I wonder what is going to happen to the United States of Trump.

[Jatsko]

Me too. Let's check back on this at the end of January.

I'll say this and this only:

As a natural born citizen of USA, I'm deeply ashamed that such a thing has come to this in my lifetime by idiotic people looking past everything legitimately horrible about Trump. I'm also reserving my anger toward those who willingly and arrogantly pushed Clinton into our face and undermined the entire nomination process over Bernie Sanders, a far better candidate over either ones.

Now we can only hope to get those this s*#%fest for the next 4 years for everyone.

F*#%ing hell.

My brother might loose his job because of this.
Trump only one by 1%.

Hilliary: 47%
Trump: 48%

"What has happen before will happen again."
King Salomon strikes again.

After J.F. Kennedy died, Lyndon Johnson lead us into the Vietnam war.
We had no business in that country

After Abraham Lincoln was killed, Andrew Johnson started that stupid reconstruction plan.

Precisely so. This reminds me too much of Nazi Germany, though the only fair argument against this is that Germany was a fairly young country while USA is much older. Another argument is that USA have fairly solid check-and-balance & constitutional game against almost anything dumb that Trump could throw. Given that even when Republicans control the whole government, it is NOT a super-majority so Democrats could give them a fight for the next four years. We might lose some battles, but hopefully what would be lost wouldn't be so bad.

Also, the percentage is not correct. Clinton is actually leading by 0.5% in popular vote, but lost the election because of the b*#&shit math that is Electoral Collage. That system need to die a horrible death.

Still should have been Bernie. I yearn for the day when USA move away from the corruptive capitalism and more toward beneficial socialism.

Keep in mind, Trump burned some bridges during his campaign trail to the White House. Just because he has a Republican controlled legislation, doesn't mean all of those fellow Republicans are keen to support him. He's made damage, and let's see if he can actually mendup what he's happened to break. Also, he's going to learn real hard and fast that he can't "fire" politicians that he dislikes immensely.

Personally, I think he'll be a moderate and one-term president. 2020 CANNOT COME FAST ENOUGH! O_O

Another good point, though he lied times and times again. We will see if he would be willing to work with the Republicans in some horrid policy or not.

I hope someone like Bernie or Elizabeth Warren would run in 2020 for the Democrats. They need to slowly move away from their now failed liberal standing and move on to much more progressive and /or socialist idealism.

It's that very same system that can kick him out. It's to ensure if a President makes claims that threaten the country, and somehow wins by popular vote due to the citizens being crazy that year for some reason.

Still should have been Bernie. I yearn for the day when USA move away from the corruptive capitalism and more toward beneficial socialism.

Oh, so you voted for trump like some liberals who were so piss they decided Trump should be in the White House so they can destroy the system and start over?

If that is the case, then you put my Social Security on the Line. I be kick out of my Apartment if I didn't have my SSB.

Edit: you misspelled 'Corruption'.

[- ak -]

I'm not that stupid enough to be voting for Trump after what he said about people of my ilk, the disabled (I'm severely hard -of-hearing) and a lot of people that are at risk to his fear - mongering rhetoric, including my friends and family.

I voted for Clinton (while holding my nose, if course). She's not a perfect nor a great candidate like Bernie, but she's still better than Trump IMO. I believe the Democrats dropped the ball with this election as part of reason behind their loss.

EDIT - Corruptive is a word but I believe I should have simply use Corrupt as it is also an adjective and a better one at that. Corruption is a noun

[Jatsko]

So your reason for voting for Clinton was "because she's better than Trump"?
