The madman actually did it. Hillary was the weakest candidate the dems could have trotted out there.

Dems are effectively neutered at the state and federal level for years.

Can't wait to see these SCOTUS picks.
 
The thought of him and his family in the White House is really messing with my vibe. The caliber of people that have been there, whether or not you agreed with their decisions, is just......man, what a misfit motherfucker. Reality is truly stranger than fiction.

I think this is the most upset I've ever been.

Years of progress, all down the drain. What does this mean for the minorities, the LGBT, the women of this country? I'm so worried for all of them. We are supposed to be the leader of the free world, and we're electing an incompetent, racist, antisemitic, homophobic, sexist, moronic, buffoon? Un-fucking-believable. How did polling not predict this? I went into this so confident, and now I'm just defeated.

Still praying for a Hillary win in Michigan and Wisconsin, but, well, fuck.

I don't think we will necessarily see the step back you're envisioning here.

"There’s going to be a lot of talk about white voters after the election, but looking at the exit polls, that’s not the full story. A big part of the story is that Clinton underperformed Obama with blacks and Hispanics. Clinton is winning only 88 percent of the black vote. Exit polls in 2012 had Obama at 93 percent. Clinton is only at 65 percent among Latinos. Obama won 71 percent of them."

-538

That's actually pretty weird, considering Trump was more openly racist than Obama's opponents.

I kind get the impression that blacks have given up on the system. Considering the crap that has went on under Obama's terms and I guess it makes sense. I think a significant amount are just done.

Keep blaming the racists and not the uninspiring candidate guys

The majority are still the racist. We don't need an inspiring president anymore. We needed someone who would keep us where we are at. Hitler was inspiring and spread the same shit trump did and we all know how that turned out. A country lead by hate and nothing but hate can happen from it.

How do you guys calculate that Trump has won? There are 7 or 8 states left. Is it like impossible for Hillary to win >50% of those states based on history of the state (red/blue)?

I'm not from USA.

It's about how many points you get from each state. Not the states themselves. remaining states don't have enough points.
 
Those missing Republican areas coming in for PA now and Michigan. I think Trump has both.

I don't think I've seen any Counties go Republican to Democrat? Or even the other way?
 
Yeah its over. Thats it

Can't bear it. My wife just fled the room. My daughter is sitting here in tears and I'm trying to just keep her calm but I'm screaming inside

I can blame both. It's not one or the other. The DNC fucked up but that doesn't absolve the racist shitbags who voted for Donald Trump.

Yep.

I can't fathom how people can actually listen to this shitstain of a candidate and vote for him. The fact the alternative wasn't inspiring doesn't absolve anyone of any blame whatsoever.
 
Holy shit........Trump.......may actually win. Hes ahead in PA....thats insane.

I dislike Hillary but I always said shes going to win in a landslide....wow....everyone was wrong
 
I'm staying up until the election is called, then I'm going to be very sad for hours, no matter who wins for every different reasons.

What happens when you call somebody a racist? They say their not and they believe it too. Your not going to convince them. So sick of seeing he's a racist as the number 1 argument against Trump like it's going to work. It didn't even work on people he called rapists ffs.

Bernie had the right movement. Occupy Wall Street was REAL. THIS is what this election should have been about. Hilary dropped the ball on that one and I'm starting to think maybe she doesn't give a shit about that issue anyways. Well atleast, the Big Short was a good movie, now we get to watch the sequel!
 
Noooo nonononono... Oh no...
I just woke up here in Germany (US citizen) and I'm literally shaking.
What the actual fuck.

Elon, please hurry. We need to go to Mars. :(
 
Trump just started leading in PA. Holy shit.

Man having Hilary as the Democratic nominee was such a poor poor choice. God damnit I can't believe its come down to this
 
I'm not really surprised. Obama created a lot of change. Shit doesn't happen without a correction. We got black president, gay marriage, socialized insurance (despite being broken),... Now its time for the backlash. This shit is going to hurt, bad.

Just four years. We can do this... get people to vote. I'm definitely getting a lot more involved in politics. I'm in TN so it won't do much but I'm very disappointed.

It's not that simple.

4 years most likely means 2 supreme court appointments which will lead to the rollback of roughly 70 years worth of rights efforts, to say nothing of ACA and EPA.

Looks like it could end up like this. Trump could get the "bigly" win that he wanted
