The cosmopolitan, bourgeoisie, PC posturing lunatical left have desperately tried to sabotage both the EU referendum and US presidential election with preposterous, alarmist, insidious campaigns of the highest puerility and fatuousness in a feeble attempt to scare or shame people into voting for their preferred choice. One can easily conclude they tried to pervert the course of democracy. Thankfully the majority of the people saw through their bullshit of vilification and voted for who they liked and not what the lunatical left tried to bully them into voting for. Hitler was notorious for using the very same tactics in his rise to power.

The presidential salary is $400,000 annually plus expenses. Kind of astonished that this isn't more widely known.

No, she's a classic textbook Democrat. Progressive on several issues, moderate on more, goes with the tide on a fair amount, but believes in government oversight, universal health care and education. She was never the "progressive" candidate. That was Sanders. Clinton's a hard line Democrat, and she's managed her money better than Trump has as well.

And no, it's not "billionaire beat a billionaire" ... it's this:

Least qualified presidential candidate in the history of the nation beat most qualified presidential candidate since the '60s. Billionaire fuckup who accepted bailout funds for ranked businesses and resorted to reality tv to re-charge his brand beat someone who could have at the very least done the job.

Also, sexual predator beat former media-branded "strong stand-by-your-man" woman.

Social Media beat the New York Times.

America hates (openly) again.

Don't oversimplify this shit. You're better than that.

Be chill the next two months. We got four years of gnashing teeth and pulling hair.

But it's worse than you think. Roger "Satan Takes Lessons from Me" Stone has the president's ear. Ben Carson should have vanished, but now he might end up with a cabinet position. I could go on, but what's the point?

Has anyone re-read through this entire thread yet? I bet we all look stupid at some point.

I'm neither going to be chill the next couple of months nor gnash my teeth and pull my hair for four years. I'm going to be writing Sherrod Brown and other Democrats on Capitol Hill, urging them to give Drumpf the same chance the Republikkkans gave Obama: none. The Democrats, especially in the Senate, need to fight and fight viciously. That means filibusters out the wazoo. That means reminding the media and Drumpf's white trash supporters that they are only doing what the Rethugs did to Obama. It is also time to help the Democrats prepare for the 2018 midterms with the goal of taking back the Senate at the very least. If that can be done, then we need to have investigation after investigation of Trump University, Trump Foundation, and a myriad of other shady Drumpf enterprises. Don't waste time joining the too-little-too-late protests. Take action NOW!

i'm looking back at the thread and i think i was pretty spot-on

my first post here was that drumpf could win dancing with the starts (i was referring to his constantly shifting positions). accurate prediction, he won.

my 3rd post was that the rise of trump was fueled by the corporatocrat dismissal of popular concerns. given the numbers that voted for trump, including minorities, this can't be ascribed to the KKK as sorkin put it. sure, the KKK bandwagonned, but let's quit being blind.

anyway bla bla etc. i'm not gnashing nothing. warren 2020.

BUT FIRST, THE MIDTERMS. president hillary would have been completely shut down without the house & senate.

so let's start from the beginning: state houses. governors. congress. then the white house.

we shall all have to wait and see.

Please do not forget these facts.

Mr. Trump was a life-long registered Democrat in NY state. He switched fairly recently.

Mr. Trump has been a life-long Pro-CHOICE supporter. He only switched fairly recently.

Mr. Trump does not have many friends in the GOP, as the mainstream of the Republican party did not actively support him, and sought to have someone else nominated.

Mr. Trump is a casino owner. He is very likely much more comfortable with certain social law change than the GOP faithful hope he is. He has supported marijuana legalization in the past. He stopped mentioning it fairly recently.

What this and everything else shows me is that Mr. Trump is not who everyone thinks he is. The stuff politicians say to get elected is not the same as the stuff they do once they are in office.

we need to wait and see what is proposed, what happens, what the House and Senate are willing to go along with.

Sadly, this is probably NOT the first mail-order-bride to be First Lady.....

Everyone remembers JFK so fondly (cuz he got got) but he was as much a lecherous douchebag philanderer as people claim Trump to be... All these fuckers that run for high office have massive skeletons, have massive favors to give to "invisible" and visible backers, and lie to the american people to get elected.

Nothing new.

It dawned on me sometime yesterday afternoon......so many of the reactions to the Trump Train blowing into the station mirror the reactions of want-to-be contestants on, American Idol.

Individuals with zero talent becoming too upset because they didn't get picked while those that were selected become too happy as if they've won something, but in reality they are only going to Hollywood.

If anyone wants to keep hope alive and fuck with their own head, consider this:

Trump hasn't technically won. The election isn't over until December 19, when the electoral college casts their votes.

In 30 states, they are legally obliged to vote with the majority. The remaining 20 are not.

There has never been an electoral college "revolt" but a lot of shit that's never happened has happened this cycle.

Hm.....

Hm.....

i doubt this would happen. not even democrats want that. both hillary and obama asked to give drumpf a chance. hillary already conceded, would have no house or senate to work with-- total gridlock.

of course the repukes wouldn't concede the same way cuz the repukes play to win. this is why their merrick garland blocking gamble paid off. democrats are soft and nice and hence get pounded. but whatever, that ship has sailed.

besides. HOPE IS FOR SUCKERS. hope is looking for salvation in a future that may never arrive. the only salvation is in the present. what are you going to do *RIGHT NOW* to make things better? drugs don't count ha ha ha.

but seriously. your life is happening right this moment, not a month or 4 years from now. right now. this moment. accepting reality. what's the right action?

it could very well be lobbying the electors as you suggest. but just don't get "hope" and "the future" in the equation. hope is hopeless. this is now. now. now. now.

(i'm going grocery-shopping for the weekend, that's what i'm doing. after that, something else.)

Yes, I've been wondering whether or not I should even bother entertaining this.

You're talking about "faithless electors," and I would be more likely to champion this last ditch effort if HRC had polled higher with white American males on T-Day.

Faithless electors have never swayed an election. I don't think a single one of these votes has been cast since the early '00s. With men preferring men to women, and men making up most of the electorate, it seems like a silly thing to hold out hope for.

That said, I suppose now would be the time to organize a mass protest. The electoral college is sworn to appoint a candidate with sufficient qualifications to hold and execute the position of Commander-in-Chief. They will be essentially neglecting to perform their sole constitutional purpose by upholding the electoral vote count for Trump.

But imagine the rebound in four years if Big Gov't were to put HRC in office. We'd be so fucked.

I'm considering seeking counseling. I am worried about the level of rage and anger and despair I'm feeling. I'm having trouble speaking to people who I know voted Trump. Having a hard time being civil and containing myself.

I slept about 45 minutes on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning... two hours tops last night. Was up at 4 with tears in my eyes. Called in sick for the first half of the day (which a I probably should have done yesterday, as Symbols suggested). I'm sore and malnourished. Did something nasty to my arm when I hucked a coffee mug against the wall on Tuesday. In short, I'm acting like a goddamn child.

May need help of some kind. Take some inventory.
