How is everyone going to celebrate on Tuesday when Trump loses?

[geekboy009]

I’m planning to drink and dance the night away

[surfered]

1. A bottle of a good red and canceling our flight to New Zealand

[Klarkashton]

2. 4 mai tais at Island's restaurant in OC.

[Farmgirl1961]

3. I'm planning on being cautiously optimistic....

And waiting with baited breath until the votes are counted the election is called. And then, fingers and toes crossed 🤞 we’ll take it from there.

[BOSSHOG]

4. Anticipating a big D and big VP Harris Promotion

I’m gonna scare the hell out of My Wonderful Wife and crank up Bad Company’s FEEL LIKE MAKING LOVE.” We really enjoy old time rock and roll. We could listen all night and into Wednesday. And into Thursday.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

5. I might actually have some alcohol.

I've recently stopped drinking, but this might require an exception.

[Deuxcents]

37. Me, too. Been a couple of years for me..I think this will be the occasion to get a good Chardonnay

[ornotna]

6. Tequila of course

And dancing.

[Lunabell]

7. My favorite wine!!

White Zinfandel over ice and steak. Medium rare.

[Bettie]

8. I am going to have one good

night's sleep for the first time in months.

[Groundhawg]

9. With some good rye whiskey.

[edisdead]

11. Trump isn't going to lose

Kamala is going to kick his ass.

Get your English right!

[RainCaster]

12. With sobriety

Maybe a pizza? Definitely cookies and milk

[proud patriot]

20. I'm reccently 55 days sober

cookies and milk sounds great .

we are going to do root beer floats

[RainCaster]

45. 39 months for me, root beer floats sound great

👍

[LiberalLoner]

59. Just want to say, 💙👏👏👏👏👏for everyone who has those sober days, as an ACOA.

[Cherrycheeks]

70. Me too..

But with liquor.

[Lonestarblue]

52. Yum, root beer floats! I haven't had one of those in decades.

Remember the A&W roadside stands? We always begged my parents to stop when we saw one!

[10 Turtle Day]

64. With the frosted heavy glass mugs!

It was a such big treat when Dad and Mom loaded us kids into our Pontiac station wagon took us to A&M for root beer! Some childhood memories are just the best and sustain you in trying times such as these. Thanks for the memory jog. I may just have to get some root beer and put a glass mug in the freezer in preparation. 35 years sober for me.

[joshcryer]

72. I'm going to get some ice cream.

The Little Debbie Star Crunch will be my go to.

[kimbutgar]

13. I'm not working the next day on purpose

Going to be hungover by celebrating her win or in bed crying all day depressed.

It’s the one time I’d like to be hungover!

In 2016 the day after the orange turd won I was substitute teaching a 3rd grade class and the kids were so depressed and it was hard to teach, all they wanted to do is talk about how scared they were from their grandparents and relatives who were immigrants. Inside I was almost crying but kept it together for them.

[Blue Owl]

14. Gonna burn some candles

[intrepidity]

32. Those are very satisfying. nt

[diane in sf]

79. The candle with his stupid smirk is my favorite.

[peggysue2]

15. A glass of wine in one hand and . . .

A glass of rum (on the rocks) in the other.

If it's a blowout, the rum wins and Peggysue will be a very happy camper.

[carburyme]

50. Scream at top of my rooftop

Call all my liberal friends and toast pulling it off!!!! We have been worried sick here..

[carpetbagger]

16. Announce my retirement to my boss.

If ACA holds, I can retire at 55.

[Aristus]

17. Well, as everyone in the Lounge knows, I have a very well-stocked bar.

[intrepidity]

30. Your house it is, then!

Just moved to Bremerton from Sonoma.

[Aristus]

61. Welcome to Washington State!

Hope you like it here!

[Deuxcents]

38. We should celebrate at your house 💙

[Aristus]

62. There will be much revelry if things go our way!

[ChoppinBroccoli]

18. I Have A Long-Standing Tradition: I Will Quite Literally Dance In The Street

I said in 2008 that if Obama won, I would literally dance in the street. And when he won, I walked outside and did just that. I did it again in 2012, and again in 2020.

And after Kamala wins, I will walk outside and dance in the street again.

[wryter2000]

27. I'm hoping

I hear cheering outside when it’s announced so I can go out on my balcony and join in

[Easterncedar]

46. Sounds like a great idea. Hope to be joining you!

[lastlib]

19. In May, when he was convicted(34), I popped a cork for the first time in 30 years....

I'm deeply hoping Tuesday night will be the second time. (Or slightly later, depending on when results are clear.)

[Texasgal]

21. I figure I'll have to save my good bottle of

red for a few days. We will not know on Tuesday, that's almost guaranteed.

[Abolishinist]

22. A cigar, perhaps.

When Obama won in 2008, I went down to the local store that had a variety of cigars and bought one for around $12. I'd had a few in the past, but they were less expensive and of the smaller variety and I didn't enjoy them.

I must say, this one was incredible! I'm in SoCal, so the weather was nice, and I smoked it in the backyard. SO good that for many months afterwards I would get several for the weekend. I lost interest after awhile, but I might try one again.

The interesting thing is that I've always hated the smell of cigar smoke, but for some reason, when I was the one smoking one, they smelled fine.

[Moosepoop]

23. I'm going to scrub my toilet...

with the Trump toilet brush I got as a Christmas gift!

[Ms. Toad]

24. I'm not counting that chicken until the egg hatches.

2016 is too fresh in my memory. I was at end of a day in the county BOE working as an observer. My day started at 5:30 AM, and we were not yet done watching the ballots come in from all of the precincts when Ohio was called for Trump at around 10:30. It was a long ride home, and by the time I got home, Trump's victory was all but sealed.

I'd spent the weeks leading up to that night encouraging people here not to be so cocky - that Clinton's election was not yet in the bag - and being berated for it.

This time I'm cautiously optimistic - much more so than I was in 2016. But - the egg has not yet hatched, so it's too soon to talk about celebrating Trump's loss.

[RobinA]

87. I'm Counting No Chickens

either. I live in a purple area of PA, and the place is wallpapered with Trump crap. I was actually MORE confident about Hillary in 2016. I was driving home from work that day and thought I would stop by a convenience store and get the largest Reese's Cup I could find to celebrate when Hillary won. I decided not to because I have an irrational jinx fear. Well, there was nothing to celebrate that time and I'm even more worried this time. I'm thinking maybe a bottle of champagne and a cyanide capsule would probably cover all possibilities, but no. I'm hoping the wave of relief if Trump loses will be the only celebration I need.

[H2O Man]

25. Great question.

I have a couple of old friends coming over. They have worked with me on social-political issues for 50 years. Both of them drink alcohol, though I do not. But my kids have left massive quantities of it in my house. I like to smoke herb, and have saved a chunk of hash for special events.

[Deuxcents]

39. I'd rather have a good smoke and it's on our ballot so if it passes, I'll indulge again.

[H2O Man]

42. Right!

It's funny now that it's legal in this state. I am old, as are my friends. The guys get together to complain that this hurts, that hurts, and that "It's not the same country we grew up in!" Then we turn to discussing pot, and what is common is that we have am adjustment disorder post-legalization. We don't drive high, but are still anxious if we have a small, fully legal bit of weed in the car. Gone are the days of 50 years ago, when as college students, we drove with pounds of the stuff, etc. (Lots of etc)

I live in the sticks, far away from the road, yet since legalization I am more aware of smoking a joint while gardening. But good weed is the best medication for this adjustment disorder, especially nights filled with happiness and merriment when Harris crushed the sociopathic felon.

[Deuxcents]

43. Getting older has had me overly cautious so I've just stopped. If our amendment passes,

It’ll be tested and safe and I’ll gladly pay the tax on it. I don’t drink anymore..stopped that a couple of years ago, too, but for special occasions or just because, it’ll nice to have it again

[wryter2000]

26. It probably won't be Tuesday

Too many mail-in ballots to count

[intrepidity]

28. Taco Tuesday, what else?

And beer.

[viva la]

29. I'm going to huddle in bed--

and keep reassuring myself that it's not just a dream.

[RandySF]

31. If he loses

Get a good night’s sleep.

[buzzycrumbhunger]

33. Cracking open the Laphroaig!

… and no doubt the dugout (c’mon, Florida—make it legal!) for the first good night’s sleep in ages. So anxious to not have to see/hear the orange bawbag again. Ever.

[Enter stage left]

34. Open the bottle of Champagne we've had since 2016.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

35. Playing FOLSOM PRISON BLUES by the man in black.Best have the Kraken Dark rum handy!

For tRump will be looking at PRISON, baby!

For after Tuesday, it's back to Court! These trials have been delayed LONG ENOUGH! He reverts back to "Defendant tRump" to quote Lawrence O'Donnell.

[J_William_Ryan]

36. "I'm not counting that chicken until the egg hatches. 2016 is too fresh in my memory."

Agreed.

And it won’t be Tuesday – we may not know until next weekend.

[LastDemocratInSC]

40. I know what Philadelphia will do.

The same thing they did when Biden won in 2020 - they will be dancing in the streets.

[In It to Win It]

41. Dance party with Beyonce!

Link to tweet

[pstokely]

44. After 2016, I can't be anything more than cautiously optimistic

Even after Comey, I still thought HRC would pull out a narrow victory, I can't trust polls one way or another

[Cha]

47. I don't want to Jinx anything for me personally.

I don't consider anyone having won unit all the Votes are counted Or until it looks like the Loser has no chance.

I learned the hard way over the decades.

[PCIntern]

48. Prosecco

[GoneOffShore]

49. There will be Champagne!

[Midnight Writer]

58. God came to me in a dream and told me to have faith in Him. I need no further evidence.

[Emile]

53. Taking an edible around 6 pm and laugh my ass

off from 8 pm on.

[DinahMoeHum]

54. Sorry. No election night parties for me.

. . .because I'm an election worker, and where I live, polls close at 9 pm and then I have to work at closing up shop according to protocol, calling in results, and turning over equipment to the drop-off place.

Odds are, I won't be back home 'till midnight - and I'm going to bed to sleep for 10 hours straight.
No TV, no social media, etc. until late the next morning.

Just so's y'all know, my day Tuesday starts at 3:30 AM, when I wake up, force down a big breakfast and get to my polling site by 5:00 AM to set up for polls to open at 6:00 AM.

Celebrating (or comiseration) will happen later in the week.

In the meantime, I suggest y'all brace yourselves for the next 76 days after the election, because there's not a snowball's chance in hell Trump will ever concede. No matter what. Who knows what kind of shit he's gonna try to pull in that period.

[10 Turtle Day]

65. I hope you have a smooth election day!

I know how grueling and rewarding it is as I did it for 20 years until my eyes no longer allow me to drive in the dark. And with those early morning and late night hours, there is plenty of darkness driving required. I applaud all the poll workers out there doing democracy for the rest of us. Thank you!

[mucholderthandirt]

86. Thank you for all the hard work you and others do!

When you wake up Wednesday, you'll know it has all been to make America safe again even if the Trump people won't let go. It didn't work in 2020 and it won't work now. Just more noise in the machine, signifying nothing, reaping nothing.

[PurgedVoter]

55. Port Wine!

I love a good port!

[gademocrat7]

56. Prosecco

🥂💙

[Maeve]

57. Champagne in the fridge and orange juice

And a good night's sleep after a long day as a poll worker

[SomedayKindaLove]

60. Man I am already getting teary-eyed reading this

Pretty sure I’ll be stoned while laughing and crying tears of joy all night.

[Niagara]

63. I would like to point out that our last presidential election we had to wait for 4 intense days before being notified

that Biden/Harris won the E.C. vote.


I honestly don't know when we'll be notified for this years win. Will the results come in like normal? Or do we have to wait for several intense days like the previous election?


I still have to go to bed at a decent hour on Tuesday because I still get up early to go to work.


Even if we're given the (hopefully) good news about a Harris/Walz win, I'll have to wait until Wednesday morning to find out.


I can't believe we're almost there. I'm election exhausted and I want it to be over with.


Let's go, Harris/Walz!

[Jersey Devil]

66. The count should be much quicker this time

In NC, for example, 4 million have already voted early and only a little over 1 million will vote on election day. That result should be almost guaranteed by midnight. Same with Georgia. If Harris wins NC I am popping the cork.

[Niagara]

67. That's great news, Jersey Devil

I went to vote early and in-person last Saturday and the entire process took me 20 to 25 minutes. The line was longer then I expected it to be and that's okay.


I'll be asleep at midnight but I'll be getting up for work by 5:30am.


I'll celebrate by making tacos for dinner!

[al bupp]

68. There'll be swingin' and swayin' and records playing Dancing in the street

It doesn't matter what you wear, just as long as you are there!

?si=RfAg_bZsoZiyEgOp

[lark]

69. We;ll get some good champagne, toast and jump around singing Ding Dong the Witch is Dead!

Just like we did in 2020!!

[DiamondShark]

71. Smile and hope the counting is done by 1am.

[electric_blue68]

73. Tues night, Weds morning, or whenever; it'll probably involve chocolate ice cream...

actually preferably Talenti's Double Dark Chocolate Gelato w these fabulously dark chocolate chips!

While I can't drink, per se, I can drizzle a little Kaluha on it if I can maybe get the small sampler bottle.

If not ice cream, some kind of dark chocolate! 😄👍🧡

[Crunchy Frog]

74. Alcohol, benzos, and opiates, and chewing on lots of candy to avoid chewing my nails to the bone.

[RandomNumbers]

75. I hope to sleep better than I have been able to in weeks.

That is all I ask.

I hope to God that we have Harris clearly winning by Tuesday night, or at least early Wednesday.

I honestly don't know what I will do, if the worst happens. I am trying not to think about it, but having difficulties as it draws nearer.

[diane in sf]

76. A big gathering of our local political activists, we've been working to elect our local reform mayoral candidate.

Meeting at our local pizza place w pizzas and some drinks and lots of good company. We’ll be hoping for hearing good results during that time, tho some elections may take longer to know. Being on the west coast, we could very well know who’s the next president by then.

I’m remembering back to the first Obama election, waiting at a jazz club in the Fillmore in SF, finding out so rapidly that Obama had won. Tears of joy and relief all over the room.

[IbogaProject]

77. Not celebrating until it's over Jan 06, 2024

I'll be hopeful if we are ahead any time before that. But after 2000, I have no faith in the GOP playing fair.

[doc03]

78. I doubt the election will be called until at least Wednesday. nt

[a kennedy]

80. Going to a neighbors and I'm bringing 3 bottles of the bubbly......

K A M A L A, K A M A L A, K A M A L A……USA, USA, USA.

[mobeau69]

81. Jenny Kush. 😎

[Traildogbob]

82. No drugs or alcohol

Here. I want to feel the joy 100 percent natural and stay awake as long as possible to feel it.
And even dealing with one hell of a case of Plantar facia, and extreme sciatica in the same leg, I will even dance through it.
And I can’t dance at all. But sometimes ya gotta let the joy flow.
A victory will be a high, the likes of which this one time hippy never experienced before, and totally naturally induced.
But, after a day or two, I will uncork a fine red, and as I mellow from it all, Sit on the deck with my dogs and grin.
I retired in 2012, and he has shit on the majority of it all. I could go back to the joy of retirement, and feel safe with my income, as small as it is, but I planned to live cheap.
About time for some JOY to the Fucking World.
When he gets locked up, OMFG!!!!
I may OD on Joy.

[pandr32]

83. We should share video clips of ourselves celebrating!

We all do it differently, but that way however our elation takes hold we can do it together as a community.

[Onthefly]

84. Hot chocolate with no-fat milk

Helps with a good night’s sleep with CPAP device. 😉 🌙

[mucholderthandirt]

85. Pizza and beer for son and me. Had him bring the beer yesterday.

I was joking, said we'd either be partying our brains out, or drowning our sorrows, but I was positive it's going to be the former.

[Homoudont]

88. Too old

I am normally asleep by 9pm. Will have to wait till wednesday morning to check the news. It's rough when you get old.
