That's not actually how it works. The people who voted for Trump are the ones responsible for Trump being president. If they hadn't voted for Trump, then Trump wouldn't be president.

Clinton would've just done a bunch of dumb poo poo drone strike bullshit in the middle east, building a mountain of corpses for no reason other than that's what the Washington consensus demands

Trump is giving us that, plus maybe cleansing nuclear fire.

IDGI. Like half the countries worth mentioning had women leaders by now, why's US so special. Freaking India had a female PM in the early 80s...

Yeah, I don't really understand why a female president of the US would even be that big of a deal. There's been female Prime Ministers of tons of countries for years and years. Margaret Thatcher, Angela Merkel... hell, even India and Turkey have had them. Why is the gender of the US president so important?

Actually getting a black guy in the white house seems like a much, much bigger deal. Or a gay guy. Or a Jew. *cough cough I voted for Bernie Sanders cough*

Recently, rich white girls have started to pretend that they're some kind of oppressed group when they're really.... not. At all. Not even remotely.

Meanwhile these same white girls who act all "oppressed" clutch their purses when a brother walks by. And then maybe call the cops because they thought that black guy was breaking into his own car.

I'm loving overjoyed. We were boned either way, but this way is way more funny and goddamned self centered Democrats at any cost are getting a pretty good comeuppance.

Tell you what, don't change a thing about the DNC and let's see what happens. Maybe 2016 was a fluke.

America was ready for economic populism and the corporatists in the DNC strangled their populist candidate in the crib with dirty tricks and now that they lost are whining about the dirty tricks done to them. In the history of US politics, nobody deserved to lose as much as Hillary. Trump is an unqualified idiot, but he's exactly what the political establishment on both sides deserves.

Amusing ploy but wrong. She and Bill are entitled to secret service protection for life. They changed the law in 1994 to only provide protection for ten years post-presidency but Obama changed it back so all presidents get a lifetime detail.

I just learned that Nixon was the only president to relinquish his lifetime protection.

The outcome of an election is not determined by those who vote, but by those who don't vote. Since 1945 or so, we have had pretty close elections, with not much more than half of the people voting. In the 1968 election about 80 million voted, and about 50 million qualified to vote did not. The outcome was determined by the 50 million who didn't vote. If you could have got 2 percent of the nonvoters to the polls to vote for your candidate, you could have elected him. And that has been true of most of our recent elections. It's the ones who don't vote who determine the outcome.
