Not sure everyone realized that this is what "blowing things up" looks like. Or maybe they just don't care? Looking at the election results, it is not that they don't care, they are actually just that dumb. | ||

That part I was prepared to happen given 538's modeling of popular versus electoral. Every time I did a construction for a Trump win with guessed margins, Clinton got the popular vote. | ||

If you sort the polls by education, you see that majority of people with college education vote Clinton, and people with lower education vote Trump. That's what you hear in media all the time, and you might then think that poor people all vote Trump, but that might not be true. If you sort the polls by income, you'll see that the majority of poor people vote Clinton. After a certain income level, the majority is for Trump. Check out this poll here for example: http://cesrusc.org/election/ Click on the fourth tab named "characteristics of candidate support". | ||

Obviously I'll have my opinion on things but insofar as the results won't really affect my day to day life in an immediate way, it's hard to muster more than an apathetic reaction, regardless of the results. Exception of course being people who actually made money betting on the election. It's the same bullshit as Brexit. They don't care they just want funny shit to happen for their entertainment. And this is pretty funny. | ||

It takes more than a single presidential election to uproot the Washington establishment. They've been playing damage control since the day Trump became the Republican nominee, and until the public figures out they need to actually care about more than the presidential election, they'll stay where they are. | ||

When you say money, are you just holding cash? If so then it makes no sense to cash out. Even if you have index funds, the reason you hold them is to mitigate risk through diversification. | ||

I will say this though: people are WAY too excited about this win. There will be a harsh disappointment for people (you included) once you realize how little will change. | ||

Michael Moore is like, the one who called it, and time will tell to see if he is right. Once the adrenaline wears off, people will start to think rationally. | ||

Uhhh, it has already dropped probably the largest amount it will, and it would have to drop a shit ton more for it to make the penalty worth it. | ||
