We'll see.  I don't know why you say it's unlikely.

Because I think it is.  :P  I'm learning to trust my gut feelings.  They are right more often than not.  Call me intuitive or call me a dumbass.  If I'm wrong, I'll fess up.

so say tomorrow Trump says see what i did ..i proved a point and than steps down..what happens? lol

If that were to happen he'd wait until after he officially became President.  But, that is something that I'd say is highly unlikely.

you know this could be very well reality for some lost souls and providing this phone number might save few,
consider how emotional this thing was for so many months -- some people could loose it

I think you are engaging in wishful thinking.  Bloom's comments may have been over the top (I didn't hear what he actually said) but I think civil libertarians have a lot to fear in a Trump Presidency.  He seems to be a bigly authoritarian.

Ok so I never post in Politics but can't resist joining in on the fun during this wild nite.  I remember hearing alot over the last 8 years that "Elections have consequences".  Will the people who said that accept it with such grace this time around?

I'd call you patriots. ;)

Are you saying Hillary Clinton supporters aren't patriots?

He comes across as authoritarian in some respects but I think a lot of that is just a front that he puts on.  You've got to be tough when you are negotiating.

Damn you Zeebo. I was just looking for a clip of that quote.

Yes, this is the case for every voter.

No.  There you go putting words in my mouth.  I think her fervent supporters are deluded patriots but that is all.

False argument.  There is no reason these things can't be scaled up to large countries as well.

Pffffft... Have you been to Swizerland or Scandinavia? Where do they hide their slums?
Face the facts we have fundamental societal problems that a President can not solve.

Again, I'd say that is wishful thinking.  Being an authoritarian has little to do with negotiating on trade or in foreign policy.

The AP just called PA for Trump

=Schlyder=

Pennsylvania is official

What does that have to do with having universal health care or not?

Hey Zeebo! See the post above about the suicide prevention line.  It seems that some may accept it honourably as a samurai might accept defeat (though Seppuku seems a little painful.)

Trump only needs 6 more points now, so any other state will get him over the 270 mark.
Wisconsin (10 points) has the most votes counted of those left at 96% and Trump leads there at 3%+


pate

British Newspaper of Record has PA going Trump, is that official UN or what?

We disagree but that's ok.  I can live with that.

Almost there. Let's do this.
