Donald Trump has 267 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the White House and is leading in key races left to be called, including Michigan and Wisconsin.

Donald Trump has been elected the 47th president of the United States, an extraordinary comeback for a former president who refused to accept defeat four years ago, sparked a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, was convicted of felony charges and survived two assassination attempts.

    If a blowout this big occurred just because young leftists protested the genocide, it stands to reason that the democratic party made in error in judgement when they supplied more bombs to the genocide and scolded young leftists. They campaigned with Liz fucking Cheney and had Bill Clinton tell muslims in Michigan they deserve it. If you see this as anything other than a complete failure in leadership, you’re delusional.

      “Shut up about the genocide. It’s bad for our polling numbers.” That take is batshit insane. If you support a genocide and then can’t figure out why you lost an election, you’re hopeless.
