I heard he is still eating crow. He has a lot to eat so it may be a while before we hear from him.

Maybe he is like the college students who are getting the week off while they are trying cope with horrific, tragic results of the election.

You phrased this to make it seem like they were coming back to the US.  Instead, they'll be importing goods from Cambodia, Vietnam, Mexico, and Brazil.  So strike 1.

• Hamas called for an end to the war in the Middle East

Here's the quote:  

"The election of Trump as the 47th president of the USA is a private matter for the Americans," Hamas Political Bureau member and spokesperson Basem Naim told Newsweek, "but Palestinians look forward to an immediate cessation of the aggression against our people, especially in Gaza, and look for assistance in achieving their legitimate rights of freedom, independence, and the establishment of their independent self-sovereign state with Jerusalem as its capital."

 

So....yeah, exactly what they've been saying the whole time, I'm sure Netanyhu is just drawing up the paperwork to hand over Jerusalem.

• The Iran backed Houthis announced a ceasefire

https://fullfact.org/online/houthis-surrendered-rumours-donald-trump-election/

There’s no evidence that a Houthi spokesman announced the “complete cessation” of the group’s operations in international waters in the hours after Donald Trump was declared the winner of the US presidential election.

 

One post on X, which has been viewed more than two million times, says (when translated from Arabic using Google): “Houthi spokesman: Our operations in international waters were only defensive, and we announce their final cessation.”

 

It has been screenshotted and included in posts by other accounts on X as well as Facebook and Threads, some including the caption: “Trump Has Just Been President Elect For A Few Hours & The Terrorist Houthi Spokesman Has Issued A Statement Ceasing Terror Operations On High Seas."

 

But there is no evidence the Houthis, an Iran-backed rebel group in Yemen, have stopped their operations in the Red Sea. Credible reporting from the region does not mention any such statement or a ceasefire. In the last few hours, the group has reportedly shot down a US drone and has taken responsibility for a ballistic missile attack on an airbase in southern Israel. 

 

A statement by the Houthi leader, Abdul Malik al-Houthi, posted on 7 November, after Mr Trump won the US election said (translated from Arabic by Google): “Our operations continue in the seas and deep in the occupied territories, with a decision to deal with the camouflage operations of Israeli ships.”

 

The Houthis have repeatedly targeted commercial ships in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden since November 2023, in action they say is in retaliation for Israel’s military campaign in Gaza. It’s unclear exactly how many attacks there have been, with figures ranging between 130 and 190, but at least four sailors have been killed. 

 

Strike 3.

..he started the war.  He wants to annex part of another country.

Literally a thing every world leader says after an election.  Plus there's this:

This is a list of false and misleading statements. (Vak beat me to the details.)

Not a single one is true.

The irony is that the very thing that is leading to Americas downfall is the misguided believing in politicians who pretend that they'll do the impossible and "fix it" without any credible plan. They won't.

As long as I can remember, nobody has ever trusted politicians. Because most of them are liars who only look out for themselves.

Apparently, we've forgotten about that.
