America is finally America again, its been a long 8 years of bullshit.

That America fucking sucks, though.

 

[BahamutPT]

Any bet takers on assassination year?..

...really?

Also pretty sure you just got on some list.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Hate breeds hate. No need for racism against whites. Break the cycle, don't become part of it.

That's worked out well for minorities so far. You know the often stated "be empathetic, see from their persepctive. <summon mlk like a pokemon>".

At this point I can't even be mad at any minority who utters that kind of shit tbh. Because prior to this, minorities always took the higher ground. When their land was taken, communities burned down, them being hung and abused by both the people and government of this country. Minorities were always told "don't stoop to their level. Love and unity will drive out hate."

Yet here we are. If minorities taking the high ground got us to this point, why not say the shit white people say to them? The pretense for taking the high ground based on love overcoming hate was killed tonight.

 

[btrboyev]

Well actually the majority is Clinton, it's the electoral system that gets us. California isn't even at half votes yet

They have to make up over a million votes. It's not going to happen.

 

[The_Dama]

Is it official yet?

 

[InfiniteBento]

this is fucking painful

 

[dankir]

President Donald Drumpf, enjoy it America you did this to yourselves. Can't wait to see how the next 4 years turn out.

What a disaster.

 

[gogosox82]

Do Dems have to go further right again?

That seems to be the case....

That would be the wrong lesson to learn from this.

 

[Kite]

I'm not American, but GAF has been telling me for months there was "literally zero chance Trump would win", so what's happening?

Gaf is an echo chamber, it is what it is. I understand wanting to make people feel comfortable, but if you start spending too much time here and drink too much of the koolaid.. you'll get detached from reality. Look at the numbers, less blacks and latinos voted for Hillary than Obama. People straight up got complacent or flirted with 3rd parties. (edit: also women, wtf I can't believe so many voted for Trump.. guess I drank too much of that koolaid as well, goddamn after the whole puusygate thing to, wow)

The Right has their echo chambers as well, but they've been at this far longer and are far better at it. The Republicans fell in line, that is it.

 

[Extra Sauce]

How is this going to affect videogames?

Videogames will go from being an escape to being the only escape.

 

[sestrugen]

This and Brexit proves that the majority of people on this planet are just fucking stupid.

Democracy

 

[RiccochetJ]

People voted for Trump and they wanted that cluster fuck of poor design remastered? We really took a loss today.

Hey, the 1887 Akimbo was fun when you were the one rocking them

 

[Damaniel]

So what's the chance of electors coming out to vote against idiocy even it means going against respective state laws?

Zero.

 

[Prophecy650]

I'm not even joking... The amount of hate trump gets...

 

[smokeymicpot]

Jesus Christ, why didn't Biden run?

His son passing away. That was more important to him which it should be didn't think he would be able to put his whole mind to it.

 

[liquidtmd]

Apathy. Especially people who saw the polls and decided to not vote because "it's going to be a blowout, I don't need to vote"

Just like the Brexit.

Pretty much.

The amount of GAF scoffing at those saying 'It could be a Brexit type shock' is there on record.

It feels exactly like that night.

 

[Falchion]

Mike Pence is his VP and will basically be running the administration. Basically, we are screwed.

That's so much worse.

 

[nocturnalis]

In order to win, I think Hillary would have to win Arizona, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, and Maine. She's losing in Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.

 

[Permanently A]

Something just dawned on me... Trump is surely an atheist.

We just got our first atheist President lol the fucking Irony

but the bible is literally his favorite book he said

 

[FieryBalrog]

Here's something GAF might understand.

Tolerance and love means listening to and respecting someone who voted for Trump.

If you can't do that, you don't get it.

Tolerance and love is not equal to delivering shrill sermons at people.

P.S. I didn't vote for Trump. I'm not white. Thanks!

 

[jax]

Definitely depressed at the thought of hearing the word bigly again

 

[turnbuckle]

Absolutely devastated at the results. I don't know what else to say. This feels a thousand times worse than when Bush won.

 

[cw_sasuke]

Celebs who said they'd leave the US if Trump won. Let's see who's full of shit. I'm guessing nearly 100% of them.

...yeah thats the main issue right now.

 

[Beartruck]

God, I hope the remaining Supreme Court Justices work out and eat healthy. They NEED to hold on for 4 more years.

 

[Goodacre0081]

54 vs 53 million votes. 200+million non voters?

 

[allan-bh]

A democrat candidate that can't win Pennsylvania can't win the presidency. It's a disaster if she lost there.

 

[KAOz]

WTF are you doing America!? WTF!

 

[Shiggy]

So Clinton will be imprisoned now, right?

 

[Dynasty8]

Wonder what Marc Cuban is thinking right now.

 

[Escape Goat]

who? no chance.

Its 4 years away. Nobody knew who Obama was until he made a speech in 2004.

 

[Josh5890]

Alternatively

David Bowie dies
Alan Rickman dies
Prince dies
Trump 2016

Don't forget that we lost the Greatest of All Time back in June.

 

[Peter Ian Staker]

It wasn't a Cubs Curse. It was the Cubs Sacrifice. They had to stay losing to keep the chaos at bay. Like Doctor Strange.

Fuck the Cubs, it was Bowie's death that started all of this.

 

[Htown]

So what's the chance of electors coming out to vote against idiocy even it means going against respective state laws?

Zero percent.

 

[gdt]

PA is about to wrap right up.

 

[Ambient80]

Any bet takers on assassination year?..

Not even a remotely funny thing to say.

 

[Even]

Guess relations with Cuba are done too, was nice while it lasted and I better go before Fuhrer Trump annexes it.


Ps. Hi Zep

Cuba has the Castros and you are worried about Trump?

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

Any bet takers on assassination year?..

Go fuck yourself you piece of shit.

Your guy didn't win. Let's talk about killing him. Great idea

 

[ISOM]

So many women voting for Turmp is a real shocker to me as well as the hispanic support. I guess some people like t

 

[SgtWiggles]

Where're those "must be your first election" posters?

This is much much much different than any other election.

 

[MrFortyFive]

So....my electoral map might have been slightly off.

I'm sure almost all of them are, if not all of them. I had Clinton winning narrowly and even then I thought I was probably off the mark...

 

[Talesofedna]

WTF are you doing America!? WTF!

Upgrading from Obama

 

[iamblades]

Well it's time to get 3 hours of sleep before work I guess.

I must say this is the most shocking political defeat I have ever witnessed. The democrats just got bodied on every possible level. I was not expecting that at all. Was expecting a slim but comfortable Clinton win, with a narrowing of the margin in congress.

 

[eyeball_kid]

Hillary is losing to Trump in PA by basically Jill Stein's votes.

 

[7DollarHagane]

So 4 years of not being able to blame whites for this, when the majority of whites voted for this?

Everyone knows that with demographics of the us being what they are you can't win just appealing to whites. You especially can't win appealing to only white men.

That only really happens if other groups simply don't show up or they also vote for that candidate.

So your anger belongs with trump voters and anti-trump citizens that didn't vote. That's all.

 

[GloriousBagel]

And the PS vita,

Since 2012 supposedly lol

 

[Omega Kirby]

In order to win, I think Hillary would have to win Arizona, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, and Maine. She's losing in Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.

It's over

 

[SchrodingerC]

He's handsome and hispanic and Murphy has a bad really record

This is some Trump tier lying.

 

[Fox Mulder]

Dude this will have effects that go beyond 4 years. We're talking decades upon decades.

So much shit is about to be fucked that people aren't aware of

Social Welfare? Gone
Affirmative Action? Gone
Voter's Rights Act? Gone
Net Neutrality? Gone
Abortion Rights? Gone
Expanded War on Drugs
Marriage Equality? Gone
Minimum wage? In some states gone
Mass Deportation
Racial Profiling
Expanded corporate influence over the government
Even more tax breaks for the 1%

It goes on and on.

He's not a traditional republican and clashed with many in the party. He got in without really committing to many concrete stances on policies.

Assuming the worst is fine, but the world won't end. there's always ways to fight.

 

[CrimsonSquall]

Where're those "must be your first election" posters?

I'm right here. Been holding this L for too long

 

[Rentahamster]

As a non-straight, non-white, non-gender binary person, I guess it's time to die.

No it's not. Please help us going forward. Everyone has a place.
