It's worth noting you're the first to introduce this narrative to this thread.

Present.


You are in Iowa still right? It started in your backyard and no one stopped it. He humiliated and shucked and jived his way through every primary and came out on top of his party. He ran against an incredibly unpopular candidate and somehow convinced enough people that he is a lesser evil of the two.

The Republican party, the media, the Clinton campaign and Hillary Clinton herself are more at fault than anything that happened 4 years ago. In hindsight, a Romney vote may have been beneficial for the last 4 years, but may not have impacted what has now transpired. .02125

If the narrative is that he was elected by racist rural voters, it would just be an easy way to overlook what is happening.

I agree and I think the multiple causes of this will be thoroughly examined but it's bad that a guy with his on the record statements is President.


Completely agree! It's disgusting for 2016 and makes me ashamed to be an American.

What will be left of her?


Just stop. Or go tweet at JDC. It's a surprising result, but Congress is still run by politicians. Nothing will get too crazy.

The sky isn't falling, but to me, it is genuinely embarrassing and pisses me off.

He didn't win the Iowa caucus, but yeah, I'm not proud of my state tonight.

Illinois voted for Hillary. Not proud either. We collectively ended up with crap. We will be eating it for 4 years. Kiss the ring people. Kiss the ring. That smug twat is going to be unbearable.

Reality is sinking in now, though. This guy is going to represent us at the U.N. He will be giving State of the Union addresses. He will be pardoning a turkey.

To answer the original question at hand, no, I'm not ashamed of my country based on this.

I'll reserve judgement to see how we as a country go forward from this.

Trump wont be the UN ambassador. And whoever he appoints wont be worse than John Bolton. And even if his appointment is worse than Bolton who cares, the UN is seriously gay.

Donald Trump doesn't care about poor white people. Or poor black people. Or any people. He's a fucking fraud that no one took seriously and now he's going to be the goddamnn president of the United States.

Larger point: he represents us to the rest of the world.

If anything, you should be proud because it proves that our system can work. Politics isn't a foregone conclusion. That is good news.

Maybe something could happen in Illinois that is similar.

He is President Hector Camacho. He was on the receiving end of a Stone Cold Stunner. How many presidents can say that?

This Trump win is tough. All that good we were feeling last week after an incredible World Series is gone. Racist whites run this country.

It's not true, but I can't blame minorities for feeling that way.
