I thought “she’s got this.”

As I noted above, it’s not just the work. It’s giving up your life for four to eight years.

Right, and, really, being U.S. president means a lot more than having to “work.” It means giving up your life as a private citizen in the largest way possible. It means not being able to do what you want when you want to. It means doing away with any kind of real privacy. It means dealing with constant and very public

Ha!

I’m being completely serious and not engaging in wishful thinking here — but, honestly, does ANYONE think Donnie is going to be able to hack this for four years? For even one year? Six months?!

I sometimes eat my pizza with a fork, too, dammit.

Yeah, I liked Weiner’s passion and willingness to call people out for their bullshit, but the dude is really unhinged and just as narcissistic as the Orange One.

Yeah, it’s nice to see those who can still display their balls. Obama, unfortunately, now has to really hold back in order to facilitate peaceful transfer of power, which I understand. So he’s playing super nice and being somewhat complimentary to Donnie, which he has to do but is kind of sad to see.

Did you watch the 60 Minutes interview? If Tiffany said one word at all throughout that entire session, it was edited out for the final piece.

I was the ME at a digital news room back in 2012. Against my better judgment, I went ahead and ran Trump’s live YouTube video that was going to “blow the lid off” the election, blah, blah, blah.

Sure, I get that if you’re working on the campaign. That’s a very insider-y perspective. But do you think most of the general public (those not intimately involved in the political process) who supported HRC would be bothered?

OK, cool — honestly, I didn’t know much about her beyond the fact that she was one of Gilbert’s seemingly insufferable soul sistery-y friends.

Bernie IS 75. He’ll be just shy of 80 in 2020. People need to stop with this shit.

The point is that when you (the “broad” you) win, you will almost always justify it, and when you lose, you will always try to make excuses for it/claim it’s the other side’s fault.

How about every damn last one of them is a host?

Yeah — I’m trying to do a hefty amount of soul-searching rather than just finger-pointing. Not only would we be breathing a sigh of relief re the electoral college if it went our way, but we would also be laughing and pointing at the redneck Trumpsters who were openly protesting (if that did indeed happen, which I’m

I think we’re going to find out that there is a “reason” for this.

In all honestly, how do you think liberal pundits would be reacting if Trump had won the popular vote but Hillary won the electoral college and, thus, the presidency? Would we still think it was unfair, or would we be praising the Constitutional system that, thank GOD, protected us from an orange demagogue?

I’d love to hear what he and Michelle are saying in bed at night.

To be fair, most president-elects need a mentor, and call on past presidents to help them with the transition. That’s not the bad part about all of this.
