2016 US Presidential Elections | Trump Wins
- Thread starter Raoul
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

Podesta really falling flat here.
Alright, he had to "hand over" the presidency. The point is people claim that Clinton is untrustworthy because apparently she was not straight forward with the emails and some other issues. How many American presidents have done the same worse and still enjoy high approval ratings? It is simply either naïve or hypocritical that people are acting like it's so shocking that a politician can be manipulative and double faced. Since I do not think that that many are naïve, I can only assume that the fact she is a woman has something to do with it.
Just woke up to Trump. FFS, America 
And Trump doesn't?
What the feck did that mean by Podesta?
The irony is that all this probably wouldn't have happened if Obama hadn't roasted Trump at the WH dinner in 2011. The match that started the fire.
Podesta calling off any speeches tonight.
Clinton 2020
Podesta
Hilary bottled a speech

Haha Podesta sending everyone home. Imagine Trump's team did that!
It was Nixon
Boris won the US general elections?
If I was a Clinton fan there I'd be bigly booing that patronising shite from Podesta.
Nope Reagan served out his full two terms. If you are thinking of Nixon, fine but he is not popular at all
CNN chap melting
What an embarrassment by Hillary and team
What an embarrassment by Hillary and team
I would guess, esp since McCrory has disputed the call.
Van Jones - what a thespian.Pointless clinging on without acknowledging the result. Concede, reorganise and fight back.
So she's not admitting she lost?
Clinton not making a public appearance... Health scare!!!
What is she hiding?
What is she hiding?
she was never going to take defeat well, let's be honest
He won the lottery more like.
Well I've just woken up to this. It's pretty fecking unreal it must be said.
I'm going to leave the doom-laden predictions to others and stick with the one unequivocal positive of President Trump:
No President Hillary Clinton. I am not happy about Trump winning, and I have various reservations about what it'll mean for us and the rest of the world in the next four years. But the fact that in my heart of hearts I'm not devastated, nor outraged, nor even particularly sad about Trump's win speaks volumes. I don't think Trump will be good for America, but nor do I think Hillary Clinton would have been. I don't believe her and her ilk give a shit about the people of America, I think she wanted the presidency because she feels it is her place to wield power over people, and I can't help but be pleased that she's taken a kick in the teeth tonight. If Trump leaves enough of America and the world left in four years for Hillary and her hordes of corporate shill, born to rule, career politicians can be replaced by people who actually want to get into office to improve the lives of ordinary people, good.
I'm not happy that Trump has won, but I'm taking grim satisfaction in the fact that Hillary hasn't. You might say it isn't the time for any kind of satisfaction, but I can't help how I feel about this. If you're worried for yourself and your family because of this result, then I'm sorry and I'm not looking to twist any knives. I just can't help how I feel about Clinton's defeat.

What the hell is Clinton's camp playing at?
Can't believe someone who said as many outright racist and bigot things as Trump has been voted into office.

I'd like to see you have the guts to go out there on the night of the biggest disappointment of your life after spending years working towards something and then make a speech praising somebody like Trump.
she must be devastated.
What's his problem!?CNN chap melting
What an embarrassment by Hillary and team
Yeah but people still hate Nixon
Ah fair enough! I mixed Nixon with Reagan. I stayed up the whole night. Clearly beginning to take its toll
. But I disagree that he is not popular. The fact still remains that what Clinton is accused of is absolutely nothing new but for some reason, it has never been met with the same level vitriol and anger.Allow a woman to wallow in her failure for a night. Clinton's legacy will be defined by this failure.
She is doing exactly what she warned Trump would dangerously do.. She feels more entitled than Trump.
Imagine Trump refused to face his public after losing.

I admittedly don't follow American politics, the elections in particular are essentially the x factor meets wwe
The trump thing has all been a good laugh and everything but I never thought for a second he could win , it's like Mr blobby winning the nobel prize, who in their right mind is voting for him ?
Seriously wtf is going on ?

So no conceding speech because she is 'devastated'?!
You know you're clutching straws
Was them wot won it:
Basket of deplorables Trump 99.1 - 0.9 Clinton
1% Margin Of Error

1% Margin Of Error
And the rest. May be way off but got the feeling she worked under Obama for 8 years very begrudgingly just on the promise and assumption that she'd be the next President. She's literally dreamed of this day for probably over a decade. Devastating.
too many people still caught up in the trump is "literally hitler" mentality.
The most worrying thing is there's now nothing stopping the Reps enforcing their backwards moves.
To go from an imperfect but progressive man who actually seems to care in Obama, to a moron who will probably try and reverse any good they've done with healthcare and climate change is just sad.
I hate it when idiots get what they want.

Real cowardly stuff that. You make your supporters wait hours in a hall and then send Podesta to tell them go home. If you think you still got a chance, then come out and give a short statement.
Looks like sour grapes.
