Unbelievable how naive so many were that thought he had no chance. It's all I've read on here for months. Time for people to take a closer look at the world around them I guess.
 
This election will be analyzed for years. The Bush v Gore election seems like nothing in comparison to this.

Man I really didn't realize just how unpopular Hilary Clinton was...
 
It's past 5am here and I can't sleep, what are you doing America. Between this and our Brexit we've made a mess of 2016.
 
I’m so fucking disappointed/disgusted by this election result and I never thought Hillary was going to win big or even that she was a good candidate to begin with.

And I’m seriously worried about the repercussions this will have not just for the US, but the whole world. This global trend didn’t start with Brexit and it won’t end with President Trump. I’m not sure how we can explain this to future generations, this shouldn’t have been allowed to happened.
 
I don't mean to sound antagonistic or whatever, but did no one listen to Trump during the debates? Everyone just glossed over his blatantly racist and misogynistic comments over the last several months? Honest to God, I'm in shock. I literally don't know how this—Trump so close to being president—could've happened. I just...don't believe it. I'm in shock. Where is America's better angels?
 
I feel incredibly numb right now. I feel so gutted at seeing how many people in this country do not care about its future. And how many don't care about the civil rights enshrined in the Constitution. Who hide behind excuses of "shaking the system up" while electing a fascist bigot who cares nothing about what this country represents. I feel sick thinking about what this means for people's lives and future. I am so disappointed in my fellow citizens.
 
Does anyone think that everything trump has said was just to get the type of votes he needed to win and won't actually follow through on the shit he said?
 
Reposting my rant because I need to feel vindicated





I haven't been this disappointed in my country since I can remember.

A sexist, homophobic, transphobic, racist, xenophobic, fraudulent, facist, POW-shaming, gold medal family hating, climate-change denying, lying scam artist has probably just won the President of the United States.

Don't even give me the bullshit about economic anxiety, you wouldn't have voted for someone who needed a 14 million dollar loan from Daddy only to lose 918 million dollars in one year and declare bankruptcy 6 times. The stock market wouldn't be in free fall right now and massive amounts of bipartisan economists wouldn't come out against Trump if he was so great for the economy.

Don't even give me that bullshit about "draining the swamp", you wouldn't have voted for incumbent Republicans for Congress who do everything they can to obstruct progress. Not to mention their failure to overturn Citizen's United which is the most blatant form of money in politics.

Don't give me that bullshit about being pro-life, Donald Trump has flip-flopped on abortion more times than he can count.

Don't give me that bullshit about Trump being for LGBTQ rights, he wouldn't have a running mate who made it legal to discriminate against LGBTQ folks if he was.

Don't give me that bullshit about not wanting higher taxes, Hillary Clinton has repeatedly stated she doesn't plan on raising taxes for people who make less than 250k a year.

Don't give me that bullshit about Obamacare being a failure, yes premiums were rising rapidly but they were going to rise even more if we stayed the course. Plus it wasn't able to be implemented as Obama would have liked because of Republican obstruction. Hillary wasn't going to leave it as is, she was going to fix it and not blow it up. As it is we're going to financially ruin millions of Americans with healthcare.

Don't give me that bullshit about Hillary being a liar, yes she lies like every politician but if you actually look at the rates she's much, much more honest than Donald.

Don't give me that bullshit about a Trump victory not being a big deal, he can have a very real effect on climate change and the supreme court especially now that he has all 3 branches.

Don't give me that bullshit about Hillary being more prone to starting a war when Trump has said he'd bomb a foreign country just for taunting us.

Don't give me that bullshit about Trump being better for vets, he wouldn't have shamed John McCain for being a prisoner of war or imply that the Khan family were radical Islamic terrorists if he was a true patriot. And he wants to expand the military budget? It covers so much already and so much of it is wasted on bloated prototypes that don't even make it in to the field. How about we provide proper relief for our veterans first.

Don't give me that bullshit about voting for him because you're in favor of small government, small government wouldn't try to restrict freedom of the press, use billions of taxpayer money to build an unrealistic wall, have a massive deportation police force, ban an entire religion from entering the country or expand stop and frisk despite being shut down already for being unconstitutional.

I know a Facebook rant is hardly going to change anyone's mind but if I didn't speak out against this horrible piece of shit it would be even harder to go to sleep tonight then it already is going to be.

This didn't just get refuted. It got blown into particulate matter.

I'm disgraced, and my generation will be the one to blame for the failure that will be the Trump presidency.
Click to expand...

Can you blame them? We got totally shit on regarding Bernie. Whether or not he would have won legit is a whole different argument, but you'd have to be insane to say they didn't stack the deck against him on Day 1 and basically handed it to Clinton.

I bit the bullet and voted Hillary, and I'm honestly somewhat happy that the first female president isn't going to be her. But everything else is fucked to hell and back.
 
This all reminds me of that guy and his 11 keys or predictors for president. Looks like he was right. Lots of people had a good laugh at him.
 
Clinton was such a shit candidate that she managed to destroy her entire legacy by not being able to beat the most beatable republican candidate in recent memory.

Like seriously it's the saddest shit. Everyone says the Dems have it together and they lose a sure thing.
