The post-election dangers we face
The election results were sobering. Donald Trump beat Kamala Harris with 312 electoral votes. Trump also won the popular vote by approximately four million — a feat that no one predicted and one that left pollsters and statisticians scrambling to put two and two together. By midnight on Nov. 8, the winner was becoming more and more clear, and it became increasingly delusional to think that Harris would win. On top of Trump’s presidential victory, the United States Senate has now gone red as well, with little chance of a filibuster opportunity. With both houses of Congress red, progressives face an uphill battle in restoring justice to American society.
