I'm probably one of the older folks who post here and I'm telling you I've never seen the likes of this in my life. It's just ugly. In my experience, it was the Republicans who were always considered the party of hate and exclusion, and the Democrats the party of tolerance. And while I think most Democrats are just hoping things work out well for everyone in the country, there's the small subset of people who seem to be out of their damn minds. The hypocrisy, the flawed thinking, the animus all seem to be endless. I think it's only giving more resolve to people who pushed back by electing Trump in the first place.
If you think this is about winning and losing, you're not comprehending the point here.
Nobody likes to lose, but it's not like this is an Obama vs. Romney sort of an election.
This is a 'Completely Unfit Buffoon' vs. 'Qualified Woman' sort of an election.
I'm not saying Hillary Clinton is a saint or is perfect in every way, for I am a realist.
I'm saying that Trump is absolutely awful in pretty much EVERY way.
And, that is the truth of it. If you see him differently, that's on you, but my eyes are wide open to this one.
I've voted Democrat more than not, but this is not what it was about for everyone. For some of us, it was about a buffoon vs a self-serving lying, perjuring, witch who put Americans last and wanted to keep George Soros happy.
You may be fine with someone using a charitable foundation for personal expenses, and also fine with perjury, but some of us are not.
She was SO bad, that yes, some of us had to go with the buffoon, whether we liked it or not.

I'm with you. NEVER in my 40 years of voting have we ever seen anything like this election or either of these candidates. Running for office at the same time!
Am a member of neither tribe. Have voted both ways.
OP If you are lumping all liberals as nasty, who is the arrogant one you called another poster?
WE all should hope for the best, for our country.
Some of this anger should be vented on members of congress and the senate.

Exactly. Empathy when it counts and voices need to be heard, and riots and ridiculous vile-spewing lectures when there's nothing that can be changed.

Well, buffoon is letting Trump off far too easily. He's a known, admitted fraud who brags about sexual assault and ran his campaign on hate, fear, ignorance and bigotry. If Clinton, Obama or any other non-GOP candidate was as into kissing Putin's behind as Trump clearly is, Trump's lemmings would be howling for blood, demanding impeachment.
That's because the Trump lemmings are rank hypocrites.
All that said, I 100% agree that Hillary Clinton is a vile corporate prostitute and in a million years I never would have voted for her either.
Really, when you consider the "choice" we had--between Trump and Clinton--it was the entire nation that lost.
Hillary was worst candidate ever, for all political parties!!

Hillary is and was not at ALL qualified. You are ignoring half a dozen federal laws and dept of state policies she violated. Weiners latest laptop provides thousands more emails that Hillary sent till her home server that were highly classified.
The FBI and the justice dept confirmed that Hillary was competitively irresponsible and inept at performing her job. Hillary's health is deplorable. Hillary needed a week to recover for a 2 hour debate.
Hillary's pay-to-play scandal on her private foundation that catered more to dictators than Americans.
Wake up on thinking Hillary was qualified. Seriously. American was genius for not putting that life long, corrupt, incompetent, delusional, unhealthy, tired, worn out, self serving, non business, cheated on woman, scorned woman, denigrated, disbarred, failure of an elected has-been into any future office, with our without a pardon.
If these protestors are the face of the democratic party then they are DOOMED! Sane people are not going to want to be any part of this group.
Honestly, it was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. And there has never been anything like this in the history of our country. 1 million peacefully protesting in many cities. And people in other countries protesting in solidarity. How is this not sane? Sorry, but I'm just in awe especially by other countries being so supportive. It's pretty mind blowing. And this will be the shadow over Trump's presidency.
The more important question is why is trump such a sore and nasty assed "winner"?!
