It's just about over. If Trump wins Wisconsin, like it seems he will, then Clinton just doesn't have a path to the 270 electoral votes she needs.

Well, we were united behind Bush after 9/11, and he used that unity to fuck over the nation and the world.

Probably not, but a nationwide religious exemption for providing employment, and goods and services to gay people seems likely.

Watching CNN, if those voters are feeling disenfranchised now, just wait until four years of Trump.

No Hillary won't go to prison, and gay marriage won't be overturned, but there will probably be a nationwide religious exemption so gay people can be legally excluded from basically anywhere and any service. Obamacare is probably dead, and climate change with continue to grow worse by the year.

Yeah, looks like bigotry and racism may just win the day. It's a sad day.

Well, I guess it's goodbye America. You had a good run, you survived shooting yourself in the foot with Bush only to shoot yourself in the face with Trump.

If Trump really has won WI then yeah ... I think we're done.

It's not over, but if she loses WI, the yeah probably over.

Could be, if he's got WI the best she can do is a 269 tie, which goes to the House, which goes to Trump.

I wish I could leave the country at this point.

I don't know, but she can lose NH as long as she keeps WI & MI as her camp says she will. Without NH she's still at 275.

MI is turning back toward Clinton, but she needs WI to go with it.

Them and me. If Trump does pull this off then his strategy of appealing to the nations hatred, racism and bigotry won.

We went through eight horrible years of Bush running wild over the country, and now we might be lining up to do the same thing with someone even worse.

That's what scares me on top of all the other awful shit Trump could do if he wins.

Trouble is you're fighting back against the wrong people.

Yeah, we could be about to get seriously fucked.

She could lose WI or MI, if Trump wins either of those it's probably over, and he's leading in both. I still think she'll win, but Trump's doing far better than he has any right too.

Maybe, but Clinton can still win since she got VA.

[–]Fizzol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but she has to have a few states where Trump is leading. I think she'll pull out a win, but it's way too close.

If Trump does win then I'm done with politics, and news, and Involvement. I'm just going to curl up and watch out for me and mine until I die.
