Are Trump supporters going to gloat?

Question

I promised that I would not.

TadCurious · Accepted Answer

After all of the obnoxious and puerile posts from that @StillAlive guy it's tempting to gloat. But it's much classier not to.

seeyounexttuesday · Accepted Answer

Nope. Trump has a huge task ahead of him. Plus the left will be trying to kill him.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

No, I am not gloating, but I am silently thankful that the republic has been saved!

WhiteSteve · Answer

Trump supporters are predictably gloating

Lliam · Answer

I won't. But I won't sympathize with the Dems and libs either.

Before the victory, I said that I looked forward to seeing TDS effected Dems and libs heads explode. That still gives me joy because their fear and hatred is so irrational and over the top.

I have 1960s-70s liberal values and most of my friends up to 2016 were liberals. I marched in support of civil rights and gay marriage. I support the right to abortion. But I am also a strong supporter of free speech, second amendment rights, and liberty. I am also opposed to U. S. imperialistic aggression.

As my liberal friends became more and more radicalized, they began to see me as a conservative. In 2016, I didn't vote for either Hillary or Trump but was relieved when Hillary lost. I couldn't understand how anyone could support her. I will refrain from my description of her here.

I was never a Trump fan.

Then the pandemic scam of 2020 arrived. My liberal friends lost their minds. Those who believed in "my body, my choice" suddenly believed in mandatory masking, business closures, lock downs and vaccines. When I refused, they called my wife and me an "antivaxers" and acted like we were granny killers.

People with whom I had been best friends for over 15 years suddenly acted like I was an enemy of mankind. They ostracized me over politics. They did so because of my views on covid and jabs, but also because I wasn't "liberal" enough. I wasn't a loyal member of the club. I thought too independently and didn't walk in lock step with the Democratic party. I developed reasoned opinions on individual issues rather than adhering to party partisanship. I wasn't part of the herd or the hive mind.

I have no desire to reconnect with any of those people. They are dead to me. And I honestly take joy in the thought that they are anguished over this election because I feel like their brains were corrupted by the willing and eager consumption of liberal media propaganda.

But I'm not going to antagonize them or anyone else. To do so would serve no constructive purpose.

I don't dislike people because of their political opinions. People should be allowed to disagree. I am not an ideologue. I have an open mind and welcome respectful discussion and debate. My opinions are not carved in stone.

I dislike Dems and woke libs because they are self-righteous, zealous, inflamed by fear and hatred, and they spread divisiveness. They believe in using force to impose their will on others. That is not my idea of liberalism.

I acknowledge that Republicans are not much better in many respects, especially on the issue of contraception and abortion.

BCRanger10 · Answer

I personally will not. I also don't know if I'd call myself a "Trump supporter", per se. More just very, very, very, very, VERY anti-Harris.

But no. I'll make harsh assessments of Kamala Harris, her campaign, her worldviews and policies. But I'm not going to gloat about anything. A lot of the people who voted for her think that guys like me are bigoted, sexist, racist, regressive, Christo-Facsists and therefore, their enemy. Not only that, but the enemy of America. I'd much rather have conversations with them and try to help them to understand someone like me - a practicing Christian, a husband, a father - and what I want, how I see and think about things, and above all, why.

I'll admit, I've gone off the rails in the past here. There have been plenty of times that I've hit "submit" and thought afterwards "Did I really have to say that?" So this is me owning that and saying that I'm happy to discuss my thoughts and feelings about last night and the coming weeks with anyone who wants to.

sawno · Answer

Yes, i'm mixed about that. there's a bunch of evil democrat supporters and there's some of them on this site to. They will purposefully delete the right info, try to mislead others and wish trump dead. To all of you, this is karma, suck it, you lost, keep seething.

But then there is the majority of people who aren't bad people. Often those are mislead and if they believed the lies and fearmongering and are now affraid. So I always approach in good faith after winning an election and try to calm them down. The evil ones who try to destroy democracy, ruin the youth, etc lied to you and made it seem like Trump will now begin to end democracy and will take your rights away. But that won't happen, Trump is not a bad man he's just a man with a controversial style. He will leave democracy intact and hopefully ensure vote tampering isn't possible anymore trough paper ballots and in person voting. He won't take your rights away since he repeatedly said he likes abortion being a state issue, don't agree with your state? Move to one you are with and your good. I can keep going like that.

So fear not, Trump isn't going to turn into the dictator he was made out to be. But the establishment surely wants you to believe that. So all of you pay attention to news sources other than the one you were listening to and compare the info. Compare what you are told with what he is doing, and then stop listening to everyone that lied to you.

NaultD · Answer

Even as a leftist I'm glad we lost by the popular vote. I've always said we can never rest on our laurels and do something actively leftist. Now losing by every way it should force us to break the status que and not be afraid of breaking civility.

Still don't think people did the math of moving 220,000,000 illegal immigrants trail of tears style. I also don't think people have the stomach for death camps after they get the first round of bills for too long.

We can't even butcher our own farm animals without said illegal immigrants working slave labor, let alone do it ourselves. Just saying mass deportation is going worse then covid19 worker shortage directly on prices on every bite of food we eat.

Also not convinced 10x surplus of oil is going to help anyone. Oil became negative dollars a barrel early covid19 because people didn't go anywhere. Plastic bags are 2 for one penny moving across the country. It realistically can't be more profitable unless we nationalized the oil industry like Saudi Arabia. Alaska does it but it is a form of socialism so I'm all game for it.

SweetDripp · Answer

Some will. There's too much bad blood between political foes to think they won't. That being said, it's not helpful. We, as a country, just need to move forward by focusing on important issues (economy, national security) instead of all the crazy pet causes (pronouns, etc).

sage2021 · Answer

We should be doing more than gloating!!! Trump gave it his all doing 900 rallies!!
His supporters worked endlessly to get him re-elected!
Kamala did her supporters wrong! Just like she did the Vice Presidency wrong! we should swinging from the rafters and yelling "Kamala - you got fired! Now get the hell out of the White House!! NOW!!

lightbulb27 · Answer

nope, not gloating. try to be peaceful.

it's no time to raise finger in the air..."were number one"... like they do in American football. Its a good time to be thankful and hope Trump can achieve even 5% of what he said... especially bringing end to wars, free hostages, stabilize finances and job opportunities without trashing the world in the process. Lets hope china/iran don't inflame more and remain calm. I suspect they'd be quite unnerved with Trump there...

remember the virus attack? What's next?

Anonymous · Answer

nah fuck that. time to be as petty for all the cancel culture and unhinged meltdowns they've shown, all the threats of violence, rape, murder. they can go fuck themselves

I understand most would rather be Vance, Tulsi or Vivek in this situation but I'm gonna be Trump or Musk in this situation and talk as much shit as I can

I've got no mercy to those who labeled me a Nazi, a racist, a sexist or any stupid label for having the wrong identities or disagreeing with their shitty views

you can't reason with someone who absolute despises you for your existence

MicahRaine · Answer

I'm not. To be fair though, I wouldn't actually describe myself as a Trump supporter. I think he's a d-bag personally, but still voted for him because he clearly did lead our nation well.

Anonymous · Answer

I would be embarrasses if I were you lot. Now we get to sit back and say "Look what you voted in." With each blinder he makes... all day long.

AviatorTom · Answer

I have friends who support Trump, and some who support Kamala. Some of the Trump supporters are gloating and many of the Kamala supporters are publicly grieving.

strateguy632 · Answer

I am gloating. I made a conspiracy that this showed trump also won in 2020. Look at Pennsylvania, Georgia and the totals. 16 million votes without 16 million voters!

HighValue · Answer

After all the things the Democrats said about Trump supporters, what they said about White and Black men that didn't support Kamala, what they did, etc. I as a straight White conservative Trump supporter would like to officially tell them f_(k you $#!+heads.

And the same to any censor that wants to delete that after leaving up bs on here when they repeatedly called people Nazis, and said sexist and racist things on here against people.

DrPepper12 · Answer

Yes. And they prolly should. He's a unlikely & transformative figure in USA politics.

ClassicDropout · Answer

They'll have their moments for sure. Just like Kamala supports if she had won. I don't care either way, just farming xper

Anonymous · Answer

I don't think so. Though I heard an funny conversation this morning between two neighbours and who supported trump and the other who supported kamala. The trump neighbour was very friendly towards the kamala supprter but she was having none of it, she kept ranting about women's rights and abortion and he kept bring nice.

Anonymous · Answer

Only until the Harris supporters declare that Trump won and that it was the most fair election of all time. Otherwise, they are election deniers and the gloating will continue.

NathanDavis · Answer

I'm just watching from the sideline... going both extreme sides going against...

Anonymous · Answer

You already failed. I knew politics on here would be worse once America was done with elections but it's worse than I thought. Maybe some day we'll be allowed to talk about other things again.

FoxnEagle · Answer

Gloat about the shiniest of two turds?
No

Be hopeful about the future and believe that we can somehow get out of this tailspin of an economy, evade a potential WW3, and keep at least some of the amendments alive and well?
Yes

msc545 · Answer

Yes of course. Many of them will gloat. Let's be honest. If it was in opposite result, we would be gloating too. They will get over it and hopefully so will we.

Notherndude84 · Answer

I think many will, gloat all you want.. I’m concerned about bigger implications for the 2nd Trump Presidency.

No... a gracious human understands the responsibility associated with being in charge.

Nope.  I just want the foreign wars to stop. Our government investing in actual American citizens and not foreign countries etc. Crime to go down. Inflation to go down.

genericname85 · Answer

BoopBoopBeep · Answer

I haven't really seen any of that, at least where I live and work.

molonski2 · Answer

No need to gloat , lets just watch the actions.

Smegskull · Answer

I am just looking forward to all the left youtube channels and twitter accounts getting strikes for challenging the results.
Because those sights would never unevenly enforce rules like worthless hangworthy hypocrites, riiiight.
