I follow Chris Sacca on twitter and pretty much every tweet he's said the past 2 weeks has been talking down about Trump. And if you didn't know, he was also an early investor in Uber. Interesting that this movement is being led by another Uber early investor.

What I find hypocritical is that everyone was giving Trump shit when he said during the debate that he wasn't sure if he would be able to accept the results of the election if he lost, and said he would let us all know at the time if it happened.

And now we have a shitload of people who were crying about his response to that question, doing exactly what they were mad about him doing - not accepting the results of the election.

I'll laugh at all the children that manage to get this on the ballot. And I'll laugh at it more when anyone that has half a brain smack it down.

And purbeast, you just now learned that the neo democrats are a bunch of whining hypocrites?

I don't follow (or care about) politics and wouldn't even be able to tell you wtf a "neo" democrat is.

Buck up and put on big boy pants.
It sucked for Texas under Obama (supposedly) and it will suck for California under Trump (supposedly).

Parts of CA are super liberal. None of the people I work with or my facebook feed can relate to what's happening. FFS even super conservative Republican Orange County went democrat this year.

It is clear to me that we live in this CA liberal bubble, and what most of us want is (evidently) not what 50.1% of the rest of the country wants.

Instead I think we should just invade Canada and Mexico. Take a clue from Russia and just start expanding the empire like the good ol' days.

They were giving him crap, because the candidate from the losing party is supposed to acquiesce to the winner. This is what Hillary did when she called Trump and then later gave her speech, but it's what Trump implied that he wasn't willing to do. The point isn't whether the people accept the results.

In other words, there isn't anything hypocritical about it.

It's been tried before and the results were not good.

Only because we didn't let them go. WTF needs South Carolina anyway? I say let California secede. They'll be the northern province of Mexico inside of two years. The limousine liberals can feel good about how inclusive they are and the illegal aliens will have a place to go. Everybody wins.

In 1860 "WTF needs South Carolina" were all the textile mills in New England that depended on the cheap cotton coming from South Carolina and the other cotton states and the shipping companies that moved that cotton from those states.

I love the part of his tweet where he says "Small states with little diversity shouldn't determine presidency"

In other words, white votes should not matter. Who cares what the white people want? Pretty blatant.

I can't believe how butthurt these people are. It's actually quite amazing.

This week I learned that California (maybe even the west coast) is not on the same page as the rest of the US.

Yup and its true, we really can't relate to any one else. Even with Trump winning all I could think of is at least I live in California.

Well... there's a bear on the flag, and they're made up of a lot of younger voters who are heavily invested emotionally to a losing side...
