Mayor Kasim Reed: Donald Trump's Win ’Was Tough'
WABE "Where ATL Meets NPR" ^ | 11/10/2016 | MOLLY SAMUEL

Mayor Kasim Reed says he spent some time in the fetal position after Donald Trump won the election.

“I think the appropriate joke for me would be, I slept like a baby,” he said. “Sleep, get up cry a little bit, then go back to sleep, sleep get up cry a little bit. So it was tough.”

Reed was one of Hillary Clinton's most visible supporters in Georgia.

“I was with President Obama in 08. I was with him in 12. And I know what it feels like to go to sleep with your person winning. This time my person didn’t win,” he said. “And so what we’ve got to do for the country is just to get up and work with the folks who won. It is one of the beauties of our democracy, but it's not as pleasant as being on the other side where I was picking out my seat on the platform for the inaugural ceremony.”

Reed appeared with Republican Gov. Nathan Deal and Democratic Fulton County Chairman John Eaves today to announce a new UPS logistics center in Atlanta. They emphasized how they’ve worked together across party lines.

“We all understand that we may have different political affiliations, but in one form or the other, we all are elected to represent people in the state of Georgia,” Deal said. “When you’re looking and focusing on the people, job creation is one of the things that is very high on the list of importance.”

Reed said he believes Georgia will turn purple eventually.

“Cobb County being a Democrat county, Gwinnett County going Democrat, I think has huge long-term ramifications for the state,” he said.

Perhaps he, Garrison Keillor, and a few others can hold hands, cry, and go shoe shopping at the mall.

he may be right about the changing demographics in GA. a lot of people moving in from up north and bringing their liberal viruses.

plus a growing Hispanic population.

Yeah...Cobb County going for Madame Benghazi was a stunner. I'm hoping it was strictly a one-off.

None of it good.

I’m thinking that the map will flip. Who would have thought we might have a red Massachusetts and a blue South Carolina. Could happen.

Reed is all aboard with the Muslim and Hispanic illegal immigration train to turn this once proud state purple.

In time that means his @$$ will be booted from leadership positions too based on plain old demographics since his kindred folks love infanticide.

He seems to forget this demographics equation works both ways.

White liberals love minorities as long as whitey remain at the top. Dems need to figure how not to lose any more white voters in the future. This is like after 2012 when they told us we needed amnesty to get the Hispanic vote.

Now with President Trump we will see what happens with the illegals and Muslims.

This one clearly never had a man card. What a total waste of flesh. Report to the transgendered "ladies" room. Gag!
