Right now I am trying to be philosophical that it is what it is such as it is. And I remain hopeful that the American voter will have the good sense not to put Hillary Clinton in the White House.

Mixed.


Glad it will soon be OVER FINALLY... and worried about what the future holds after we make this difficult and unpalatable choice.

Since America must chose between HC and DT, there's no denying a complete lack of "good sense".
 
My brain seems bruised with NUMB surprise.

That may well be, but as I see it, it is what it is. And I see us having a chance for at least something good to come out of all this with Trump, as bad as he is, and I see no chance at all with Hillary.
 
Just voted and of course I want Hillary Clinton to win!

#ImWithHer

However unlike Trump and his supporters … I am not going to incite violence or wish for doom to our country or destruction to the other candidate or his supporters if I do not get my way.
 
I did my bit, I no longer care. I'm done. What happens, happens.
 
I can't summon feelings about this election anymore with regards to the candidates. I can summon a lot of feelings about rich white so-called liberals who're going to bat for Hillary with lies and non-truths, and also for the racists and uneducated people who've supported Trump, and are willing to literally condone and support sexual assault (Yeah, party of family values my ass). I can summon a lot of feelings towards the people who supported Trump and Hillary in the primaries, a lot of very strong, very negative emotions towards them.

I voted for Hillary in the Generals, but I've never hated her and her supporters more than I have right now. I ****ing pissed that the Wikileaks emails weren't around, I'm pissed that perfectly intelligent so-called liberals bought into her bull**** in the primaries. Same thing for Trump --although frankly, if you voted for any of the Republicans this time around, we genuinely share absolutely zero values in common.

It will be interesting to see which challenge we choose to face the world with.

Don't worry. Yet we are in the garden of worldly delights. It should take years for Trump to bring the country to its knees, though it could be quicker to cause pain and Clinton. I guess we will start working on the impeachment on Wednesday.

Impeachment for what?
 
It is now highly likely that Trump gets enough votes that he is close enough that this gets scored as a win for The Rebellion. I said that he needs to get within 5 points on the popular vote, and I think he will.

I love winning.

I'm at least hopeful that the GOP will keep the Senate and we will be able to rid the GOP of Trump and Trumpism.

yeah - thats pretty much me also. I have been watching six to 8 hours a day of coverage for the last two months and I have hit the wall a few days ago. I went out and bought four seasons of my newly discovered favorite show - RIPPER STREET - a BBC drama about Whitechapel in the late 1880's and 90's and have been binge watching to get my mind off the election.

If you think you have tasted the fiery pits of Hell so far - wait if Trump gets elected. You can turn up the heat and we all burn.

It is all going to depend on how many whites who have tended to vote D went to Trump and the number of disenfranchised whites turning up for the first time in a long time to vote for him. Low Black turnout could matter, and high Hispanic turnout, but what the whites do matters far more.

I wish you luck. You and any Democrats who'll be working to rid their party of Clintonism.
Know what else I hope for? Both parties to nominate someone who isn't a geriatric, someone maybe mid 40's, early 50's tops. Something that simple would be a positive shake-up.
