Going from Obama to Trump
That's like telling your supermodel girlfriend you can only stay with her for 8 years and then after that you have to ditch her to start fucking with a fucking cactus

I think according to Barack and Michelle Obama it just amplifies who you already are.
So...
They were laughing and joking with each other at the end. The live video actually came off as genuine somehow.

I sure as hell do.
That's what I think a lot of people on the winning side don't quite understand. If this were a president Romney, or McCain, or even Bush, I might not agree with their policies but at least, in a broad sense, I would trust them to lead the country. Trump just scares me.

On the plus side, Trump doesn't look happy either. I expected a smug, shit-eating grin on his face.

I hope Obama just gave him good advice. The safety of alot of people and of the climate are hanging on the balance by a thread

You can see their closing comments, but they met for a 10-15 minute private chat and it ended up being one and a half hours. We can only speculate as to why.
Weird to think that all those crazy conspiracies about a lizard race or shadow council of "real" power forcing world leaders to do their bidding would actually be comforting if it were true...

He's going to hate governing.
Dude looked like it hurt to even talk about this. Like a real wtf moment.
He obviously said that not to scare the fuck out of people

Because he realized he just took one of the most stressful ass jobs in the world

Trump looked very nervous/anxious.

"The plan was that I would help get her elected. What the hell Barry?"
Let's make this a game.
It's easy to be smug from afar. Not so easy one on one in a room.
Also Obama probably just told him how much he's going to hate this job.

I mean what else would Obama have said?
"Man we are fuuuuuucked!!"

"Well I cut taxes for the wealthy and got us into a recession. Your job is to spend a lot to get us out. Then one of us comes back in and cuts taxes for the wealthy... See, this is how trickle up works."
JK, I'm not an economist.

He'll be Pence's puppet, and it will be bad.

Turns out "The Thing" was a documentary, and made a deal to only eat one person every 4-8 years.

Of course he's going to say that publicly. Obama is in no way encouraged by anything Trump says.

It's because he knows Trump will be the end of the Democrat opposition for a long time.
Obama would say that he was encouraged no matter what was actually said. Think about this for more than a few moments.

He looks like he is floored at the thought of him being president. Mr Garrison.

Sorry.
I still can't believe this orange dude is President.

In all honesty, I don't think he expected to get this far. He hoped he would, but now that he has, he sees what the position entails and probably doesn't want any part of it. Like many have stated, I strongly believe that Pence will be the real President here.
Exactly. What else do you expect the man to say?

Sorry, that's not what we want in a President anymore.
To be fair, this is actually the only reason I hold out hope he will be reasonable. He has no convictions. He just wants to be popular. Bush had an ethos. Trump may just take the path of least resistance.
I believe it was the author of Art of the Deal who had to get to know Trump to write it, who said that Trump didn't truly want to win, that his real dream scenario would be to lose by one electoral vote or .1% of the popular vote, so that he could claim that it was rigged and he's the rightful winner and President forever, without having to actually be President.

The very best outcome is the following:
Obama is Shadow President. Trump has an earpiece every hour of everyday, and Barry is feeding him information and making decisions for him. Backed up by Jeb Bush and Diamond Joe, Trump actually becomes the Ultimate Puppet President*
* in this scenario, Putin does not exist.

He's just hoping the sane people don't leave the country and leave him with the crazies.
This is my first time actually looking at the "final" map.
I'm not sure there's going to be any kind of widespread panic. That is one Red map. Even half of California is Red.
Wow
I don't know about anyone else, but spending the last years of my life in one of the most stressful job in the world doesn't sound fun. That might be sinking in.

Is it possible Trump being elected is saving the world from something worse? Like Putin would have started World War 3 or something instead?
I'm just tryng to make myself feel better a bit.

To be fair, that's not a statement you can make about our next POTUS.
Instead of a 7/10 which is the other option she gave you. And for whatever reason your dumb ass chose the cactus (not personally you, lol).
It's always quite red. Rural areas have a low population but lean heavily R and take up large swaths of land.
