HuffPost is aware if the next election's dynamics. If we handle these two years correctly, it could be glorious.
NONE of the media will admit why The Beast lost. Simple: America (at least those of us who watched, listened, and understood what was actually going on with Obama and Clinton) couldn’t stand the thought of it continuing. Total corruption is no way to run a country. The Beast is totally corrupt and we all know it and we came out in force to make sure she would never rule this country. Plain and simple.
Trump will be like a breath of fresh air after the last eight years of misery he has inflicted upon our beloved United States of America.
No, they do not. They're so stuck on identity politics that they can't even see the coalition that opposed them.
Optimistic Democrats have long believed the voter coalition behind Obama ― young people, brown people, lower-income people and a sprinkling of white professionals ― was a stable and growing majority that could always put Democrats over the top.
Didn't the Democrat base once include a rather large slice of white working class folks? Sort of missing in that equation, aren't they? The Party Of The Little Guy seemed preoccupied with kicking that poor schmuck to the curb and blaming him for the lack of racial and economic comity in the entire society. That's not going to win a lot of votes, and taking them for granted is far worse.
Many are interpreting Trumps election as a white supremacist backlash against the first black president and misogynist fear of a first woman president. After Trumps vile campaign, it is impossible to conclude these were not significant factors.
"Many" are fools. If there's a single sliver of Trump's coalition that may be remotely described as "white supremacist" I'll eat my MAGA hat. But there's a clue there. Use that phrase of hatred on those who aren't, and they're not too likely to vote for your side. Who did Hillary say she was going to have to "talk to" in order to establish better racial relationships? White people, of course. That single phrase caused a lot of eyebrows to raise and she never had a single clue. Nor could one credibly call anyone who voted for Sarah Palin "misogynist". That smear is past its expiration date.
Not a clue is right, not a clue that what killed Hillary's campaign was Hillary - remote, disengaged, disinterested, and blatantly, thoroughly corrupt. Trump was running three rallies a day when she was drinking scotch with heavy donors at private parties. She is known to be cheap, foul-tempered, ugly in speech and thought, dismissive of ordinary voters, and unbelievably entitled. How far she got is testimony to how powerful the Democrat political machine is, and in order for it to remain that way she had to win, and she didn't even try.
Even Stevie Wonder could see that one of the parties was going to implode after this landmark election.
Better them than us.
I love the crying, wailing and the gnashing of teeth of these communist turds.
Now, all we hear is: “we must come together, we need to reach across the aisle, etc, etc.” Well, you know what? We Won! Get OVER it!!!...hwaaahhhhhaaaaaa.
It sure is interesting to see now “watch the shoe as it goes the other foot”. We need to totally shut them out and ignore em like they did to us for 8 years.. That’s way better than just killin’ em outright. Let em suffer.
There will be months of finger-pointing and internal reprisals over exactly what Democrats should have done differently.
***
Yep! Heads will roll because they did not properly tabulate the number of fraudulent votes needed to overwhelm the Trump votes.
I didn’t see this posted already. Reading the comments, they still don’t get it.
...
The author gets it, at least as far as it was a huge victory for Trump.
The dems just assume they didn’t shame enough people calling them racist sexist bigots into voting for the most qualified candidate evah’.
breath taking to read, they still don’t get it. keep it up guys. like a suave they rub their wounds with cries of racism because they can’t look themselves in the mirror.
We Have Exploded
Happy to see the left squirming? OK. Enjoy it for a few more hours.
Then get ready for a no-rules sustain end attack from 360 degrees.
They have been exploding since 2010. They are now down to 5 Governorships and 5 Legislatures, let’s help them get to zero.
I won’t gloat. So I won’t bump this thread.

Who do they even have on the bench to come up in the next 6 years?
They mistakenly think people elected and particularly re-elected Obama because of his hard left liberal policies and actions. Wrong. He was elected and re-elected primarily because he is black, and secondarily because he has a "D" next to his name instead of an "R". And lots of people won't criticize his leftist crap because they're afraid of being labeled "racist."
Yet, Dems persist in believing most Americans approve of what he has been doing as leftist dictator in chief. They have since doubled & tripled down on socialist ideologies and "solutions," no longer even bothering to try and hide them in many cases as they used to. Emboldened in stupidity for the wrong reasons. Dem suicide - love to see it.
It’s not hard to understand. The rat party was taken over by leftist, unprincipled radicals, and the people said “enough!”
