Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Obstruct for 8 years then run on how government is broken.
Timelies all!
Oh God. I have no words.
I have warned TCG that staying silent and being nice to relatives on both sides of our family when they say things I find abhorrent is over. Hopefully people will not test me today.
I keep hearing that all the working class folks are pissed off at the "elites" for not making their lives better or not caring about them
I don't know about that. According to [link] from exit poll day data, it was college educated white women (64% of the vote for Trump) and college educated white men (72% support for Trump) who voted for Trump more than white women without degrees (45% for Trump) or white men without college degrees 54%.
And let's be clear, that analysis seems nuts to me. Is the WaPo data fucked up?
My stomach hurts and nothing makes much sense.
Basically, a whole lot of white folks fucked up. When the factories and pensions fail to come back, and social security is gone, they might have a few regrets. Bet they still find a way to blame Obama.
Man, Samantha Bee is going to be so disappointed in us.
I have no idea what to do with myself today.
Hugs to all of you. Callaluna, I am so sorry everything is so awful.
I had to cancel my training this morning because I haven't slept and can't stop crying. I unfriended anyone on FB that was pleased with the result, including my brother and my best friend locally. There is just no way I can face anyone that can be happy about this. They got what they asked for, and they are lost to me.
