You guys are all more politics and government savvy than me.

Just so I can sleep tonight, I have to ask.

We have made sure, at some point, that it is not actually possible for a US President to just say "*** it, no more elections, I am King now." right?

I mean... no one stopped him from running when they should have, but there has got to be something in place to stop him from ACTUALLY becoming Hitler 2.0 right? Please?

Yea don't believe the hype of if "x" wins the country is over. This country has survived world wars civil wars discrimination abortions and polar bears dying... I think we can handle a Trump or a pantsuit.

I'll put your mind at ease Santa Claus is coming to town in about a month. You'll be playing FFXV and watching Asian women degrade themselves for money...

Wow, people are getting mean when it comes to Nate Silver. The dude gave Trump the best chance of anybody in the pollster field, and he's getting ripped to shreds anyway.

there are methods and regulations in place to prevent it. But much like any law, its a matter of whether or not they are upheld and enforced properly. And as hillary has shown, they can be gotten around...

Over the years I've learned to never set my emotion high or low. Always try to rationalize things that are irrational. Or I try to at least !

That is how I view politics and life in general.

Definitely feel like they would all be calling this for Clinton at this point, if the numbers were reversed.

I guess in the end, they can't actually end the world, or completely destroy America.

I just feel a sadness inside, I think about Veteran's Day coming up and having served for 5 years I feel like I was part of this whole thing in a way, maybe other Vets feel that way? But right now, that feels really bad. I feel ashamed or maybe betrayed in a way, that my time and my service eventually led us to this?

I don't even care about Trump, who he is, what he has done, what he will do. The thing that bugs me is that the President shouldn't be a celebrity, that is what feels more disgusting about it than anything to me right now. Like... it is a joke now. 2020 could legit be Kanye West VS Hulk Hogan or some kinda trash, because no one cared enough about it to stop Trump, so who is gunna bother 4 years from now?

And I feel this way after 5 years service in the NAVY, like baby-mode military service. I can only image what retirees feel like, wounded vets, people who have lost a loved one, the marines and soldiers over there RIGHT NOW.

It sucks. It is a joke and it is embarrassing. I hope we fix this somehow before 2020. bleh

A lot of them haven't even called Wisconsin yet. I understand having a little bit of caution, but it's getting a bit ridiculous. These are the same people who gave Karl Rove a ton of crap for not wanting to call Florida for Obama in 2012.

I love you all, even the haters. The corruption of the government took a loss tonight, and for that, I am thankful.

If I were a Democrat, I would be seriously looking to put some media heads on a platter. For the past couple days, I kept saying to some Democrats at work that the media and its premature celebrations would damage turnout. On a larger scale, the media propped her up, refused to acknowledge reality, refused to report fairly, and in doing so shot itself in the foot and destroyed its own credibility. They fed the anti-establishment fires and reinforced the "rigged" perception even as Trump was pointing it out.

But I guess it's easier to blame the opposition, so I don't know if the left will ever hold their own accountable.

Good. I haven't contributed to my Roth IRA this year yet, so I might as well max it out now.

Some states might not declare tonight/today. There is huge issues with it being too close to call.
