That argument cuts both ways. The vitriol leveled at Clinton supporters and Clinton herself over the last week has been vicious. We expect Republicans to be sore winners, but getting kicked while we are down by disgruntled Bernie supporters is particularly painful and resentment breeding. You are going to need the…

Nope.

Bullshit. I am being as vulgar as our future President. Why Not? These fucks don’t respond to anything other than “real talk” so fuck all Trump supporters and assfucks that voted Jill Stein. That might get it done since that “when they go low we go high” got us nowhere. I love Michelle Obama with every fiber of…

Not a serious question, but I will answer it. The DNC didn’t “run” Clinton. She chose to run, as is her right. Cuomo, and any Dems with presidential ambitions did not want to challenge her. So when it became clear she intended to run, other Dems made a calculated decision to wait for a better opportunity. That allowed…

How interesting that Peter fucking Thiel, now thoroughly in with Trump, was the one to turn off Gawker.

this. i suspended my facebook account indefinitely because i couldn’t stop myself from freaking out on all the people who spent the last six months being so AGONIZED by their choices because a competent experienced liberal politician is TOTES the same as an actual fascist reality tv star. then when the nazi cheeto…

Please don’t leave out how Bernie supporters treated anyone who didn’t share their line of thinking. Up until the DNC nomination, I was called a cunt and a shill, I was told I had no idea how politics work, even though I have been following it since Bill Clinton first ran, and I have a bachelors in History (so I’m not…

I can forgive people who are just bad at math.

Bullshit. Every single Clinton supporter I know-myself included-tried exhaustively to explain to people why a third party vote was a vote for Trump. We also tried exhaustively to sway Trump supporters—and yes without using insults. I voted for Bernie in the primaries and realized the need to support Hillary when she…

I had guy who told me he put in a write in vote. I flat out said, “congratulations. You just helped him win.” i was especially angry at him because he just smirked and said that Clinton’s already been president, she shouldn’t allowed to be again. I pointed out that, hey, the Clinton years were considered pretty good…

This morning I was reading about the protests across the country and those that are being organized. Some of the protest leaders admitted they voted third party or not at all. I was thinking, should we stage a mini-protest within a protest against you!? I still can’t face a couple of friends who were rabidly against…

Canadians have heart that break too.

Jesus. I almost hope she made it up, because if she’s being charged and prosecuted for the crime of being a hate crime victim ... I can’t even imagine.

Was she shocked when he was actually elected? That’s what I want to know in general: was it like Brexit in that the people who voted in favour of leaving the EU were shocked to learn that their votes counted?

Can you just not click on the articles and instead shut the fuck up?

nah

“I didn’t think my vote would count!” ... a la Brexit.

Too right. Like, do you guys really want to start talking about sheer disappointment? Do you guys really want to go into 200+ years of flawed, corrupt, unlikeable, disappointing white male candidates that people voted for because they were the lesser evil in the end? You guys really want to mount that horse? I don’t…

This is the feeling I’ve been trying to put into words every time somebody implies we shouldn’t be excited about a woman US president because she’s not a 100% perfect paragon of progressive values. Like fuck you, there’ve been disappointing male leaders for centuries, it’s time for a woman to occasionally let us down.

And yet, you have not yet written a four-paragraph essay about how you didn’t really have to, or want to, and how imperfect she is, and what a struggle it was to reconcile your personal purity-tests against the grim meathook realities of the candidates, and how you’d much rather vote for someone you’re personally…
