Sour grapes ? Certainly . I hate to learn that my country could ever stoop so low as to elect this degenerate to its highest office . This is beyond any sort of sick concept that I could have ever imagined . We are the laughingstock of the world . We have elected a man who is an admitted sexual predator , an admitted peeping tom, a guy who publicly mocks the disabled , a guy who routinely stiffs hard working people who do work for him, who scammed average Americans with his fake Trump U , and who has lied more on record and on tape than a 3 yr old caught stealing cookies out of the cookie jar . How has our country stooped this low ?
I think a REPUBLICAN who doesn't support Trump said it best . Per Frank Lutz, GOP strategist
"The greatest country in the history of civilization has become dangerously uncivilized ".
You can see that in this forum from Trump supporters . I fear for our country .
You haven't caught on that America resents your sneering toward the majority. We have had it with the Left, and it will become more apparent in the months ahead.
I live in blue blue blue Seattle. Republicans are the outsiders here.
And there's your problem right there...when you think your side is the only one that matters. That's not the meaning of America. We need both sides to listen and contribute to be successful.
My biggest fear of a Clinton presidency based on Wikileaks, her inner circle, and her hawkishness was nuclear war with Russia.
My biggest fear of a Trump presidency is economic collapse.
Trump will be better for business. He knows how it works up close. The real skill here though is in execution. The country has decided it want's an executive in charge. Period. So that's what we will now get.

I do too. A mad man with an 8 year old mentality. God help us.
Just my opinion - All the Hillary voters (of which I was one) just need to take a deep breath. The sun will still rise in a few hours and life will go on. The people voted and more voted for Trump than for Hillary. He is going to be the next President (barring some sort of fantastic change of events in the next few hours) and we all need to give him a chance to govern before we get into the "It's the end of the country" funk.

I guess we should have seen this coming. Perhaps we thought too highly of people, maybe Donald Trump is more like the average American than we wanted to believe. America is very strange right now, and very divided.
I learned a long time ago , that if you just sit back and wait , things have a way of correcting themselves. His supporters wanted change, and I wonder if the change they get is what they were hoping for.
The one saving grace is that he will not be able to do the things he wants all on his own. We are still a nation of checks and balances, and he will need the support of his own party and the Democrats. As we have seen, he can't even get his own people to like him, so that will be interesting.
Hang in there, all of you who felt like I do. Sit back, enjoy the show, and just go on with your lives. I'm sure we will have a lot to talk about in the coming months and years. In the meantime, the Trumpees will be pounding their chests and making snide remarks. Let them have their fun, we might have the last laugh yet. In fact, I'm betting on it.
On the bright side, Alec Baldwin will have a permanent job on SNL for a while. They are going to have a lot of material each week for sure.
