    Trump has to keep WI and MI and not lose any of his other projections.

    Rural counties are going to tally quicker than the urban, so WI and MI are going to be i play to the very end.

    The one thing that will come out of a Trump presidency is Dems and Republicans hate him so they will finally work together so he doesn't destroy the country...

    In a lot of the swing states it was the baby boomer vote. These guys are overwhelmingly voting for Trump.

    That is what happens when you do not put up good candidates, I think Sanders would do even worse than Clinton. We bow to president Trump.

    Pennsylvania now seems to be slipping away from Clinton.

    There are a lot of brilliant people that voted for Trump. No doubt. He absolutely destroyed with the idiot vote however.

    We wonder why we are such a divided nation. Calling half of America stupid doesn't help.

    This American Life covered it well on their recent podcast about it. They hate that they have non white immigrants moving into their small towns. Specifically muslims. But they don't want Blacks or Latinos either.

    Can anyone explain why we can call states when not all the votes aren't counted?

    Like say for Ohio, 68% reported but they've called it for Trump. How does this work?

    It's fitting that he'd replace a rapist sex offender who loudly boasts of committing war crimes on the campaign trail.

    I'm watching...


    CNN is panicking, but they're not reporting anything close to these.

    They're showing a healthy lead in Pa. They're showing a shrinking lead for Trump in Michigan and claiming the Detroit metro vote has been largely uncounted for Hillary at this point.

    Michigan and Wisconsin are without a doubt too close to call. Pennsylvania is too, but there's not reason to believe it's shifting red...

    You have to figure the following will happen quickly:

    Dramatic reduction in taxes particularly for the wealthy
    Right-wing conservative appointment to the SC
    Obamacare is gone
    Plan Parenthood is gone - tightening of laws on Abortion
    Most entitlement programs will be eliminated or cut
    Voting Rights Act will be gone
    Soviet Union will re-emerge and eastern European countries will once again become part of their sphere of influence

    Statistics. They know about how many outstanding votes there are, and how they have historically split are currently split. So if you have more counties to report but they are all going toward the winner it is callable.
