Or we just hung up on pollsters? Ain't got time for that.

Every single step forward on racial progress in American history has been followed by a backlash. This is it. It's not about economics. Trump voters have an average income of around 70k. They are not poor and desperate.

It's embarrassing, isn't it.

Are there really this many morons in the US?

+1

Can't believe that this is happening.

Can we talk for a moment about Obama...I mean if he did so great then how do we get a racist afterwards?

I guess we'll see worse, and it won't be Hillary's fault.

+1. Much worse!

Hillary is worse.

At least Germans had the excuse of one of the worst inflationary crises in modern history when they elected Hitler. All we have is affluenza, though financial markets are already in free fall.
God help us.

No. Just no. Reagan had many years of government service and actually appointed fairly moderate justices. I voted for him. GWB was worse, but he is not a complete buffoon. International markets are already tanking.

Not talking about their performance as President but rather the level of surprise their success generated among the other party. Each one of these victories was a shock to the Dems, as in, how could this happen?? And yet with each successive victory, the candidates became incrementally if not substantially less qualified. So, the lesson is, never underestimate the whims of the electorate.

Notice that Trump was right after all: the system is rigged.

I think the path post-Trump is murky for Dems...a generation that can't win now because it will split into factions and not figure out how to get back to the White house. Third parties may proliferate for House races and create a more varied legislative branch but I don't see that helping get Trump and Pence out for 3 or 4 cycles......

Blame it on the minorities!

Not blaming, just saying we really needed them.

Respectfully? Mostly not.

I think you have us mixed up with liberals. We really do want a united America. Get over it and lets move on.

Sure: "Lock Her Up" and "Trump That Bitch" are extremely respectful.
