Someone said "well, he isn't likely to be alive his whole term due to his age and health.." but then we get Vance. And that's just as bad. Worse. As he is younger, can go 8 full years still. There is no silver lining. America is well and truly fucked, and they've no one but themselves to blame.

Vance is saner and much smarter than Trump, but he's also meaner and more regressive. I fear for what happens when Trump gets the 25th amendment invoked on him, assuming he doesn't die first.

I'd hoped Harris might win. I knew it was close, but I also thought people would be more put off by how truly horrible Trump is and because they've seen that he doesn't do the job. But too many were busy listening to his lies even when they should have known better. :(
