Trump winning

Comey letter 2 weeks ago
8 yrs Republican obstructionism you would have thought this would have helped democrats overwhelmingly it has the opposite affect

Clinton losing

Emails
Wikileaks only a little
Rigging the primaries in her favor

If Sanders got the nomination he would have gotten 340 electoral votes no problem

I think the two things that affected this election were obvious:

1) For some unknown reason, a large percentage of Americans are very unhappy right now, and were willing to take anything that wasn't what they considered "establishment".

2) Hillary simply had a lot of people who didn't care for her. I have to admit, she does not have the people skills of Obama, and some people questioned her honesty.

Those two factors created a perfect storm for a clown, like Trump, to come in and give them someone to shove into the faces of the people they disagree with.

"For some unknown reason"

?????

Hillary, I know you've had a tough night but get off the message boards.

Hillary's lose to Obama from 8 years ago. She was always seen as 2nd best. 2nd to her husband presidency, 2nd to Obama's presidency... and to most 2nd to Berni.

Trump - Twitter

Trump represented change from Obama and Hillary.

Hillary insulted vast swaths of American voters. Calling Republicans racist, uneducated, deplorable, and irredeemable pissed people off. Me included.

You may be correct, until you mentioned it, I had no idea that I'm stupid. I do appreciate you letting me know.
As stupid as I am, I am really enjoying watching a Trump victory, a seeing all the tears from the crooked hillary supporters.
Can you just imagine how this must be affecting "Sure thing hillary", who was promised the presidency for eight long years and had absolutely no doubt that she wouldn't win and be the fist female president.
It must be killing her, and no one would want to be around the evil, mean, hot tempered biotch for a long time. Bill will probably get another black eye, or worse..
Revenge is so very sweet, I hope she suffers greatly, no one deserves it more than she does..
