The Election Night Thread - Part 1

[Spider-Who?]

Faith in what? Trump is a flipping moron, who doesn't understand anything.

Let me ask you some key questions: How will he make Mexico pay for the Wall? How will his plan make the American economy better?

Hillary sucks and that is why she lost, but lets not pretend Trump is some okay guy, just because she proved more popular then Hillary.

I NEVER said he was an ok guy. He isn't and I don't support him. But to answer your question, he won't get Mexico to pay for a wall. That wall isn't happening. I'll put money on it. As for the economy...I don't know. I never claimed he would be successful; my only claim was that we'd get through this.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Yep, people don't seem to realize that it's not just this moronic manchild who isn't qualified, it's the likes of Gingrich, Pence and Giuliani that will be put into power positions that makes things dangerous.

People are that stupid I guess.

 

[TheVileOne]

But he can stack the court with justices who agree with him.

That doesn't mean they are going to overturn gay marriage.

 

[Matt Mortem]

The electoral college needs abolished. It takes away the peoples voice. A candidate can win the popular vote, but lose the election. Horse****.

 

[SV Fan]

California could take weeks to count all their vote. But it's very possible she leads the popular vote with it.

In 2012 when you compare the day after the election results to the final results, Obama gain 5M votes compared to like 2.5M for Romney. California was the big culprit of alot of those votes

President can't overturn a Supreme court ruling.

He can appoint judges that will, though.

You do know Clinton lost the popular vote right?

 

[TheVileOne]

They aren't going to overturn it either.

 

[Donner]

It's a Supreme Court ruling. He can't overturn it.

Congress can negate it. If Trump is actually serious about taking away gay marriage, he can set the stage for it to happen. Same with abortion.

 

[Legendver2]

When will we know the final popular vote count? In a week?

 

[samsnee]

You do know Clinton lost the popular vote right?

They are still counting actual votes. California, even though it went to Clinton, still has votes being counted.

 

[SV Fan]

You do know Clinton lost the popular vote right?

It usually takes like a month or so before we get the official results. Right now we have 80% of the vote counted. In general most of that remaining vote will be in big urban centers

 

[Spider-Aziz]

When will we know the final popular vote count? In a week?

After they are done with tallying.


I have the same question.

 

[Legendver2]

You do know Clinton lost the popular vote right?

Not all votes form the remaining states are tallied yet. California, according to Yahoo, is only at 30% reporting with 2.6M for Hillary. The total tally, according to Yahoo, of popular votes shows Hillary down just 1.2m. That extra 4-5m from Cali, when finished, can bump her over.

[MagnarTheGreat]

You do know Clinton lost the popular vote right?

We don't know that for certain yet. California isn't all in and won't be for quite some time. That is the biggest population state in the United States.

 

[Hotwire]

They aren't going to overturn it either.

There's nothing stopping them.

 

[Juan1193]

Sad part of this election is when we get official results she probably will beat him in the popular vote. F' the electoral college

That is a very real possibility! And you know things will get ugly if that happens!

 

[TheVileOne]

We don't know that for certain yet. California isn't all in and won't be for quite some time. That is the biggest population state in the United States.

Even in those states, Trump made a high enough percentage to make up the difference.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

We don't know that for certain yet. California isn't all in and won't be for quite some time. That is the biggest population state in the United States.

We make up 10% of the US population I believe.

America may get through this, but it will be diminished. At this point China deserves to replace America as the world's super power, China is not inflicting wounds on itself.

Trump made a bunch of BS promises and his base will expect him to deliver, even if they are fantasy non sense.

 

[RiXi]

Well, gonna sleep right now. Gotta wake up early and start building that freaking wall

 

[Black Narcissus]

I wished we had a legit third party option.

This turd sandwich vs Giant *****e thing every 4 yrs ain't good, maynes.

I will roll some purp with my Bernie papers.

[Schlosser85]

The American people just pissed away any remnant of what made this country "great" in the name of making it great.
