I just cut two women I otherwise love out of my life/off social media because I cannot. I simply cannot condone this lack of knowledge, empathy or understanding of basic golden rule kindness and concern. I do not KNOW these people. I’m done. Grow a heart or we’re through.

Yes. Said as a white person. This is a white people thing. White people did this. This is on white people and only white people. Hillary Clinton could have been the world’s most inspiring candidate and it would not have mattered. White people wanted Trump. And got him.

I’m still in disbelief that this country elected Obama twice and now... this. All the hope I felt in 2008 has just completely vanished. I think back to watching him take the oath of office, how hopeful I was that we were finally moving forward and now it’s like.. poof, gone.

It is Nate’s fucking fault. Apparently he can’t do math. How many people looked at these bullshit predictions and said “she’s got it, I’m staying home.”

I want to slap the Nates - Silver and Cohn - so hard! Which I know is a horrible response and it isn’t their fault and blah blah blah I am so angry today and don’t care I’m on the warpath for everyone.

I’ve said this before here but Trump was the backlash to the incredible leap forward that was Obama. 2 steps forward, 1 step back, as usual.

Same in Florida. Fuck everyone of them and their ‘protest vote’.

I’m an American of Mexican blood. I woke up at 4 am, saw results and seriously wept. Like heaving, sobbing, whimpering. It’s not so much Trump being president, it’s that I always pictured America as the shining city on the hill, the idealist country, filled with intelligence and freedom and decency. It is so…

This is about whiteness more than anything else. I am so angry right now. I am that fucking trope today. America your history has failed me and now your future has, too.

The margin of victory for Trump in Michigan and Wisconsin was less than the total of Jill Stein voters in both sates. If those precious little babies had simply voted strategically the “meaning” we are all about to start deriving from this shit-show would have been radically different.

Third-party voters and the “They’re equally bad, so I just didn’t vote!” geniuses as well.

God

Fuck trump, fuck you and goddamn fuck America.

I mean, we don’t have the House or the Senate. We don’t have the Presidency and we won’t have the Supreme Court for...decades maybe. We are truly fucked.

“Why can’t we just use nukes?”

To CNN for hiring those fucktit douchebag racist fuckfaces to defend Trump:

This is the worst of all.

If you haven’t seen it, look up Van Jones’ remarks from tonight about how race factored into this election. He refers to it as a “whitelash”. It was as much about fighting back against a broken political system as it was the conservative white population fighting back against the great strides we’ve made around…

Trayvon Martin.

That we’re still immeasurably more racist and more sexist than anyone might have thought possible? Absolutely.
