Never Trump

Wow, early results have to worry Clinton.

Trump is very competitive/winning across the board. FL, NH, VA, MI, OH, NC, PA, WI...
 
I'm surprised that at this stage it looks this way. Stunned.

If he takes even some of those states. Let's say FL, OH, MI and NH that really hurts Clinton.

Far from over but I thought it would be a slaughter in Clintons favor. Very much not the case.
 
I thought the large latino turnout would be the nail in the coffin.

I haven't been this upset in a long time.

OK Trump, drain the swamp. If you can do that you're worth something. If all you do is jump in and get dirty, all the while pandering to the least educated of us, well, you'll be the worst President since U.S. Grant. But you know what, we survived him and we'll survive you too. You can't take my nation from me.

America will be great despite Trump, not because of him.

In my opinion, in order to support Trump a person has to look past his overwhelming approval from White Nationalists. For me that is enough reason that if I found out Hillary was a serial killer I'd still vote for her over Trump.

I'm not saying Trump himself is a White Nationalist. I'm not saying Trump is racist. I'm not saying any single Trump supporter is racist. But Trump is seen by White Nationalists as the candidate that best represents their views. I don't think they've ever had a main-stream candidate they like better since before the Civil War.

So to support him you have to be okay with the fact that White Nationalists are on your team. It's as simple as that. They have a seat at the table in the Trump camp. They are his base. Without racists Trump has no base.

So I'm assuming you went on a similar tirade when the Black Panthers supported Obama, right?
 
Maybe it should be noted that I didn't vote for Obama either time.
 
What happened? Obviously the polls so many depended on failed at an unprecedented level. Trump is the president elect. Never thought I’d type those words. The poll aggregators can now analyze where and how they went wrong and try to placate us with their excuses.

On a basic level, though, why Trump won is clear. The final numbers are not yet fully counted, but Trump will end up with about the same number of votes as McCain lost with in 2008 (about 60 million), whereas Clinton is falling almost 10 million votes behind Obama’s 2008 total (close to 70 million). The Obama coalition did not come anywhere close to turning out for Clinton.

Clinton was a fatally flawed, historically unpopular and uncharismatic candidate. Despite the specter of a Trump presidency, at least ten million potential supporters stayed home rather than cast their vote for Clinton. That’s her lasting legacy and the ultimate reason she lost.
 
I just wanna say to all those Republicans and or LDS who didnt vote for Trump #respect.

And to Orrin Hatch. **** you you out of touch career dirtbag.
 
The Demeocrats, Republicans, and establisment have no one to blame but themselves over this. You can also thank the rise of social media. How long did they think the people who keep putting up with their BS. Obviously Trump is not the ideal guy for this, but he captured a movement.

This is a good sign, in that it proves we cant force change, and demand accountability now. No more feeling hopeless and subservient to the elite.
