Agree. Marquette, for example, had Clinton up by 6 in Wisconsin. That was very off. The national polls were slightly off (other than LA Times, which was completely off), but not by much. Once the popular vote is fully counted, it looks like Clinton will win the national popular vote by about 1.5%.

Even worse: he’s reportedly going to appoint Giuliani as SOS. Giuliani has zero foreign policy experience, not to mention he’s a complete lunatic. My guess is Giuliani wants that position because he has a vendetta against Clinton (thanks to the 2000 Senate election), and Trump is more than willing to give him what

Silver constantly warned that this election was different given the volatility in the polls and the large amount of undecided voters. He also warned that there was a significant possibility that Trump would win the Electoral College, but would lose the popular vote. Nate Cohn at the Upshot, however, was completely

Not to mention he won’t be able to bring back coal jobs— another promise he made. Sure he can roll back environmental regulations, but that doesn’t deal with the price of natural gas or the lack of demand from China for our coal.

Lots of liquor. If they bring up politics, I’m not holding back. They based their decision on blind hatred of Hillary, and now they must live with the consequences of their votes.

I am not looking forward to next week (Thanksgiving) where I have to go home to a family full of Trump supporters. They’ll laugh about how they’re right, but they won’t be laughing in four years when Trump’s tax cuts cause a deficit, which will require cuts to things like Medicaid (which my grandmother needs for her

I’ve seen several Facebook posts with some variation of: “Sure Trump said some terrible things, but you millennials are just crybabies and need to get over yourselves. Let’s give Trump a chance to get rid of corruption in government.”

IIRC, his companies filed for chapter 11 six times :)

His supporters will engage in mental gymnastics to somehow rationalize why it’s okay for him to withhold emails, but it isn’t for Clinton to do the same. Just like how they are more than willing to turn a blind eye to the Trump Organization’s potential ties to foreign governments, while screaming into the void about

From what I read, Kushner’s father is still running the business

He’s always been a rough and tumble politician, and really is brilliant in terms of his machine in NV. But now that he is retiring he clearly gives zero fucks.

She will never sleep because she will have to constantly monitor Trump, who will be tweeting at all hours of the night. That’s poetic justice for her.

Yeah, and so was the election of the Nazi party in the 1930s...

“I will be the best for the gays”— Donald Trump ::nominates Mike Pence days later::

Then it isn’t a blind trust, and I have very serious concerns about his conflicts of interest. He will take actions that enrich him and his children, even if it isn’t in America’s best interests.

I actually just read an article where Trump’s general counsel said the company will be run by the kids in a “blind trust.” That isn’t a blind trust...

Now that he is president-elect, will Trump place the Trump Organization into a blind trust, or will his children run it? If it’s the latter I think that is a YUGE conflict of interest. I doubt he will place itin a blind trust— he’ll probably be our very own Berlusconi.

I don’t think he’s good at playing dumb. He’s in many ways like Berlusconi in Italy— who didn’t do wonders for Italy’s economy, to put it lightly.
