Reactions poured in on social media after former President Trump was projected by Fox News Decision Desk to win the presidency, with many Trump opponents lamenting his electoral college votes and blasting his voters.
“It’s really depressing to see how many people voted for the felon, rapist, fraudster, who lies constantly,” Democrat social media influencer Harry Sisson posted on X. “Many Americans failed their fellow Americans tonight.”
“American decency was destroyed tonight. We used to be a nation that expected our representatives to be mature, professional, experienced leaders who made us proud. Now, we’re a nation that permits someone like Trump, who bullies and mocks, to thrive.”
