RIP my 401k

RIP everyone's 401k

 

[OrbitalBeard]

You should be more worried about Wisconsin...

Trump's already got that on lock.

Is he still up in Michigan?

This is so insane.

 

[TheChewyWaffles]

Well this is certainly closer than expected. Clinton is still going to win but will get around only 280 electoral votes. Senate dream is dead, will probably go 52-48.

I think you need to get up on current events.

 

[Miggy]

Trump wins Florida as well.

 

[Darryl M R]

If Trump wins I want white middle class families to feel the most pain. I want the uneducated whites that feel cheated and want to take their country back to feel even more desperate after four years.

I would understand Jeb or Rubio. But this man has no qualifications and sold snake oil.

 

[LordKasual]

Georgia called for Trump.

Ugh.

Of course they did

 

[Exile20]

I think Obamacare killed the dems. The unfreeze in rated was disastrously timed.

That helped but emails were coming out almost every week and Clinton did not deny any of them or proved she was not corrupt.

Comey also contributed also.

She was getting beaten from everywhere. She was extremely flawed to start with and all the DNC had was some shit Trump said that people just didn't care about since uneducated whites are his biggest demographics. They love that kind of talk.

 

[disappeared]

I'm actually holding sober.. fuck everything.

I'm with ya buddy. But God I wish I had at least a glass of something.

 

[What did he mean by this?]

This post right here sums up the problem entirely Imo. Rather than discuss why people are voting trump and why they have their views you opt to use embarrassment and mockery.

People need educating, not insulting.

They need education to understand the plights of minorities? What dont they understand exactly

Stop killing us. Is thst good enough for you?

 

[Oh God Why]

[Falchion]

Stay safe everyone no matter how this turns out. Don't do anything stupid to yourself or others.

 

[Ether_Snake]

at least i can vote for Kanye in 4 years and no one can say shit

You kid but I think this is actually exactly what will happen in 2020. It is typical "end of an empire days". First Trump, then people who stood against him lose faith in the system, don't go vote, or vote for a clown candidate for shits and giggles. He wouldn't win, but from here on out people will be very likely to not bother to vote or throw their votes away on vanity candidates. I don't see Trump out in four years.

 

[Ahasverus]

President Donald J Trump.

Isn't this just surreal? The guy from the apprentice? Haha. Fuck off.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

I love Canada appreciate my nation so much right now

 

[mercenar1e]

hows the L Hillary GAF?

 

[Diprosalic]

Fuck off america.

 

[wild wild rice]

I feel so bad for my daughter. I can't stomach the thought of her thinking he's a normal president. I'm on the verge of vomiting.

I know. I have a three month old and the prospect of the environment, economy, diversity...basically everything going down the shitter is the worst thing about all of this.

 

[ManDudeChild]

Well at least those in the U.K. no longer have the most egg on their face.

...

REALLY America? I gotta live next door to you.

 

[NetMapel]

Trump leading in popular votes too wtf...

 

[KO Traveling Hobo]

I'm going to go on a long rant here and I'm sure in this fast moving thread no one will read it, but it's going to be at least a little cathartic. I'm also going to put this forum on blast a bit.

You know, I'm just going to take a moment to say that some of us tried to warn so many of you. The whole "social justice warrior" online movement or whatever you want to call it that this forum in particular has come to be dominated by. Shame and spite do not do anything to help one's cause.

Unrepentantly calling all white people racists and bigots and sexists and misogynists is what brought this on. I've joked on here about voting for and supporting Trump, but god knows I never actually did. But I've always been able to at least sympathize with those "deplorables" for the blatant hypocrisy on the left when it comes to all of those social issues that dominate social media these days.

too many people on the left, and on GAF especially, remind me of the conservatives in the years following 9/11 under Bush. Everything was viewed through a polarizing, black and white filter. You are either with us or with the terrorists. You are either a ____ist or you're not.

You can't demonize and shame people and expect they'll agree with you. They'll only dig their heels in further, especially if they feel attacked.

This is some real truth here, folks:
All the people who are very likely or even (ugh) probably going to put Donald fucking Trump in the White House tonight are not voting because they hate women or blacks or mexicans or whoever else. I'm also not saying that the hatred isn't a factor, because it's been shown repeatedly that at least on some level it's an animating force for all of this... but people are complex animals but you've turned them into cartoon villains and stereotypes without every trying to understand them or why they actually feel the way they do.

Polarization is bad. The right has been polarized for a long time, but now the left is too, and it's biting them back hard tonight. If Trump wins and has the House and Senate behind him, this is literally the end of America as we know it and the beginning of a new BRIC nation world alignment. That's really fucking bad.

As someone who proudly voted for Hillary, I agree.

I really hope there is a turnaround here and elsewhere.

I have always said that I am much more likely to shift my opinion on topics where posters are friendly and respectful, and I don't think I'm unique in that regard.

 

[R0ckman]

I severely underestimated the integrity of my country

I severely underestimated humanity

You mean overestimated.

 

[centmoe]

Game over, fuck the DNC and HC.
Alot of people will suffer because of their idiocy

 

[yanipheonu]

538:

Fact is, unless Clinton somehow wins in Arizona, Trump is going to be the next president.

 

[onadesertedisland]

Just imaging him making a State of the Union Address.

I can see him pitching his shitty hotels and casinos during every one.

 

[TemplaerDude]

I'm a little flabbergasted...

 

[whytemyke]

Watching Rudy strut on MSNBC I just want to fucking puke

You mean the next Attorney General?

 

[DashReindeer]

Just really, really sad and anxious right now and I am not sure what I can possibly do about it. I feel distraught that things could have gotten to this point.

 

[jfkgoblue]

Chris Matthews still has hope

 

[PBalfredo]

I can't do this shit again in four years.

 

[Finaika]

Time to move to Japan.

 

[WhiteRabbitEXE]

Well, we (Arizona) got rid of Sherriff Joe Arpaio, so that's... something decent.

But it's kind of like getting an ice cream cone after a quadruple limb amputation.

 

[kiunchbb]

No.

Well you might be right, but end result is minority will end up in a even more sorry states because of this. Winning an argument does nothing, because the losers will just be more motivated to vote against you.

 

[Gutek]

TIL that GAF is a fucking echo chamber of insane proportions.

 

[Siphorus]

Georgia called for Trump.

Ugh.

Yea, Hillary is done.

 

[entremet]

If the key factor was racism, why didn't these voters turn on Obama, but a white woman?

 

[Carnby]

"bull shit. this isn't anything like Brexit. Shut the fuck up."

How many times have I heard that....

 

[samn]

To add to my post expect to see flagrant violations of executive power. The move toward an imperial presidency is a thing and it has't stopped with Democrats in power. Now we have an authoritarian president and a Congress and SC too afraid too oppose him. There is a chance Trump will commit impeachable offenses but it won't matter as Republicans are in control.

Also expect to see the same media circus we have seen for the past year for the next 4 at minimum. The media will not hold Trump accountable and will use him for nice juicy ratings. Trump will also likely not be shy about revoking press credentials for those he deems against him.

I have been saying this for so long with regards to the surveillance powers that intelligence agencies have. Bush and Obama were incredibly irresponsible here.

 

[gimmmick]

Never under estimate the power of stupid people

 

[Duxxy3]

Question 4 passes in Massachusetts. So at least we'll have legal weed.

So we got that going for us. Which is nice.

 

[Merino]

Pretty scared this is going to directly lead to WWIII

We all laughed at the notion of Trump holding the nuclear launch codes....laughed we did......

I read it and agree with most of it never considered voting for trump just considered not voting for Hilary did in the end and as PA is very close I guess it was worth not writing in Bernie. But I do feel like neogaf is not a safe place to talk about opinions if you are not strong left. Not that it matters in the grand scheme of things if trump is elected.

 

[Samurai G0SU]

Global market is plumeting because of trump winning?

...... peso down 10% dow down 700 points?

 

[Nokagi]

Women. Gays. Minorities. You have my sympathy. With Trump leading the house and senate ya'll are screwed for the next 4 years and probably beyond. Even more so than you normally are.

 

[Illucio]

30k apart. Tons left in Flint, Detroit, and Ann Arbor area.

Detroit will be strictly Hillary.

Ann Arbor and Flint are wild cards.

 

[HotHamBoy]

President is just a figure head, this isnt Nazi Germany, mostly what the president wants he doesnt get, people need to calm down a bit.

Except when all branches of government are Republican.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

We can only hope the upcoming trials (the president is on trial guys) lead to something and he gets his ass impeached.

Could there actually be a situation where we have a sex offender in the Oval?

 

[Dilly]

Globalism was a mistake. We are all fucked now.

 

[Obliterator]

Out of all of this shocking shit tonight, I think the most shocking of all is that Trump is winning the popular vote as well.

 

[joms5]

To be fair, Trump supporters were getting banned left and right, and people saying anything against Hillary

This!

I came into one thread to downplay some Trump hating and was ganged the hell up on by a number of people in here. Was even called a racist, misogynist, bigot. Mods did nothing.

Hell i'm not even American and have no horse in this race. But it's strange to see all the Trump haters on the defensive now.

They were too busy calling him a rapist and making fun of his hair and skin colour to see the full picture.
