I'll blame the Democrats for nominating an unpopular shrew who could not even beat the blow hard with a bad hairdoo.

I'll blame it on that, and the people that voted for Trump.

I can't really blame people for voting for the blowhard with a bad hairdoo. He speaks to them in their language. He's who they want. I'm not sure that the same could be said for the Hillary foisted on the Democrats. It seems to me that there was a concerted effort to limit her competition. Trump faced 18 viable candidates and beat them all. Hillary faced an old Jew who was not even a Democrat--and barely beat him.
 
Hillary and her posse of course.
Anyone but Hillary would have this in the bag, by a landslide.

I'll blame it on you and all the others who have consistently elected elitists who succumbed to the lure of money and power at the expense of the rule of law, honesty and honor.

Stupidity. Sheer and utter stupidity.

Well, that and the fact that the Democrats ran the one person that every "white nationalist" across the country hates with a fury of a million burning suns and a lot of normal people don't really like.

But hey--- at least we'll have

A draft dodger president who apparently thought the Hanoi Hilton was actually a nice hotel and not, you know, a rotting torture camp

A guy who hates Mexicans(though I'm sure some of his followers are good people :roll:)


A guy who thinks making money is a bigger sacrifice than giving your life in combat

A guy who thinks "joking" about having somebody shoot his opponents is a good idea

A guy who doesn't much give a damn about our allies--- or anybody who doesn't stroke his ego, for that matter
 
No one.

He is no worse than any prior candidate and better than some.

People need to stop acting like electing him will be a travesty of democracy.

IMO the only people who can really think so are those who have bought into the labeling designed to make him seem worse than he is.

Before the primaries were over, some in the media was saying how Rubio and Cruz were worse than Trump. :lol:

Don't blame me, I voted for Kasich--an honest guy with honor who follows the rule of law.

The media.
I know, it's tin foil hat stuff.
This election has shown me that all pretense of objectivity in the MSM has been thrown out the window.
They're biased as hell.

They've always been biased. But that bias is different depending on which news outlet you listen to.

Blame?

Not everybody's candidate wins elections.

The bigger picture is the growth of voters rejecting the inside the beltway game politicians have been playing for far too long.

This election seems to be a referendum on Super Status Quo Globalist Liberalism, versus Anything But Status Quo Capitalism Nationalism.

The powers that be in Washington and in State Houses around the country appear to voters to have forgotten who they work for, and why they are there.

A vote for one candidate accepts this disconnect, while the vote for the other likely represents the hope that disconnect will change.

Just to clarify this.
No matter who the GOP ran, he/she would of been labeled the 2nd coming of Hitler.
They wanted Hillary to win, more than anything.

Hillary was forced on the Dems. No one else from the party was given an opportunity. That's why her only competition was an Independent. The Dems who wanted a shot were pushed aside. Smart politician stayed out of the race...let her crash-burn and run in 2020.

I'm looking at the bright side---I am a glass half full kind of dude.

IMO, if Hillary loses, she's gone and are the Clintons and all the horses in her court. Good riddance. It's almost worth seeing Trump as president for 4 years to get that outcome.

They took her in and propped her up.
They didn't have to, but they did.

They're just as responsible.
 
If Hillary had won the nomination fairly, it would be the voters fault.

But as it stands, should we end up with .... him ....

We'll have Hillary, Debbie, and the rest of the DNC-for-Hillary gang to thank.

Their actions during the primary (and their subsequent revelation) poisoned Hillary for many people in the middle, and if she loses, those people would certainly have made the difference. We can't even pretend the primaries were fair. Anyone who wants to maintain (or restore) the integrity of our democratic process can not vote for her, no matter how bad Trump is.

Trump. He has run a successful campaign against the odds and emerged the winner.

To some folks, democracy is a fundamentally important thing in our nation, until party dominance gets in the way.
I will never again, believe that a lot of people actually value this.
