    Most of us may agree Trump is not the best person for the job, but lets look on the bright side. Janet Reno is gone and the Clintons will finally be out of politics.

    Not surprising the 538 BS has always been skewed towards left leaning outcomes. Of course they'd remain that way even in defeat.

    Insults is really all you have right now so goodnight to you.

    I appreciate your positive message I really do.

    For the bolded part though, I'm quite sure some people are not doing what they believe is best for everyone but best for THEM and 'Their' people. That's part of the problem. That's part of why Trump will have problems unifying this country because his rhetoric has divided it so. I'm 100% certain that some Trump supporters voted because they knew this wasn't best for Muslims.

    This has been debunked multiple times. Always better to research a quote prior to posting it.

    So glad we've moved on from Bush and Clinton political patriarchies.

    But very skeptical about what lies ahead even I think most things will be the same.

    I respect every democratic result but this is just shameful for the human race. Cogratz America. The strongest country in the world just voted for a misogynistic racistic person who also wants to ban a whole religion.

    CNN still hasn't called it either and Trump is about to make his speech. Maybe he should check in with them first...

    I doubt he cares what the Clinton News Network says about it. I mean, it's realistically over no matter who has accepted it yet.

    Oh well she can call Donald Trump to concede but can't face her supporters.

    fivethirtyeight has lost a lot of credibility. It seems Nate got too invested and skewed towards Hillary instead of sticking with the numbers and the trends. This election was decided a lot longer ago than the last few days. All the polling numbers were garbage. Those who had their mind made up voted early. Those who were truly conflicted put this terrible decision off as long as possible. Considering we went a good two weeks with no new scandals with Trump, that helped him tremendously.
