Our campaign lost the election. But Trump’s team must own up to how he won

I know how to be a gracious loser.

I could have let it go last week when Kellyanne Conway, Donald Trump’s campaign manager, challenged me to look her in the eye and say she ran a campaign that gave white supremacists a platform. I considered for a split second. I knew you were supposed to be gracious when you come for the post-election forum at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government. But I decided this was a year where normal rules don’t apply. Speaking the truth was more important.

Whites are perceived as supremacists for the simple reason whites are supreme.

That ranking may be questioned with the rise of China. But, the Dutch and British and Spanish and Portuguese empires were supreme throughout the world. To insist other wise is to deny history

And if the Russians are so good at hacking then why did they only hack DNC-HQ and Podesta’s Gmail account. These are like a ‘2’ on the degree of difficulty.

I guess other stuff was “too hard?”

Man, I love me some Jennifer Palmerie whining in the morning! Nothing makes my coffee taste better than reading some screed by the TEAM THAT LOST!

It’s never about; “We Suck and the American Voter Spanked us” NO, its always about someone was UNFAIR! We should have won but these evil Republicans cheated and didn’t play fair! Now Where is My Participation Trophy!

Yea, having a flaming Queer run your campaign probably had noting to do with turning off the entire middle America!

Our candidate gave us a good model to follow. She had the grace to call Trump on election night to congratulate him and concede.

Only after Bambi called her and told her she had no choice.

The campaign has ended, and we accept that Trump won. But we are not laying down our principles or abandoning our supporters.

Oh, like the way your candidate who gave you such a good model to follow did, when she refused to come out and address her campaign on election night, and instead sent Podesta?

They’re still in denial. Clinton was a HORRIBLE candidate.

People don’t buy the assertion that in eight years, after giving Obama 53% of the vote, we’re all a bunch of white supremacists.

It’s the economy, stupid, and all Democrats have done for the past eight years is idiotic social engineering.

“....she refused to come out ...” More like she was being sedated to restrain her and keep safe any vases, ashtrays or lamps in a 5 mile radius.

Time to retire Palmieri. Nobody is ever going to hire you and “Mookie” to be political consultants. Better find a new Gig.

Couple of real beauties, both inside as well as external. She looks like Coach Chuck Noll with long, skanky hair.

I read some of Jen’s emails on the WikiLeaks Podesta site. She’s a POS both during and after the campaign.

This pos is very self-delusional and a vicious anti-Catholic as well.

LOL! Milo wasn’t running it was he? I think he must be a fake gay guy hired by the Trump campaign in order to convince gays that Trump was okay. Now the plans to deport all AAs, glbts, foreigners, and certain saxophone players can get in to the planning stages.

Trump does not have to do S**T for you or your spawn or your lib friends. This is what winning means.

Now take your participation certificate, go to your safe space, and please, for all of us, don’t come out.
