It was just so obvious that the mainstream polls were nonsense and that she was going to lose. Do liberals just refuse to think for themselves? Did they not see the campaign rally turnouts? Did they not see the constant stream of leaked content showing what a lying criminal Hillary is? Did they not see all the trump signs?

They just see one number on CNN and completely ignore all other information. How can they be so brainwashed so easily?

It's an artifact of them inhabiting their echo chamber. They surround themselves with people who parrot the party line, and that's all they want to know.

I really don't understand why liberals WANTED her to win. She's somewhere to the right of Bush 41 if you peel off the veneer and look at the record. Trump is much more likely to push for progressive positions.

I thought she would win. I underestimated the anger felt by the majority, and would have bet anything that she would be the next president. I'm really no fan of Trump so far, but I can't say I'm very disappointed.

I thought she would win. Trump seemed to sabotage himself every time he started to gain. Then he had the Media against him, the GOP wasn't exactly helping him. He truly won this race because Hillary was that bad.

Despite social media telling everyone Hillary is going to win
Despite the Democratic Party upper management colluding with willing main stream media to feed people how evil Trump is and how wonderful Hillary is
Despite all the questionable polls showing Hillary soundly beating Trump up until 6PM PST on election day
Despite all the encouragement of illegals to vote for Hillary (Obama did this)
Despite all the audience plants giving Hillary only questions like "Hillary, what makes you so awesome"
Despite Hillary practically hiding from the public all of the time except for staged ultra-controlled scripted outings
Despite all the millions of dollars of support from every Globalist on the planet
Despite Soros putting fake Trump supporters who cause mayhem and the Correct The Record posters here despising them
Despite all the violence from the Hillary supporters against Trump supporters and the Republican party places
Despite all the support from major Internet companies to skew web searches and emails towards Hillary
Despite the Democratic Party upper management clearing the way of people like Bernie to push Hillary though dirty tricks
Despite Hillary employing "Correct the Record" and paying on-line posters to post trash about Trump
Despite (fill in the blank)

Hillary.
Still.
LOST.

What can we conclude from this?

They all thought she was going to get the MOST votes. They were right.

Perhaps because it was simply inconceivable to some Americans that a man as vile as Donald Trump would ever be voted in as President of the United States. A man who boasts that he can "grab p---y," "shoot someone in the street and still get elected," publicly screams "Punch him!" and "F--k 'em!" Simply inconceivable that any self-respecting American parent would hold up such a man to their children and call him a man of honor.

a) No, they said she was going to WIN (nice spin)

b) All this proves is the large coastal population centers (+Atlanta, Chicago, and Denver) liked Hillary more than the rest of the country, including Ohio / Florida / Pennsylvania. Yawn no news here.

A lot of people has gotten this thing twisted.
A liberal was elected. Trump is to the left of HRC on most issues. He is not as hawkish as Clinton would have been which I like. I would have gladly voted for him if He had proven he was fit for the Job. He ran as a Republican but he is really an opportunist being a New York values Democrat for most of his life who switch parties to take advantage of the opportunity he saw to claim the prize of being President and feeding his ego. He wants to do the same things that Obama wanted to do ,infrastructure investment which the Republicans would not do with Obama Better health care than Obama care which the Republicans would not let happen under Obama. The only Republican trait he has is to use deficit spending to build infrastructure while reducing taxes on corporations and wealthy individuals.
Trump knows about as much about being a politician let along President of the USA as I do. I have never held elected officer just like Trump.
All of that building a 2000 mile wall (how deep in the ground will it go as people come across the border via tunnels) rounding up 11 million people and deporting them , and other dog whistle statements was just a con mans BS do people not realize that. I can not believe that the people are that naive.
