Fucking great.

Are we going to resume a new golden age of Comedy Central?
How did Finland recover?
TPP is fucked
Case got dropped, aka he cut a fat check to the victim.Doesn't Trump still have a rape case in December?
From a friend who works construction in California all his Spanish male coworkers spoke of voting trump, a lot of them didn't want to vote for a woman.
When do you think Clinton going to do her concession speech?
I realize that and in four years I still think the talk of gloom/doom will be overrated. I think yall are giving Trump way too much credit. Is it a shitty result? Imo both would have been. Either one end of the world? Hardly. Maybe its just me but I'm not setting my doom clock.Uh, that's because Obama had a republican senate that kicked and scream the whole way. Guess what kind of senate Trump will have?
Dems lost EVERYTHING. Things will move FAST.
The only people who have anything to look forward to are white, straight males. I weep for my country as a white, straight male.
I'm sorry. I am Californian and we tried. Just wait until it comes to appointing judges.
I saved u a seat, right next to me. But fuck man, Corey Lewendickhead is not making this pill any harder to swallow on CNNDon't worry. I'll take my L. Never before have I been so disappointed in my country.
GG's trump supports. Guess I was wrong.
FUCK YOU JON STEWART
FUCK YOU STEVEN COLBERT
I HOPE YOUR SHOW GETS AXED YOU ABANDONED YOUR POST
Well, if nothing else, Virginia did not become a "right to work" state.
So we Virginians have that going for us.
I'm fairly confident that once people actually see Trump in action with the president's day-to-day itinerary, they're going to turn on him hard. Supporters could hand-wave his peccadilloes and utter ineptitude with communication away when it was against someone they'd been trained to boo and hiss for 20 years, but when he's making us a laughing stock on the world stage or delivering some tone-deaf address about a national tragedy? His approval rating is going to crater, the Republicans that enabled him will be radioactive next election cycle.
Whereas with Hillary, I'm sure no matter how well she did, the right-wing would just fire off the same constant stream of unsubstantiated potshots that she was terrible, and Dems would suffer for it next go-round.
Now Repubs have the burden of accountability, and they've just appointed the worst possible person to bear it. It's bitter, bitter medicine for liberals now, but we may very well come out stronger for it.
In the end noone can predict which candidate will be the better leader. So lets see.
Its kinda funny looking back at all the mocking and arrogance towards Trump from press and celebrities now.
You understand that his party now controls:
- The Presidency
- The Senate
- The House
- The Supreme Court
right? That's all 3 branches of government, and both houses of Congress. They literally can do whatever they want and get away with it. There's no checks and balances or vetos at play anymore.
The Supreme Court takeover especially will haunt America for decades.

Don't worry. I'll take my L. Never before have I been so disappointed in my country.

I made a post about how I'm disappointed at the result as a bi citizen and lo and behold, two straight white males laughed at my concerns.I'm fucking livid right now.

Gf dumped me.
DIdn't get job i interviewed for
trump is president.
this has been a shitty day for me.
One thing for damn sure though: I will never trust GAF when it comes to elections.
Is Hillary going to have them killed, too?Assuming comedians critical of Trump won't suddenly disappear under mysterious circumstances, sure.
I've never been more mad at my country right now, fuck off America. Me and my family didn't choose to have this skin color, my friends didn't choose to be LBGT, my friends didn't choose to be women, hope you like bankruptcy.
TBH when have you ever been proud of your country in the last 10 years?
A) Nobody has said to 'coddle racists'. This discussion is coming up because, again, people are literally throwing all white people into this bucket because of a slight majority voting for a certain candidate.
B) ASsuming everyone is racist simply because they like a racist candidate is dangerous thinking. It primarily comes down to them thinking certain issues are more important. Period. Do I think it's right to do that? Obviously not, I didn't vote for Trump. But I do think it does no good to scream at the top of your lungs at somebody about how terrible they are if you expect them to take you seriously, because...
C) YOU NEED THESE PEOPLE. At least some of them. If you didn't, Hilary would've won. You are never going to meet anyone in the middle to work out the issues in the country if you close the door before the conversation begins. Plenty of them might not meet you halfway either, fuck those people, but if you won't do it either then you're never going to get anywhere.
Racist white people are a SUBSET of people in the country, a relatively small one most likely. Then you've got the 'diet racist' white people - which I think it's more accurate to describe as racially insensitive rather than racially hateful as people would characterize them. These are people that just don't care about racial stuff, maybe have misinformed opinions in many cases, but more than anything they care more about other aspects than race. THis is probably the majority component of what we're talking about. Beyond these people, are those that vote for Trump for entirely non-racial reasons, but actually are super uncomfortable with his racial assertions, these people are probably a small minority as well. Finally, you move to white people that didn't even vote republican. Not a majority, but a VERY large number (obviously).
When you start saying "Fuck white people" you're alienating every single one of those groups, when the reality is the only one worth alienating is the first one - the actual racist fucks. The only one you can AFFORD to alienate.
One thing for damn sure though: I will never trust GAF when it comes to elections.
Everyone gets the blame except Hillary and the DNC.
Excuse my ignorance since I don't know much about politics, are Republicans against social security and Medicare? My dad voted for Trump and he's on Medicare and recieves a monthly SS check so I'm worried about that now.
