P&R Election Day 2016 Special

if only she didn't delete 33,000 moon readings!!

Some of it is genuine (between Hillary and Trump at least - they were friends!). I expect a lot of it is because they all really just want what's best for the country and realize that division is not the way forward.

From Trump's angle: as much as people liked chanting "Lock her up!" there is precisely zero chance that Trump does a thing about it. That whole thing is going to go away because Trump is going to have to make some friends on the other side of the aisle. He won, and winning gracefully isn't that hard (though people do screw it up).

From Hillary's angle: she goes out graciously, knowing this is probably her final act. She knows she got beat, and she's smart enough to know how and why she got beat. Going out as a sore loser discredits her very real (and whatever your politics, very impressive) legacy.

From Obama's angle: Obama has as much reason to loathe Trump as anyone, especially given that Trump's stated mission is to essentially unravel Obama's legacy. But Obama's usually been pretty good about taking the high road in public, and is concerned enough about the future of the country that he probably just wants to get the healing process underway as fast as possible.

If Obama is smart, he could actually pick the Supreme Court justice now. He is in the position to pick the one he likes the most from the list of 20 or so Trump has already released, saying that he would nominate them on his first days of office.

This is a perfect opportunity to finish his term on a high note.

It's all a conspiracy (isn't everything this year) and Trump, Clinton, Obama were always working together!!

This actually rankles me. The GOP's bad faith with regards to justices has now been rewarded, and that's shitty.

After South Korea, I actually believe this a lot.

Politics like usual.

I mean, there has been bad plays by both sides over the years that ends up benefiting those who are really pieces of ***. Like Cruz and his temper-tantrum government shutdown.

yup. you approve Obama's guy and pray for another justice to die like a man.

Pray that another justice dies on a non-presidential-election year with a D in the White House.

But honestly, this ploy can be done against the Republicans on a later date, and they can't *** about it then.

If you feel depressed today, remember Lordgrim 2020.

You don't know for sure that we didn't get Lordgrim 2016.

He said he'll be eligible in 2020 only, what don't you trust him?

Lordgrim did you change your name again ?

If Lordgrim is running hell I might throw my hat in the mix. Simpson's President elect !

Duff beer for everyone.

Who are you (or I) to say what he should or shouldn't be. If the farmer isn't physically harming anyone or violating someones property rights he can be as biggoted as he wants.

What about people on the other side? Should they only be allowed to express their opinion in the privacy of their own home? If you believe that, then why are you here, expressing your opinion in public?

Some people consider it ok to be bigoted against bigots. Never mind that they are doing the very thing they condemn.

So, to them, hypocrisy is not something to steer clear of, but to embrace and nurture.

It's just so hypocritical to protest a viewpoint in favor of your own.

A lot of protests are like that, especially Occupy Wall Street.

If the HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE Trump protesters would have spent a quarter of that precious time campaigning for Hillary maybe she wouldn't have had her *** handed to her in the general election.

you're actually pretty consistent.

She's like a shot of Crown Royal.
