    Sane and rational doesn't imply accurate forecasting ability though. Most people stayed home because they figured Clinton would win handily and that their vote wouldn't matter in any event, so there was no sense of urgency to get out for a candidate they didn't really like that much to begin with. If there had been a practice round like in the French system, there's no way Trump wins.

    Well, a majority of voters voted against Trump. How ever you look at it .. the system elected Trump, not the people.

    Briand and John share the same goal, same intentions - but they can't talk to each other, however they can react to each other's in game activities.
    Now see how far Brian and John get in WoW.

    A: 70 million or so is a crap load of voters
    B: 3 million margin against Trump is pretty sizeable margin
    C: The assumption that the system allows for just anyone go go and vote is itself a misunderstanding.

    Blaming people when the system is at fault is not conducive to a solution.

    Recent polls suggest a rerun of the 2000-2006 fiasco, just with some new fresh faces. Woohooo sanctions galore!

    One fatal flaw with your argument, the world is the recipient of the US government.

    Unsuprisingly. Next they are going to blame snow on Russia.

    How very convenient. You know reminds me of good ol' Cold War. So funny watching how proud americans like Skroe here probably tremble in terror from almighty Russia that is now cyber superpower.(or was it crumbling-economy-reckless Russia, the liberals are changing their narrative so fast I can't keep track of it.)

    Currently i am disappointed. America voted Trump into office after all, no matter how many people support him currently. Will all his lies he used in 2016 bring the voters back to the GOP and him? That is whats it all about.

    well the only thing he really had going for him against Clinton was the paper thin facade of not being a puppet of the deep state or special interests. now that everyone knows what a empty suit he is his chances are diminishing by the day. but it'll once again come down to the Dems to come up with an appealing answer to Trump which AFAIK they have none.

    yes yes lets ignore how this Trump-Russia fiasco could have been avoided if Trump wasn't so desperate to sweep it under the rug. how if he had just let Comey do his job and not fired him for looking into him and his administration he could have avoided whats happening tomorrow. no wonder you are what you are, trying so hard to cover for your mole.

    I'm half surprised you're not screaming about emails and Benghazi.

    What gets me is pretty much everything they found wrong with Hillary he could pretty much be the poster child for.

    Majority of Americans are sane rational folk. Just because there is currently a clueless buffoon at the helm, doesn't mean the passengers all complicit.
    The same can be said about Iran. The most peaceful country in the region.
