Honestly man fuck you.
The DNC fucking played themselves. And all that schadenfreude the Democrats were enjoying came to (predictably) bite them in the ass.
I don't have words, and if I did, sorry would not be among them. America has shamed itself on the international stage. Trump supporters are rape apologists, racists, and scum. I will not apologize.

Playing devil's advocate here, but how do you know that Jaacob is a Trump Supporter? He could be just as upset as the rest of us that Trump won the election, but instead of getting angry about it, he's just being polite? Taking the high road and all that.
I'm just basing this off of his other posts, which isn't a lot.
Judging by the correspondences, it was less that and more the desire to maintain the Democratic establishment. What they actually believed was their ticket to victory was the production of a reactionary, hyper-right Republican nominee, which simply makes all of it even more tone deaf and farcical. Compound this with a gutted VRA and millions of disenfranchised felons (most of whom were caught up in the Clintons' drug and crime policy), and it's all rather rife with irony.Yeah they were so sure Hillary was their ticket to win... but it wasn't. I wonder how they feel about not electing Bernie now who was SURE to win. (At least that's what the polls indicated at the time, I can't say for how well he would have done against him in the actual election)
Aaah, okay.I don't have words, and if I did, sorry would not be among them. America has shamed itself on the international stage. Trump supporters are rape apologists, racists, and scum. I will not apologize.

I don't think he was directing the post at anyone here, just saying in general.

And now all of my alcohol is gone.
Tru, but who wants a majority with Trump as the executive and the psychos who are his tentative cabinet.Didn't they already have control of the house and senate?
The DNC fucking played themselves. And all that schadenfreude the Democrats were enjoying came to (predictably) bite them in the ass. It's really beyond comprehension how purposely encouraging the ultra-right to rally around a synergistic figurehead (as if all this vileness hadn't been fomenting for 8+ years and beyond) was considered a viable and good strategy.
Like we didn't all know proto-fascism and white supremacy are the sleeping giants within America's constituency. I mean, give me a break. The same thing is happening all over the West. This is stupid and all, but not surprising.
The Democratic Part overshot itself, big time. I honestly don't think Bernie would have won either (he wouldn't have survived the 'socialist' angle, and a lot of Americas don't give a shit about democratic socialism either).
I just remember a lot of early polls showing that he'd beat Trump by a lot, but again those were quite a while ago. It's hard to say how it would have played out but I do feel he'd have had a better chance than Hillary
Good morning Mog, glad to see you're still with us. I had to avoid puking during my night shift and got to watch the whole sad shit play out live. It went from watching history to watching a hysterectomy - not just a verbal pun. We've literally taken away America's ability to create anything meaningful for at least 4 years.
So what's the deal? Where did Hillary fail?
