Stunned, heavy hearts in LA for Trump win: Mayor appalled
My News LA ^ | November 9, 2016 | Debbie L. Sklar

Republican Donald Trump’s victory in Tuesday’s presidential election left some local Hillary Clinton supporters stunned, but Democratic elected officials tried to maintain a positive attitude as they looked to the future.

"Let me just speak for a moment from my heart, because I know for a lot of people tonight, your heart is heavy," Mayor Eric Garcetti told Clinton supporters in downtown Los Angeles Tuesday night. "I know it is in the little girls who I talked to this morning who joined their mothers and fathers at the ballot box to try to change history. I know it’s in the faces and the conversations I've had with immigrants, who are so fearful about their future in this America.

"Let me tell you, America is in this room tonight. Our America is right here. We're an America that says each one of us has worth," Garcetti said. "We’re an America that doesn’t ask you where you come from or what your religion is. We’re an America that doesn’t degrade you or insult you."

“4. Everyone must stop saying they are “stunned” and “shocked”. What you mean to say is that you were in a bubble and weren’t paying attention to your fellow Americans and their despair. YEARS of being neglected by both parties, the anger and the need for revenge against the system only grew. Along came a TV star they liked whose plan was to destroy both parties and tell them all “You’re fired!” Trump’s victory is no surprise. He was never a joke. Treating him as one only strengthened him. He is both a creature and a creation of the media and the media will never own that.” - Michael Moore.

Suck it up people. We did when your Magic Unicorn won.

Watch the Left carefully. They're already plotting.

You stupid leftists! you created an image of Trump for yourselves, and wound up believing it. Now you are afraid of what that false image is going to do to you and the country. Get over it. Trump is not hitler. He’s not evil. He is not a rapist. He’s not racist. He doesn’t hate gays.
You have yourselves to blame. You actually believed what your minds fabricated, and now you are trembling in fear.

Wait till they block grant medical to the states. Teetering on the financial edge with mirrors now, California will be beyond saving. BK for sure in their future in 2 years.

Let us not waste our time or energy in giving these people, the leftist media and the left any more attention, by posting their inane emotionalism & stupidity. They do not deserve it. They would not give a care for our feelings had they won.

It is morning in America again.

There are things to do and to plan. A rich benefactor should buy an alt right television station! As they say, if you build it, we will come! We need a solid investigative, truth seeking news station.

Let’s begin to unleash our energy towards righting this great vessel with President Elect Trump.
