I don't see what the big deal is, Trump's not gonna get re-elected. Neither would Hillary. And the United States of America is too large and strong and rich a country and a people to get completely wrekt by either of them. | ||

No. It's already lost what it's going to. You can't sell at yesterday's prices tomorrow. Hold and wait, your 401k will fluctuate but you're looking at long term, day to day changes don't mean much in the long term. | ||

In all fairness though, Trump by "definition" was hard to beat, mainly because he justified his open racism etc by telling people "i'm just not politically correct" - and people swallowed that. There's a huge amount of people who reacted/voted based on that alone, regardless of his "policies". I just wonder if the DNC fucked themselves by fucking Bernie. Bernie bros fucked themselves by voting for third party canidates or not voting. And Hillary had 3 million more votes, so its not like they went against the will of the people. Plus Bernie has plenty of skeletons in his closet like his writing about sex and woman, he and his wife bakrupting a college, his praise for soviet russia or his honey moon there. | ||

The big deal is everybody's freaking out and shouldn't be with respect to who Trump was running against. Clinton turned out the white-Anti-Hillary vote. I should add, people that want a full cockblock on illegal immigration with the wall so white people have another election of not being marginalized politically. | ||

Ignoring the Midwest in favor of galvanizing minorities alongside both coasts was probably more relevant. Also, leftwing discourse being dominated by "vote Clinton or you're a sexist, racist pig dripping with privilege" probably didn't help matters either. | ||

And as you can see, clearly the capacity to be attacked by opponents makes you fare worse than Clinton, to the point that it's unquestionable he would have lost his, what, 50+ lead in likeability. | ||

And lets be clear, bernie supporters (as himself) got screwed by the party. Now yes, he might have some "skeletons", but then ask yourself, are these worse than trumps/hillaries. | ||
