I never thought he would actually be as horrible as he claims. I wouldn't be surprised if he starts backtracking now and you are right, his supporters will be VERY. The problem with this election is not 4 years with him, it's that it revealed a side of people we thought got rid of in the dark ages.

Why have ITV wheeled out Jerry Springer for his opinion on this?
He was actually a Mayor before resigning because of a scandal involving a prostitute.
I'm pretty shocked and disappointed that Hillary didn't talk to her crowd. Its pretty unprecedented.
No pedo or rape jokes either please.
Yeah he gave that corner of the room a prolonged stare of death too. Seems he wants to shed the far right just as fast as he wants to win the middle. There might be more Regan in him than I thought.
Cubans count as Latinos and they mostly vote Republican. Obama opening dialogue with Cuba would have further driven that vote to R's.
Makes sense the Cuban American vote is probably why Florida's was so high.
Sounds like the pilot episode of his show.
Trump seems to have trolled Hillary by playing "You can't always get what you want".
No its not just about income, its about the fact that the left didn't appeal to a large group of people. Their views and issues didn't matter or (even worse were labelled as stupid and idiotic). Same happened here with Brexit, if you do that then you allow room for someone like Trump/Farage to exploit and take advantage.
I still don't understand why countries/politicians just can't have a sensible debate about immigration for instance, its just silly.
Latinos never turned out. Black vote never happened. A closet Trump vote.
Ah right. Basically it shows the age breakdown. Clinton wins 18-29 and 30-34 year olds, Trump wins all older groups. 18-29 year old group show the clearest win for any candidate among the age groups, 55%/37% in Clintons favour. Those younger two age groups also contain the highest number of other/3rd party candidates voters, who apparently also lean more towards Clinton than Trump.
Not really comparable to be honest.
I figure he'll be a moderate. He's from fecking New York.
Wow, didn't know that, excuse my ignorance.
Well, this has been fun but it's after 3am.
Good night, all.
Good night, all.
Anyone else weirdly looking forward to seeing Trump pardon a turkey?
I thought the choice of that song was strange.So is Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reily.
Agree with you on that
I tend to agree. Right wing conservatives will quickly find themselves frustrated by his moderate improvisations.
The simpsons warned us 16 years ago to be honest. Can only blame ourselves to let that future happen.
BBC woman seems a bit triggered now.
That I don't see as a surprise. But it should be broken down further. For instance young people who were not in college mainly voted Trump.
I went to sleep. He did win in the end. A winner. Feck this shit.
He had the same song after his convention speech too. Rolling Stones did complain if I recall correctly.
Sorry one genuine question
Since GOP with president senate house control meaning whatever laws they pass will be much easier now?
Is there any check and balance?

The only real silver lining is that instead of them bitching, anything bad that happens now is solely on them.
At least we now know where Lebanon has been all this time
Even though the Congress and President will be Republican, there is no guarantee they will always agree on policy. And that's not to mention the Democrats who will surely consolidate to push back on certain Trump policies.
I am not leftie. I think the entire idea of political parties lands itself to corruption and binary thinking by definition. I just despise corrupted double faced racists more than double faced overly sensitive liberals. One is disgusting, the other is merely irritating.
Thanks
But don't you think it's dangerous for a single party control so much power?
All bribery and mis usage of power will not be check?
That was her problem as a candidate. She never gave a damn about people once their usefulness expired.
Break it down all you like. The figures will still show the younger generation were largely against Trump.
You won't necessarily have every Republican voting on every issue put forward, it's obviously more ideal to have a Hose and Senate majority, but it's no guarantee you'll be able to pass just anything.
The affordable health care act will be straight out the window however.
But once a party start whipping exercise, the senate have to follow isn't it?
