The thing is, I was certain it would take more time than this. I thought the election would be close enough for him to contest it, and that the Supreme Court would end up deciding the election 6-3. Instead the presidency was just...handed to him directly.

I figured the outcome of this election would be one of three things:

  1. Harris wins decisively
  2. Harris wins by the skin of her teeth after a couple weeks of recounts and lawsuits
  3. Trump wins by the skin of his teeth after a couple weeks of recounts and lawsuits, and maybe a riot

I didn't really consider the fourth option because Trump's never won the popular vote before and it seemed like there was more excitement for Harris than Biden, at least up until the last month. So I'm actually blindsided by the fact that it turned out to be:

  1. Trump wins decisively

He didn't do any better than he ever has, it's just that nobody showed up for Harris.

Edit: plus the fact that the R's seem to have every branch of government. This really couldn't have gone much worse
