Trump can't start his presidency by burning his own powerbase. It would make him a lame duck from day 1 without the ability to get anything done. The first thing he will have to do is make peace with Paul ryan and get something easy done in the first 100 days.

I'm glad people are finally waking up to Trump being the nominee. I think it validates a lot of what I've been saying for a long time but I suppose Introvert will still disagree.

On the spending side, there's been about $180,000,000 spent so far on the Republican side. Approximately $9m was used to attack Trump, they've been running scared the whole campaign.


It's basically up to Democrats to decide if they want to win or not. Hillary will lose, Bernie will win.

I just don't think she can take Michigan. Sure Only 52% reporting and "omg still Detroit" with that only being at 575 out of 999 reported but that doesn't even make it underrepresented.
The only hope for her I'm seeing there would be Washtenaw County at 10 out of 143 reporting ( 70 vs 25 lead for Clinton) that's still out. Not sure if that's enough votes, could get close


Looking at Michigan I see a chance Washtenaw and Wayne put her over the top. Wisconsin is scarier imo.

PA is also a growing worry, given the %s

How can he purge the parties center when its the difference between the party having a majority and not having the majority?

There can't be a "deep purge" without uprooting their local constituencies.

If that hasn't made abundantly clear, bad congresspeople are hard to get rid of if their local constituencies are still willing to re-elect them. That's why people like McConnell and DWS are still around.

Regardless, the key is Trump. Like I have been saying for a year or so, Trump is going to make deals in Washington to get things done. He will give things up to get what he really wants. There's going to be a return to more "bipartisan" normalcy


Why because he wrote the Art of the Deal? This is just you hoping that a good outcome you dreamed up will happen.

what did he say
The unrealistic sound of these propositions is indicative, not of their utopian character, but of the strength of the forces which prevent their realization.

I know a majority of TL will disagree and hate this result, but this is for the best. Out of the two candidates we are choosing the least corrupt out of the two.

Originally I wasn't even going to vote as both candidates were so shitty. Then I did legit research, not doing research on biased sites like fox news/CNN/MSN/etc. Not listening to the Media, this site, reddit and definitely not my Facebook, but actually looking into them. Reading the DNC emails, I will never understand how people can vote for Hillary. If the leaks where Trump cheated his way into the Primary, had CNN paid off to ask specific questions to his opponent, I would vote Hillary 100%. But that's not what happened, instead we got one of, if not the most corrupt candidate the US has ever had, Hillary as his opponent.


I hope Trump is good, don't know if he will actually be a good president or not, but I know he's better than Hillary will ever be. So I hope Trump wins tonight, I know it's looking good, but until it's 100% it's not over.


Is it not true that trump is filling his cabinet with idiots?

Well... what can you do right now? You can only try to look at the bright side of this situation here.

I'm sure if you sit down with a large teapot and do the same as blade55555, read a thousand or so of the DNC and Podesta emails, you'll get a really terrible feeling about Clinton as well. That can then perhaps be channelled into a positive outlook for the future. Liberals were supposed to be the good guys. With that mindset the collusion with media and wall street and foreign donors is seriously disappointing. A good thing that could happen now is that if Dems really lose today, this could be taken as an opportunity to purge the party of this corruption, to go back to having pure dreams for the future instead of using the system as a get-rich-quick-scheme.


You say that like the collusion is a recent phenomenon. It goes back for a few decades at least.

If anything, I think the Democratic Party was too in love with its self-image.

just as you wrote it a bunch from Wayne gets in. That puts her at 47.2 vs 47.8 but again, Wayne is now like 718 reported out of 999, so if anything that's overrepresented and Washtenaw has to make up for everything else.

But yeah I agree, Wisconsin 4-5% down is probably even tougher for her

So Clinton has to win Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Nevada. She down in 3 of the four.

Viva El Presidente Trump.
