I’ll leave the blame game to others. I’m making cookies and tea for everyone, Obama supporters, Clinton Supporters, Sanders supporters, who are interested in building a winning coalition in 2018 and 2020.

If there was no other reason to vote for Hillary (and I believe there are many), SCOTUS was enough. We are well and truly fucked.
The reality will hit them when their hated Obamacare is repealed and replaced with tax-deductability for whatever insurance they can afford, without subsidy, on the open market. The reality will hit them when their Social Security is “reformed” into insignificance. The reality will hit them when their Medicare is…
My 16 year old daughter came out of her room this morning and sobbed on my shoulder saying, “Hate trumped reason”
Agreed. Sanders got caught up in his own ego to the point where by the time he was ready to support Clinton most people found it disingenuous. He allowed his moronic supporters to buy a rigged primary system. He didn’t give a fuck about America. He gave a fuck about his own ego.
Bernie Sanders owes the world an apology today. Not for running, which is anyone’s right, but for not stopping the irrational hate and conspiracy theories earlier on and for insisting on fighting to the convention even after it was clear he had lost. I hope he will never forgive himself for what he has done.
46.9%? Wtf America!
Thank you for this. I’ve been crying all morning for these exact reasons.
I am a cisgendered heterosexual white male. I have nothing to lose in a Trump America.
I’m with her....still.
You’ve marched right on to the bargaining stage, then? I’m still grappling with denial.
Worse than 2000 by leaps and bounds.
The referendum is clear: Americans don’t like women in positions of power, and will vote for anything at all against that, given the choice.
Eight years, assuming he lives. The people dumb enough to vote for him this time will still be dumb enough to vote for him next time. The fact that their miserable shitty lives will not have improved will still be the fault of the Mexicans and the Muslims and the blacks.
The free press as we know it is gone and done. Trump has already stated that if he wins he’s going to do everything possible to put them out of business. Then again, most of the mainstream media gave him a pass on his BS and liked him because he delivered clicks and ratings. They gave passing mentions to his scandals…
I can only speak for myself but all the polls pointed to a Hillary win. I think it’s clear that people just flat-out lied on those polls. I think the polls gave me - and probably most people - a false sense of security.
I felt amazing today. I voted Sanders in the primary, supported Hillary since, but today was the first day I was really fucking PUMPED. How could this have happened? What are we going to do? I feel sick also. I don’t know what to say.
ETA DISMISS THE TROLLS
Goddamn. I started this day at 4:45 a.m. with so much hope and optimism, worked the polls all day, just dropped off the supplies and I come home to this. I literally feel sick to my stomach. How is this happening? I am angry and terrified.
