[Touchdown]

Trump up 5,000 per CNN John King ATM in NE-1. Trump by all indications will win ME-2.

Hillary needs NE-1 or ME-2(a split) and NH for 269-269(a loss). She needs all 3 for 270.

Wisconsin fucked the nation, the world and all of eternity.

Are we 100% sure Wisconsin is going red?

 

[Averon]

I can't imagine how Obama feels at the moment.

8 years work will be wiped away in a few months.

 

[Trouble]

Trump is a complete dumbass, and the GOP will go along with whatever he proposes.

Honestly I think it's mostly going to be the other way around.

 

[FIREKNIGHT2029]

Fuck you WI

 

[celljean89]

I'm scared and I'm a minority. A fascist is about to become the President of The United States. At best his Presidency will be Nixon 2.0 and worst I just don't know. FUCK!

 

[balladofwindfishes]

My mom is weeping

"Don't blame Clinton."

Obama has sky high approval and generic D and generic R are neck and neck. It's obviously Clinton's fault. Like, don't pretend it isn't.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

I wonder if that oppo will ever drop.

 

[sazzy]

I also hope that SCOTUS judges who were thinking of retiring try to hang on for 4 years.

 

[Abinash117]

It looks like turnout actually dropped in terms of number of people voted. Right now it is 90 + million. It looks like it might settle with about around 100 million .

 

[Epsilon-delta]

Imagine how Obama feels right now

This is what I was thinking. The man stumped for Hillary hard only to come up short.

 

[Slacker]

So what's next? Rudy as Attorney General? Ben Carson for Surgeon General? Ted Nugent Secretary of State? Alex Jones Secretary of Defense?

Yep if he wins the worst people in the world will be all over the executive branch.

*Republicans make sure the government doesn't work*

*Voters get mad at Washington*

*Voters put more Republicans into office*

??????????

How does that make sense? America plz.

No

Republicans intentially tank government, hoping people go for less government.

They go for a strongman.

 

[MetalGearZed]

I can't fucking believe the GOP strong armed their way out of Merrick Garland and its going to pay off.

 

[rjinaz]

i just did a desperation drunk call to family in Florida and basically was like 'what the fuck is this'. Dont even remember. Its over folks.

Just texted my Dad who I got in a big argument with the other day telling him he was right and kudos. What a god damn strange day. I was 99.9% sure 8 hours ago.

 

[Ether_Snake]

Imagine how Obama feels right now

Imagine how Bill feels.

 

[banefirelord]

Don't say that, we'll get through this. we have 4 years and we're back.

We just elected a fascist who controls every branch of gpvernment. I don't feel like I'm exaggerating by saying there will not be an election in 2020. This is it. This is the end.

 

[Slime]

So all the freaking out has me wondering, is it too early to start forming a left-wing militia movement?

Blue Dawn?
CARIBOUS!

I don't actually know what would constitute the opposite of a wolverine....

I can't believe I actually need to say this, but it's probably legitimately dangerous for you to even joke about that right now.

 

[zelas]

Wow, this is it till 2020.

Congress matters more. 2018 matters more.

 

[hydragonwarrior]

I just realized the US is going to probably exit any climate change negotiation and pump tar into the sky. You guys will officially be a country of climate change deniers thanks to Trump.

And that's what you get labelled as - it happened with us and Harper in Canada.

 

[Crabernacle]

I live in a blue state for 10 more minutes. Sure it's not official until January. But it's true, and I'm absolutely gutted. Florida, what the fuck?

 

[Kusagari]

Thanks for desiring compromise so much Obama.

I legitimately believe Comey's last minute partisan bullshit is what put Trump over the top.

Your desire to believe in Republicans will destroy your legacy.

 

[Twilight Princess]

So is you know who going to put Hillary in jail now

 

[Slacker]

I also hope that SCOTUS judges who were thinking of retiring try to hang on for 4 years.

Obviously you can guaran-damn-tee those justices will hang on now.

 

[Sanjuro]

Imagine how Bill feels.

Imagine if Donald feels.

 

[thebloo]

If you think Clinton was the reason the Democrats lost, you're up for another loss in 2020.

^^

 

[Magni]

Is NH winnable? ME-2? NE-1? AZ? Is there any hope left? Fuck

Not surprising. Minter was a weak candidate.

Hmm ok. Didn't follow that race at all.

 

[CrimzonSamurai]

I wonder if that oppo will ever drop.

Savage, bro.

Savage.

 

[Jive Turkey]

This is literally the Homer winning garbage commissioner over the sane dude who was rational. Jesus christ.

Haha I was just telling my wife that Clinton should give a Ray Patterson style concession speech. "Are you kidding me? This is what you want? Have fun cleaning up the mess, suckers!"

 

[Rentahamster]

Georgia for Trump

 

[The Technomancer]

I live in a blue state for 10 more minutes. Sure it's not official until January. But it's true, and I'm absolutely gutted. Florida, what the fuck?

I live in Wisconsin. How the fuck do you think I feel right now?

 

[AnotherDayAnotherDollar]

Clinton, you fucking suck.

 

[Snowman Prophet of Doom]

250k votes cast for Johnson and Stein in FL. If those broke for Hillary, she'd win.

Except you can't just assume 100% of those voters would have broken for Hillary. Libertarians aren't going to vote for Big Government Clinton, Bernie or Busters probably would have just stayed home if they hadn't had Jill Stein to vote for, and at least some Greens and Libertarians prob would have been accelerationists who thought America "deserved" Trump or some shit.

Third party candidates get votes in every election. If you didn't win without the third party voters, you didn't win, and blaming a group for doing what they ALWAYS do is just silly.

Rural whites turning the fuck up is the cause of this, plain and simple, and I'd say the phenomenally quick and sharp rise of stridently radical Leftist views on race, gender, sex, and other such things in the last four years is probably at the root of that. When you back people into a corner, they fight back, and history shows this again and again. Biden probably would have overcome this by virtue of being a million times more likable than Trump, and being a man, and even Bernie might have had a better shot because I think at least some white rage would have funneled into Bernie's anti-establishment economic shit in a general election.

 

[Totakeke]

Even Hillary would feel fucking awful for being responsible for setting back the country so far back. She didn't do this for shit and giggles.

 

[benjipwns]

Imagine how Obama feels right now

Won't someone think of the most powerful man in the world?!?

 

[Suikoguy]

"Don't blame Clinton."

Obama has sky high approval and generic D and generic R are neck and neck. It's obviously Clinton's fault. Like, don't pretend it isn't.

Then explain how she had better results than Obama in many districts AND still lost?

 

[mjp2417]

*Republicans make sure the government doesn't work*

*Voters get mad at Washington*

*Voters put more Republicans into office*

??????????

How does that make sense? America plz.

Republicans also gut education funding.

 

[Tangled Up in Blue]

Hitler and Putin both seized absolute power in their countries by staging false flag terror attacks on their own soil. You are delusional if you think Trump won't try the same thing.

The republic is over.

 

[geomon]

Our President is going to be beholden to the Russian fucking government...

 

[Ac30]

I just realized the US is going to probably exit any climate change negotiation and pump tar into the sky. You guys will officially be a country of climate change deniers thanks to Trump.

And that's what you get labelled as - it happened with us and Harper in Canada.

Yep. I can't wait to see all the progress we don't make.

 

[MetalGearZed]

We got our fucking asses kicked. this is just beyond unbelievable. not in my wildest dream.

 

[ErasureAcer]

It looks like turnout actually dropped in terms of number of people voted. Right now it is 90 + million. It looks like it might settle with about around 100 million .

I called Trump not getting much more than 50 million votes(Romney had 59). It perplexes me how people sat at home.

 

[spock]

Really do hope somehow Hillary pulls through. I'm a single dad of 2 young girls. To have someone of Trumps character as president is just sad. I sensed it coming, but I fuck I would rather be wrong.

 

[rjinaz]

"Don't blame Clinton."

Obama has sky high approval and generic D and generic R are neck and neck. It's obviously Clinton's fault. Like, don't pretend it isn't.

The hate for her was just too strong to overcome in the end. I feel like way too many people voted just to keep her out of office than they did to put Trump in the office and that's ultimately why we lost.

 

[Already Torn]

He really is Mr. Brexit huh. Maybe we'll get lucky and someone shoots him.

 

[Piecake]

"Don't blame Clinton."

Obama has sky high approval and generic D and generic R are neck and neck. It's obviously Clinton's fault. Like, don't pretend it isn't.

Trump is winning because of record Republican turnout. That isn't Hilary's fault. That is Trump finally giving the rural white racist fucks exactly what they wanted all along in a political candidate.

 

[Loudninja]

Clinton, you fucking suck.

Has nothing to do with her.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Then explain how she had better results than Obama in many districts AND still lost?

Because she had worse results in the districts that actually mattered. This should be self-evident.

 

[mentallyinept]

What's sad is that I'll be fine.

I'm white, straight, married, work in a growing job market, and I have a white kid with a white name.

It's everyone else who is fucked.

That's the tragedy. Everyone who isn't me or who looks like me.

 

[Black Mamba]

"Don't blame Clinton."

Obama has sky high approval and generic D and generic R are neck and neck. It's obviously Clinton's fault. Like, don't pretend it isn't.

No. Racists who never vote came out because they had a racist to follow.

No one could have stopped this, it seems.
