It will be fine. Some adults in the room will be a good thing for the long term. We will get there

Every index right now is sitting green already.

Would have preferred a split congress, but think Trump will make sure everything is gridlocked

I admit that I’m puzzled but the markets are responding with resounding green in the wake of the blue wave….

Glad to see it but still puzzled

I will be surprised if we have a better run the next 10 years compared to the last 10. But at least the adults are back.

This is certainly an interesting way to describe putting socialists into power. Can you point us to the market where that has led to long-term success?

Why? This happens after every election regardless of who wins.


It's legit hilarious how people think that dems in power will cause a market panic despite the literal fact that the market goes up every fricking time they win.

That's not what we're going to get.

Our best hope is that they are too fixated on revenge against Trump and forget to raise taxes on oil and ban data centers.

Guess we can all at least enjoy this post election bounce in the market.

We’ll see if it lasts the day.

Their spending will devalue the dollar, making the market go higher.

Well, assuming public ownership via stock market is allowed, sure.

But is that really a "strong market?"

How confident are you that that's at risk?

can I point you to the market where rationality and at least the veneer of fair dealing and serious policy has made a stable and appreciating market? Yes I can. Quite literally every market besides the one we are in now

I'm sure you can, but that's not what we're getting. You do realize these are socialists, right?

stop with the parroting sycophancy. There are “socialists” in every government and in every single political entity in the history of the world. Extremism is bad policy, hero worship is bad policy, self dealing is bad policy, needless and endless every single day lies and excuses is bad policy.

I’m not a socialist. Neither is anyone I know. We’ve created labels for what we used to call two party government, and shite got done.

Immediately? No chance.

However, the Democrats will hold the Senate in 2028. A simple look at the map would tell anyone this. If they gain the presidency and keep the House, then they can do all of the things they've been saying they want to do like stack the Supreme Court.

If that happens, the likelihood of socialism taking control of our nation is very high. Socialism & communism require government ownership. That's what those economic systems are. So...in that scenario, I'm pretty confident.

Because of the map in 2028, this was a Senate election our nation couldn't afford to give to the Dems. At most, the Dems could lose 4 seats in 2028. That would still give them a majority after last night, so essentially we have to hope they don't keep the House and gain the presidency in 2028, and also have to hope they aren't able to replace any conservative SCOTUS judges if they gain the presidency and don't keep the House.

That's just looking at it from a strictly analytical perspective of what is possible given the elections that will be up for grabs in 2 years.
