It appears Trump is going to be the next president of US. I'm not sure such a thread is needed in the first place, but here goes.

Feeling anxious? Desperate? Got the expected result?

What do you think went wrong? What do you think went right? What do you think the future holds?

I think the stock market will probably crash at some point during the Trump admin.

I think the tariffs will cause a massive rise in prices.

I think the mass deportation scheme will end in death camps.

I think those death camps will grow to include lgbtq+ people.

I just keep stopping and crying.

Saddens me that the stock market is the first thing on your list.

We're here for you though for the rest of it.

It's only at the top because that's what every person I know that voted for him cited as the reason. His economics.

I'm gay. I know I'll end up in a camp.

They didn't vote because of the stock market. The stock market has been doing great. They voted because things are expensive and they are poor.
