Her stock will rise. It's always better for ratings to be the opposition.

I didn't understand the question, so I asked him what he meant. He said "What time do they elect the President? again. I finally said, "Well, there is no set time, it looks like a long night and may go into the morning hours."

As they sat there, the two of them talked more about the election and one of them said to the other "Once Trump gets in there we are going to get all these mooching N-word's and foreigners the Hell out of this country and give it back to us working people ! I'm tired of paying for them !"

Sadly, this is the base Trump played to, and, although all of his supporters will deny being racist or bigots, he tapped into that secret little place they were afraid to show, until now. The blacks, Mexicans, Muslims, and a lot of other non whites should have a lot of reasons to be concerned right now.

One other man in history had the same views, and look where that ended up.
You still don't get it. That arrogance is why your side lost. Welcome to your nightmare!

Nope.

You failed to realize that real Americans were concerned about......

  • Jobs vs Trade Deals
  • Terrorism
  • Illegal Immigration
  • Unnecessary Wars of Choice
  • Career politicians bought out by big money
It's not any more complicated than that.

The ones that are here legally have nothing to worry about ...

And the base Trump played to .... pretty damn big.

Time to drain the swamp and get rid of the freeloaders ...

What y'all failed to realize is by campaigning the way the Dems did with violence,cheating,vandalism and threats all you did was drive more people to Trump and/or force them into stealth mode.
Y'all brought this upon yourselves, maybe if they'd not cheated Bernie out of his chance? We'll never know...

I know! My head is still spinning! Trump beat the Clinton Crime Family and is alive to celebrate the fact! You know, I honestly worried about him having an "accident" like so many others that were a threat to the Clintons in the past.

All I am hearing is sour grapes. They continue to harp on things not related to the issues whining that it should have had an impact on the results. Maybe they need to regroup. I had read that over a year ago, people were surveyed about what they wanted in a candidate and "honesty" was at the top of the list.

"Stronger Together"? Good triumphs over evil.

You think Hillary Clinton was your best shot? That blind devotion to a criminal candidate is the reason you lost. Almost any other democrat would probably have won easily. Don't blame imaginary hatred for your loss. Your deluded view of a corrupt and power hungry, greedy, conniving 'a hole' of a candidate is why you dems are such losers today.

She'll suck on lemons and drink sour milk like usual before her show and rail against every little thing Trump says or does, real or imagined. I don't know how the people of MSNBC all get that constipated look.
