So Bush-Cheney part II but replace corporate greed with religious lunacy?
Mike Pence would not be out of place during the Salem Witch trials.
I think he meant Wisconsin.
Michigan, Pennsylvania and New Hampshire to fall in Clinton's favor, majority of electoral votes in Maine + Minnesota and the hail mary win in Alaska which was surprisingly close in polls prior to election, and she'll be over 270. Fergie time comeback is on.
Until he actually becomes the president. Then it isn't smoke and mirrors anymore.
Of course it's not. Are you serious? The answers to issues like that are not as simple as the simpletons like to believe. Of course it is comforting to just go out and claim to have solutions that a drunk bloke at the pub would spout out. It feels good to live in the illusion that the good life is a simple matter of a few decisions away. The world doesn't work like that though and Trump knows it, he just knew that a large number of people were too desperate and frustrated to question it.
I'm not really having CNN right now. "These people want their Government back" etc etc.. Don't act like you were on board with it or that you in any way saw it coming.

I'm sure the truth lies somewhere in the middle. I just think the establishment factor is so much bigglier than any other factor by a big scale. Look at the recent trends; Corbyn, UKIP, Brexit, Bernie, Trump.. they are wildly differently politically and ideologically but they all have one thing in common.
I wish, man. It doesn't look like that at all at the moment.
makes more sense. a lot of milwaukee votes still not counted for.
Remember when people thought how much of a joke it was that Trump was running for president?
While i can readily understand the disillusionment aspect to all this, the willingness of voters to overlook Trump's personal failings (particularly in an election centred around the individual).
He is too much of a narcissist to worry about that IMO. This might inflate his opinion of Trump brand even more.
Ya, there will be setbacks on those fronts. Let's see how far they push back the country on those.
Yes. With a sprinkling of POTUS narcissism for good measure.
Eugh, Alex Jones is going to interview the president of the US at some point. Sickening.
dude is melting down on CNN.PA, MI & NH are within a percent at the moment. It can happen.
Noop, Minnesota. NYT has it as Clinton favoured by 0.7 and trending down - http://www.nytimes.com/elections/forecast/president/minnesota
Not sure any of them would vote for Hillary though
Jeffrey Lord sitting there now with a huge shit-eating grin
What can you even do with it? When you go to the circus you don't need to wear the beaglepuss.
feck it's going to be interesting. Repubs have a full on mandate, hold all three branches and have to go from obstructing to governing while bringing the country together. I bet they aren't exactly doing cartwheels. Big question is what does schumer do? work with them or feck them in the ass at every opportunity?
I'm here if you want to emigrate to Canada, @Melvyn darling.
Some decent ham would be fantastic right about now.
Nonsense. Once he becomes the president, all bets are off. There is no way of knowing what he'll do.
Van Jones is going to cry any minute now.
On a more positive note, the rest of this season of Southpark is going to be even better.
Ah, OK. Figured MN was locked for Clinton.
The country sees her as a corrupt insider who repeatedly pointed out what a cnut Trump was. Not realising that the guys who've elected him didn't care that he was a cnut, they just wanted a live grenade to lob into Washington to destroy exactly what she represents. So he was able to address their issues without policies-she was unable to do it at all (whether policies would have worked had she based her campaign on herself more, is a separate matter)
Do you think Obama has been (or has been perceived as) a good president by the electorate?
Well it's not over till it's over or something like that.Damn, how do you maintain this positivity? Impressive
Probably the alcohol.
So with the GOP holding full house now, what will Obamacare transform to? Can't get any worse, can it?
Wonder what John Oliver and Bill Maher will say now..

RBG, please delay all retirement plans and have regular health checks.
There won't be any Obamacare. It's done.
Think it's finally a positive thing for once to be hiding out in a corner of Australia.
Not for the first time. The guy cries at least once every evening.
Yeah, they both did. I still don't have a clue where any of them stand politically.
They get what they deserve.
Their first disappearing trick.
Want healthcare? Make more money or let cancer take it's course.
