[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yesterday was a rough day for the Democrats?

It would be more accurate to say that [b]every single day since November 9th[/b] have been bad days for the Democrats.

And the proof of this is the hysteria we see in the posts by liberals on this forum and in the media who just cannot get over the fact that someone who they thought was a buffoon ended up creaming Hillary!

They are leaderless and adrift as to what they should do other than indulge in futile exercises like the recount effort that they tried to get done using Stein as a surrogate. The recount collapsed and so they have moved to hoping that enough electors will desert Trump ..... of course all we have is one Republican elector who seems to have joined the effort although they publicize it as being ten or more, except that all the other electors are Democrats who were not expected to vote for Trump in any event.[/quote]

Ok.  And this makes you happy because why?  Sociopath?  Yay, other Americans are sad!  [/quote]

It does not make me happy. It actually mystifies me and I am someone who has voted for Democratic presidential candidates for decades though I did not vote for either Hillary or Trump this go around.

FWIW, the very same thing happened when Reagan was running and Democrats were apoplectic that his victory would be a disaster - quite honesty, I was concerned as well. Reagan was feared as a war monger and a nuclear confrontation with the Soviets was viewed as likely. Democrats also used to deride Reagan as being dumb and an idiot just like they do to Trump today. [b]Guess what ..... we survived fine[/b].

So although I have reservations about some of Trump's policies, I have enough faith in the US to believe that we will come through fine.[/quote]

Some people survived, some did quite well and some - particularly the working class - went on a downward spiral from which there's been no recovery.

Republicans who want a repeat of the Reagan glory years forget that it came at the cost of a stable middle class and started the oxidation of the Rust Belt.  Or maybe they remember it well.[/quote]
