Where are you? We miss you! Time to dig back in.
“The Washington Post reported that Aid Access, one of the largest suppliers of abortion pills by mail in the U.S., said it received 10,000 requests the day after Trump’s win was called, in contrast to the 600-odd requests on a typical day.” https://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/amp/shows/top-stories/blog/rcna179849

“At a news conference in Phoenix late Monday night, Mr. Gallego, with tears in his eyes, referred to his humble roots.

‘For the kids sleeping on the floor, dreaming about a better, better America and a better, better future, this victory is for you,’ he said.”

It is demoralizing to see that a failed President now as a convicted criminal is suddenly & against the odds re-elected

There was no fraud, the effect was in all districts, all states, look at blue states like Virginia and NJ. There was no electoral college issue. Our side did not show up to vote

I know we are all in shock

What happened? Turnout. Our voters did not turn out

2020 was a huge surge election. Trump matched his 2020 turnout

But our voters did not show up, we lost 1 in 10 voters from 2020 level

Turnout is down maybe 4%. In low turnout elections we lose up and down the ticket

This is absurd. Trump is a convicted felon. He was kicked out of the White House with 7 million votes against him. And now he is getting well over 50% of the national vote?

It is bizarre. I have no words. I cannot explain how this happened. Every sign Trump himself gave, was that he felt he'd lost

Maga won. Elmo won. Murdoch won. Peter Thiel won. Fuckerberg won. Putin won. Netanyahu won. RFK Jr the brain worm dude won
