General Politics Discussion [ARCHIVED] • Page 1210

From the Slate article:

I want to try and remain positive like everyone else but it's way too early to be saying things like "life goes on, we'll get through this" when we have no idea of what's actually coming or what to be prepared for.

 

The thought of having to raise my daughter through this made me break down in tears this morning.

 

Is Hillary still expected to win the popular vote?

 

a president who didn't know the result of brexit votes in the country he was standing in at the time

 

i wanted to type something longer but i can't and i don't want to get out of bed and go to a school of people who will largely be excited

 

sorry for the quadruple post but i'm not following any rules anymore

 

Same. Today when others are riled up I don't wanna get out of bed. I have only sarcasm left.

 

My friend and I just woke up after last night, we're basically just making dark jokes about the wall and what Trump is going to do. We might as well.

 

I legitimately cant get off my couch, I just dont feel like I can and cant take my mind off of this. I just want to get away, I want to fly away. Yeah, yeah. :(

 

I'm beginning to understand the doom & gloom mentality of Republicans from the last eight years

 

It's the pendulum swing.

 

Seeing a lot of this.

 

The feeling is, unbelievably, even worse this next morning.

 

i should have said more and i should have prevented more

 

not a complete picture obviously, but still...

 

I just keep thinking of what Gramsci said:

"The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born; now is the time of monsters."

 

every vote matters.

 

And she won the non-white working class by a lot.

 

Damn.

 

Well, this is something. Yesterday there was no doubt in my mind Hillary would win. What a time to be alive.
