Official presidential election results thread - Nov. 8, 2016

The problem is this:

Under Bush, so called conservatives rolled over as Bush expanded the government and eroded civil liberties.

It wasnt until Obama got into office that people started objecting to more debt, indefinite detentions, citizen kill lists, warrant-less spying etc.

My concern/fear is that the same thing is going to happen all over again.

The Right is going to be fine with whatever Emperor Trump wants to do regardless of how egregious its going to be.

Only time will tell.

Globalists in a temper tantrum tanking the pre-markets to spite the Trump win just like Brexit.

Exactly, this could be a dangerous situation, if he gets in they will throw some fits.

I would say that all the free air time the media gave Trump would count as them influencing it.

I think a lot of people were disgusted at how the media layed into him over any petty little thing they could find, while ignoring all of Hilary's criminal behavior and all they did was create some reverse psychology.

Trump 254-209. He wins if he pulls out Pennsylvania. Or Wisconsin and Nevada.

John Stossels site that had Hillary winning in a landslide all year and through tonight is down. https://electionbettingodds.com/

It has gone down a bunch tonight. It is overloaded with traffic. Every single person in the country has been visiting it.

I don't like Trump, I don't think he is qualified to be president.

But I am so enjoying watching the liberal media totally losing their $#@!.

I hate the Clintons, I hope the whole Clinton crime family finally goes to prison.

Well it's a good thing that someone with the temperament of Donal Trump is not in charge of the criminal justice system in this country... oh wait...

PA not likely , WI likely NV too early yet.

And they do that by voting for their guy?!

I don't know. If Trump is signing my check, I think better toward him than toward Hillary. That city has been hurt by the bad economy. People have jobs are happy to be working.

GA for Trump.

I'm just hoping there are enough "globalists", along with guys like Rand who understand economics, in Congress to prevent the scumbag from jacking up tariffs. He can tear up the TPP for all I give a fuck, I wouldn't sign it either. Just don't let him make things worse. Everything else he would try to do is the same as what Hillary would do, so it doesn't matter anyway, it's going to get done.

I just noticed your avatar. Would you vote Stannis?

Not in real life. I just like him as a character.

Wisconsin called for Trump

I love how the commentariat keep talking about "non-college white men." Like college makes you smarter. It didn't help the commentariat who have been in Hillary's camp forever.

Drumpf leading in MI by 38K votes with 65% reporting.

 

[AuH20]

Rand needs to ally himself with Trump. They need to make up. Trump needs allies in Washington.

 

[Ender]

Utah looks like its going drump 53 to 22 with 25% in. Evan McMullin might actually be helping drumpf.

Most of McMullen's votes, which are, in many counties MORE than Clinton's, would never have gone to her- he actually took votes away from Trump.

 

[oyarde]

Trump leading Mi with 65 % in by 40K . Thats how close this is

The passive aggressive is strong with this one!

That's not what I meant. I can't remember what you said - media, elites, establishment or whatever . I said he is THEIR guy. I can't believe people really think otherwise. They don't care which wins, and they perfectly orchestrated it to get you all emotionally involved to want their guy to win. I didn't think they were that good- I'm "impressed".

 

[The Gold Standard]

Rand needs to ally himself with Trump. They need to make up. Trump needs allies in Washington.

And here I am hoping Rand will lead the charge for gridlock. We were fucked either way tonight.

 

[P3ter_Griffin]

does anyone know what turnout is like compared to previous elections?

 

[AngryCanadian]

Trump has 232 wow lol
