I'm so just done..I never thought this would happen...we probably should just kill ourselves now and soon.
 
please note that it's not like us dems have a plan b. Even in a midterm we can't take back anything due to unfavorable districts and a bad senate map. I'm honest in that there might not be legit elections as we know it in 2020.

This was an existential election from Democrats, and when the cards were played we look to be down one.

At least the media doesn't have to do some soul searching in order to learn something during a Trump presidency since they'll be shut down soon anyway.
 
I regret my primary vote. I was completely wrong to change my mind. Bernie surprising the polls in Michigan by like 20 points should have been an indicator.

Gtfo with this.

It's about rural white voters getting out like never before.

She beat him by 3 million votes

Clinton was a shitty candidate. Yes, she beat Bernie. Doesn't change that she ran a shitty campaign that was far to complacent. She outspent Trump like mad, and she bailed out on states that she thought were locks.

She's a fucking idiot, and now we're going to have to deal with a literal racist as President. A literal racist party in control of the House, and the SCOTUS is gone for another generation.

Thanks for nothing, lady.
 
Why would he be impeached?

I don't know but this seems to be a prevailing viewpoint. This was the "gamble" my dad made. Trump will be impeached almost immediately so it's really a vote for Pence.

He still has to go that child rape trial in December, hard to imagine even a Rep. legislature just letting that proceed without some type of backlash against Trump himself.

Not safe to say that at all. If MI or WI falls, then we're dead.

Look at how well Trump is doing with the rural white voters though. I mean, this isn't bedwetting anymore, this is reality. With the way votes have been coming in for Trump we need a legit miracle now to save Michigan and Wisconsin.
 
Last post I'll make; I'm pretty much done here. I didn't realize that the U.S. would freak out that much about a black dude running the country for a little while.

I thank you guys for posting, but after such a massive polling failure that indicates that a bunch of white people who hate me will run everything and destroy whatever of my rights that they can, I am pretty hopeless right now.

God bless y'all.

Yeah, we are fucked for decades.

Bernie would've had this so easily and that you + Hillary people can't understand why is the reason she's losing now.

Bernie would have been destroyed. All Trump had to say is SOCIALIST SOCIALIST SOCIALIST and the same idiots voting for him now would have been on board.

Oh my god. This could end up being a fucking disaster.

He'd have the entire Congress.

based on the elections from the past year, I'd say is in a bit of a crisis mode right now... The rural/urban-educated/uneducated divide is becoming more and more pronounced and urbanites are outnumbered.
 
I think... I think I have to move to Germany or something. I'm Jewish, and I don't feel safe in Trump's America. I'm going to graduate in 2018, then try my damndest to get a job overseas. Bring my mom with me.

If she loses Michigan and Wisconsin Democrats should have picked Bernie. I never expected to say that but losing those states would just show how weak a candidate she is.

PLEASE DON'T LOSE THOSE STATES HRC

This country is fucked. I pray that we survive four years of this shit; maybe we can salvage something of things.
After 8 years of W, I've learned this country is surprisingly resilient even under highly ineffectual leadership. But a lot of people stand to be a lot worse off than they are now (especially Trump voters) and I'm not sure they'll understand how they got themselves into that mess in the first place.

Hillary was gonna be the most amazing fuck you to the misogynist bigot. She's the only woman who was on everyone's radar as our first female president. Really disappointing.
