While you can definitely make a case for Clinton being a tarnished candidate (who isn't), calling her evil is akin to asserting that fairies luve down the end of your back garden. Trump on the other hand, can only be called a fascist (if you're being charitable on him).

agreed

Hilary is corrupt but I wouldn't call her evil

Trump on the other hand fits every dark metric of nationalism I can think of

RE: Are you still grieving? You are not alone.
I can't stand Donald Trump and opposed him all the way through the Republican primaries.  As a political moderate I thought that John Kasich would have been an ideal candidate.  I ended up voting for Trump because of the supreme court, law and order, and the fact that I prefer the Republican philosophy of governing.

Hillary Clinton and the Democrats offered nothing for me.  I'm totally for abolishing injustice towards women, minorities and immigrants, but the Democratic party's philosophy is all one-sided.  It appears to me that Clinton and the Dems consistently labeled women and minorities as the good guys and white men as the bad guys (and rich people).  I'm as concerned as Hillary is about working for the disadvantaged, which I do on a regular basis, they seemingly ignored the plight of anyone who didn't belong to these groups.  I've had it up to my ears about how guilty I am for having "white privilege".  I guess that women were supposed to believe that because she was a woman that she was going to help them, although she never said just what she was going to do for them. 

Anyway, I like most everyone else had decided that Hillary Clinton would be our next president.  This caused me much distress, but I didn't lose any sleep over it.  I know that there is more to my existence than who the president is.  I'm good inside and I just go on living my life trying to do what I can, knowing that in the end everything is going to be ok.  If you think you can fix the world through the political process then good luck to you.

And there you are, buying the whole package, of course. Complete with David Duke's and the KKK's endorsment because they found themselves in his message. Complete with corruption being taken to a whole new level in the spirit of nepotism. Already selling out on photo ops on inauguration day and hunting trips for the pittance of a million dollars.

I hope you're having fun with what you bought. Republican message, my ass. Cleptocracy more likely.

The simple and hard truth here is that people despise Hillary so much that they are willing to choose Trump over her.

As a Democrat, you really should be coming down on the establishment who picked probably the only person in America who could have lost to Trump.
They cheated Bernie out of the nomination.
The Democrat bureaucrats caused this.

I would invite you to believe that Trump isn't as bad as you think he is, nore are his voters. As well I would invite you to believe that the reason you think he's so awful is because you buy into hysteria and bias in media. Anyway, that someone prefers Trump over Hillary doesn't necessitate that they think he's great; only that he's the lesser evil. Remember that when you think to judge.

It is perhaps small consolation but this is very true.   I am reminded of the last federal election here in Canada.  Many people were in shock and were completely devastated when Justin Trudeau won.  But with Canada's Leftist controlled media, very few outside of the country were really made aware of just how despised and hated Trudeau actually is by very many Canadians.   

Make no mistake, the pain, anger, frustration and despair goes both ways...
