Thing overall are not looking good for Kamala. Much weaker results than Biden in 2020. This is terrible...

Mail in ballots will make or break her. It's too close a race right now to call. 

[Bretticus]

She is toast unfortunately, the US want Trump

Yea, she's toast. This sucks... 

Mail in ballots are equal to or even more republican nationwide this election (as opposed to 2020). So they offer little help for democrats this time around. 

[Nikki]

I don't agree that she's toast cuz this thing about the percentage coming in isn't linear but it's not looking good

[Michael.]

At least he won’t be able to run again, but seriously what the actual fuck.

 

[whyme?]

She wasn't a strong candidate to begin with. I mean she did everything she could do, her campaign was very good. But she herself just lacked that charisma, or 'rock star' personality to bring massive amounts of people to vote for her (like Obama or bill Clinton). 

These next few years will be a massive shit show. If democrats lose the House, America will change forever.

I disagree. Americans don't want a female president. That's it. She had a ton of charisma.

That's why a lot of hillbillies slasher movies are made in middle America.

Just wait when he gets in the White House. He will try anything to stay in power.

100% agreed.

[Nikki]

Kamala is too much of a politician. why didn't they use Tim Walz more? why not just have him on rogan? what's with Harris' camp using Cheney's endorsement as some kind of gold medal? 

[Beastialg]

It looks like it will be a repeat of 2016. She needs to win Pennsylvania or is over for her.

[tuckeye]

I guess the US is just not ready for a woman president yet.

[AlvaroLiam]

The Dems need a rockstar. Someone who embodies change just like Obama and Trump did when they first appeared on the political scene.

Kamala is a great candidate. But the whole Biden thing took away a lot of time that could have been used on leaving a stronger impact on people, besides being Biden's replacement and “the best option against Trump”.

Whatever the results are, I think the democratic party needs a fresh new face for the next elections.

[Nikki]

 the Democratic Party should stop blaming the voters and look at themselves and stop pleasing their donors

[Jazzy Jan]

So disappointed in the voters in swing states of America. I really thought they would totally reject Trump after watching his crazy stupid antics at rallies and hateful vicious comments.  Sad to see people support him like this . 

[Shaun]

Sort of looking forward to completely disassociating from politics after this disaster of a night.

I am just hoping for the in mail votes as it skews more blue leaning.

Personally I think it just comes down to cost of living and inflation. The perception is that people had it easier under Trump. The Dems have been blamed for it though and one actually listens or believes the facts anymore so they were unable to change the narrative. Also immigration and the border played a big factor.

A second Trump presidency is going to be 10000% times worse than his first. It’s going to be a shit show.

Come to my house I'll cook you some pasta.

But I know what you mean, I just woke up...i'm in Brussels. I might just go back to bed.

The world is just fucked up.

The Trump 2016 economy was good because of Obama but a lot of people would not know that.

TRUMP wins PENNSYLVANIA... so that's it...

[MadFan]

This wasn't a win, it was a landslide. People overwhelmingly voted him back in. It's insane that it happened, but it happened. I cannot imagine what a government of Trump/Musk/RFK Jr. means for the US and the rest of the world. Fuck this.

[zephyralexxx]

The fact that most of the artists closed their comments section on social media, says a lot about americans and who they wanted to vote with.

That's what I actually admire about AMERICA, they don't let these HOLLYWOOD bigwigs dictate who they are going to vote for. No TAYLOR SWIFT, LADY GAGA, OPRAH WINFREY can help HARRIS tonight...

It is a nightmare. The 3 you mentioned - Trump, Musk and RFK are all dangerous and disgusting people. Add project 2025 to it and idiots like Marjorie Taylor Green and Vance etc and it is frightening.

I would never cast my vote guiding by an artist/public person opinions who live in a total parallel life. In my country, for example, this trend of public persons endorsing some political figure and sometimes manipulating people, doesn't exist. That's why, I am quite surprised that americans wanted someone else instead this time.

The fact that artists like Taylor Swift, Cher and Streisand closed their comment section proves a real act of cowardice. 

[Andra]

Truly the dumbest country in the world, this is so depressing.. there are no words.

[VictorMarques]

It's really sad to see minorities going with Trump. They will go after you this time around. Forget about civil rights for gay people at all. They has the house, senate and supreme court.

[Camacho]

Fuck this country and all of the dumb demented TRASH that infests it.
