What rights do you really think women and minorities are going to lose?

This wasn't really about women's rights, it was about Hillary Clinton's "right" to be president. And the wealthiest and most powerful people in the country trying to jam her down America's throat. That's what the backlash was against. Not women or minorities.

As far as you blowing off her corruption in such a glib way, that just shows how bad things have gotten.

Finally, there are people sitting in federal prison for careless mishandling of classified communications. This woman brazenly ignored all protocol and then told the FBI to go fuck itself rather than turning over the materials. Not only was she not behind bars, she was thisclose to being president. There was more outrage over Clinton's belief and the establishment's confirmation that she was above the law than there was over Trump's constant lies and pussy talk.

I don't think any of those groups are going to lose any rights though.

Trump has already walked back most of those dumb ideas and I'd be shocked if he ever mentions any of it again.

Wasn't most of (if not all of) his campaign just shock and awe to get the meters moving and people talking about him? I don't think that even Trump believes everything he said over the past few months.

Yup, even his speech last night was subdued and reasonable.. is almost like he played the idiot media for over a year... Or at least the media is now finally the last to realize this

He'll likely appoint more than 1 Supreme Court justice. That's going to be a large shift which could have a long-lasting affect on our country.

It's possible. Hell, he might get to appoint four. But I'd guess some of the more liberal judges might hang on for the four years whereas they may have retired had Clinton been elected.

For what it is worth many on both sides could live with the judge list he put out a while back. My big concern was more what HRC would do to court.

I'd say it's likely and any sense of balance will go by the way side. One party rule will lead to many changes which have simmered on the back burner for a while.

Fwiw, that 1st statement is bs. The 2nd is predictable.

I don't believe we actually have one party rule though. Many of the Congressional Republicans don't see Trump as one of them. Although, their own fears and desire to be re-elected might cause them to fall in line.

The dude has a history of denying rights to minorities. Why is it out of the realm to think he won't try it as President. Didn't he run on a law and order platform?

The system of checks and balances hasn't always served this country all that well. I don't have faith in cowardly political types right about now.

Well, technically, the people have spoken out against Trump.

Clinton still leading the popular vote....

In 2016 America said it's okay to be openly racist, a xenophobe and a bigot IF you promise me shit that I should know you can't deliver. This was a repudiation of decency.

It sure will be fun to watch the gloating and celebrating by those who claim to have not voted for Trump.

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful, but now I'm on my way

That's just wrong. The same country voted for Barack Obama twice. And I truly believe if he had been able to run again, he'd have beaten both of these candidates. I don't think that makes us "post-racial" or suggests that racism doesn't exist, but it shows that people are voting for candidates. Or in this case, against a candidate.

There is no doubt they felt like they were under attack. Donald Trump tapped into that. I didn't say most of these people were racist and I don't believe they are.

Yep. This board definitely doesn't have its hands on the pulse of the country if you factor in the number of non Trump supporters existent upon it.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

I'm not racist and I voted for Trump because I was sick of being blamed by the media and academics for everything wrong with the country. Just had enough.

I always feel bad for campaign workers on the losing side. You become a part of the campaign as much as the candidate.
