SergeantMatt Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 And already the democratic establishment is trying to blame everybody but themselves. It's not the third parties fault, it's not Bernie's fault, this is squarely on the shoulders of Hillary Clinton and the DNC. They picked a status quo establishment politican to fight a populist in a time of economic turmoil, when has that ever worked? But they didn't learn from 2000 or 2004, so I don't expect them to learn now. Belesarius, T___A, SuperComrade and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donward Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 I just got back from a friend's election night party. Sadly I wasn't able to go to the Washington State GOP party in Bellevue and pick a fight with a #NEVERTRUMPer. Drunk and happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donward Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 So just imagine the crow Hillary and Bubba Clinton have to eat when they go hat in hand to the White House, asking Obama for a pardon. The Clintons and Obama loathe each other. Office pool on when Barack Obama issues a blanket pardon to the Clinton or whether he'll leave them for the special prosecutor?

Khand-e Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 Cersei Lannister has lost elections to the White Walker You know, I never wanted to post in this thread, but, I nerded out over this and must respond that I don't think the comparison is apt. The White Walkers don't seem to want political power, nobody really knows what exactly they want other then to murder the shit out of everything and have an army of corpse slaves (and abducting babies), he also wasn't born by placing a dagger of enchanted dragonglass in his heart last I checked, but that's open to speculation. Trump is more like a dumber version of Walder Frey when you think about it. Hilary is sort of like Cersei, in the sense she sucks at keeping any of her dirty work a secret, but she's more like Yara Greyjoy who's also a cunt really (like pretty much all the Greyjoys), and it shows when just when she thinks she's queen of the Iron Islands, she loses at the last moment to the king's returning uncle. Also, as anyone who watched the Season 6 season finale saw, Unlike Hilary, Cersei actually does become Queen of the Iron throne near the end of the season 6 finale episode, Though she clearly never had hackers working against her.

Donward Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 Apparently the Mexican Peso has taken a hit and has dropped in value. As my little brother WeaselSnout pointed out to me, this means it will cost the Mexicans all that much more to build the Wall.

ApplesauceBandit Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 Google is telling me Hillary isn't conceding tonight. Apparently the Mexican Peso has taken a hit and has dropped in value. I'm stingy with my upvotes and am tired from staying up to follow this and accidentally upvoted instead of quoting you. Enjoy The Peso had an obvious reaction during the 3rd debate as well. I am kinda sad that I won't have this election to follow for entertainment anymore, but I'll be able to ease myself off with the reactions people are having at least.

SergeantMatt Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 Hillary = a hybrid of Cersei and Olenna Tyrell, Trump = Euron Greyjoy what with the "Make America/The Iron Islands Great Again, Once We Were Conquerors/We Don't Win Anymore, etc. Bernie is Stannis, long career but hated by the political establishment for not playing the game, has a smallish but fanatically loyal following, wants to let the wildlings through the Wall, worships the Red God.
