Just remember that you Trumpians own everything. If this Great Experiment of Trump fails, it's on YOU....

I question the math on that one. So theoretically then, the other 99% didn't vote?


Actually, combined roughly only 50% of eligible voters voted. This means 50% did not vote. There's the math. And Hillary won the popular vote, by the way. It's like 2000, save for Trump winning more electoral votes. The Trumpians wanted him, they got him, and now we can all see how "great" he's going to make America again. Their party has all the branches of government, so they own it. Pretty cut and dry to me, DR....

Well, when you talk about "Trumpians", you mean the richest 1% of all American voters. Even if ALL of the 1%ers voted for Trump, that still leaves 49% that could have gone either way. Logic tells me that of the remaining 49% (assuming all 1%ers voted, and voted for Trump), a pretty good percentage of non-1%ers must have voted for Trump, but certainly whatever the percentage split on that 49%, the votes FOR Trump had to far outweigh 1%. So to place the blame where it's due, it's NOT all on your so-called Trumpians. They just don't have the numbers, regardless of a 50% voter turnout. As Abraham Lincoln said, "You can fool all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time..."  Early on, I recognized the bleak situation of this election, and knew there couldn't possibly be any happy outcome. I guess we can now await the government rounding up all those associated with the Occupy movement on "Trumped-up" charges.

Don't even get me started about the electoral college... it's a joke, and has nothing to do with math. Democracy, my @$$!  But still, even the electoral college has to have a close vote to apply leverage to the deciding win, in order to maintain at least an "appearance of Democracy", otherwise there'd be rioting in the streets and armed revolution (assuming we can peel people away from their television sets).

I have been shaking my head, rolling my eyes, face palming myself and just laughing out loud about all the pretty ridiculous things some people are saying. People swearing they are going to kill themselves, move to Canada (which by the way, why Canada and not, say, Mexico? pftt,  bunch of racists,lol), some universities across the country cancelling classes or tests because the wimpy kids are too devastated to study right now, blaming everything but themselves, etc, etc, etc, the silly list goes on  :idiot2: ::)
I mean, seriously? They need to get it together. Accept they lost, accept that Donald J. Trump is the new president of the United States and move on..............Anyway, I just needed to get this out. Moving on  :)

I was over it months ago, when I saw what the choices were going to come down to, and accepted the inevitability that our next president was going to suck. On the plus side, now that he has presidential advisors, maybe one of them will tactfully point out how ridiculous that hairpiece looks.

;D  But if he hasn't changed his hairstyle in years, why would he start now? My wish would be for him to be a bit more tactful when speaking. I applaud that he is not politically correct, but do tone it down a little bit.
But maybe he will be a different Donald than the one we all saw during his campaign.

Baby steps, baby steps.  If he's going to have to learn a little diplomacy, there's no better starting point than for him to accept some constructive criticism from those around him. Never mind how that stupid toupe makes HIM look, think about how it makes America look!  He can work on honing his insincerity act later...

I think it's his real hair? I remember watching an interview not so long ago (probably last year) where he actually moved his hair to the other side so that we could see it is real, but anyway  :D ...

I really do not believe Trump is a racist (and I am Mexican, by the way). Besides Clinton also has a HUGE list of awful things she has done. But what's done is done. Dems need to stop crying about it and need to stop rioting and burning flags and all those tantrums and man up already.
This one has, and as an Black man, his harping about the Birther issue concerning President Obama was very offensive to me. Hillary did win the popular vote. That's a fact. Electoral College has to go...


funny how dems are fine with electoral college when its in their favor, but when its not they cry.  Also Obama is Kenyan, wasn't cuz of race.

It's a bad comb-over? Well then I guess he should GET a toupe. A good one. He can afford it. Either that or hair transplants. Suck up his pride and do it for America. But you see what the problem is when you're that rich -- everyone around you is too afraid to tell you how ridiculous you really look.

As far as I'm concerned, the Electoral College should go no matter who wins. The only thing that should matter is who has the most votes. Period. "Mob rule" indeed... :tickedoff:

Everyone is afraid to tell him? His hair is all everyone talks about. He most definitely knows what people think of it. He just doesn't care. :P

Oh please! We are talking about hair here. Who cares about hair. He's got better things to care about.

Like Muslim registries. And border walls. And privatizing Medicare. And cutting taxes further on the nation's wealthiest. And slashing environmental protections for this country. And settling Trump U lawsuits for $25 million. And...

So, you think that the founders where wrong when they created the electoral college?  Great to know!
Since we're into knowing things, I think the Founding Fathers knew that whatever they created would be questioned later on down the line. That's why they allowed these things called amendments to the Constitution for future generations in case they wanted to add something, or even to change something they didn't like, or thought were no longer needed...
