Is there any chance that the US could be playing an elaborate joke on the rest of the planet?

Someone own up.

it wasn't so much the votes against Clinton that surprised me, it was more the votes in favour of a massive misogynist
Let that tell you just how badly HRC communicated her message! Cant believe she could not smash this with all the help Trump gave her

Is there any campaign in US history that was a more embarrassing defeat than this will be if Clinton lose?
Warren Harding is always talked about as a pretty awful, unpopular president. I doubt his winning was seen as embarrassing for his opponent though.

Well at least we can say 2016 is a year to be remembered. Shame it's for all the wrong reasons but hey-ho.

Expect Florida to be called any minute.
Quite staggering really, Russia have successfully influenced a US election.

It's not so much that Hillary's a woman; it's that she lacks the human touch. Even her 'joy', let alone her spontaneity, doesn't convince.

I guess Dems were relying on minorities, but badly underestimated the white working class vote.

Michael Moore was right.

Why are people surprised at this? The amount of bigots and racists in America is gigantic.

I despise the Tories but I can at least accept they're qualified politicians. This guy isn't even that. He's genuinely an absolute fecking idiot. It isn't surprising. He's a xenophobe among other things but that one thing alone is what seals this for him.

Unbelievable. An actual racist becoming president of the United States. An actual orange, nasty, wig-wearing, misogynist, racist idiot becoming president. The problem isn't Trump, the problem is the massive amount of stupid idiots and that problem is not limited to the US.

I don't know if you mean this as a joke but I actually agree.

This is hilarious. Trump is despicable but you get what you deserve and most people aren't any better than he is.
