I can't imagine the cognitive dissonance these fascists are going to deal with.

Unfortunately for the majority of them it won't be a problem. He'll perform exactly as desired "owning the libtards" and getting rid of "the immigrants". I wish I had a more optimistic outlook on the next 4yr but frankly we already know how it will go from his last term. At least to an extent.

The "Don't blame us we didn't vote for him" crowd immediately turned around and a day later switched to "It doesn't matter if you voted for him, he's still your president" and didn't miss a step. They are fuckin mental contortionists.

What?

Like I'm actually confused, what?

I'm not exactly sure either but the "not my president" thing seems to be primarily but not exclusively used by conservatives when they're not in power.

But lack of progressive messaging, the genocide, and doubling down on neo liberal policies actively suppressed the vote. I blame the people who stayed home, but the blame for them doing so is exclusively on Joe Biden who will be remembered as the president who enabled Trump the second term and everything that that enables.

Probably the end of democracy in the US and likely a form of techno-monarchy and neo-feudalism.

Time to study the French Revolution comrades!

In spite of themselves. Despair is a useless emotion.
