Chris Christie is a cautionary tale for anyone who thinks that by sticking to Trump they will be rewarded for their loyalty. After everything he did for Ompa Loompa Hitler, all he got for his trouble was to first see the VP be taken, then lose the head of the transition team, and now not a single word of him being…

71% of NJ voters thought he should have been charged in Bridgegate.....is this the SAME Christie that led “Lock Her Up” chants? WHY YES. IT IS.

Of the many post-election thinkpieces I’ve read, this one by Rebecca Traister may have come closest to expressing why I, like others in this thread, are still grieving: http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/11/hillary-clinton-didnt-shatter-the-glass-ceiling.html

We don’t deserve her and never did. I hope she never wears makeup again and chills with her grandkids (if she enjoys that) and if those fucks try to indict her moves to Brunei or something.

every time I see a new picture of her hiking in the woods, looking serene and like herself-sans the required lady uniform of hmu I cry because she deserves so much more than what we gave her. That woman is a goddamn treasure and this country fucked up.

Her slogan, “GO AHEAD AND TELL ME THAT I’M JUST THE SAME AS DONALD TRUMP, LIBERAL IDIOTS! YOU GO RIGHT FUCKING AHEAD!”

Bravo! We are never going to have a woman president if we keep asking permission from the patriarchy to have a woman president.

Being clever? What do you think her “nationality” is, if not American?

Part US citizenship is not a thing. She’s a citizen. Her great-something-grandfather fought in Washington’s army in the Revolutionary War, for heaven’s sake. It’s hard to have deeper roots in this country than that.

Right there with you. I’m sick of hearing how much she’s “hated.” I liked and respected her and dammit her presidency would have been historic in so many ways.

Duckworth’s service could be overshadowed by her nationality.

On the one hand, yes, anything but an able-bodied, cis, straight, white man is going to be a more of a gamble. On the other hand, that sort of an argument is what keeps the conga line of old, white dudes in power going and going and going and goooooiiiiiiing...

Eventually, something’s gotta give. The system must be…

I feel the same. Someone in the next town still has an “I’m ready for Hilary” sign up and it makes me sad to drive by it.

I have loved her since she was FLOTUS...so I feel you. Are you a member of PSN?

i know it’s not an invitation but i love her too and i think we did her wrong.

i’m glad she quit wearing makeup because she knows she never has to give a fuck about our asshole opinions again.

Same. I mean, I’m thinking about 2020 because the next four years are gonna be a long, drawn-out dumpster fire and I can’t wait for them to be over. But I’m with you otherwise. Still depressed she didn’t win because I genuinely like her and she would have been so good at it.

Bwahaha. The electoral college is an affront to democracy, but instead of addressing that you’re begging everyone to stop wishing for it to do the exact thing it was put in place for: obstruct the democratic process to head off a bad leader taking power.

He wouldn’t have saved us from anything. He’s a terrible campaigner and he does best as a politician when he’s not required to do any improving, and he literally has all of the same weaknesses Hillary does and few of her strengths, and the exact same politics. The man was called Senator Mastercard, for fuck’s sake.

I keep laughing mirthlessly to myself, remembering the days when I was concerned about George W. Bush’s push to the right and extreme Neo-Conservatism.

anything that erodes Trump’s credibility, mandate and authority—even a little—gets a vaguely helpless nod / desperate thumbs up combo from me.
