Isn't the media looking lovely right now? Won't confidence in the news be ever so high? The public's confidence in things like GamerGate will be so justified.

#59087

As I said earlier, I voted Hillary but was partly hoping Trump would win (because the Leftists deserve it).

I regret partly hoping that Trump would win.

#59088

Utah results so far trump 54% , Mcmullin 21%,Clinton 21% 5 votes behind independent cand. Mcmullin

#59089

So what's the key point now - he has flipped Ohio. Is there anything in WA Ore CA that matter? Does Ariz count as a player? Wis?

#59090

I'm laughing my ass off at the people on here who poo-poohed Trumps chances.

I also like the ones who think he will somehow empower the SJW's by somehow "oppressing" them (by not giving them most, or all of everything they want, like Hillary would).

And no, I'm not worried about Trump running a dictatorship (the corrupt apparatchucks won't let him).

A good night.

I must say the next 4 years under God Emperor Trump might be VERY interesting.

Lots of states that they haven't called, don't know why they haven't called Florida.

I know - that's been obvious ever since Browerd went to 95%.

#59092

Florida was called for Trump

I cast a ballot for the Giant Douche.

I can just as easily imagine myself sitting around cursing myself were the Turd Sandwich winning and I'd voted for her instead.

Participating in this election in any capacity is nothing but regret. As would be sitting out. Everything sucks.

#59094

People are now calling Florida for Trump.

Everyone on NBC outside of Chuck Todd are starting the blame/excuse game.

#59095

Well at least you won't go on the rampage, Clarence. So there's that.

Left coast was never in play. WI is likely to go Trump. Clinton needs AZ to have a path.

#59098

Trump will give the SJWs exactly what they want, which is a bunch of stupid empty words they can bitch about for four years. He'll definitely be an all you can eat buffet for outrage.

You know I never threatened violence.
I said there would be SOME political violence from the left or right if Clinton won.

There's still a chance there will be some with Trump in charge. Just a lesser chance IN MY opinion.

Anyway, I'm happy.

#59100

Newsweek has delivered commemorative issues with Hillary on the cover and titled "madam president"

I think those might end up along side the Patriot undeafeated Super Bowl 42 t-shirts... those poor folks in Africa....

#59101

Interesting - CNN **hasn't** called OR and WA.

Relatedly, my daughter just asked me whether abortion will still be legal if and when she needs it to be. Before I could answer, my wife said: "no, but only because it isn't legal in New Zealand." Then she went back to surfing the University of Otago website. My daughter said that maybe when we get there, we can "buy mom a sheep ... that'll cheer her up."

Might be Elizabeth Warren in 2020. But she'll need to beat Kanye West for the nomination.

Indeed, he was bashed for putting Trump at above the 30% mark, while other mainstream news thought he had a matchstick fire's in a blizzard chance only.

I also already see how Bernie Or Bust camp and third party people are being attacked. I disagree: if the party elects the second most unpopular candidate with help of shenanigans, people don't have to vote for her. It is also false to demand that people have to uphold what they perceive to be a corrupt and rigged system.

#59105

N. Carolina for Trump

#59106

Looks like now that they are not calling for Trump until there's no other alternative.

#59107

That was my impression too. Not sure why GA hasn't been called.

:think: :think:

I am already seeing people claim that the vote was rigged in North Carolina.

#59109

Hell, they called NJ before any of the vote reported.

There are still countries that are not reporting. Really populated countries, like mine, that surround Atlanta.

#59111

Popular vote has Trump up by 3 mil. Over Clinton.

That could be a game changer. That's the danger of this calling states before the totals are in.

FA had a hatchet job post up the other day about Jill Stein. I'm betting less than 3 people who regularly read FA were even considering voting for her, but plenty of commenters were calling out the piece for being shoddy.

This is what happens when you put everyone who mildly diverges from your point of view in Camp Shitlord. Lots more people might have held their nose and voted Hillary if they weren't told for months on end that even being critical or less than 100% committed to her was as good as voting for Trump. Enough of them evidently thought "Shit, might as well vote for Trump then if it's no worse."

#59114

Expect to see a lot of this if Trump wins. It's all the fault of racist.

#59115

Spike13 wrote:Hell, they called NJ before any of the vote reported.

Yeah, that was a bit of surprise. CA and HI one second after the polls close is expected, but not NJ.

#59116

There also seems to be so many different projections fox, CNN, google, nut all different

#59117

Eddie Munster...er.. I mean Paul Ryan won re election

Holy shit! Tom Brokaw got fucking old fast!

He looks like he's ninety...

#59121

This is from Cracked but I promise it isn't complete shit. It's also from April.

#59122

Oh shit Cobb county looks like it's going to Clinton. That's kinda amazing.

#59123

Mcmullin with 21% of the vote (he's from there) may have cost Hillary Utah.

#59124

Aussies shares have taken a tumble. Down around 3.5% at one time.

Interesting to see what actually happened. Was it that the Hidden Trump supporters actually existed? Or Hillary supporters didn't bother to come out to vote. Nat is giving Trump 58% chance of presidency at the moment.

#59125

George Stefanopolous looks like he wants to jump off a bridge.

Cobb is leaning Clinton now. I'm shocked, that was Newt Gingrich's home district.

Brokaw is trying to do the calm sane we have a job to do thing. Everyone else seem to be having a panic attack except for Chuck Todd. Todd looks like he wants to smack people and tell them he told them so.

At least Brianna Wu will have nothing to show for her efforts and be that bit further away from real power and influence.

That's funny. My wife is terrible upset, even though I told her a couple of days ago I thought this was a likely scenario. She's talking Iceland though, my ancestral home and she was there for years when her dad was stationed there. A bit extreme, imho.

I admit I gave Trump a zero percent chance of winning. Having proven my prediction ability to be shit, I'll nonetheless make the prediction that he will be the worst president we've ever had. I can't imagine it could be otherwise. I also think we'll see levels of regret that will make the Brexit regret pale in comparison. HL Menken, you are always right!

Clinton camp is radio silent.

Trump headquarters are partying

Only one country surrounds Atlanta. It's called The United States.

If you guys elect Trump you are officially the trolls of the world.

You are a better spelling than me. Everyone else on the other hand are better at understanding and being a little bit forgiving.

Enjoy your superiority.

The University of Otago has a good psych dept and Dunnedin looks beautiful. But, I agree ... a bit extreme. Of course, if she could get us both jobs at the University of British Columbia, I'd start packing tomorrow.

So it looks like Orange is the new Black. :D

#59143

fivethirtyeight gives trump 78% chance of winning now. Amazing!
I am working with some Americans who believe Trump is the antichrist. Part of me want him to win to see their reaction.
