The polls have closed and the electoral firewall Hillary was banking on to prevent the Barbarian from crashing the gates and taking over
Results are all over the place. She's up. She's down. It's too close to call.
I'm flashing back to game seven in Cleveland last week, when the Cubs had a three-run lead.
Nate Silver: "We're in a state of suspended animation right now . . . no major state has fallen to Clinton."
"Uh-oh. I'm starting to feel panic set in."
My editor's pacing around in a state of terror.
Texts are now pouring in from friends and relatives: "I'm nervous. I'm feeling sick. I may vomit."
To make it worse, exit polls say that more than 50 percent of white women voted for him.
A cry from down the hall. Another editor has discovered that FiveThirtyEight updated its projection and Trump has a 55 percent chance of winning.
The Republicans control everything. There are no checks and balances.
Trump will fill Scalia's vacancy and all the judicial vacancies.
What does this mean for the press? He despises the press. His supporters joke about lynching reporters.
I get a text from my Bernie bro telling me that Trumpsters are jubilant.
I'd like to crack a joke. I haven't felt this much political gloom and doom since the Reagan landslide of 1980.
But this may be worse. Reagan at least offered hope.
Trump is dark and mean and foreboding. Always talking about locking people up. Or beating them up. Or investigating his opponents and punishing his enemies.
Hold it. Clinton takes Colorado. The firewall. But Ohio goes to Trump. And Wisconsin and Michigan and Pennsylvania are leaning his way.
It could come down to Arizona and Alaska. Home of McCain and Palinthe 2008 ticket.
This is surreal.

Always the big lie with leftist thugs.
Don’t forget, Spike Lee was permitted to film “Chiraq” in the city, but the Chicago City Council voted to remove a honorary
“Trump Plaza” street sign across from his hotel because Trump dared to criticize crime and violence in the city!
Here’s a quote:
I have a flashback to 40th Ward alderman Patrick O’Connor’s warning a few days back. This was after the City Council voted to take down an honorary street sign outside Trump Tower.
You don’t want to upset a guy like Trump, O’Connor cautioned.
“If you put a guy like Trump in the office, with whom we have an absolutely terrible relationship, any discretion that he could exercise that would hurt us I think he would,” O’Connor said. “It will be a terrible thing for us personally in Chicago if he were to become president.”
O’Connor continued: “That’s something he understands: Getting even with people. Going after people he doesn’t like. He understands that real well.”
The difference is they (and the rest of the suffering state) now have to live with the consequences of their actions. There won't be a bailout from the Trump administration.
Obama has been flooding Chicago with Muslims. Some streets look like Baghdad now.
“the world was finally freed of the USSR and many concentration camps, operating as Soviet Satellite States, were finally freed.”
For those of the author’s worldview, that was a horrendous catastrophe!!!! /s;)
Chicagoans can go back to murdering one another.
681 total homicides so far this year.
Yep. I despise Obama from the deepest parts of my heart, but when he was elected twice...it did not define me.
Unless defining means highlighting what I am not.
Hopefully they can break a thousand. Remember as long as they are killing each other,the innocents are being spared.
SH8T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
no wonder ChiTown is going downhill so rapidly
what a shame!
a once-great city
Ben will never realize that he was the problem.
Yea it’s unbelievable. One of my cousins said she wanted Trump assassinated. I’m glad she is lives in another state. The arguments would be be unbearable.
I’d take the places that have oil.
Not to worry - if we're joking we'll let you know first.
Which we didn't.
Donald couldn’t make an offer they can’t refuse
Chicago can just go and Carpe Dung.
#23. So Chicago is a blue island...
Hey, according to some jackass Democrat congressman, if we put a few more people there, it will tip over.
Chicago might have once been a great city, but now it is nothing more than a perpetual morgue for its inhabitants, except for the rich white liberals who don’t live with the “brothers” they are so concerned about. /sarc
But consider that. They are Republicans. How have Republicans used their majorities in Congress or their occupation of the White House in the last 16 years? Being all Republicans offers faint hope and should not concern the lefties terribly except that the Left is about Us vs THEM even more than Ideology.
They still don’t ‘get it’ - - they’ll keep reading us wrong and we’ll keep winning... Life is good. Too bad there aren’t more elections coming up. We could mop the flood with these old snowflakes.
