HOW DARE YOU NOT VOTE THE WAY YOU WERE TOLD TO VOTE!!
The elitist message now being sent is:
" WE SHOULD BE IN CHARGE SO SHUT UP DO AS YOU ARE TOLD, GIVE US YOUR VOTE AND MONEY OR WE WILL BURN YOU OUT"
I guess tolerance is a one way street.
We MUST(under pain of prosecution) be tolerant of them but they don't need to be tolerant of us because they are above such things(such as their own spoken philosophy).
Looks like the real deplorables are the Hillary supporters. Wasn't it Bill Clinton that said when he kicked Bush 1's ass "Its The Economy Stupid". She forgot that!
The only areas of the country that voted for her were the big cities where the most government give ways are centered. The real reason for the protests is they are afraid their preferential treatment. Trump said the system was rigged by big media promoting her and said he would fight the results IN COURT if he thought the result was unfair, he never promoted violence. Hillary has the same LEGAL option(s) but since she lost big time there is no point. Hillary's staff was the one hiring people to start violence at Trump rallies. Never has Trump ever said anything against gays or gay rights, a businessman has to be "colorblind" or he will not thrive today. He has said NO group should have the right to infringe on the rights of another group. IE ALL LIVES MATTER! Trump's election offices were the ones that were smashed and burned while the worst that happened to a Hillary office was a load of manure was dumped in the parking lot and that happened 4 and 8 years ago too.
The electoral college is there to allow the vast rest of the country to have a voice that can't be dominated by a concentrated group.
That is the reason for the senate. The rest of the country is tired of paying for the cities that cannot support themselves. We work they sit.
The ones marching are incensed that the people they have been abusing for years have awakened and are pissed off enough to try and stop it.
I am now proud to be counted as a Trump Deplorable!

That's not me. I'm not doing any of those things. This accomplishes nothing and they should be ashamed. I am however humored by this revelation.
If you guys think the President has too much power for nukes and drones that don't affect real people. Policymaking is the forte of veterans. To create a bill and write is without leaks takes years of time and then they may be thrown out due to ambiguity in definition if some clause or contradiction with some existing laws in fringe cases. It's easy to say we will build a wall than to draft a bill and get it passed as a law.
Presidents are known to make election promises that they are naive about. Obama promised pulling out troops in a year from Afghanistan and he tried very hard but couldn't keep his promise, even now there are a fraction of soldiers in Afghanistan.
Sooner or later Trump will realize he cannot do anything like he speaks he will. Moreover he will be helplessly flailing.
I think both parties would have withdrawn and allowed Obama a third term.
Nevertheless, I have accepted the will of the voters, just like I accepted Bill Clinton's election over GHW Bush by a plurality of votes. How many Democrat votes do you suppose were sucked up by H Ross Perot's third party run? Damn few.
The point is that the vast majority of the voters on both sides are ready to place support with Trump, whatever we think of him personally. Gloating isn't becoming. Being an asshole isn't becoming. It's time for healing so that we can all move forward.
“the election is over, i won, get over it”
and peace and prosperity swept over the land as dougster’s economic boom took off. scratch that part, peace did not return and dougster’s economic boom never happened just 8 years of a shitty economy.
but out of the law offices of dewy cheetum & howe emerged johnsmith69 with exciting news on how to pay a teenaged hooker for sex. the angry white men stopped their rioting not because they didn’t already know how to pay a hooker for sex but because smith’s incessant nattering about his midlife crisis bored them all so much that they went home. and it was san_jose_guy who was the lone moron who listened to smith’s stories which saved the rest of the world from having to commit mass suicide. obama was so grateful that his first illegal executive order was that the SNAP program could be used to buy unlimited amounts of gravy. and with that our young “i dance for money but i is gonna be a lawyer, ninabambina went to have her new “hillary was robbed ‘08” tattoo removed from her left butt cheek.
so now trump could repeat what obama said but no one would listen. but fear not for i have the answer to stop all the rioting. someone tell larryfisherman that all the skanky girls are out under the bleachers smoking cigarettes and that if he goes out there right now he can probably touch some boob and maybe even get some front room DFKing. then when he runs out to spread the word of his discovery the rioters will go home and lock their doors, well lock their parents’ doors that is, and hide from larry.
so go larry, go. time is of the essence but under no circumstances let any of those skanky whores sell you any dances. that is a chumps game. just treat them like you would any civi girl and sock the bitch in the mouth
sorry everyone but i overslept or i would have recommended this earlier. that would have saved our not young anymore, still dancing for money and still gonna be a lawyer some day ninabambina from having to get her new “hillary was robbed ‘16” tattoo removed from her right butt cheek.
I don't know enough about your political process or the way things are in the U.S. to make a considered judgement on whether the outcome was right or wrong but I know her fate was partially sealed when Clinton used the term 'deplorables'. Just like Cameron when he said about UKIP supporters "Ukip is sort of a bunch of ... fruitcakes and loonies and closet racists mostly".
By the way is Hilary still alternating between the shredder and the delete key?
If President Obama helps with a smooth transition he will earn some respect.

Does a good job of speaking to this Basket of Deplorables issue, she doesn't see it that way, and she regrets that Clinton had said that.

I know some won't even look at the article because its from Huffington (aka left of media center) but its interesting that a staffer basically said "Fuck Off" to Donna Brazile and blamed her and Wasserman-Schultz and the whole line of the Democratic establishment before them of losing the election by running "the wrong candidate at the wrong time". You might not agree with the young staffer on everything he said but I give him credit for sticking it to the DNC Politburo. Wish I could have been a fly on the wall.
If Trump ever gets this information, he needs to make sure our GDP grows in the last year over the previous in an election year. I heard if not, the incumbent tends to lose.
I actually had one stripper tell me she supported Obama because of all the free stuff she was going to get: Phone, healthcare, college were her examples. I almost laughed but she was nice, very pretty but hopelessly nieve and uneducated. I did not have the heart to tell her that no one or very few would likely not be getting any of the "free" stuff because it was just political promises.
I would say most strippers did not get obama care since it require income statements to get the subsidies and most girls don't declare their income and are part of the underground economy.
Then we will be right back where we began.
What a piece of shit he is.
I'm not a fan but seems the media might have portayed a slightly slanted narrative pandering towards a certain crowd that called for democracy then whined and rioted after they got it.
------------------------------------------
That's incredibly naive, @25. Nobody has a fucking clue what Trump is going to do. Even Trump doesn't have a fucking clue what he's going to do. In the next 4 yrs he can reshape the Supreme Court, gut health benefits (both ObamaCare and Medicare) and privatize Social Security, etc... I could go on. The wreckage could last decades, if not generations. Expect this to unfold slowly as we learn that we actually *do* need a leader with some finite attention span and intelligence.
OT: Does anyone know if @DoctorPhil is actually @Che's alter-ego? I see some similarities in the writing patterns.
We should be hopeful going forward that this sets precedents for others looking to progress American politicos through good service and not special interests. Thank God for strong men like this!
May god save America!

I don't have a bad taste in my mouth about him like you do because I've never done business with him, and never have had him tell me I was to be looked down on just because of the path I have chosen in life. The other candidate consistently made me feel inadequate because I wasnt paying higher taxes, pandering to women, or catering to illegals migrating to this country. Because I opposed her campaign made me feel like I was a racist and a bigot, when in fact anyone of those insults could just as easily been made to 99% of the population including the ones who weren't categorized as "deplorables".
Most of the country is not in high populous areas, and the electoral college made sure the abuse of high corrupt political machines don't maintain power for only specific areas of the US. "We" the United States of America involve hard working people in Indiana, Minnesota, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and throughout the middle of America. We don't want to live the ways of high population areas. The old saying goes if you pack too many people together, that start acting like pigs in a pen. If there are too many pigs packed in a pen they start turning on each other and will kill one until they have enough space. This election was about giving good hard working citizens their space, otherwise we will start killing each other at a faster pace evident to the liberal mantra the past 8 years.
Trump is not someone who wants to "serve". He just thinks he should be made king. His patience for complex problems is just about zero.
JimG, your foolishness continues to shock me. This country has always been run on myths and outright lies. That we have made moves to end racism and sexism, and get towards universal healthcare, are fantastic. We should not be moving backwards. Getting to the point where everyone can have living wage careers is still way out there. You still seem to think you can insult poor people and not be exposing your own stupidity.
how to oust Trump in 4 years?

This is looking like more, of the same old, same old.
America has never seen a candidate like this become president. It would be like Kim Kardashian running for president and winning. The closest thing I've seen to this is Arnold Schwartzeenger and Jesse Ventura winning goevernor in their respective states, but they were just governor in their states, not the president of the United States.
So Americans are in shock, and they are asking how the hell did we let this happen. The problem was 47% of eligible voters didn't vote. The other problem was that the opposing candidate was Hillary Clinton who has her own documented problems, and has been in the politics spotlight for a long time, and America is just tired of seeing her. And also no one has mentioned this, but there were definitely people that didn't vote for her because they didn't want to see a female president in office.
America deserved better final candidates than Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. When someone says I'm just gonna pick the candidate that is less evil, you know something is wrong.
The rioting and protesting is obviously wrong, in the end I say he's gonna be our president, so get used to it. All this protesting ain't gonna change shit. If you wanted a different result you should have voted, or there should have been better candidates.
I think rather than she meant the much smaller number of right wing wall street types, Republicans, who supported Trump. There are the people who have their offices right next to Dougster, even though he claims that he is not really just like them. Don't believe him.

All the while you have constantly been rooting for the market to collapse. The democrats care nothing about stock ownership compared to conservatives so maybe that's why you are so angry?
Fucking fat fingers!
hey dumbass wrong again. there were only 2 billionaires in the US who did not support clinton. they were trump and thiel and nobody knows for sure if trump is a billionaire or not.
I say that as soon as the last bubble bursts we can get down to the much harder work of building a sustainable and just economy.

We could ask those most qualified, the 8 sitting justices of the Supreme Court, to write the amendment.
Sometimes it is strange crises which force progress. Bring the United States forward out of the 19th Century.
Otherwise with this claim of weekly contact with Russians and the FBI announcements, it's "What did Trump know and when did he know it?" As it will be necessary to impeach him and require the same congressional 2/3rds.
Obama missed his FDR moment when he failed to nationalize or even re-regulate the banks. Well now on his way out he can have an even greater moment by finally fixing our system so that every vote counts, and averting a disaster of epic proportions.
Governing the most powerful nation in the world is nothing like a sporting match, as the stakes are so much higher. We all need therefore to think very hard about what is needed, and then do it.

But what is surprising is that Trump got almost as may votes as Clinton, with his extreme message and extreme persona.
And also there is a huge rural versus urban split, and this does also have to do with income and race.
Amend the Constitution Right Now!

Well they have their theory. But it is also true that most of the negative sentiment about Clinton is just people being influenced by Right Wing Media, and accepting the non-sense they put out. And most of that is just playing to stereotypes about ambitious women.
