I and everyone I know voted weeks ago. Thank you WA State for switching to mail-in voting. This morning I had two thoughts: 1. I always get my hopes up for elections. And I am always crushed by the results. My fellow Americans are truly a vile bunch of shitbags, that are so easily manipulated by the conservative hate machine. 2. I have this weird thought that pops in that hopes Trump wins. Because the only way to exterminate him and his ilk is for them to continue to fail, colossally, so there can be no doubt that everything Republicans do is shit, and their vision of how things should work is doomed to failure. But that is gonna suck for everyone I love. So I guess we gotta fight the long fight, and meet Y'all Qaida in the streets...
Following that train of thought, a horrible part of me hoped Trump would win because no matter what Biden does, without taking the Senate, he will not accomplish a thing. He will be blocked at every turn. In 4 years the right will be complaining how useless he has been, ignoring the fact that they were the ones holding him back. If Trump won, the shit show would continue, then maybe, just maybe, the right will see how little they accomplished with the Senate and the Presidency and the SCOTUS in their hands. But, I know that the rabid right-wingers will still find a way to blame the left for their failure. I can only hope that by midterms people will start to wise up.
Hey, WA generally looks good in federal + state elections except we're totally going to repeal taxes until we force ourselves into a state income tax, which will be hilarious and piss everybody off.
