U.S. Presidential Election Day Megathread [Official]

[Elegiac]

No, I mean making a big deal when someone says "Bad Hombre" and pretending its a racial slur.

Let me know when this is actually a significant occurrence.

Nah, its more like the progressives telling Trump supporters who they really hate.

"I think we should enforce current immigration laws!"

RACIST!!!!!

"I'm not sure if taking in Syrians into our country, considering the language, cultural, religious, etc barriers, is a smart move. Maybe we should build safe zones over there in Syria for them instead?"

ISLAMOPHOBE!!!!!!

"I don't buy the wage gap, I think the difference is due to life choices..."

SEXIST!!!!!!!

"I think the best qualified person should get the job!"

BIGOT!!!!!!!

That's PC culture.

And again, let me know when Trump or his gaggle of idiots actually try to forward discourse in that fashion rather than making bullshit remarks about building a wall or the like.

[Stonecloak]

The salt lmao.

[starlord]

all i can say is, i really hope everything works out for the best. Kansas saw what unchecked republicans achieve; welcome to the new america.

[jimboa24]

Fox News has Trump at 254 votes. Of course that's a projection, other news sites are more conservative in how many votes they put Trump at, but assuming they're not wrong (which I think is probably a safe bet), then if PA goes to Trump...it's over and he's won.

[Taneras]

Let's see the actual votes vs electoral college. It's not unheard of the more popular candidate lost.

The headwind Trump had to overcome spells out which way the country is trending.

Most of the media, Hollywood, Silicon Valley, Wall Street, big banks/corporations, etc. All favored Hillary.

Hell, even the GOP was split. Trump fought all of the above plus the GOP Establishment (Bush family, etc) and still won.

Trump essentially won a boxing match with one hand and foot tied behind his back.

[Elegiac]

Liberals will be scratching their heads for years over this loss.

"How did we lose? We called him a bigot / sexist / racist....that normally works..."

We're already aware that demagoguery is effective, the issue was whether or not American voters were stupid enough to buy it.

[Dextroden]

sigh

Like I've said before, this is what happens when stupid people are allowed to vote. We're going to have to come up with a new idiom for the level of stupidity we saw from the Berniebros today... "cutting off your nose to spite your face," doesn't imply anywhere near a sufficient level of willful stupidity.

Funny how people are for poll tests when the idiots aren't voting for them.

God. I need popcorn for all this salt.

[Mafic]

I just hope that with this defeat, we are finally free of the Clintonistas, or Clintoneones, or whatever you want to call them. I'm so sick of Bill and Hillary. Let some new Democrats in, and please God not Michelle. Can we be done with political family dynasties please?

Bush---->Clinton X 2----->Bush X 2----> Obama (Clinton lite) X 2

Hopefully this is the end of the Clinton/Bush dynasty and the end of the 90's era politics.

[Grimbold21]

Is it snowing or is this the nuclear fallout already happening?

[LilSaihah]

We're a damn reality show now.

The first use of executive power will be renaming the USA to Trump Country.

[Antereon]

So when can we start blaming Trump for everything?

[Jester Joe]

Wait what, did Trump win? Did you americans actually elect him? Bwahahaha

New Yorker here, I tried my best as did the rest of the state apparently.

[Venant]

The sad part is, Dump supporters will think that song truely represents what the future holds for them!

But you and I - who actually watch the walking dead - know so much better... don't we? ;P

So Trump is Negan? That's funny because somebody I know who was voting for Trump made that exact analogy, and he said that's why he was voting for Trump.

[GennGreymane]

So when can we start blaming Trump for everything?

in 2 years after they keep the thanks Obama meme going.

[Adam Jensen]

We're already aware that demagoguery is effective, the issue was whether or not American voters were stupid enough to buy it.

Apparently we are.

Its a convenient method for dismissing legit social concerns. Dog whistle politics. That person is a sjw/cuck/pc so we can ignore them. Nothing new. Sjw is the 2016 equivelant of calling someone a communist or liberal during mccarthy.

[Omians]

That's not possible. Trump thinks it's a hoax.

from the outside In. but if he has access to all that classified info after getting in. maybe his word will change? i cannot say lol

[Deleted]

What space? Which PC people? Can you be more specific? What SJW mindset? People confuse SJWs for common decency half the time. Which detracts for the real problem... the fact anita sakrazian (or how ever you spelt it) got to speak at the UN, because she got threatened with death and rape. Which gave her legitimacy!

Like, you want an example? Feminism. Feminism today means following - 3rd wave campus feminism. Why even give them space? How many votes can they produce? Or do you think all women support it?

[TheFuse]

You don't blame a retard for flinging shit, you blame its care takers for letting it out in public. This is 100% the people's problem.

Well, let's be fair, McCarthy was actually dead on the money when he called someone a commy.
