    @Anagram: This is the most depressing thing I've read in this thread yet. "THAT'S America now--mothers are teaching their children that it was better for 6 million jews to die than for the US to have accepted any of them as refugees."

    @lamariniere: someone at work just told me that too. So let's say she did not inspire enough people in the states that mattered to come out and vote. I mean the woman lost Florida, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania! After Ohio was called for Trump and Florida was 100,000 votes in his favor I went to bed.

    @Mrs. Lemon-Lime: I'd agree with that. I live in Central PA. I can safely say I saw 1 Clinton sign for every 20 Trump signs. I think that the Clinton campaign just didn't have a strong presence here and that really surprises me given what a battleground state it always has been.

    I read in the exit poll data (http://www.cnn.com/election/results/exit-polls/national/president) that of people who responded that they want the next president to be more liberal than Obama, 23% voted for Trump. This contrasts to people who responded they want to continue Obama's policies, only 5% of those respondents voted for Trump. I guess this would be consistent with Clinton losing a lot of the Bernie vote?

    I feel like I'm in disbelief. If you voted for Trump, at the very least you sympathize with the KKK, misogyny, xenophobia, racism, sexism and so much more. Because Trump was not secretive about how he felt. That was one of the things people liked about him, that he was "honest." Never mind that his honesty meant he was comfortable openly being a piece of shit human. I've seen people trying to make excuses for voting for him. Nope. You knew all of these terrible things and you still made your decision, blinders off, full disclosure. It's sickening.

    Everyone has their own opinion. I've heard many people talk as negatively about Clinton. Let's just pray the president leads us in a moral way.

    @tequiero21: Do you think a guy that sexually assaults women and revels in not paying taxes will do anything in a "moral way"?

    @ShootingStar: well, there are three branches of government.

    I thought that this was a very good speech. Definitely worth watching regardless of your feelings about the results.

    @honeybear: I loved his speech as well. I was basically nodding my head the entire time
