does anybody know how to find the list of all the votes? cuz I know mickey mouse gets a bunch every year, and how many did deez nutz get? this is what really matters
MVX___I wouldn't be surprised if he gets assassinated
The VP isn't a good choice.
But honestly, I'm just watching and waiting to see what happens next. I hope everyone feeling down tonight can step back a little bit and just look forward to making the best of this situation.
You don't have a fucking clue how fucking ridiculously fucking stupid you idiots look to the rest of the world. You bunch of disgusting redneck hicks don't deserve better anyways.
Markets are down six fucking percent! See how much your precious anti liberal bullshit gets you when your economy is in the fucking shitter and you can't get a job.
Markets are down because markets are volatile. Doesn't mean end of the world. Glad I cashed out half my Roth investments a few months ago---time to get fucking rich now!
Not happy about the Trump... but god damn, do I love to watch liberals cry....
The presidential race is not the end of the world. The end of the world is a Republican HOUSE, Republican SENATE and Republican PRESIDENT. God help us, although all this shows that god is sick of our shit and is ready for us to just end it

Short term fluctuations are due to uncertainty. They'll rebound eventually. That being said, because he's a populist without a set platform, this uncertainty could come in surges.
The real question, like Brexit, is what will the long-term reprocussions be of his proposed economic plans?
It it doesn't look good since he can do whatever he wants given he controls every branch.

I mean from what he's said America is fucked. The Wall? LOL, and protectionist policy? Okay, enjoy paying 30% extra for your TV you scrub.

America you fucked it big time
He is an unstable populist, there is nothing more to it. He is unpredictable in the worst ways. As soon as his ego gets involved, who knows what he will do.
The country could have handled that IF the GOP didn't control all arms of the government but they do.
Protectionist policies are going to fuck his voting base harder than they know. Those % increases will hurt some of the 1% because they will consume less, but they can still afford the goods and services. That 99%? They will feel the burn. They think Obamacare prices suck? Just wait until EVERYTHING is more expensive while wages stagnate and employment falters.
Our country is in for a turbulent ride and that is undeniable.
sampsihoyosFUCK! Global markets are down, Australia, Japan, Europe, all down more than 6% you fucking idiots. A trillions dollars vanished in 45 minutes.

But we can't judge it off 1 day . We need to watch capital flows. If capital flows out and doesn't return, then interest rates rise...let's just say a recession is likely, and a depression may follow.

yea but on the other hand if protectionism leads to increased production unemployment will go down and local shops/businesses will flourish. the question will be how much more you'd need to pay for these goods while also maintaining reasonable salary.
but internationally the us economy will become less important to the world. other markets will profit alot in the next years.

It won't. Our unemployment levels are rather low as it stands (despite what some of the far-right may say). Automation will fill the jobs that Trump has promised which means a tiny net-gain in employment anyways, but not wages. The issue is not employment but wage levels. Wage levels will not rise so long as bottom line remains important.
Protectionism is NEVER good in this day and age. It will hurt the little man, the blue-collared worker that Trump rode to victory. If we want to slap a tariff on imports, what is to say other countries will not do the same to us?
Couple this trade war with capital outflows and rising interest rates, you have a recession and a strong potential for depression.

The market when down 5% the day after Obama was elected. Just so you know. It's not a single indicator of much.
I love how everyone thinks that Hillary would have been a saint in comparison to Trump. Shut the fuck up, both suck and nothing great will or would have come out in either situation.
But honestly, I'm just watching and waiting to see what happens next. I hope everyone feeling down tonight can step back a little bit and just look forward to making the best of this situation.
I was really hoping trump would pick someone reasonable for a VP, but I guess that would raise his chances for assassination.
What are people so scared of? I'm not a fan of Trump either but im at least open minded about it, I hope he does a good job, and from his past experience I think he's more than capable of doing a good job.
Seriously, can someone please give me some things people are scared of him doing and why?
so far i've just heard liberal college kids freaking out making ridiculous claims about all the racist, sexist, homophobic, etc. things he's going to do etc. etc.
apart from the guy having no filter, i have no reason to think he's going to bring racism and sexism into his policies. Is a no filter, offensive person like him just that foreign to college kids that they take the random BS coming out of his mouth seriously? I know a lot of people like that who arent afraid to offend but are nowhere near racist or sexist like the ultra liberal would like to label them.
