Maybe if the Dems hadn't pissed off a significant chunk of their own demographics they might have won.. But when you conspire to fuck over one your own in the primaries who had grassroots support (much like Trump had and ultimately why Trump won) that can happen.. Hell Trump got 1/2 the Union vote which hadn't happened since Reagan.. Basically the Clinton Campaign as per usual took their voters for granted they assumed were safe and blew it big time.. They failed to accept that people really were pissed off over the state of affairs with jobs leaving the country.
The ACA aka Obamacare being anything but affordable except for those who were/are on Medicaid (and whom never would've NOT been on Medicaid even without the ACA).. Irony is it was the Millennials who basically BROKE Obamacare.. They refused to get coverage and were perfectly willing to take the hit for no insurance because #1 they likely weren't going to need insurance and the small 'fee' was cheaper then insurance coverage.. The result being premiums skyrocketed to cover everybody else who did get coverage which included everybody 35+ who usually come to find out had at least one chronic health issue.. I willingly admit I'm one of those who benefits from Insurance I pay in much less then I cost the carriers because well drug prices are insane.. My meds cash price would be over $2000 a month without insurance with copays and premiums probably cost me $400 so I'm a net loss to the carrier assuming no MD visits which I do have to have a few times a year baring no issues along the way.. They have to make that back up somehow. (add back in what the employer portion its still a 2-1 loss for the insurance company every month).
Honestly this was much more a case of the Dems screwed themselves nominating a candidate with so much baggage from decades in politics as well as questionable and downright illegal activities they should've seen this coming a mile away.. For some reason they put blinders on and somehow expect their loyal subjects to just blindly vote the D at the polls and it just doesn't work.. Hell Trump got 25% of the Bernie voters due to their disgust with how he was treated and the fact Trump was AntiTPP as well as his stance regarding foreign defense pacts (time for others to pay up and not the US taxpayers shouldering all the burden to keep the bad guys at bay) and doing something about the crumbling infrastructure in this country..
I think Tine would have to agree its a shame that we in the US who invented the Internet are wayyyy behind technologically to our neighbors overseas in residential IT infrastructure..
If you go by what the markets say, the big winners of election would be private prisons, fossil fuel companies, big pharma and the banks. As with brexit the medium to long term effect to markets highly depend on how little the supporters get. The less they get the better off they are.
With brexit there's no positive outcome for the future. It's just a matter of how much it will cost. With Trump giving Reaganomics another try markets are going to love that in the short term. Who doesn't love tax breaks and money dumped to the markets. In the long term it's a monte carlo system of economics.
How the money is spent in politics now, there might not be enough resistance to remind people that you already tried this the last time you were fawning over making america great again. On the other hand i'd guess it's assumed that all the talk about protectionism (tariffs, hindering workforce) just goes away and at best Trump supporters get some watered down version of it. Mostly because it's just bad for everyone from the perspective of the markets. What the domestic companies get isn't worth the risk of recession.

Good effort from this rag
This is the last time I ever respond to you. The reason why is I don't like you. If I met you in person id kick your face in.
Lol at you Liking Adleson... just shows what a shithead you really are. All I ever hear you talk about is jews this and jews that but now you worship the biggest jew cocksucker in the history of jews? Fuck you.
I got all my action @ -240 and under btw.
Now stop following me around and quit talking to me.
I lost under 20k when all is said and done.Not exactly life changing money.
But I agree I got cornholed. I was never so confident in a wager in my life. Lesson learned.
Let's just hope President Trump does a good job and does what's best for the people that voted for him

it would be surprising if he didnt pardon her, the surveillance / intelligence areas she was responsible for under his watch are ... poorly defined, legally.
and honestly trump wouldnt have promised to jail her if he wasnt sure obama wasnt going to give her immunity. thats not a precedent anyone in a position of authority wants to set. least of all when youre about to be handed the keys to the greatest surveillance machine in the history of bipeds.

Do people actually believe there will be more bloodshed globally under a Trump administration?
"Within 12 hours, Trump got Putin to agree to talks of a strengthened alliance, Netanyahu is excited for a stronger Israel alliance, and the markets are boosted. Not even President yet."
He's trying to rebuild, not build out.
“Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster... for when you gaze long into the abyss. The abyss gazes also into you.”.
The two principle concerns are that 1) he lacks the sophistication to avoid a boots on the ground confrontation with ISIS and 2) by scrapping our NATO commitments, he is allowing Russia to march uncontested into all the breakaway democracies as well as states like Poland. Russian occupations are rarely bloodless affairs.

I don't like Jews except for Sheldon. He made me a lot of money with his LVS stock. I was very happy to see you lose your ass in this election. You were just as cocky and arrogant as Hillary and you got your shit pushed in by a n-word with a 10 inch cock. You don't have to reply to me anymore but you can't help yourself. You are a pathetic troll who relies on wifey to pay the bills.

seriously, Trump could save 10 Liberian babies from slaughter of some crazed fighter that thinks eating a babies heart will make him invincible, with his own hands, have it all captured on national television, kiss every single baby and return them to their mothers safely....and sonatine would still complain about the way Trump was kissing the babies, probably write some diatribe about his narcissistic attitude while puckerd up or some stupid shit.
