Good luck America, you're going to need it but fundamentally, this decision will affect the entire world too.

Brexit and this just proves democracy doesn't work.

Democracy doesn't work because the side you backed lost? Sounds very bitter.

Democracy works fine, if the politicians can't be arsed to put in work to sway people from making what others think are bad decisions then they are at fault.

The liberals have to face reality now. They thought that facts, competency, truth and humanity are important to the people in politics. But at the end fear, populism and publicity won. We wish for a better world, but we sadly don't life in one.

This, and the country is a lot dumber and more bigoted than anybody could have ever imagined.

Media worldwide has been peddling fear 24/7 for years. It's almost inevitable that it'll eventually soak into people

Even most of Fox News was non-stop beating on Trump during the last few months for all the terrible shit he said. The Trump surrogates got destroyed in every single interview they were in.

No. This was the choice of the american people and it's their fault, not "the media's".

That's pretty naive. Ask people why they hate Hillary Clinton and people can't even answer. They simply know the media told them to. You're essentially dispelling the power of propaganda

So, next season he'll make a reality t.v. show called 'The Candidate' and the winner gets to be V.P.

(it's depressing but I'm not surprised .. it's not that long ago since you re-elected George W. Bush when it was clear he was a buffoon)

I could allow a very small part of my brain to entertain the idea of him winning a very narrow race or neither getting to 270 but for him to wash her like this.....

Stunned isn't even the fucking word.....what in the hell.....?

Amazing speech! I got all teary-eyed. I just feel this very patriotic presence with him yet a humbled heart and yet a strong willed person. This man ...guys, those of you against him, let it go, lets just let this all go and rally together for our country and for our new President Mr. Donald Trump.

I feel this guy will be one of the best Presidents of our country, ever! He just has this humbled down to earth attitude that ..well , at times makes mistakes with his mouth but he learns and that's all that matters ..you can see this, we gotta let go of this nasty division and just unite! This man is going to help make America great again!

God Bless America! He was elected President for a reason!

What did he mean by this? said:
It's a n**** wake up call. Let it be known what the masses think of minorities. Let it be known that none of that "racism is dying with the older generations" shit is true (white millennials came out for Trump). Finally a politician that 'speaks his mind' and goes beyond the coded language to accomplish white supremacy. The reality of this country has been unearthed

It's true. Large swaths of the country just said black live don't matter. It's heartbreaking for the decent folk who believed thing were getting better.

Honest question. Was this the response when Bush got elected? I know he lost the popular vote.

Right now I feel like this is the start of the end of the world. Trump and his cronies will nuke some country, get nuked back, WWIII end of the world.

How bad am I overreacting?

"Racism still alive

Well I guess he was more right than any of us predicted.

I wouldn't blame anyone in the US right now who thought they may be discriminated against for tooling up.
I mean, every flavour of human other than white just became fair game for a sizeable group of already proven mentalists, not to mention a lot more fucking secret nut jobs. You know what, you may look at the UK and recent revelations as a hostile environment but I promise you 99% of it is loving, tolerant and welcoming country. When you've filled Canada, I implore you to try us out. We simply won't allow post Brexit out of the woodwork crazies to change our live and let live attitudes and if this result is a sledgehammer to the back of the head then you're the probably more of what we need :)

Edit: BBC presenters now losing plot after long night lol

From Scroobius Pip :-

America.
Take a deep breath.
Shit has gone very bad...but don't make the same mistake Britain made.
When the Brexit result came in, we lashed out.
We declared our country full of racists and idiots.
And it wasn't.
It was full of scared or misinformed people, sick of politicians...and then SOME racist idiots.
The trouble with lashing out was it gave the minority of racist idiots a sense of power.
A false sense of majority.
A sense of their views suddenly being acceptable and no longer having to hide them.
This led to a huge rise in racist attacks and incidents directly after the Brexit result.
We made a bad situation worse by throwing our toys out of our prams and tarring everyone with the same brush.
This.
Helps.
Nothing.
What you have now is a fucked up and shitty situation.
But you had that yesterday too.
Yesterday you had no good outcome on the ballot.
You had a terrible one and a slightly less terrible one
The worst happened, and that simply means you have to rally harder, be all the more vigilant, take action, take stands and do all you can to stop as many negative changes as you can.
When you got the first ever black president, full of hope... his hands were tied time and time again.
The great change promised was hindered and halted at every turn.
Turn abouts fair play.
Get your shoulder pads on and start blocking this trumped up piece of shit.
This election has shown how bullshit our political system is.
Prepare yourselves for the fight ahead.
Be ready to rally, to protest, to petition and to take any action needed, whenever it is needed.
Hold your head.
Hold your head.

Quoting. Always got time for Scroobius Pip.

Lash out at the powers that be, not yourselves.

Well, it happened. It actually happened.

Grading on the Trump curve (which let's not forget how massive that curve is) the speech hit the right notes, but actions will speak louder than words...

Liberal media's obsession with Trump helped him win the presidency. It's all fun and games until Trump wins the presidency.

He hasn't learned shit, and if you don't realize that, neither have you.

Today, America has become less great.

Those jobs aren't coming back you fucking retards. You just got conned so incredibly hard.

Oh, they can make them come back. It would massively fuck up the world economy and the workforce and working life of the USA of course. But that's how much the idiots don't care, and how easy a soundbite it is to say the jobs are coming back.

After everything he's said and his lack of respect for a lot of people, Americans or not, I'm just speechless.
