My guess is that this movement fizzles out. There's a very good chance that the most insider of insiders gets elected tonight.



What's strange about this election is that many of Trump's policies, especially his tax plan, are not particularly favorable for the working man. Yet somehow he has developed a reputation as the working man candidate.
Hey, if you're fed up w/ welfare & paying other people's bills -- than vote Trump. He doesn't want to pay THEIR way. What problem have you w/ this? Why don't you donate your entire wealth to me -- if you're so liberal & socialistic? Hell, I'll take it. "Beggars can't be choosy" in this country, is the US motto nowadays. Ridiculous & and you're HAPPY w/ this mindest? Huh, I think not sir. But if you need an acct to deposit in, let me know.

Hahahaaa, you're a joke & continue to be (oops, pc I am my dear friend just like you, haha) condescending as you are to all here boss...

I agree about the list...except that the stock market went down so much, so fast, when it became apparent that Trump was winning, that they shut it down.

Don't look at your 401k for a while!

OK, looks like we are somewhat safe for four years. Unless the leftists riot when King Donals shuts off their EBT cards.

Amended to add: It was people of all colors, all faiths, all classes that put Trump over the top, including women and lots of "Democrats". This election was not about "rural white folks".

Further amended to add: I'm glad it's over. I hope to hear less about the "Tribulation", and nuclear war with Russia, and all the rest, now that there is much less uncertainty in peoples' minds.

The People have spoken. Long live The People!

That's OK...I heard his speech about re-building, roads, etc. Sounds like there will be plenty of work for them to do so that they can EARN money.

I can't be sure, but I think what gave FL to Trump was the Cuban hispanic vote, which is typically Republican. No one knew how they'd vote. I think we know now.

Also, more women voted for Trump than was thought.

There really aren't enough white men to vote a candidate in. If you look at the numbers.

but the TV talking heads assured us the Republican Party was dead and all Trump could attract for votes was older white men

At the chance of sounding like a nationalistic bigot as my Ex liked to call me i shall continue...

Long live the People, and long live the Union of this glorious nation, and here is to another 240 years of American greatness.
