Aside from Hillary, no woman in the history of presidential elections got more than 2 million votes! And Hillary got 64 mil (behind President Obama in history only) she is truly amazing!

Just woke up this morning... feeling upset again about this election ... why didn't she win? :'(
I'm truly sorry you feel like that. But those feeliings do tend to emerge with a lot of people,at least for a time, after every presidential election as there are some bound to be disappointed, unhappy at the results. But you would do better for yourself if you picked yourself up, moved on with your life. Your bitterness will not change the outcome and will only hurt you in the long run.
Perhaps the best way to do this (or what I would do in your shoes), is to step away from those things that enhance those bitter feelings, ie, the news media, too many of those are trying to encourage those bitter feelings on the part of Hillary supporters by
endlessly criticising anything that Trump says or does, misrepresenting, misquoting or even purely lying about it. It may also be helpful to stay away from forums whose topics include the endless pro-and con (mostly con, looks to me) of the minutiae of all things Trump and family. While these can be entertaining (and that's all it is, mostly, but sometimes we do learn things), if what posters say makes you feel worse, you get your feelings hurt by the critical or teasing things some other posters say to you, it can only prolong that depression you are feeling.
As Obama said the day after the election (and I would guess he regarded the outcome aa tragic as the rest of Hillary supporters did,), the sun will come the next day. And life will go on as before. So take a deep breath, look around you and appreciate the little things around you, the smile from a loved one, a friend or even a stranger, a beautiful sunset, a walk in the fresh air, a good (nonpolitical) book, the fact that you still have pretty much what you need to make a decent life, the list goes on.
Actually, those things work for about every disappointment we experience in this life. Experience tells me that.
One thing that I think really hurt Hillary is that she does not come across as exciting. Obama, when he spoke, was inspiring and exciting. When I saw him years ago, when he gave that speech for (I think) Clinton at the DNC, I said to my GF at the time, "If he ran for President, I would vote for him, and I did, twice. He still gives one of the best speeches going.
Hillary has a lot of experience and skills, but is pretty dull, frankly. Very matter of fact-ish, and does not come across as warm and sincere. I still think she would have done good for America, but she simply was not a person many folks warmed up to.
I saw (on C-SPAN) Bill give a speech in some small town in Wisconsin in the mid 1980s. I said to myself, that guy is going to be POTUS someday. About seven years later, he got elected....and I voted for him twice.

I thought the same thing about Marco Rubio during this last primary.
Guess you're enjoying that little ditty-did you think it up all by yourself, or did it arrive in your email inbox and you fancied it clever and decided to borrow it?. Whatever..... but no thanks for the offer, I have a graduate degree and have no need for real estate education, even if Trump University were still in existence. But from what I have read and heard about Trump University (aside from the left wing sources out to destroy its founder of course), one could have done worse if one were looking for courses in real estate investment.
But ad-hominem fancied insults aside, it's apparent that some people may really need some advice about letting go when things don't go their way, and not letting perceived losses ruin their lives. Some people may handle their disappointments by acting like adolescent children trying to improve their own self-images by hurling imagined insults at the other kids not in their own clique, and others may get truly depressed, and maybe looking for mature ways to handle their disappointment.

Reason: deleted quoted post
Did the sun come up today? In reality your life will change very little. You are just disappointed that "your team" lost. This was not a football game!
With the OP, this goes way beyond disappointment. He has said many times in the past that he loves Hillary. Quite frankly, his behavior is both disturbing and creepy
I did recommend in an earlier post of her seeking mental help. She has gone from being a nuisance poster to one I am seriously worried about having an untreated mental disorder.
Much to the surprise of many of us who post in this form, the OP isn't female. He says he's a minority male in his mid-20s!
I agree---he has an unhealthy obsession with Hillary. He has repeatedly said he "loves" Hillary---which is really creepy
