The Election Night Thread - Part 1

Those of you who say this doesn't effect you because you're a citizen realize that a ****ing recession or depression will effect you, right? Unless you're in the 1%, you're not exactly well off.

You could have voted in Vince and it would have been better trhan Trump.

I am watching Smackdown right now. Kind of making me feel a bit better.

Exactly. Exactly. Same with a lack of regulation when it comes to food and water.

I think the only way to end the GOP is to give them enough rope to hang themselves with.

Let this moron be President, but don't come crying to me when it turns out he doesn't know what he is doing.

Here in NYC you have a lot of undocumented workers in service industries. Let's say Trump goes through with his word and sends them all home. The restaurants now have to hire on the books. Pay more on already tight margins. They raise their prices. People except the super rich eat out less. They have to shut down. It's domino effect. Immigrants are the backbone of this country. I'm not saying they should be here illegally forever but the idea to deport all of them in an instant has horrible long term consequences.

Pleased with the results, Trump was not my first choice when the GOP race started, I liked Carson. But as a Christian I feel he is a better choice then Hillary. This election is showing that people are saying they are sick of the current state of Washington DC and want some real change and not a clearly corrupt politician that will be same old same old. Everyone saying end of the world is mostly overreaction and frustration that they lost. I expect things to be about the same as they are now with less moral decline that we got from the Obama administration.

I'm a Christian too, but you can't honestly believe Trump's not every bit as dirty. I mean you have a right to your opinion, and I agree it's not the apocalypse. However he's definitely the type that lies to your face, and talks about you behind your back. His audio leaks, and flip flopping party lines speak volumes. Let alone his very un-Christian stances on race, and gender (i.e. love your neighbor). Don't get me wrong, I dislike Clinton too, just don't fool yourself into thinking Trump's any better. He's the epitomy of self centered, ego driven wallstreet fat cats. Hell even his public speeches show his true nature.

Seriously, will the EPA still be there?

I don't understand why Clinton spent time in Arizona this week instead of Wisconsin and Michigan.

I'm sickened by people going "huh, okay I'm not personally effected all is well." I wonder if they have any idea how they come off to those of us who could be very personally effected by all of this. That disregard for others is exactly what got us here. We just got brutally hit and as long as you don't think you are personally effected you're shrugging it off? Some of us could very well likely BE effected in very personal ways by this.

This is literally in Revelations.

I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet (Rev 1:10):

And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils (Rev 18:2):

And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof. And he measured the wall thereof (Rev 21:17):

Nope. We have literally set our country back decades, and people don't even understand how or why. It is embarrassing.

The stock markets here and around the world are currently in crash mode.

Well, here is one light spot in this dark day.

Arizona's most racist sheriff is out on his ass.

Probably thought she had Wisconsin in the bag. I thought she did a last minute rally in Michigan.

Wisconsin was barely visited according to CNN.

Uh-oh, we're sunk for a few years.

Even if Trump goes through with deportation laws, it won't be a mass exodus, and it won't happen over night. We simply don't have the money or man power for something like that; never mind how long it'll be fought in congress, even under republican rule.

At a time like this, we need to keep heads clear; jumping the gun, thinking irrationally, and shouting "the sky is falling" doesn't do anyone any good. This isn't the first time a bad president was picked and it won't be the last.

We went through a recession 8 years ago.
