Members reallyhateskateonlost Posted November 9, 2016 Members Share Posted November 9, 2016 World War Three is coming. Just remember Trump supporters, YOU voted so don't complain when something happens. I hope congress treats him the same way they treated Obama. I blame the media coverage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GMac Posted November 9, 2016 Members Share Posted November 9, 2016 Same here. I got like 3 hours of sleep last night, up since 3am. I'm so disillusioned in America. How the majority of the country embraced this hate monger is beyond my comprehension. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted November 9, 2016 Members Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) I'm one who's been of the belief we have been on that path for sometime now(diminishing superpower). It's happened to countries like Great Britain and France. China has become more innovative, more intellectually superior, they have better education, they are producing the top STEM students in the world, and are very close to topping the size of our economy. The people who voted him in don't care about us being a superpower or having international presence and influence. In fact they believe it's the most Anti-American aspect of the current United States. Take all that in. It's true.

Members marceline Posted November 9, 2016 Members Share Posted November 9, 2016 I disagree. The people who voted for Trump think we're the greatest country in the world. They're about to see that the world doesn't agree. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ms. Quartermaine Posted November 9, 2016 Members Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) I cried last night, but it was a quiet cry. I am now crying, and it's ugly. I'm also fighting bronchitis which has gotten worse over the last few days, and I feel like all my coughing is gonna result in me vomiting. Sorry if that's too much information. I guess if that happens, I can at least go home... Edited November 9, 2016 by Ms. Quartermaine 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted November 9, 2016 Members Share Posted November 9, 2016 I don't disagree but listen to what they talk about - how globalism is a sickness destroying this country. That's why they resent immigrants and think trade deals are the cancer of our country and want to believe that isolationism is the way to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted November 9, 2016 Members Share Posted November 9, 2016 They want to be isolationist but they also want the perks of being a superpower. We aren't talking about logical thoughtful people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted November 9, 2016 Members Share Posted November 9, 2016 We will persevere. It's hard to have faith and courage but we all have to keep motoring on. And maybe this is a lesson to all of us to not take our democracy for granted. We survived 8 years of Bush and granted it's not really the same, but in some ways it is, the way people really embraced an intellectually unchallenged leader, an idiot really. The difference is I believe George Bush was a well intentioned idiot who loved America yet surrounded himself with corrupt greedy people. This is someone with no moral compass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 9, 2016 Members Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) We do have to go on. The problem is not all these idiots will die out in 4-8 years. We have to mobilize, and yeah, we have to re-radicalize in some ways. It is now officially time to go further and more stridently to the left, IMO. You cannot win these people, you can only destroy them - or turn the rest with strength. Edited November 9, 2016 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted November 9, 2016 Members Share Posted November 9, 2016 Totally agree and they have really no idea what the responsibilities of being a superpower consists of. Well neither does our President Elect. Fact is we won't be. My original point was I think no one country stays in that position forever. And it's really China not Russia infiltrating on our leadership in the world. They are doing much of what this country did after World War 2 that led us to be the leader of the world. Well except for freedom and democracy. White women and those college educated men that were allegedly with Clinton. Oh and the Bernie Bros. The white women hurts me the most. I didn't believe my sisters were so stupid and would choose misogyny over freedom and independence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
