fascism after it voted for Biden in 2020 and John Fetterman in 2022.

The entire country is. The Democratic Party is dead and will very soon go the way of the Federalists.

This is a sad day for democracy.

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

Losing the popular vote as a double insult to injury. Actually worse than Hillary lol.

 

[RileyXY1]

I'm expecting 2026 to be an even worse Red wave than this. The Democrats are a dead party. They can't win anywhere aside from large urban areas along the coasts, and I believe they'll eventually turn into a regional third party while a new party rises to replace them, the same way that the Whigs replaced the Federalists and the Republicans replaced the Whigs.

 

[PrinceOfFacade]

I'm not even surprised Trump won. I'm just surprised at the amount of Democrat voters still trying to blame Jill Stein for Kamala losing. lol

The saddest part to all of this is that blue voters will NOT admit that Kamala is to blame for losing.

Yeah. Voters don't like having candidates forced upon them, which also happened in 2016 with Hillary Clinton. Honestly I think Biden should've dropped out much earlier so an actual primary could be held.

Holy crap, a bunch of Americans are either ignorant or just completely evil, huh? Trump? Again? Why? What's so compelling about him? I struggle to understand.

 

[UltimateNinja]

Welp there goes any hope left for the US.

That people would really elect that pathetic loser Trump again who caused multiple scandals after he got thrown out of the white house.

Tells a lot of the state of the country.
