I don't understand how someone can call themselves a liberal or a democrat yet hand the GOP, the House, the Senate, The Supremce Court AND the Presidency in one night.
We're ****ed for at least a decade.
On immigration.
On healthcare.
On taxes.

She was close in states she lost and ran away with victory in big states she won (California, New York, etc)

Thank you all for explaining. I think that's a very unfair system.. it's not right. This way it's like few people actually voted for the president

If you are a person who prays, please do not forget about our brothers & sisters in the Baltic region who will be gravely affected by this.

It kinda is. Especially since a lot of young democrats move out of the south to more Blue states. Which means Dems are all concentrated in a few states and therefore states like Ohio and Iowa start leaning and going red.

The so called SJW (the real one) are to blame partially.

Instead of criminalizing them, we need to have a discussion with them, it's often rooted in ignorance of the others instead a true real racism. When we do criminalize them, they turn to extreme.
Then, as an european who watched the CNN broadcast and even reading this thread, it is really disturbing to see how EVERYTHING is seen through the prism of race. The black did that, the whites did that, the latinos did that. Gosh, is that really the way to understand the voting ? Can't you guys refer to, I don't know social class, education levels, age (some did do not get me wrong) stuff that are more likely to actually have influence a vote. There is a racial issue in the US, but I feel everybody is echoing it, and it's getting bigger and bigger and you all have a role to play in order to prevent that. Stop saying the blacks should not do that, or say that, or the white this and that; just stop for ffs. If you want to criticize a person, criticize the ****ING person, enough already.
Y'all need to fix this, and QUICKLY, the whole World can suffer from your stupidity, so FIX IT.

This is a really good post. I agree we can't pin all the people who voted for Trump as racist.

I find it odd how you say the racial tension issue is being exaggerated in the US but SJWs are partially why Trump won. It's the exact opposite.
