    I'm not even mad, just disappointed. When such a person can get this far in the US election, it tells much about your country. I mean, electing some radical right-wing candidate like that.. I'm from Norway, of course, so compared to our right-wing candidates, this guy is radical. Just radical. That guy wouldn't even be allowed to participate in our elections.

    I think it shows a lot. Critics have called this a choice between the lesser of two evils, and so, given Trump won, it inevitably means people liked Clinton even less. It shows the power of swing states in an election, and it also shows how wrong some of the polling companies get it when you compare pre election predictions with the real thing.

    I feel like all the non American players are really glad that they don't live in America.
    For the record, I supported neither Trump nor Hillary, seeing how Trump is unfit to be a president, and Hillary is a national felon.

    also forgot to mention it is very possible Trump will be charged with sexual assault given that dozens of women confirmed that what Donald Trump himself claimed he did on national television.

    Hillary used a private email server and America wants her in jail. Trump literally claimed that he would date his daughter if he could (which is not only disgusting not illegal) along with other many disgusting and potentially illegal acts and it seems they ignore that. What is wrong with America. I am very ashamed to be an American right now. 2016 will make America the worlds laughing stock for the next 100 years. History books will write about 2016 as the point when America started screwing itself over.

    Exactly xD. Canada might well see a surplus of immigrants in the coming years.

    that's quite the claim. However, Clinton has been the subject for a lot of shameful acts as well. She is responsible for the "disappearances" of many officials that went against her views, her criminal act is apparently being overlooked as well as Trump's apparent assault. I just don't understand why you are being so biased here. You hold the democratic nominee on a pedestal like she's some kind of god sent, yet you also seem to forget that she's literally the reason Trump won. Had it been Bernie Sanders against Trump, Bernie would've won hands down. However, Clinton pulled some strings (they were borderline illegal, but she's very good at not crossing that boundary on most things) and ended up making it pretty much impossible for Bernie to win the nomination. At least when I take a look at who I want to vote for, I look at both sides critically instead of just accepting who my parents tell me to vote for. I also don't attempt to hold a political debate (on a minecraft server no less, but I suppose I'm also a culprit of that) without taking a look at both side's flaws and strengths. You're a weak debater due to your biased attitude and lack of research. I don't know how people here could sit at their computers reading your comments and believe that you are being both fair and just in your proposal.

    "lack of research" ok. First off, I trade stocks and manage others funds so I follow economics and other news that impact the economy extremely closely. The truth is, a Trump presidency spells out a economic depression. His tax plan is simply stupid. If you do the math, the tax plan will add 6 trillion to the debt. His economic policies, however is even worse. A 45% tax on Chinese imports will raise the price of pretty much almost every product we buy. Simple iPhones will cost literally thousands of dollars. Our domestic industry is irrelevant and helping them at the cost of every major US company will cost millions of Americans their jobs. It is very possible your parents jobs are at risk. I'm not saying Clinton is the best presidential candidate we ever had but she in no way a criminal. However, there is literally no reasons to vote for Trump over Clinton. She beats him on every issue and her tax plan is far more superior to Trump's dumb plan that will cost add 6 trillion to the debt on tax alone. My parents never told me to vote for anything. I look at Clinton's "shady activities" and see I am baffled by how people completely blow them out of proportion. As to my weak debating, lets look at your reasons. "she used gmail" "Trump will bring changes" "I don't hold a political debate without looking at both side's flaws and strengths" Her use of a private email server has been declared harmless by the FBI. Trumps claims and promises to the working class is literally impossible to do without destroying the economy. And obviously you do not look at Trump's policies closely and then put it into context. You overlook Trump's record of being a lowlife and a despicable person throughout his life. You overlook the fact that Trump's tax plan and economic policies is ****. You overlook Trump's miserably incompetence and point to email. I don't know how people actually try to reason their support of Trump as there are no reason to support trump. If you believe I am a weak debater, I would like to have real debate with you over Skype or teamspeak to destroy every weak claim you will make.

    It matters heavily, seeing as how all of them were wrong.

    I was very happy when Trump won. I like the idea that hes a buisness man, I like the idea that hes out spoken and blunt. Im quite excited to see what he does in office and even more excited to look back on this 50 years from now. What I dont like, is all this drama ****. The man just got elected, he hasent even done anything yet and people hate him. Why? He had as gooda chance as Hilary in winning this the American way. He won it fair and squire and people are just butt hurt people hes a little PG13

    Embarrassed!


    The popular vote was for Hillary.

    Based on what we know the odds are in our favor:
    1) Chances are he won't fullfill any of his promises.
    2) His rhetoric is dangerous to the country.
    3) #hesnotmypresident. And I see this becoming a movement to impeach or replace him.
    4) He is so divisive that the Democratic party has 4 years to take him down....or more likely his own party will take him out when they realize he isn't a conservative. Dundundun!


    You must have missed the part where he openly insulted nearly every one during the general election during his rallies. This isn't about being butt hurt, he is an asshole.


    Knew you were a super genius Chops! I trade stocks too and Trump has no plan.

    For those that don't know.

    Watch one of his interviews. He can't even put together a coherent thought. He just *****es about people.

    He is unfit for office and his plans make no sense.

    Then protest the electoral college. The system's stupid anyways.

    Yep, all of this, although if you impeach Trump at this point you need to impeach Pence too.

    So you are ok with all his misogyny, racist comments, and how he treats people with disabilities?

    What he says is unacceptable!

    He said, "and I grab women by their ***** because I can." - it's on youtube.

    I'm sorry but I have morals and principles.

    In my opinion these comments disqualify him from office.


    As a woman applying for an IT role (a male dominated field) you will run into the "glass ceiling" in your lifetime. Once you get out in the real world you will find that even though you are qualified you won't get certain jobs because you are a woman. Just speaking from real life experience here.

    I am voting for people like you. In the corporate world, the best people for the job don't get the role. In many companies it's a man's world.

    Sorry, not overlooking the laundry list of hateful things he has said over the last 6 months..

    Dismissing what he said, how he said it, and his racially biased rhetoric is foolish.


    I've already written to my Senators and Elizabeth Warren. The Electorial College needs to be removed and replaced.

    - I'm not justifying what Hillary said. It's wrong.....but watch tape on his campaign rallies the guy is a racist SOB.

    Produce those numbers.

    For the record, it really is a meritocracy. The only sexism in the world nowadays is the sexism that pushes for more women as C.E.O.s by kicking men out, but doesn't push for more women as Garbage workers or construction.

    There are more men as C.E.O.s because men on average work harder hours longer across pretty much every field. Fact. There are also more male construction workers and garbage men because men are willing to work longer and harder hours.

    If women want to get ahead we live in a country where a woman can literally run for office and nearly win the presidency. You cannot say that we live in a country that hates women when popular vote was won by a large number of people who voted because she was a woman.

    In fact, by telling a woman she will not be able to succeed in a man's world, you're actively dissing that woman. Women can do whatever the hell they want in this world. They can make their own choices. They just choose their own ways, which is perfectly fine.

    Women having less opportunity in the corporate world is common knowledge.
