    This would be the most hilarious outcome possible that’s within the realm of reasonable. Dems finally achieve the decades-long pipe dream of turning Texas blue, but lose the rest of the Southwest and key rust belt states resulting in an electoral college win for Trump. Harris, of course, wins the popular vote by an even bigger margin than in 2000 or 2016.

    No matter the result, I will have to stare into the eyes of all my neighbors with the knowledge that they voted for genocide and hold back my bile and venom for their cowardice and try to build a better world with these satanic compradors.

      If it's any consolation, Kamala finally acknowledged what's going on in Gaza and dropped (mostly) reduced the israel defending itself framing at her rally in MI yesterday to state in no uncertain terms that she would put an end to palestinian suffering. Still too little too late for me to take her very seriously but the pressure appears to be working even with the libs doing everything they can to suppress it.

          Oh absolutely, only time will tell if she takes actual action and I have all the doubts in the world especially as long as Biden is in charge. This should have come months sooner, not two days before the election.

          All that said, it's a notable change in rhetoric and it's a positive one which would have never happened if they weren't losing votes over it, if Trump weren't also trying to outflank her with anti-war/pro-arab rhetoric in Michigan. I'm choosing to lean optimistic that my liberal friends and family who vote for her are just stupid and ideologically self-defeating, not evil, and there's enough of us against the genocide that it's a real threat to their power.

        she would put an end to palestinian suffering.

        to be fair, Netanyahu also wants to end Palestinian suffering (permanently!) – it is the manner and speed with which it is ended that is at issue

        agony-deep

        did she describe the manner and speed with which she would end their suffering?

            well, I skipped to 39:00 and made it to about 41:00.

            that's the same shit everyone has been saying for decades. idk what else to say about it. it's surprising to me that you hear anything but empty platitudes in those two minutes.

            what circumstances do you expect to be changed by her election? she's already in the White House, democrats are at the helm of this genocide, and they say if we vote for them even harder this time, they pinky promise to work really hard to figure something out – but why is that? what will change once they win again? why do you believe them?

              All I'm saying is it's a positive change from what she's been saying. Up to now she hasn't even acknowledged the Palestinian side of it. I'm not for her and I'm not voting for her, I'm just slightly less disgusted by her. She was perfectly content before to tell arab voters to go fuck themselves and completely avoid the subject.

              The reason I shared the video itself was to not overstate the change here.

    Harris wins, Trump get shot, as a show of unity and reconcilation she invites Vance as her VP. Next election he runs as a Democrat with Richard Spencer as VP.

    Republicans barely take it in a dubious 2000 Florida style situation while the Democrats go full ballistic on lawsuits against the Green party because they got like 3% of the vote in a different, irrelevant, state.

        Some guy had a squirrel named peanut and used it to advertise his porn making it famous.

        New York took and put down the squirrel.

        People like Elon/MAGA crowd and MoistCritical types lost their minds over it for some reason so it took over internet discourse for a bit in those circles.

          used it to advertise his porn

          this very interesting tidbit was left out of everything I read earlier today

          now I'm wondering how the squirrel helped advertise. suggestively-shot videos of it gobbling nuts?? 😂

            From what I've seen, him playing with the squirrel with some very convenient camera work, and while he's clearly wearing some very supportive underwear.

    Stein wins New Hampshire for no reason, Trump wins the popular vote loses the electoral college, the supreme court declares the college unconstitutional and hands Trump the presidency

    Widespread violence erupts over alleged fraud and voter intimidation. guaido becomes interim president in exile while biden-troll topples Kamala and takes power back to reign as president for life.

    Six months later he dies.

    I also think the Lib Dems are going to do better than expected.
