Well...that was disappointing.

Such is life, though.

Wow, people *really* must hate Clinton, huh?

It looks like Republicans will still be majority in the House and Senate. Are you imagining what is going to happen to this country with an entirely Republican-controlled government? They're going to repeal Obamacare and replace it with bullshit. I'm not going to have health insurance. ...I have kidney disease, I'm guaranteed to have to get a transplant within the next 2 years. What am I going to do?

I had no idea you had these health issues, egg. Sad I am so sorry.

It does not surprise me that so many idiots exist in 'Murica.

My thoughts exactly. That's literally the only explanation to why so many ppl would vote for a person like trump. This shall go down in history as the 2 most unpopular candidates of all time. It really sucks.

The crazy thing is, we knew it too. We just hoped that people hated Trump more. Turns out they didn't.

It's like someone said on twitter.

Britain: Well, we just did the dumbest most selfish thing ever with Brexit.
USA: Here, hold my beer.

Maybe the DNC and the democratic party will learn from the fiasco and pay more attention to workers' sorrows?

For four years, the Republicans will have total control of all three branches of government.  I'm not sure there'll be a democratic party left in four years.
