Well has the election blown you away yet?!

[_Some Schmo]

Yeah, just keep underestimating the repercussions, Jersey Girl. That'll work.

And your attitude accomplishes what, exactly?

Staying in touch with reality.

[_Jersey Girl]

I'll respect the office when the office is occupied by someone respectable.


Once a Drumpf, always a Drumpf. The next President is a mindless **** orangutan. **** him and **** everyone who voted for him.

I was shocked by the election results (very shocked to be honest). I am also shocked by many of the posts that I have been reading here at the MDB.

"“F” him and “F” everyone who voted for him."

Really?

“F” all 55 million plus American citizens?

That's a lot of damned!

Peace,
Ceeboo

I didn't strongly support either candidate, but I really thought that Clinton would win the election. I knew that no matter what the outcome, I wouldn't be completely satisfied because I wasn't satisfied going in.

But this is what gets me about some of the comments I'm reading. If folks were such staunch Clinton supporters and if they were willing to enthusiastically accept her leadership, then why in the hell aren't they willing to follow her lead today?

Trump and Clinton were friends and associates prior and they'll be friends and associates again, while many of the rest of us are content with our bitching and back biting, they're going to move forward.

Oh and Ceeboo, “F” yourself honey.

So, Obama isn't freaked out.
Clinton isn't freaked out.

They're both willing to get behind Trump and support his efforts.

If hatred for your fellow American's is your reality, I feel sorry for you. It's unproductive and it doesn't move the needle either way.

Let me know when you figure out that I'm right.

I was never a staunch Hillary supporter, and I resent the DNC for having her nomination forced upon us. My vote was NOT pro-Hillary, it was an emphatic NO to the Fascist.

Yup, I totally get how that works.

Uh, you sure about that?

Yeah... what you're hearing there are the death throes of traditional American democracy.

It's only anger and resentment right now. It hasn't fermented into full-blown hate yet.

Let me know when you figure out that I'm right.

Right about what?

by the way, the election of Drumpf belies your statement here. He will be our president completely fueled by hate.

You know, Schmo and Jersey, I love you both. Jersey is making good points and yeah, I'm pissed as hell that Trump's lies were believed by half of America. But it is what it is, and people are people. We have two years to prepare. The American people will see what they did soon enough. Clinton and Obama have grace, more than I can say for Trump and his sycophants. (His team and surrogates). His boy on CNN last night, (Lewindicksky) was arrogant and ugly when Podesta said that Hillary was going to wait a while on the results. He couldn't even graciously win. Then she called Trump and made him look MORE like an idiot.

Do I want to be watching the Trump show for the next four years, no, I haven't got that many left, but IT IS WHAT IT IS. I had a nice long chat today with Jeremy Runnells and he made me feel great. I said I was depressed as hell and he said, "But you can't control it or do anything about it so it's not serving you to feel that way." He's right.

We are strong. We are Americans. We take the good with the bad and only get stronger. Decency WILL prevail. We WILL have a woman President.

Nice post. I wish I could feel this optimistic so soon.

As I said elsewhere, Trump is going to be a target of the media he slammed for a year and a half. They will be digging up and broadcasting so much crap that I think he's going to regret ever running. Trump played "You Can't Always Get What You Want" at this rallies. Sometimes you get what you want, and then wish you hadn't.
