What the fuck is with all the people shitting on the losers? They already lost basically everything, you gotta dump on them while they're down?

Stop being assholes.

You mean those losers who are throwing molotov cocktails at police, looting businesses and shutting down major roads? I don't seem to remember McCain supporters being that extreme when Obama won. At work I am getting emails from various University's we support offering 'Support Groups' and 'counselling sessions' to help people deal with this. My facebook feed is filled with people struggling to figure out how to explain this to their kids or crying about how saying 'grab them by their pussy' is now legal (was it ever illegal?)

The way HRC supporters are acting I'm having a tough time telling them apart from Trump supporters. Both sides need to settle the fuck down

Once the liberals give up, we can reunite the country and move forward. If they wish to make it hard and not accept the "loss", the "winners" should keep kicking them until they say uncle/aunt/person.
Um, no. Liberalism's secular humanity and Christianity together gave us virtually everything that is good about Western civilization, even though the two are quite often at odds. And as much as I deplore how today's progressive movement has turned on so much of classical liberalism and seeks to roll back hard-won individual rights in favor of an all-powerful authoritarian state, even progressives are sometimes the morally or practically correct force in politics.

Even the great American eagle cannot fly with only one wing.
 
And we're back...

UPDATE: Trump's proposal to bar Muslims from entering the US has been restored to his website. - Business Insider
 
So those that complained about not being heard are now going do face and silence other people with their rhetoric? That's going to look great in 2018 and 2020.

She lost. Her campaign was a failure. No questions about it (for those being honest today).


Sorry, I take it back. I figured out why it is happening. Carry on. You needed this.
lol, the people who lost many of them were pretending they won and gloating before the votes had even been cast.

These people also have not been gracious losers, so when you go to huffingtonpost and see them whining about racism. Yes, it's a joy to see them cry.

Not sure I follow...

The losers were Clinton and her buddies who now don't lead the nation (although they still have extremely wealthy & comfortable lives). The citizens of this nation are winners.

But it's the arrogant, elitist, smug, a-hole lefties who definitely deserve to be knocked down many pegs after all the insults they hurled at citizens the past year.

Quite hilarious given the christian right illustrated beyond any shadow of a doubt they'd gladly vote for some degenerate who makes a mockery of jesus. In fact it's hard to conceive of another group with looser morals. Even imprisoned convicts have a sturdier code to abide by.

Are you one of the dumber trump fans who actually believes he's going to reward you with something?

Your candidate lost, because, in my opinion, people like you decided to insult people at will with little to no basis for the insults. In response, you decide to double-down. Not a smart way to go about life.

You're certainly entitled to believe that to retain a clear conscience, though it's a mystery how "I'm capable of anything if anyone dares to be mean to me" does that for some. But it's worth mentioning opinions of people who think this way can't be very good, given you're admitting an inclination to believing anyone who'll complement you.

It's not a coincident Trump offers a lot of empty complements.

So the answer is to double down on insults and identity politics?

The answer is to learn from mistakenly believing these people are worth doing anything for, particular after it's clear they think nothing of backstabbing that jesus guy they pretend to be really fond of.

What clear conscience do you think I need? I didn't support Trump. I didn't vote for Trump. You're so fracking stupid and history has shown it's never worth responding to you. So to you I say a final "Good day and good luck".
 
News Flash: I didn't support Trump. I didn't vote for Trump. You're so fracking stupid and history has shown it's never worth responding to you. So to you I say a final "Good day and good luck".

Amusing given I never said you voted for trump. Not sure why people are ashamed of their conservatism when their comment history is archived for posterity.

Though I suppose that explains why the trump vote was underpolling.

Republicans are in shock trump won, Democrats are in shock Trump won, what are you posting about again?

I guess you are one of those people who like to keep things PC because your feelings are easily hurt.

Get this whinylittlebitch a safe space please!
 
Looking over 2008 when Obama became President... this forum was REALLY slow, tame, and not really recognizable. I appeared to be sporadically posting commentary against McCain, Bush, and deficit spending. I was looking for our raw reaction to Obama's election but man, so subdued.

2008:
I'm betting 2012 was more... partisan.
It took a few weeks but the 2008 post-election period was when Fox News hit the road for its epic open-mic rant fest of sore losers that the Reps developed into their Tea Party brand. By the inauguration, we had the "He's not my President" bitch fest going 24/7.
 
I watched YT clips from the last couple of shows of Seth Meyers, Colbert, Trevor Noah, Bill Maher, Samantha Bee, and they are all still shell shocked. Whatever sore winning there is, the losers are not taking it much better. They all spent 8 years mocking and joking about all the doom and gloom fear mongering from conservatives. Now they are doing the EXACT same thing. It is hard to watch such lack of self awareness. Or worse yet, if it is the case, shameless hypocrisy.
