And OH PLEASE. The markets didn't crash.
Enough with the scare tactic drama. Enough. This is our country.
Actually the market closed very high today. So much for the world crumbling.
Markets were crazy. My boss sold a ton of stocks because they shot up too high not to. I am just thinking all the profit taking selling due to that might cause a drop in days to come

America, what have you done?
We don't know his agenda. We don't know why he sought this office. He has no plan, no experience and a very limited understanding of government , is highly impulsive , grandiose , vulgar and sprouts a hateful rhetoric. The congress is majority republican and he can appoint justices. God help us. If you are crying tears of joy I dont know what to say....

100 day plan
I didn't vote for him (or her...or anyone actually. Just in local races). But he has laid out a plan.
I also wanted to add the the IQ comment above (although now she has clearly backpeddled on it) is EXACTLY why Trump won. Because of the condescension of people in solidly blue urban areas who were unwilling to believe that other people may have had other opinions. I think if people want only a 4 year term, they need to fix the Democratic Party, look outside the bubble of those who they surround themselves with, and recognize the pulse of the other half of the country's population. It's so simple to write off Trump supporters as 'racist, mysoginistic, and against the LBGT community.' But when nearly 1/2 of the country voted for this man, you're willing to make that sweeping generalization?! That's not fair and upsetting to those who don't align themselves with those values.
Michael Moore said essentially the same thing MONTHS ago. This election should NOT have come as a shock to anyone given the last 16-17 months.

This is going to be a long and tumultuous 4 years.
I am scared.
I am scared for our future
I am scared for the economy
I am scared for women''s rights
I am scared for the state of race relations
I am scared for the established diplomatic relationships
I am effing terrified that this person has no filter
I am effing terrified that this person now has control over "the button"
I feel sick to my stomach.
Agree
Word for word 
Me too

God Bless the USA, I am crying tears of Joy!!!
We better hope God blesses us in some way because he may be the least Godly man we have ever had in office!
I am sorry but Clinton was the most corrupt piece of garbage to ever run for office. Trump loves this Country and our core values Its clear by the vote, nobody wanted Crooked Clinton. I am happy for the future of my children. This election was the beginning of the end for our children's future and I finally feel hopeful the middle class will survive
And he's shining example of a good American?!?!? LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Make no mistake, Trump does NOT care about middle class America and he will do NOTHING to help any of us "regular people". You're kidding yourself to think otherwise. You and every other Trump supporter just fcuked this country. Congrats.

He's simply a deal maker and businessman. He only knows how to make deals that benefit him, his ego, and fortune. Every situation he comes across will be dealt with as if it were a business deal. No human thought, no feelings, no foresight. Just deals.

And for a bunch of women who claim to be supportive of women, you sure attacked me for having an opposing view from you. Wow talk about being intolerant.
Huh? You voted for someone who said hateful things about women, immigrants, Muslims, etc. and you want people to be tolerant to you? Nope.
People aren't tolerant to people who are saying they are supporting the "values" he said he supports under the disguise of racism.
On the other thread you called people who voted for him $hit, I really don't care about your opinion. You don't know me or my life.
The KKK has eagerly and openly (make no mistake about it, they have been very open and not hiding to supporting him in secret) boasted their support for your candidate. What would you call the KKK?

America, what have you done?
I woke up and cried yesterday. I was terrified. I could not believe a reality TV star, a self proclaimed millionaire who spews hate from every hole in his big orange body would be voted into such a prestigious and importnt role. I then deleted Facebook because I could not handle the gloating trash on my page.
I can sympathize with the few who voted for Trump to witch the White House to Republican, something different than what we have had for far too long. I wish to God we had a different Republican option.
Now this, this is why I am terrified to have Trump in office, my mom owns a deli, I work part time there. A customer who has repeatedly through the years bragged about how he is living off his disability check that he lied and cheated to get (his words) came in last night, CHANTING "Trump, Trump, now it is time to get all of them in cattle cars and drive them out of here, time to take care of our own. Load the cattle cars."
My blood boiled, this is the mentality that MANY, not all, Trump supporters have, because of thing Trump himself has said and implied. I can not get on board with that. I can not respect that.

It's amazing how words are twisted to fit needs. She didn't call just the kkk sh"t. She called anyone who voted for trump Shi$. How very mature.

My post was a simple question so do not twist my words... you elected Trump. The KKK openly supported and elected your candidate. After his victory they posted his image on the front page of their site backed by the U.S. seal and tweeted that they had a HUGE hand in the outcome of the election and his victory. A Trump presidency is now synonymous with the KKK. So, what do you consider the KKK?

I consider the KKK horrible and I'm sure most people who voted for trump (or against Hillary in my case) feel the same. A very good question was posted earlier that no one responded to.... basically it asked iif we should assume Hillary supports are ok with the treatment of women in the places she accepted money from, countries that treat woman like property? How is that any different than saying people who support trump support the kkk and are racist?

Yes, there are several Saudi countries that donated money to the Clinton Foundation, and we can argue semantics about if she accepted donations, or the charity, but I'd rather not. She's connected to the Foundation, so she's associated in some degree.
I don't condone what those countries do, by any means.
For better or worse, those countries are allies with us, and we do a LOT of business with them on many fronts. My company does, Trumps companies do, Coca-Cola, Cigna, Citicorp, Exxon, Boing, etc. Doesn't make it right, but it's just a terrible fact of international affairs.
I would never try and condone everything that another person does, even a candidate that supposedly represents me. When given only two choices, we have to make a Pro and Con list for both, and we hope we pick the person with a longer Pro list for us than a Con list....

So basically, "business is just business?"
I am not disagreeing with much of what you wrote and in fact believe that is what many Trump voters did - they made a pro and con list. Some of his statements probably made the con side. But as you said, it doesnt mean you agree with every single thing about a candidate.

For better or worse, those countries are allies with us, and we do a LOT of business with them on many fronts. My company does, Trumps companies do, Coca-Cola, Cigna, Citicorp, Exxon, Boing, etc. Doesn't make it right, but it's just a terrible fact of international affairs.
I would never try and condone everything that another person does, even a candidate that supposedly represents me. When given only two choices, we have to make a Pro and Con list for both, and we hope we pick the person with a longer Pro list for us than a Con list....
Your response is totally rational to me. You can't agree with everything a candidate says or does, so you weigh your options and make a choice.
I'm more interested to hear from the few who are so black and white on everything and see no gray. The ones that call ALL trump voters racists. What does it make them since they support a candidate that takes donations from these countries with zero respect for women, gays, etc.

And for a bunch of women who claim to be supportive of women, you sure attacked me for having an opposing view from you. Wow talk about being intolerant.
Huh? You voted for someone who said hateful things about women, immigrants, Muslims, etc. and you want people to be tolerant to you? Nope.
People aren't tolerant to people who are saying they are supporting the "values" he said he supports under the disguise of racism.
On the other thread you called people who voted for him $hit, I really don't care about your opinion. You don't know me or my life.
The KKK has eagerly and openly (make no mistake about it, they have been very open and not hiding to supporting him in secret) boasted their support for your candidate. What would you call the KKK?
It's amazing how words are twisted to fit needs. She didn't call just the kkk sh"t. She called anyone who voted for trump Shi$. How very mature.
My post was a simple question so do not twist my words... you elected Trump. The KKK openly supported and elected your candidate. After his victory they posted his image on the front page of their site backed by the U.S. seal and tweeted that they had a HUGE hand in the outcome of the election and his victory. A Trump presidency is now synonymous with the KKK. So, what do you consider the KKK?
I consider the KKK horrible and I'm sure most people who voted for trump (or against Hillary in my case) feel the same. A very good question was posted earlier that no one responded to.... basically it asked iif we should assume Hillary supports are ok with the treatment of women in the places she accepted money from, countries that treat woman like property? How is that any different than saying people who support trump support the kkk and are racist?
Yes that was my question and no, nobody responded to it. But I am sure the response would be something like "that is TOTALLY different!"

But you wont hear from them. It doesnt fit the narrative.

Re: America, what have you done?
Also, its interesting how so many people are blaming Trump's win totally on the fact that half of America is racist. Really?
Perhaps the Democratic party should look in the mirror and share the blame. They chose the most hated politician in the country as their candidate. They excused her actions involving our national security as simply "careless." They ignored all the corruption surrounding the Clintons and their foundation.
Then, to top it off, they spent the next year telling white conservatives how racist, homophobic, and privileged they were. Not exactly the best strategy to get their votes.
Trump was an AWFUL candidate! But so was she. I believe any other Democratic candidate would have beat him by a mile. Especially Bernie, who they bullied out of the race.
Sorry Democrats. This one is on you.

I completely agree with this. I place a large part of the blame on Debbie Wasserman Schultz and her cronies over at the DNC. It's outrageous how they treated Bernie. I truly believe he would have won it all if not for them.

I had said when I heard he won that if they had put up ANYONE else, ANYONE other than her, he wouldn't have won. That's the shame of it
Both candidates were terrible.
