Actually I think the GOP is still gonna need to restructure eventually (soon?) it's just that they got a big shot of Trump Brand Populism Juice in the arm and they were facing a group of overconfident idiots who also need to restructure


hmmm both parties are poo poo

not the same, but both poo poo

I'm almost positive there's going to be some retribution in the party.

He never wanted to be president. He doesn't want to leave NYC. He wanted to win a popularity contest.

He didn't win a popularity contest.

He won a hosed up nerd's version of a popularity contest.

Trump is going to spend the next 2 months coming up with the sickest burn to whisper into Obama's ear during inauguration.

Obama is going to spend the next 2 months doing the same, but for the note on the Oval Office desk.

It will be interesting to see how or if the rust belt and coal country react if they realize they were conned by Trump and he can do nothing about their jobs which will continue to decline.

im going to enjoy watching them cry about it. they voted for the orange they get to deal with his lies about their return to greatness.

If you believe that story about the call between John Kasich's people and the Trump campaign, Trump will be more of a VP than anything else, so enjoy Shadow President Pence

"To be quite frank, Platinum sucks at making games. Vanquish was terrible and Metal Gear Rising: Revengance was so boring it put me to sleep."

As I understand it, there is no legal or constitutional restraint on any business activity or interest or investment on the part of the POTUS. The question has never really arisen before. And we will not know what his ties with foreign business and governments are because his business dealings are partially secret. Good luck stopping Trump TV or anything else he tries to do.

E: I mean short of embezzlement/fraud/etc. He can do what he wants with private money/his money as POTUS. I think he has to release his taxes as POTUS but that doesn't apply retrospectively, does it?

E2: petit choux has pointed out that blind trusts usually handle POTUS business interests. My mistake

85 % of it. Again, talking like the Democrats just lost with 1/3 of the voters they had 2012 isn't the right basis.

no this is objectively one of the worst things to happen to civilization as a whole in my lifetime, but it's not because of any one thing

there are multiple points at which any number of people could have done something differently, and all us should examine that poo poo carefully and call out the errors that maybe they can not be repeated

but pointing to any one person or group and saying it's you, you did this is just scapegoating

"you could have prevented this" isnt the same thing as "you did this" and we'll just eat ourselves if we dont try to address this whole clusterfuck more in the former style than the latter

blame, dogmatic ideological purity, and purging/punishing dissent are what built this rural white monster—we can and should have an ongoing conversation about the acceptable limits of our compromises and how to prevent/recover from mistakes, but just pushing the sliders all the way to the top of the scale isnt going to help

third wayism is and always has been imo trash, but im still happy to work w someone who doesnt align completely w my politics in order to advance a common goal. hillary is nowhere near as far left progressive as i am but i was happy to vote for her in the general because she would have pushed the nation as a whole in a generally progressive direction, and every step to the left is a victory

and we can fight the immediate bullshit while also more carefully examining things, and its kind of critical to do both


best take overall imo, can we close the thread on this 1? thanks mods
