I seriously feel like throwing up right now.
Heās up in Michigan, too. Stick a fork in the US, itās done.
Oh hey did anyone happen to catch the earlier Alex Jonesā chat-ala-mode with Ron Paul?
It was grand, all the funz. IIRC, as the wine doth take its toll wink wink nudge nudge hee-haaw, Paulās biggest self-claimed success was stemming the stinking tide of āpolitical correctnessā in America. SO GREAT the racists can be unguarded in everyday conversations. Itāll be great for all the get-togethers.
Jones and Paul did a fine job of talking past one another and my view of Paul as the boring/kooky old āscream-at-the-black-helicoptersā white dude does not appear to need editing.
IF the guy gets elected, itās still a big āifā whether or not he can keep the job for any length of time. I still have serious doubts if he can do it, even if elected.
oof. Hang in there. Deep breaths. Encalmitude. I think. JFC, donāt go down that rabbithole, USA.
You and me both.
Please donāt tell me weāre entering the darkest timelineā¦
Nope. Still a lot of counting to go. America is better than that, weāre not going to elect that fascist.
Good on you. Keep up the optimism. Letās all hang in there. It aināt over until the three out of ten sings.
At least the Democrats didnāt do anything really stupid like nominate Bernie Sanders as their candidate.
Ditto. Iām not even American. Took a look at the election results and had to grab some dimenhydrinate. I will lose my dinner and my faith in humanity if the stupidity trend continues.
Well, Iām not going to be keepinā yāall company. Time to finish up the bourbon and off to bed. Wake up and be surprised in the morning.
If it isnāt Hillary, I may call in sick and finish the Bourbon.
Fuck. Shit. Fuck, fuck fuck, fuck. Shit. Jesus fuck. Ugh. Shit.
This might be of interest to USians - while American networks apparently arenāt allowed to call states while theyāre still open, we filthy foreign barbarians can.
For example, this is the live result:
while this is the current prediction:
(the disclaimer on the page: Antony Green has called the US election race in states where either of the candidates enjoys a 10 per cent margin over their rival, even where polls are yet to close. Green can call states earlier in the count because US media can only predict the outcome in states where voting has closed. This is to avoid influencing voter turnout. The concern is voters will be discouraged if they feel they cannot affect the result.)
Four Horses of the Apocalypse stroll into a bar.
Bartender: Why the long face?
First Horse of the Apocalypse: trump has a potential chance to become POTUS. Now pour us a drink, ass.

EDIT:
Anyone else having flashbacks to Brexit?
Iām feeling painfully aware of the fact that I never truly prepared myself emotionally for the possibility of a Trump win.
