I do feel for these people who put so much emotional investment in a single horrible election. (Honestly was pretty gloomy myself about losing the next 8 to 12 years to neoliberals. As if we haven't given them free reign long enough already.)Domino wrote:HATES Repubs to the core, completely bitter about life, barely making ends meet.

Just hearing stress of most of my friends, some who want to commit suicide due to Trump winning, it is just not good for anyone's health.
Bill Burr's comment about laughing at crying white Hillary supporters (if we're going to have a White People Mourning Mitt Romney.com, that's only fair right?) but not at the crying minorities kind of hit home.
Even if you don't think they have it harder than us in any way, they were still used as props in the ugliest sort of identity politics.
It's just as bad when Hillary Clinton and Melinda Gates paraded a bunch of women from third world countries around like they were animals in a zoo, that their struggles being rich and powerful had anything to do with the struggles of a lady working for $7.25 an hour at Wal-Mart.
I think we all by definition are on the computer too much. And that that's a good thing. Have you seen how boring all the other entertainment options out there are? >_>I think you might be on the computer too much.
About the same number of Democrats aching to vote for Donald Trump. 4 to 7% of them. That's not inclusive of the ones who would have just stayed at home because they were okay with either outcome.How exactly is someone supposed to parse these statements? How many GOP'ers did you think were just aching to vote for Sanders
This does not take into account increased millennial turnout or more favorable numbers from Muslims or increased democratic turnout. Any one of these would have changed the outcome of the presidential election. The increased share of the millionaire vote Trump would have gotten in that matchup would not have mattered, since California and New York were locked down to begin with. (Winning Orange County for the first time in a century sure as hell didn't help her at all.)
Thanks.
It's your subjective opinion that Hillary was better than Trump.but when you insist "all we had to do was nominate somebody objectively better than Trump", all I can say is "we DID that, and STILL lost". And all I keep hearing back is "E-mails! Speeches! World War 3!"
The objective public opinion (ie, this is objectively what people think) is that the difference between puppets of billionaires, and just having billionaires run everything directly on their own, wasn't that much. Just a very cold, discrete, objective 2%.
Ok thank you for blaming the Clintons and thank you for voting for Bernie or his Union Equivalent in the primary in 2020.is to keep on top of the entire flaming mess and ensure folks know how it happened and place the blame where it belongs
If there's anything left after they run unchecked for the next two to four years, we'll plant a forest in the desert. Together we'll make america great again, brother.
