Looks about right...

Sanders supporters: Maybe cheating Biden to the front, and repeating 2016 was a bad idea. Date: 2018

My god what a beautiful dog. Just look at these eyes <3 <3
IAmAnthonyStark
I had higher hopes, but expectations were low. Not THIS low, however. This is deeply disheartening.
Imalwaysready
Given the last 4 years...hell, the last 10 months...it is a national embarrassment that the election is this close to begin with.
wicklownoshortskindaguy
The fact that it is so close makes me think America is finished! How can a monster like Trump even be considered. 0 human decency!

Because people don’t vote for what is best for everyone or who is a good person. People vote for what they see is best for them.

This is the same expression I made when a friend showed me a video of David Lynch making quinoa.

So quick note, mail in ballots haven't been counted entirely yet. And more dems than reps vote by mail.

Well keeping my paws crossed

Four years isn't long. Are people really surprised it's so tight after the polls all said Hilary had like a 90% chance to win last time?
DangerTrain
People are wary because of 2016. We overestimated the intelligence of people before; not making that mistake again.
Jineapple
Biden has an even larger margin in polls that Hillary had, and the pollsters tried to adjust their methods after 2016. Another miss like
Jineapple
this *is* surprising if you're going by more than gut feeling.
Sandyundertones
It is really only tight in WI, MI, and NV. Most states are performing as expected. PA is too soon to tell.
whatmintyfreshhellisthis
It's not so much surprising as disappointing that, after all the heinous shit he's said and done in the last 4 years, there are still so
whatmintyfreshhellisthis
Many people who think he's fit to be president.
platvia12
As a european I am really surprised, hasn't he lied dozens of times about multiple important things and half of the US still wants him? Lol
Nightcaste
There is no accounting for the capacity of stupid people in large numbers.
dinoman9877
*Thousands.
Diftel
Seems like tens of millions of americans just friggin love bigotry, racism, lies and dead other Americans. Theyre voting for what they love.
platvia12
Seems so, no offense but america is so fucked xD
boobsalot
I dont know why he's not hanging from a tree yet .
platvia12
Might be an epstein case if he gets arrested when he's gone from office :p
smallfrie32
I’m surprised it’s this close still since time and time again he’s just absolutely fucked up and lied about it. Shit like Latinos still
smallfrie32
Supporting him blows my mind considering he’s pretty anti-PoC
Fraggleish
"'I never thought leopards would eat MY face,' sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party."
Preincarnated
Still don't get why a number of Latinos broke for Trump? Guess it's easy if you just assume the brown people are monolithic and with you?
smallfrie32
Naw I just assume people see someone spouting hatred against them don’t think, “yeah this guy’s good”
Preincarnated
See, that's what you repeatedly fail to understand. You think they see that and think it's aimed at them. They don't. Many feel that they _
Imalwaysready
Yeah, but this shows how fucked the Dems are that they a) just expected the Latinos to vote for them and b) still don't seem to understand >
Imalwaysready
why so many did not. The Dems have a LOT of soul-searching to do, win or lose this thing.
sonofcyrus138
2016 all over again. In 2024 we are going to say it's 2020 all over again.
wicklownoshortskindaguy
If Trump wins, in 2024 it will be Ivanka, not elected but Coronated!
ManMashine
Not really. 2 terms and that's it. It isn't like in Germany… where you can vote who ever the fuck you want and don't get Merkel out.
HapilyDamaged
his family will run... it's all gone to hell...

Remember the imgur community leans fairly hard Democratic too if you're using the site as a litmus test
CouchCarrot
"Fairly hard."
killersoda275
Go check out r/conservative for the real experience. Holy shit those are some crazy fucks, keep eye bleach ready for when you're done
Dutcher
Yup. Lots of European influences as well which is generally more left anyway. (the Dutch right is center-left by american standards)
lostlittletimeonthis
I mean last time Europe went right... It didn't end well
DougDeNasty
Like NASCAR racings level steering left.
Escartian
Isn't most of the internet largely left leaning? Internet is tech which is progressive -a scary word for some conservatives.
ItsTheImplication
I left Facebook bc it was mostly conservative lies posted by ppl who were unwilling to even consider it wasn’t 100% true
OwlBeReady
The U.S is more left leaning in total. The last 4 out of 5 presidents democrats won the popular vote each time but "lost" the elections....
FHC1996
Not funnyjunk, as an example. Its like a polar opposite to imgur
dingofdong
Funnyjunk's always been a dumpster fire though, it's always struck me as the chan-equivalent of the image hosting sites
ElbowDeepInAPoliceState
The internet isn't a community. Saying it leans one way or another is as dumb as saying cellphones have political leanings. It's a tool.
Escartian
The tool doesn't have a leaving you're righ but the communities that use the tool do though. The internet is a collection of communities.
Escartian
*leaning. That said most communities online trend left. Internet was used as a catch all phrase cause 140 chart is limiting
LAMovieDesign
We’re not gonna make it another 4 years. Mark my words when that madman decides to sling some nukes across the pacific. What have we done?
Ex0Reaps
Don't worry Kanye will save your country next election
APerfectlyNormalPieceOfToast
Really not expecting you lot to go through another year before people deciding they've had enough and getting physical
GrandPubabofMoldistan
At least we will fight our second civil war for something different than slavery (checks notes)... if it ain't broke
ElbowDeepInAPoliceState
Mate, I'm hoping that the PM gets us a nuclear arms program. Cause if Trump wins i bet he'd invade Canada before anywhere else.
TheMoonrose
I don't think it's nukes. I think it'll be selling America piece by piece to pay his debts. We'll be owned by Russia.
Imalwaysready
I mean, we posted a lot of guillotine memes. Did that not change the world? What more do people want?
hereforthememes420
Couldn't agree more. Sadly, if he somehow pulls it off again, I think he'll continue to ruin our own country first.
Me1iss0
I honestly feel like that is what some of these people want. They have forgotten the horror of war & want to sacrifice their children. Thanx
ElbowDeepInAPoliceState
Pfft, last war on US soil happened well over a century ago.
Xarann
I don't think you understand what all goes into firing nukes. There's a lot of protocol to it lmao, not a button on his desk.
ElbowDeepInAPoliceState
It's not something that has to go before congress
sphericalworld
Oh ok, and what if he’s fired or lost every person on his staff that possesses ethics and morals? How easy is it then?
theusernameimlookingfor
You ready to bet on it that he won't fuck it up in some way?
Xarann
Yeah, because he can't just order a nuke to be launched.
SuperVilgefortz
you mean the first president in 39 years to not start a new war and brokered 4 historic peace deals will fire nukes? you're insane
cdubby
He just gives money to Russia for them to do the nuking!
Bruncuzzy
What peace deals has he "brokered"?
SuperVilgefortz
Israel Bachrain, UAE, Sudan, and Kosovo Serbia, with Sudan ending an actual ongoing war, the others are technically normalisation agreements
SuperVilgefortz
still historic because it's nations who swore to never recognise Israel, etc
Keairan
Sudan formed a new government in 2019 after a revolution. Bit hard to call that historic.
FinnishThem
Israel Oman and UAE trade deal is one example
ElbowDeepInAPoliceState
Oh boy, a bunch of peeps who weren't at war and all are threatened by Iran joining the Saudi-Israel axis. Soooo historic and difficult
