She'll be back alright, but if better options turn out she may face similar defeat again.

Better than Trump?!?
heh

No better way to regress the country immensely than to have conservatives control everything. NOt sure if some of the fears like overturning Roe vs. Wae are true though, esp when xi0 says it's impossible.

I don't think I ever said it was "impossible". I just think it's one of those election-year things that flare-up.

Trump and liberal?

I'm lost.

He was a democrat... He essentially reversed all of his past positions while running now. That's why he's a bullshit artist in the first place.

Think she will be back in 4 years time - or is the shame of losing to Trump too much to ever show her face again?!?

I guess it depends on how a Trump presidency would go.....but I think that'd be sort of unbelievable to me for some reason.

 

[Styx]

Trump used to be Democratic, but if you take his word for it, he felt betrayed by it and wanted to turn around the Republican party. That's what I remember him saying in 2014, at least.

edit
lol grammar. I'm tired.

Better than Trump?!?
heh

With some issues cleared, I'm rooting for Gary Johnson next time. Getting the votes that he did today was incredible and means he and other third party candidates have a viable chance at elections. I suspect that our candidates will be a lot better next year...or so I terribly hope.

Hillary think she is born to be president. And she has huge influence over democratic party.

Anyway Trump has won. Its time for US people to unite and MAGA

 

[Styx]

I'd imagine her influence over the Democratic party has dwindled quite a bit. They're probably already thinking of someone else to push next election.

Maine taken by Hillary.
But Trump's gotten one seat. ME is contested

 

[Styx]

Hillary Clinton cannot even be arsed to talk? She puts that freak Podesta at the head of her concession? Wow.

Wonder how CNN will handle Trump's speech

 

[GrySun]

Has Trump won yet? Ez

 

[Styx]

Republicans won the US Senate

This kind of victory hasn't happened since 1928. Crazy indeed.

 

[Spirit]

Just about :/
But until I see that 270 all bets are off

He's got 278?

 

[Philia]

I thought Killary might lose New Hampshire, Nevada or even Colorado. Never thought she was gonna lose in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. And these three accounts for 46 EC.

Arizona not official, I think?

 

[GrySun]

I want to see Canada taking in all the people and celebrities that want to immigrate there now

 

[Spirit]

This is what i'm following right now.

218

266

You know what would be crazy? Somehow, in the morning, she's won. That would be crazy and extremely weird. lol

Oh, I thought Arizona was announced already. Okay then.

--- Double Post Merged, Nov 9, 2016 ---

Fox News says: Trump said he's prepared to be president for all voters, that he will not follow the typical path of a candidate and consider everyone.

 

[GrySun]

Arizona might as well be. It's very unlikely for Trump to lose his lead by the time the remaining ~10% votes are in.

I'd rather have her in jail thanks to her emails, some Trey Gowdy rekting still awaits her...

 

[James Rye]

Boy, this doesn't look too good if he's right and given the numbers so far he pretty much is right.

Spoiler

I feel like this will deepen the drift between the "two Americas" instead of unifying it.
