I'm still not happy about the results, but it was going to be an asshole in the white house regardless of who won. The next four years should be good for entertainment value at least.

Except for the part about being happy about the results.. I 100% agree.

Think there's going to be a tone or implied message of "wait and see you guys will regret this!" in her concession.

So far, Trump got fewer votes than Romney in 2012, and Clinton got a lot fewer votes than Obama in 2012. Was turnout down?

Urban voting was overall down, while rural voting was up... is my understanding.

I'd love to sit down sometime and have an actual adult conversation about why people think this is a good thing. I really can't see it. That being said, having watched every conversation on it devolve into insults, I'm probably not going to find it on the PC. ;)

Yep I actually saw some people at my polling station turn around and leave after waiting over an hour. Think the little secret is Trump won because the damn lines were incredible and only people from A.) Rural areas B.) Disgruntled unemplyoyed who wanted change C.) Old white retirees like me were the ones who could afford to vote. Immigrants needed to get back to work; and young white educated needed their caramel macchiatos and "tee hee with boys."

May we live in interesting times.

To me, it's because I already know what I'm getting with Hillary. Trump is an unknown.. he was a liberal just what, 5 years or so ago? He could be like "HA! FOOLED YOU FUCKERS!" and be worse than Hillary, but it's the chance I had to take. I could never vote for Hillary for dog catcher and Trump gives me hope that he honestly wants to go in there and drain the swamp. I liked most things on his Contract with America (https://assets.donaldjtrump.com/_lan...ontractv02.pdf), especially term limits, ending sanctuary cities, lobbyist ban, regulation elimination, etc...

How long until we have a female White House staff member accusing trump of grabbing her pussy? Over under 3 months. I take the under.

Just want to say Back to the Future called this 30 years ago...
