Did anyone else hear that black guy on CNN refer to what was happening as "whitelash"? I literally choked on my coffee.

They should just be honest and say they are angry that out of the Black people that voted, so many didn't vote for their gal.
I have so much trouble with people talking about what Black people think, what they believe, or how they act.
They act like Black people are Borgs and are all victims of a hive mind.
Black people have a larger amount of melanin in their skin, giving them a darker complexion than some others, it doesn't mean they cyberly connected by nano bots.

ignorant cnn fools.
Do they think no one was watching what hillary was doing?
Stealing the nomination from bernie. Emails and everything else.
People wanted to vote in trump because they are tired of the same old people doing the same old things when in office.
Let's hope he doesn't mess up.
Morning After To-Do List:
1. Take over the Democratic Party and return it to the people. They have failed us miserably.
2. Fire all pundits, predictors, pollsters and anyone else in the media who had a narrative they wouldn't let go of and refused to listen to or acknowledge what was really going on. Those same bloviators will now tell us we must "heal the divide" and "come together." They will pull more hooey like that out of their ass in the days to come. Turn them off.
3. Any Democratic member of Congress who didn't wake up this morning ready to fight, resist and obstruct in the way Republicans did against President Obama every day for eight full years must step out of the way and let those of us who know the score lead the way in stopping the meanness and the madness that's about to begin.
4. Everyone must stop saying they are "stunned" and "shocked". What you mean to say is that you were in a bubble and weren't paying attention to your fellow Americans and their despair. YEARS of being neglected by both parties, the anger and the need for revenge against the system only grew. Along came a TV star they liked whose plan was to destroy both parties and tell them all "You're fired!" Trump's victory is no surprise. He was never a joke. Treating him as one only strengthened him. He is both a creature and a creation of the media and the media will never own that.
5. You must say this sentence to everyone you meet today: "HILLARY CLINTON WON THE POPULAR VOTE!" The MAJORITY of our fellow Americans preferred Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump. Period. Fact. If you woke up this morning thinking you live in an effed-up country, you don't. The majority of your fellow Americans wanted Hillary, not Trump. The only reason he's president is because of an arcane, insane 18th-century idea called the Electoral College. Until we change that, we'll continue to have presidents we didn't elect and didn't want. You live in a country where a majority of its citizens have said they believe there's climate change, they believe women should be paid the same as men, they want a debt-free college education, they don't want us invading countries, they want a raise in the minimum wage and they want a single-payer true universal health care system. None of that has changed. We live in a country where the majority agree with the "liberal" position. We just lack the liberal leadership to make that happen (see: #1 above).
Let's try to get this all done by noon today. -- Michael Moore

The guilty ALWAYS rush around looking for someone else to blame...especially the lying cowardly guilty.
They know full well, they ought to be looking internally for at least being somewhat to blame...but of course, that would be much too difficult, as it would mean being honest.

The were clearly NOT paying attention. If they were they would have had Bernie Sanders as the Democratic party's candidate.
And he would have won in a flocking landslide.
But they were not paying attention. And they got what everyone who doesn't pay attention gets...
Run over in the street (or the voting booths in this case).
We PAY ATTENTION. And most importantly - we VOTE!
Ignore us at your peril.
