@IRunForFun: is it even a surprise at this point.....
my heartburn is extra bad right now too!!
-
I've just woken up after a restless night and I am in FULL ON PANIC MODE. What happened?!?!?!
-
@lamariniere: uh trump is pretty much winning......
-
@lamariniere: I have no idea. I'm still trying to wrap my head around it
-
@snowjewelz: @aprild: I'm in absolute disbelief at what I'm seeing.
-
@lamariniere: people at HRC HQ are legit crying
-
@snowjewelz: I have come extremely close to legit crying. I cannot believe this. How do we explain this to our children?
-
@Foodnerd81: I'm just glad mine is too young to know what's going on for now!
-
@Foodnerd81: @snowjewelz: I literally never could have imagined I'd be bringing a child into a world where Trump was our president.
-
I literally don't know what to do with myself right now.
-
I cannot believe this. How can T be our next president?!?!
-
@IRunForFun: I think that is the perfect line to end this thread on. I'm going to bed before it actually happens. One last night...
-
I'm disgusted at America.
-
I just read that according to exit poll data, the gender gap is the widest it's been in decades - women supported Clinton by a 12% margin but men supported Trump by a 12% margin. Beyond trade, immigration, etc, I feel like maybe America (especially men in America) just wasn't ready for a woman president
I grew up in the rural south and was constantly taught that God intends women to submit, that they aren't supposed to hold leadership roles, etc, so sadly it doesn't surprise me. I just hope that nothing really, really awful happens during the next 4 years, I can't help thinking about Europe in the 1930s...
-
I'm freaking the fuck out!
-
@periwinklebee: I saw non college educated women still voted Trump 62%.
-
@periwinklebee: agreed. I think if all else were held constant, but HRC was a man she would have won much more easily. Still holding out hope she can pull it out!
-
@periwinklebee: I think people are ready for a female president but that Hilary Clinton isnt the right female at this time. She's unfortunately had such a hard time with trust and likeability.
-
@agold: I agree. People just hate her too much. Not only because she's a woman (but of course that is part of it).
-
@agold: I also agree with this. It feels like she's just been held to a different standard than any other candidate this election.
-
@Foodnerd81: Yes, definitely true that tons of women voted for him, but still a pretty dramatic gender split overall, if exit polls are accurate.
@agold: I'd like to be wrong and think it was just about her and not more general cultural values, the former doesn't really square with my experience, but who knows....
Anybody remember the Simpsons episode from the early 1990s where Lisa Simpson becomes president after President Trump bankrupts America? Hoping there's a Lisa Simpson waiting in the ranks for 2020.
-
@periwinklebee:
I am so upset by the election thank you for this!
-
@Pumpkin Pie: it's almost like I can't accept losing but not him being president. Will the White House be gilded and given a Trump stamp?
-
I'm currently on USA jobs looking at positions overseas! We lived abroad a kid, and I always wanted M to experience that as well. Well, maybe a bit sooner than I thought...
-
My poor children. This is horrific.
-
I feel like this has to be a massive joke.
-
You guys, this is nuts! How is this really happening?
-
I am now eating through a box of cookies and drinking straight from a bottle of wine. This is absolutely horrifying.
-
It's 11:30 out here in AZ and I think I just gave up hope. I have to get up for work in 7 hours and baby is going to wake up twice in that time I'm sure, so...... ugh.
-
@dc yoga bee: I already live abroad and I'm scared out of my mind. This election does not just affect the United States but the entire world.
-
The markets are a mess right now. Great Recession part 2.
-
@lamariniere: I have not been more embarrassed to be American than I am this morning. The Mexican currency reportedly plummeted, the Swedish currency is expected to go down (since it does whenever there's uncertainty). I am speechless. I'm afraid this will be the start of the de-unification of the USA. It makes sense: individual states have little in common, similar to the different EU countries. I'm preparing for scary times ahead
-
I'm literally sitting here crying.
-
Oh my god.
-
I can't believe it. Someone wake me from this awful nightmare!
-
Holy crap. Did that just happen? How is this possible?
-
I can't sleep. This is a living nightmare.
-
Drowning my feelings in cookies because I am pregnant and cannot drink.
-
I think I'm going to allow unlimited screen time tomorrow. Can't sleep and the kids will be awake in like 3 hours. Also, I need to wallow
-
What an awesome night!!!!
my heartburn is extra bad right now too!!
