While I am extremely disappointed in the Trump win, I actually am sort of proud of America honestly. Establishment, markets, wallstreet, and all the other monied interests were rooting for a Clinton win. She outspent him 15 to 1. And that didn't happen.

I'll never again think that the people don't truly hold the power in America. You can't buy an election.

Whites are the establishment. They put him there.

If you think the establishment republicans and democrats wanted a Donald Trump win. Well.....

Edit: Lol if you really think Wallstreet actually wants no TPP? Cmon guys.

As long as that person isn't a woman, it's totally viable for anyone to become president.

Hillary Clinton lost the national election by a couple of %'s. Women absolutely can become the president.

I seriously almost had a panic attack last night. I have no idea what this rear end in a top hat is going to do.

Presidential elections happen. lovely candidates get in. Donald Trump isn't the first, and he won't be the last. Time has a way of erasing problems of the day. In 10 years we're gonna look back on this day and find things are pretty wildly different. I hope SA is still around in that time, because I hope this post gets archived.

Americas problem is what it's always been: white people.

You know for someone who complains about racism you seem willing to engage in it.

Don't believe me? Try out this sentence. "America's problem is what its always been: Hispanic people."

Wow this coming from someone who is ok with the result? Who would have guessed???????

Whoa there. I can get people lashing out and misunderstanding my post because they haven't actually read it or attach additional meanings to it. It's fine. It's a problem we liberals have. Whatever. I knew what I was getting into.

But this? This is a bridge too drat far. Acceptance is a vastly different thing than "being ok with". I'm extremely disappointed in the election, but also understand and accept it.

I'm angry as hell how Warren and Sanders said they'd cooperate with the president-elect. We know full well who he is, what he's now capable of, and what his cronies are planning. This is the time to declare our full opposition to him, dammit

Of course you'd cooperate with the president-elect. The peaceful transition of power is the point. You think they won't oppose him when he gets in office? Get real.

Really happy to see some print and TV media doing some self reflection that they are out of touch, and in fact working in opposition to so much of the country.

Maybe we can see a return to unbiased, Edward R Murrow journalism, even if the face of someone you consider a total moron.

Ha ha no that's unprofitable. They'll contemplate their navels then go right back to it.
