This election was not about race. Trump got substantial black and Hispanic votes. It was about restoring the rule of law and preventing illegals from flooding into our country. Too bad you butt hurt liberals can't see that.

That flag still burns your ass doesn't it? LOL

Why do you think I use it here and no other board?

Time to quit crying about your girl Hillary's loss and get about the business of making America great again.

For the first time in years I feel like my vote actually mattered!

Remember eight years ago President Obama reminded us voters, elections have consequences. Shockingly those who just lost can't believe they are now the ones facing those consequences.

Progressives had their shot at it and now its over. Time to get behind the president and make America great again.

I'm so happy! Drain the swamp!

Pops,
While my Wife didn't cry she was upset. German immigrant herself, her parents lived WWII.

I know it's not much solace, and I do agree there is a racial element. I don't think it's the prevailing element for most folks. Some? Sure.

Think of it this way, would you have liked Cruz better?

What I really didn't like, although I guess I should have expected it, was the polarization, the abject hatred for those true believers on either side. We humans have a mean streak and it was in clear display during this election. It was exposed.

The good side is that it is a minority of about 20% who are so deeply invested in either pole. The vast majority of us are much more mainstream, more easy going.

The danger going forward is that the vitriol continues to boil and effect larger segments of the population .

All that said, it's easy for me. I got my dual USA/Canadian citizenship years ago and i have a place to go should I need to. It's much more difficult for my kids. I suspect that were a couple of them to get together today harsh words would be exchanged. I don't like that. I've been working on healing family wounds and this doesn't make it easier. My personal civil war.

[Pops]

Actually Newf it isn't the right / left that worries me. So yeah, as repulsive as Cruz is I think he at least has a grasp of and some respect for the constitution and trump demonstrably does not.

What part of the Second Amendment did Hillary respect? She wanted to overturn the Heller decision which established that the Second Amendment was an individual right to bear arms. Is the 2nd Amendment not part of the Constitution?

[evilgenius]

Actually, I voted for Hillary and I don't feel too bad. I expected this. I know people who voted for Trump. I listened to what they had to say. I know that Donald Trump represents some very ignored people. Because of the two party system they had to find a candidate in the same person that a lot of reprehensible people also supported, but that didn't mean they supported him for the same reasons.

I'm worried that the stock market has not reacted negatively to Trump's victory the next day. The futures were down last night, but that cleared up by the time I got up. It makes me think that they don't really understand the systemic changes that are about to take place. Trump will have to address the big corporate hold over the flow of money. It would have been better for investors if they had humbled themselves in appreciation of this ahead of time rather than wait to see if they could get away with continuing to not care about what the companies they own are doing. It makes you wonder if they have an ace up their sleeve?

The market bounced back after Trump's acceptance speech. Everybody realized that we have BAU.

Merck and Pfizer, no longer under the threat of Hillary sticking a boot on their neck, are on an upward tear. Fortunately, I'm heavily weighted in that sector. This is going to be a great day if you have stocks.

Yup. The panicers that act like Trump will single-handedly decimate the US economy seem to forget that everyone else on Capitol Hill will be against that.

Of course, congress loves to spend money. So we might continue to get more debt (which I'm against). But the dems seemed to think lots more debt (to the tune of about $9 trillion) being added to the national debt under Obama was just fine. Funny how that perception shifts if their person isn't at the helm. (And before hard lefties try it the "It was all Dubya's fault" ship sailed many years ago. At SOME point, you must take some responsibility for Obama's policies and big deficit spending).

So, even if Trump wrangles a "you can spend if I can cut taxes" deal, it's BAU overall.

So really -- doomers love to forecast doom, but the panic seems way overdone to me. The stock market managed to figure that out overnight -- the wisdom of crowds works again.

You mean the rape case where the plaintiff withdrew her civil suit on November 4th? I swear you left wingers don't keep up with the news. But thanks for playing the victim game.

The woman who alleged that Donald Trump sexually assaulted her at billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein's notorious 'sex parties' in 1994 when she was a 13-year-old has dropped the civil lawsuit that was filed against him.

Cog,
If you are interested look at the related Snopes article where they dismissed this and other cases as false. An interesting tid bit about Bill appears toward the end.

Snopes is 100% controlled, biased bullshit. It's literally an old couple with 50 cats, making up stories in their basement.
