I like Biden but he had 2 unsuccessful Presidential bids. I wonder why he didn't get the support .

Still think that Sanders could've won this general election?

Trump supporters are sending me messages threatening to send me & my "ilk" to the gas chambers & writing hashtags like "#sieg hiel". NOT OK.

I wonder if I'm going to be able to wake up anytime soon and not feel so upset/defeated. I mentioned this before, but everything is fine for a second, and then reality sits in. I know some may say I'm being overdramatic, but I guess I'm still processing. 

 

Some info from the former governor of PA...

I'm having the same reaction.

That's not how fascism works. He wants this. He likes it. We need to stop thinking that this guy gives a [!@#$%^&*] about this country. 

I know you're right, but I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around having a President who actively wants bad things for our country.

Did Trump want good things for all the vendors he stiffed?

 

I'm guessing he cares about himself and those of his ilk.

Look who's tweeting. . . 

 

	Donald J. Trump  @realDonaldTrump
The @nytimes states today that DJT believes "more countries should acquire nuclear weapons." How dishonest are they. I never said this!

 

	Donald J. Trump  @realDonaldTrump
Wow, the @nytimes is losing thousands of subscribers because of their very poor and highly inaccurate coverage of the "Trump phenomena"

One of these days, voter suppression is going to be as big an area of concern as messaging.

This report was done on Election Day. My guess is not enough people watch reports like these or take them seriously.

It's lasted a day

 

I have a feeling even the GOP is going to be ready to dump this guy on day 1. Sadly his VP is even scarier.

Good. I have a friend whose boyfriend is obsessed with that guy. He was always posting his articles and stuff all over the place and it was always vile and rubbish.

 

The white nationalists of Australia were out again today in their new quest to Make Australia Great Again. Apparently they're really hoping for concentration camps to come back (for all the Muslims/Jews/Gays/Blacks of course) and think Australia and America should bomb the Middle East out of existence. 

Hearing that people want a modern-day version of the Holocaust is so terrifying to me

I do take some small, cold, bitter satisfaction in one thing, and that’s the fact that Trump is going to be absolutely [!@#$%^&*] miserable for the next four years. 

He’s an entertainer and an attention whore, not a public servant. He wants to be on TV and in front of crowds, not actually working a difficult, grueling, stressful job he can’t opt out of. He’s going to have to sit through SO many meetings, be forced to read SO many briefings, get shoehorned into serious business all day every day, without crowds to perform for, and he’s going to hate Every. Single. Minute. 

And then, when he doesn’t deliver on his promises, when he doesn’t build the wall or create jobs or make people rich, when it becomes clear how incompetent and buffoonish he is, the country and all his supporters will turn on him. They’re gonna start blaming him for everything, and those crowds that cheered for him are going to start booing. He’ll be humiliated at every turn, and leave office with the lowest approval rating ever, and he’ll be universally despised. 

Because if he’d lost to Hillary, he would have played the martyr forever, called everything rigged, and had a cushy gig on Fox News complaining every day about how he would have done it better. But now he’s going to have to actually WORK, he’s going to be forced to deal with RESPONSIBILITIES, while surrounded by people who hate him and don’t respect him, people vastly more intelligent and competent than him, and he will be exposed as a loser. And then, we’ll fire him. He’ll go down as the worst president in history. And he’ll have no one to blame but himself. 

I know this isn’t much against the fear of what’s going to happen, but friends, hear me. We are going to make Donald Trump’s life a living nightmare, and I for one take immense pleasure from that. 

^^^Thanks for sharing that post! 

 

Do you guys think Hillary's main message was going after Trump? I know she had "stronger together" and that she focused on on economy at her rallies (at least the ones I watched), but I'm seeing people say this.

 

I know she criticized his temperament and rhetoric, but isn't it par for the course for candidates to make the other look bad? I actually thought Trump did this more than her and was harsher? 

 

Every ad of Hillary's seemed to be focused on him & not much else, I personally thought she needed to focus on other thing's besides him

There were rumors he was looking to start his own network.

Do we ever see ad's about what the person will actually accomplish?

I noticed that too. Then I realized that she put out her positive ads in the primaries and actually before then. (I'm assuming they were on TV at that time?)

 

I wonder if it would have helped to air these over the summer and after Labor Day.

 

Her campaign also started weekly videos showing the differences she made in people's lives, but they were too long to air on TV. They were powerful but I don't think they reached enough people.
