Trump won the job, I will live with it and wish him the best. All adults should feel that way.
Trump wasn't my first choice either, but as time went on, I began to believe he was the man for the job, and the man we needed, partly because he was not afraid to speak the truth, and also speak his mind.

favorability =/= popularity

And favorability means nothing as she still beat Trump in the popular vote. As did Obama over Romney.
If Clinton "beat" Sanders, it was probably the reason he had a bruise on his face just after stepping out of the race. She was not more popular or favored, maybe more like "fixed" when it came to being the nominee.

Yes, in the polls almost consistently for months, Sanders was predicted to defeat Trump by 10 points, Hillary was not. I don't know, the math seemed simple enough.

OK, I think you are on to something finally, "SHE LOST" and now, if you can drop "she deserved to win", you'll be there.

She didn't deserve to win. She is morally, mentally and physically incompetent to be POTUS. The woman is evil to the bone. She deserved something, just not to be our president.

I can't believe I still have to mention this, but here goes.......

Trump won, get over it. After nearly four months, a third of a year, you people are still whining and whimpering. Pathetic.

Pouting. Yeah, I have never seen anything like it.

But, they did to make her the popular vote winner. Unfortunately for her supporters, there is no ribbon for 2nd place, that just happens in elementary school.

Hillary defeated herself. I still think she has so much "stuff" on the party members that she demanded to be the candidate. Don't mess with the Clintons or you'll be number 80 something on the death list!

A Hillary supporter arrogant? Well, I would say that anyone still claiming that Hillary won the election because of the popular vote is pretty arrogant, maybe I mean delusional!

So glad each red state has 2 senator electoral votes

Trump wasn't my candidate (I'm a democrat) but America has spoken.

The democrats really screwed up during the election process by not courting swing states and not focusing on middle America and also by screwing over Sanders, both huge mistakes. I believe Bernie Sanders would have done better.

That being said, saying HRC is unfit to be POTUS because "she's a liar" does not hold water when Trump is the alternative. He is a money-grubbing, xenophobic, dishonest person. He didn't pay the people that constructed his buildings using loopholes and bankruptcy and we still haven't seen his tax returns.

Let's face it, we just had to hold our noses and vote this time. Neither candidate was a good choice.

OP---We didn't hear from you in quite sometime. I figured it was because you finally learned to deal with the election results. You really need to get over it. It's not healthy to still be moping about it at this point in time.
Had no idea, so thanks for setting me straight. I could say he acts like a girl but that would be an insult to us females.

If you still support him you better hope he starts speaking his mind a little less and actually does some work.

There were other choices.

- She could do anything she can to stop Comey from releasing the letter at the end of the month.
- she could save the tape of trump talking lewdly about women
- she could have ditched Ohio, Iowa and North Carolina and focused campaigning in just the 8 closest states: Florida, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire and Maine.


I wish we could just go back in time for 5 months!!!
Ha! Y'all are 5 months ago.

It's called Denial, which is NOT a river in Egypt.

I wish we could go back 5 months to see Trump do it again.

If I could go back to 1992 and buy Qualcomm and 1997 and buy Chicos and 1986 and buy Microsoft. Heck if I could go back to last week with the winning Powerball numbers.

I agree with everything you say, but my observation is this:

The Democrat Party at the hands of Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Donna Brazile, and Tom Perez defeated Bernie Sanders. They then proceeded to hand the nomination to crooked Hilary.
