The 2016 Presidential Election Results Thread

Earlier hard line Jewish Home party leader and Education Minister Naftali Bennett said the notion of a Palestinian state was over after Donald Trump's win.
"Trump's victory is an opportunity for Israel to immediately retract the notion of a Palestinian state in the centre of the country, which would hurt our security and just cause," he said.
"This is the position of the president-elect... The era of a Palestinian state is over."

Tromp has insisted all along that the election was rigged.

He should challenge his victory.

Right.
 
What's most bewildering to me, is that the people who will be hurt most by Trump's policies are the very ones that are giddy over his win.

If Trump guts the EPA it certainly will reduce costs to some industries. Pollution controls are expensive. America does have a large population demanding cheap manufactured goods. Walking away from free trade agreements could bring back some jobs.

But these are all short term things. Generally free trade over the long haul is good for the exchange of products and ideas. And it is future generations which will pay the price for gutting the EPA.

Politicians are supposed to be consummate managers with long term goals in mind. Guiding a nation through long term plans. Trump is a profiteer. Grab the cash and run.
 
I wonder what Botany Boy will say about the fact that despite the defeat of the candidate he never stopped deriding as a tool of Wall Street, the stocks of the major banks are all soaring today. It's almost like they know something he doesn't...
 
The Rust Belt strategy was what Toubab's thread up here is how Trump could win started. Looks prescient now doesn't it?

As does the poll he cited. I think having the same people you're talking to again and again listen people up so that they were able to be honest with the posters.

I don't see him as the type to Crow about being right but he needs to take a Victory lap.

I appreciate that, but no victory lap for me. I merely saw the obvious opportunity for a Trump victory. I didn't actually think he'd pull it off, to be honest. It was like drawing to an inside straight, early on. I only gave him a 50/50 chance with less than a week to go, when it looked like he had stopped stepping on his own dick, and might be smart enough not to do it again.

Trump is gutting the EPA now? Gawd I hate Toronto.
NAFTA and the soon to be dead TPP are both darlings of the Canuckistan Neo-Libtards, let's focus on those first.

And the Canadian troops that will soon be deployed to Latvia on a NATO mission. Brokered by Newt Gingrich.
What will REALLY twist your noodle is the same thing that had Hog Town Libtards apoplectic over Rob Ford. Occasionally the adults have to step in, and provide the best governance in your lifetime.
 
OH no!!!

No more Wall St. POTUS !

The sky is falling!! The sky is falling!!!

How will the country go on without a bunch of (D)'s fucking everyone up the ass to make themselves rich? :confused::eek::eek:

This was the funniest post of the thread. I didn't even mind spewing my soda on my laptop lol.
 
Wow! Watching the day after activity on our news. What with all the protests you'd think they were covering the election in some 3rd world shithole.

Yup, gutting the EPA because of too much regulation.

His poll had Trump winning the popular vote. That appears to be wrong. What part of his poll was correct?

The part tbat showed them trading leads in the final couple of weeks and the part where it never showed Clinton with 8-12 point leads in a country that leans to the right.

If not for the valiant "get out the vote" efforts of Californicators, she would have lost the popular vote too.

That's not what happened. Californians got out to vote for Bernie and were saddled with Hillary. Good try, though.

Actually, most didn't vote. Registration was at a record high but turnout was 33.3%, better than ~21% in 2012. Most Californios are voting NO CONFIDENCE in democracy.

But they got out to vote marijuana, right?

That's because the fucking morons don't realize this the USA isn't a democracy.

Never has been.

Never intended to be one.
