27. There's definitely a part of me that feels like a sucker

Mon Dec 9, 2024, 02:47 PM

Dec 9

I was 100% wrong about literally everything for the last 4 years...

I'd screamed to my friends and relatives Trump had a higher chance of being in prison than ever seeing the White House again....

Then I argued that the law would prohibit him from ever running again...

Then I argued that the Republican Party itself would stop him from running...

Then I argued that there was no way Biden would drop out... (One thing I WAS right about was the media dropping the "age and mental decline" discussion the second Biden dropped out instead of turning their focus on Donnie's age and senility)

After that I argued Harris wouldn't be the nominee...

And after seeing all the enthusiasm and donations and endorsements and excitement and new voter registration I argued that there was no way Harris would lose to a convicted Nazi madman criminal who couldn't even speak coherently...

So I don't even know what's real anymore...
