Her post said: "A message to my friends: 'Trump will win the White House. The GOP has control of the Senate. This is gutting yes, but freeing too. We get to make every day over the next four years hell for fascists, misogynists, bigots and liars.
'This is not the time to shrink. Nor the time to despair. This is the time for that classic Disney, larger than life, kinda gay, impossibly well dressed, unbelievably cool villainy. That punk rock, black parade guerrilla s***. This is our villain era.
'Make art. F** s** up. Build power. They are about to learn the hardest thing about gaining power is keeping it.'
Dawn, who spent 16 years in the U.S., shared a red-colored map of the U.S. and wrote: "Feel like I'm going to cry for the rest of my life."
Underneath, she added: "This is breaking my heart. After all that, still this."
Reacting to the news, Paloma Faith commented that the country would be bidding farewell to "women's rights, liberalism and freedom of speech," and said: "Hello racism, hello capitalism, hello climate change, hello war, hello end of days."
Describing her anticipation of the results as similar to waiting for a sexual health screening, she remarked: "Today feels like the whole country is waiting for an STD result."
The following morning, she posted again, saying: "Sadly the results came back positive."
Activist Livia Firth also voiced her distress on social media, expressing her sorrow by asking: "What is a word bigger than heartache?"
She said: "Agony anguish bitterness despair grief heartache pain remorse sorrow suffering torment woe. Strong matches. affliction bale care desolation distress heartsickness regret rue torture."
