It feels haunting. Like one of those videos a ship going over a huge wave in a storm and you just know it’s going to capsize once it comes back down.

Terrified but soothed myself by cashing out my Tesla stocks & donating it to Planned Parenthood and ACLU. Then I deregistered all Amazon devices and sold them back to Amazon and used the credits to buy a bunch of books on tyranny, oligarchy, American history & political activism. I stuck the “Never Gonna Give You Up” Spotify code in the box because rickrolling felt appropriate. I’ll delete my Amazon account when all the books arrive later in the week. That did WONDERS for my mental health today.

Probably nothing. They never do and it's so devastating that they're just letting the country fall.

That is such bs ! He said it loud and proud and knew nothing could happen to him. I’m horrified of this monster and what he will do in 4 plus years.

Nothing. He has no rules. He has no laws. No one will act. No one will hold him accountable. There will be no consequences. We really have to stop yelling about this and that he did wrong. It’s futile. We are running out of energy already. I plan to save it for when there is real action to take not just outrage.

He also commented how he was sad he wasn't gonna be president for the LA Olympics or the World Cup here in the US "but then they rigged the election and I won, so now I'm going to be your president for the Olympics." https://www.c-span.org/clip/public-affairs-event/user-clip-trump-admits-they-rigged-the-election/5150039

How can Biden ride in the car with him? Why after his speech telling us what’s to come is he not trying to stop him. Maybe he’s got a poisoned McMuffin waiting for him. One can only hope

Has anyone seen the footage from the Trump rally yesterday where he says that he won because the election was rigged?

MyraMe61's avatar

I did see that and thought to myself, the orange menace is laying his cards on the table but nothing will happen. That saying of what's done in the dark will come to light? We'll, they're doing it IN the light! NOT even trying to hide it. He knows nothing will happen to him as a result. He's going to be running his company and his scams right out of the White house as President!! I'm so disheartened by ALL of it.
