    Most importantly, they would still have been a United States. With Trump, there is effectively no United States and instead we are the Emirate of Goddamnistan.

    Well considering she couldn’t even manage her campaign budget, how do you think she would be doing?

    The worst part is that the problems that led to Donald Trump would still be fomenting. A lot of Americans haven’t yet faced that Trump isn’t an anomaly or the disease, he is a symptom of problems we’ve had for a long time

    Great and I’d be off Reddit because why would I be on here or following the news?

    I want boring back.

    We’d at least have qualified people doing very important jobs.

    It could only be better, right?

    It would be boring. Which is exactly how it should be.

    American influence would still be unquestioned, and the rest of us would still respect you.

    A lot fucking better.

  15. Key_Lie4641 Avatar

    It would be about the same as it was 6 months ago. Which sounds fucking amazing right now.

    I think it would resemble a more normal situation, accept for some whiney toddlers crying in the corner..

    Stock market always performs better with the Democrats. Businesses bitching they need Republicans to set them free, then they suffer every time. So everyone would be doing better, some people would be complaining more.

    It honestly would be atleast neutral/boring. Which boring being a good thing.

    Better. Much better.

    Politics would be boring again. Which is good.

    Idk, but we sure as shit wouldn’t be speed running to economic collapse and authoritarianism

    We don’t know. It didn’t happen. It could of been better or worse.

    These questions are getting tiresome.

    It would have been a continuation of Biden basically. So everything would be just fine.

  27. Fildo28 Avatar

    Trump would still be golfing

  28. VikDamnedLee Avatar

    The shitty status quo would have been maintained and things would be relatively stable. Things wouldn’t have improved but we wouldn’t be heading for hell with the foot pinned to the accelerator.

    More of the same trifling nonsense that was the norm during the Biden presidency with a European-like surveillance state to garnish the bitter taste.

    I hope future candidates from both parties learn from her failed campaign. If you need celebrities to endorse you as a candidate, then you probably shouldn’t be running for president.

    Penguins would be enjoying the quiet life.

    I don’t think we would be better off.

    I have to suspect the economy wouldn’t be actively tanking

  33. helava Avatar

    Things would be fairly unremarkable in the US, Ukraine would be well on its way to defeating Russia, and the right-wing would be screaming bloody murder about how the election was stolen. Trump would be on his way to jail, having been sentenced for his felonies, Jack Smith would be prepping for a set date to prosecute on the classified docs case, and life would be fairly boring.

    What a fucking dream that would have been.

    I’d be starting my Masters in the fall and planning a family trip to Disney. And I’d be feeling a lot safer, and a lot better about my kids’ futures.

    I wouldn’t have to see breaking news every hour every single day which would have been nice

  36. NoLegeIsPower Avatar

    Better, of course. It would be literally impossible to be worse today.

    Orangeman & Co are certainly gonna make tomorrow even worse though.

  37. feral_philosopher Avatar

    Or, how about, what is the Democrats ran with a candidate that the public actually voted for and wasn’t insufferable

    An overall more intelligent administration, full of people who know what they are doing and won’t shy away from science or facts, will be formed, for one. Countries all over the world wouldn’t be getting tariffed to death. Our relationships with our allies wouldn’t be deteriorating. We definitely wouldn’t have any beefs with penguins or uninhabited islands. The economy would be in better shape. Prices wouldn’t be what they are. Attacks on the media and judges would not be happening.

    As a whole, this country would be in much better shape.

    I’d have more money

    It would be about the same as during the Biden years. Constant complaints by conservatives that the country was being destroyed by liberals, transgender people, and immigrants. Meanwhile the country wouldn’t change that fundamentally. Harris would have tried, but would have been hamstrung by Congress and the Supreme Court.

    I wouldn’t be fretting about my 401(k) right now.

    Depends on how the House/ Senate elections also went.

    In a false bubble where the budget deficit keeps increasing compared to Trump, causing panic for a little but long term decreasing the deficit and increasing American jobs.

    The right would be losing their mind over everything!

    We’d be better off right now but who knows for the future

    Everyone would have had a salary increase of 250%, gas would’ve -1.20 a gallon (so cheap axxon mobile would pay you to get gas) cancer would be cured, Putin would’ve been arrested by madam prosecutor herself #girlppwer

    Intrest rates would of come down naturally

    Money laundering from the elites would of probably slowed down by approximately 70%

  51. DecentCheesecake9321 Avatar

    I think it would be chill just like how it was with Biden. I think target wouldn’t be getting boycotted for DEI. No tariff drama.

  52. ColHapHapablap Avatar

    Fantastically and remarkably better. The stock market wouldn’t have tanked because no dumb asshole decided to tank it on purpose because of perceived grievances and flawed math. Racism and fascism wouldn’t be on the rise. Science would be progressing rather than set back decades. We wouldn’t have destroyed the last 100 years of credibility and diplomacy because of little dick syndrome. We wouldn’t have appointed Elon Musk to fuck up anything but his own life.

    Cant see how Donald Trump has improved anything for anyone but maybe 30 people

  53. ModernHueMan Avatar

    Slow decline instead rapid collapse.

    Those poor billionaires would have had to pay their fair share of taxes (a billion, two billion? per year?), and not lost half their wealth in less than three months.

    Won’t anyone think of those poor, poor billionaires?

    Enjoying a peaceful and sane timeline where there would be no hope for Russia.

    Probably doing just as well if not slightly better than we were the night before Trump was inaugurated and the conservative news machine would be complaining about her in every imaginable way

    We would be a slow, burning ember on the way to ashes instead of a flame thrower.
