You know what, my countrymen deserve this. Make it happen. I back it! The motherfuckers in Loudon and Dallas need to reap what they sow.

An ex-Muslim colleague of mine that I had blogged about a few days ago in California gleefully texted me about Trump win this morning and that we should connect this evening. He’s been pinging me about helping him get a job. I was like I am not in a mental space to talk after outcome and he was like oh you voted Kamala? Needless to say no chatting with him is happening any time soon.

Sorry I am crying and I want to go back home to India so much today.

How much did Gaza impact this election will be something to look for. I wish Biden grew a pair when dealing with Israel. His weakest points for me was when Netanyahu just played him around like a puppy and Biden did… nothing. Not only did it make look Biden and America stupid and weak, but it also said a lot to people out here that Biden/Harris didnt care about the genocide happening there. They were punished for it I am sure.

So i guess Covid ultimately didnt do its job?

Still not reconciling the fact that he got LESS votes than 2020 and still managed to win the popular vote by 6 million votes. Where the fuck did those 18 million people go? They just sat… out?

The difference between white men and white women is white men will vote for their interests while white women will consistently vote against their interests. Yet again, white women voted in majority for Trump. As I said, this is not a voting bloc you can count on, ever.

I am still in disbelief that 20 million people simply didnt vote. Astounding.

I can’t wait for women’s march next year where everyone will show up way more enthusiastically to protest in DC than last night coz how else will you make your viral tiktok reels?

This.

Assuming elections are still around in 2028, if democrats choose to nominate Pete or Newsom, they will lose again. The electorate is telling us they are not the kind of people they relate to. You know who could win 2028 (again, assuming elections and democracy are around?): John Fetterman. I am not a big fan of him, but he is the most Trumpian democrat there is who says it as it is.

How can a candidate that raised more than a billion dollars in campaign lose so thoroughly? How could this campaign with literally everything at their disposal not see something like this coming? How can a campaign with one of the strongest GOTV efforts on the ground do so badly almost everywhere, even in places they won? To me it’s an indication of a party/campaign that is completely out of touch with the common man.

A part of me now wishes Trump had won 2020 also; perhaps we might have been at the tail end of a 8 year horrible nightmare ready to turn the page instead of going back into it again, and this time it promises to be even worse. Maybe we should have endured through it and we might have seen last of him? Wishful thinking.

Looking ahead though can Sotomayor fucking retire so Biden can get one young blood in before she dies and opens up yet another spot for Trump to fill? I am dead serious she needs to do it to save whatever can be saved at this point.

Wrote this 4 years ago, and sadly I am proven right again :(

Anyway I should be glad that I do have a place in India to go back home to if ever - millions don’t even have that option. Small mercies I am from India and in the majority there (yay Brahmin Hindu!).

Anyway since I am awake I just need to let it out: democrats won’t win unless they elect good white guys at the top. Obama was a deviation and a pleasant one at that, but the country is not ready yet for an inclusive progressive coalition just yet (may never be). I honestly don’t think it’s their strength at all - I have argued before republicans look far more inclusive than democrats do (even if they attract the worst of them).

Obviously I haven’t slept the night at all and my heart is still racing. I did not want to say it out lest it came true but the writing was on the wall a month ago. I just did not want to believe it is all. As I have said before there is no path for this country for a blue and red America to exist together.

This this this this this this. The single worst pick and genesis of today can absolutely be traced back to garland.

Man I miss my Indian citizenship…
