CNN cuts off Trump's campaign manager...she was tearing them a new azzhole with facts. "We lost our satellite" came out of the announcer's mouth waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too quickly.

CNN still fighting...Clinton has the popular vote...Unity, but are you going to prosecute Clinton?

WTF does unity have to do with not prosecuting Hillary? If she's guilty, she's guilty.

Trump flipped 5 states. Impressive. And we have 5 states that still aren't included in the final tally...Trump might just get a final 300+. Just wow. Historic indeed.

A perfect quote from someone at Trumps party last night
I don’t know if it’s going to be the best thing, but it’s better than the same thing...

:clap: I didn't vote for Trump (or for Clinton) but a shock to the status quo could be good. Let's hope.

I'm going to do a reset, try to forget Trump's social stances this election, and give him a chance to prove his worth and unite the nation. But I'll be honest, I have little faith.

I'm just sad that all the progress made in the last eight years will practically be wiped away, especially when it comes to healthcare, the environment, and social issues. But I know you guys don't really care or agree, so there's no point arguing it. I can live with Trump, but the regression is the part that really disappoints me the most.

It's just...I don't know...a lot of thoughts are running through my head this morning. But ultimately, I simply come to the conclusion that America, especially rural America, is clinging to a world that doesn't exist anymore and they're too afraid (or lazy) to change with it.

The result of this election is:

- A win for justice. Enough people said that Clinton's sleazy way of operating is not acceptable.
- A wake up call on issues. The economy matters.
- A wake up call to MSM. You can't brainwash enough people.
- A wake up call to political parties. You serve the people. It's time to start listening to them.

Progress made over the last 8 years? That's epic level JSO stupid. :silly:

You think $10,000 deductibles and $750 a month insurance premiums is progress? Executive fiat, progress? Open borders is progress? Part time jobs is progress? A stagnant economy is progress?

No, America rejected the Obama legacy last night. They are sick and tired of being dictated to, sick and tired of having to apologize for nothing, sick and tired of having the government pick winners and losers. :tothehand:

Gays will still marry. The Christian Taliban will be kept in check, and healthcare is as much a mess now as when Obama took office with no current signs of it getting better.

But your last line is the troubling one given your support of Hillary. People like the Clintons and the Democratic establishment abandoned rural america long ago. First with policies like "free trade" and then rhetorically with comments like "basket full of deplorables" and "clinging to guns or religion". In fact, blaming this on "rural America" is also a rather ignorant statement and similar to the establishment hubris. Rural America doesn't have enough votes to swing an election but the "rust belt" full of crumbling cities that still have indoor plumbing and the internet does. Or you could have used the "working class" as many Trump voters actually live in urban areas.

Of course the Republicans also abandoned rural America but they've always avoided talking down to the hoi poloi even as they sometimes punch down. Trump might be full of shit but populist stances obviously resonated.


When Democrats move away from populism and become Republican Lite, this is typically the result.

Bernie understood all of this, maybe because he's from a rural state and actually talks with the "real america". The Democratic establishment only have themselves to blame for nominating Hillary....

You're an idiot...and you're ghey.

Stop hating and disrespecting White people. Stop insulting the intelligent Black (8%) and Latino (28%) people who saw through the Clinton lies and divisiveness. Stop with the Obamacare nonsense. :nod:

You are too afraid (or lazy) to see the divisiveness and selfishness of your thinking.

Seriously, you are a selfish, narrow minded, pompous, bigoted, identity politics clown. :nod:

Grow up.

Another great post.

Mr. Lemniscape3 is responsible for the failure of the ONE person who would have delivered actual change. Selfishly...clown boy and his ilk voted for Hillary instead of Bernie. :rofl: :rofl:

And why did InfinityBoyInsideaCube vote for Hillary? He wanted to protect his own selfish gravy train. :nod:

CNN is full of similar clowns. :nod:
