Donald Trump was an anomaly and even he didn't think he had a shot at winning, I am pretty sure.

I didnt call it wrong, did you?

Their consistent message is ANGER, ANARCHY, AND HATE-MONGERING.

And yet they are just as reprehensible as their Dem counterparts. People are whacked.

There is a tendency to embrace polls when the outcome seems to validate one’s perceptions and dismiss polls when outcomes do not.

Its gone way beyond that. People now dismiss Presidential elections because the outcome did not fit their perceptions.

America is much bigger and better than anything that Trump, Obama, Clinton or Bush 1 or 2 can do to it.

I have way more faith in this country than you do.

I don't like Trump but some on the left are way too dramatic.
