I said below that this is good news because it will never get 2/3 of each house and will piss off all the Republicans, but it occurs to me now that if it does somehow pass - term limits for Congress are a popular proposal - it’s a little scary. Reducing the legislature’s power relative to the executive is kind of a

Well, hey. Trump may have a blank check to destroy this county for everyone who isn’t wealthy, white and male, but we can all take comfort in the fact that Mitch McConnell will push back against congressional term limits. He’s truly the hero we deserve.

The most awesome thing about this is how much damage it will do to the people who actually voted for this person.

I can’t believe this is happening. I can’t believe this is happening. I can’t believe this is happening. That loop has been playing in my head all day.

If your fictitious woman had 3 husbands and 6 children by 3 men and cheated on all of them - like Trump, that woman would have been run out of the primaries on a rail.

And that’s going to get worse by a factor of a thousand, at least, now the GOP controls all three branches of government and the majority of states. There’s a very real possibility that they will be able to permanently disenfranchise enough people that violently racist, misogynistic white people will choose our

I will have nothing but a giant middle finger for anyone that suggests we “need to put aside our differences and come together as a country.” NO. FUCK YOU. We aren’t divided on tax code or trade deal details. These are assholes who literally want to force me to carry out a pregnancy I might get from being raped, these

I’ve gotten a lot of emails/tweets/texts about other organizations to add to this list—too many to properly respond to—so I’ll add a few more here. But before that:

I feel so stick to my stomach about everything.

The House. The Senate. The Justices.

I’ve been dizzy all day and I just want to hug HRC.

I had severe PTSD from the debates and now I just want to lay down under my desk and cry.

They’re just like ISIS except with a different invisible sky god.

Nothing makes me more sick to my stomach than the thought of the first black president having to smile and cede the White House to the chosen candidate of the KKK.

To my friends in the East, currently under the Shadow...your friends in the West have not forgotten you. And we are coming.

This idea that our fellow citizens are innately good people.

Hillary deserved better than to lose to this buffoon or to lose because people didn’t like her personality, but did that of her racist, sexist, xenophobic competition. FOH that was such BS.

To be fair, pretty sure voter suppression was at play.

Omg, yes fuck you Susan Sarandon. I hope you enjoy clinging to your ideological purity while Trump guts this country and drags us back to 1851 or whenever he believes America was great before.

AND FUCK YOU to all of the Bernie supporters who started the cycle of Hillary hate, revved it up, warmed up that engine and then passed it right on to Trump.Fuck you for that. This means you “The Slot.” Your dumb ass is guilty as charged.

I am a cisgendered heterosexual white male. I have nothing to lose in a Trump America.

I felt such incredible pride watching her concede—never have I admired her more than her confronting the greatest wall of adversity any of us has ever faced in public life. She was truly presidential through each oncoming wave of adversity and malice, starting 18 months ago. She WAS the president during her speech,
