I think it will be a wait and see. I hope he won't be as bad as some think
And obviously America doesn't agree which you have to accept. Having your attitude is one of the reasons there was such a significant amount of silent trump fans

He is up about 100,000 in Wisconsin and 50,000 in Michigan. Pennsylvania has been called and he will almost surely win Alaska..
It's pretty obvious who is going to win. She should have waited for one more state and given her concession. I'm not happy about a Trump presidency, but she has to accept reality like every other candidate who has given their concession speech relatively quickly after defeat. She obviously is going to use every trick in the book for legal challenges/recounts, but I just don't see any chance of her winning this now. She's gonna have to accept it eventually.
What a kind thing to say.
I almost forgot that Trump believes climate change is a hoax. 
My God.
My God.I feel sorry for Hillary as a person, it must be a type of awful that few ever experience in life. All that time and effort wasted and now you have to grovel before a man who has been denigrating you for months and who boasts about sexually assaulting women. I wouldn't wish that on anybody, absolutely mortifying.
Her campaign team and the DNC on the other hand can go feck themselves.

There is serious tension on the CNN set. Van Jones and Lewandowski are pretty tense.
My attitude that he's unfit to lead?
Ah fair enough. I'm sure you'd have been fine eitherway and if he does have issues with ahtiests then I'll be seeing more of the world whilst the US fence themselves in.
My son has just told me he isn't going through with his scholarship applications to US colleges
Give him a slap (get yourself a ladder for that!) and tell him not to be such a fanny.
The only positive about all this is that surely now it's time to reconsider this ancient 2 party system that's in place?
It is just how the system was built. Not much hope changing it.
He's donated to politicians though. He's definitely part of the same elite that Hilary 'represents'
Followed by Frankie Boyle appearing on Sesame Street.
People having the attitude that him getting in is not a joke and actually a very serious threat to the world is why some people vote for him.
It's as good as any other I suppose.
Oh lord, I keep thinking of the Supreme Court

No sympathy at all for Hillary. But I do feel really bad for Obama. For such a great guy to have what I would say is a pretty poor presidency, all things considered. A fair amount of which wasn't his fault. But this ending is such a low note for him to go out on. He deserved a better successor.
Agreed.
Even more awkward - Trump arriving at the White House to take over from Obama.
Yes, in a time when people signed documents with feathers.
Haven't you heard? racist people are saying being called racist is the reason they are racist or whatever. It's some weeeird logic we're hearing.
How is Veep going to top the real life now? Might as well just copy the whole thing as it is
In his defense, he has managed to create and lead a successful business empire, but the positives stop there. My biggest concern is his apparent lack of any moral fiber closely followed by his non existing political platform.
DNC must feel pretty fecking stupid now, seeing as they ostracized Bernie and basically rigged the primaries in favor of Hillary
On the plus side he'll be sandwiched between two unintelligible presidents which will do wonders for his historical standing.
CNN finally calls Wisconsin for Trump.
People have to at least own up to the fact they are will to vote for somebody with racist beliefs as long as he agrees with what they want for the country.
That they can except racism to get what they want.
Oh lord, I keep thinking of the Supreme Court
Roe v Wade could be overturned, Gay Marriage repealed, Voting Rights Act completely gutted. It is all on the table.
Right, this is not normal behaviour
Would she have been too tired had she won too?
John Kerry waited till the next day.
I wonder if we'll hear of how rigged the elections are now....
Well thanks America for making my girlfriend wake up the in the most shittiest, "the world is doomed", depressed mood. Can't be arsed with it today!
That's the scariest part of all this for me. Him and the Republicans having all the power will not be good for this planets healthI almost forgot that Trump believes climate change is a hoax.
Not necessarily. We've had a conservative majority on the court for decades and Roe v Wade is still here, as are the others. If the Dems play it smart, Trump will be in for one term and the remaining justices will stick around for four more years before retiring (or dying).
Its done, isn't it? Its official
Too concerned with the hot takes of liberal celebrities
That was a close race. This isn't.
Yes. Why not? Even waiting for mathematical confirmation likely would've been a matter of minutes, not hours.
Thing is there is no law that says we can only have two parties. In fact we have many political parties. Just the other ones don't get support. And what support they get people usually complain about since it "takes away from one of the major party candidates".
He'll strike down Obamacare too.
