I'm so happy and relieved. I can openly laugh now. I can't believe you people (hn, sv and the tech world in general) wanted that criminal Hillary as president just because trump said a few mean things and wants to keep immigrants out. Guess what there's nothing wrong with that! PC culture and sjw could not stop the majority of the country from doing the right thing and I'm so glad.

Not so sure about the "majority" part. Clinton may win the popular vote.

You will be able to laugh every day of the next decade now, a new 2017 television show is coming to the white house, forever.

The same sentiment were made after brexit. Nothing bad happened. The markets didn't crash, society didn't collapse.

The brexit did not happen yet, but it already caused the loss of the english AAA, the pound is at a record 40year low, EU founded research is in disarray all over the country. But that's just the economic facts, the real problem is that in 200 years : http://m.imdb.com/title/tt0387808/

i am glad I wont be there to see. I just hope I wont have to see the world crumble once again as it did during the bush presidencies.

Ignore democratic accountability at your peril. The EU is an institution that has plunged the Greek working classes into poverty, imposed un-elected technocratic rule on Italy, and horribly insulted the plebs of France, Holland and Ireland after they dared to vote against its treaties. I doubt the EU will be around in its present form in ten or twenty years. That's what will be crumbling.

Learn your facts.

Brexit hasn't actually happened yet

Forget the "mean things". He's an ultraconservative, that will bring social policies in America back decades.

This is exactly what I mean. A couple of social policies are the whole world to you: I don't care where trans people go to the bathroom, that's not going to make me vote Hillary and have to live through more wars and recessions.

You can say what you want about Trump, but he's far from a social ultra-conservative.

This. The biggest realization I had during this election was that "leftist" is an identity based on inherited socio-economic status and has NOTHING to do with morals or values.

Saying dumb shit is evil and bad, but drone assassination campaigns, money from Goldman Sachs and Saudi Barbaria are okay. Not even talking about the upcoming invasion of Iran that Hillary was already planning. B-b-but white male!

I thought that the pseudo-left would've figured from Brexit that calling poor people dumb and racist to make themselves look good on facebook isn't a way to win over people's opinion.

Let's talk in a couple of years to see how many people Trump will kill.
