We need to pivot to a hard line position of opposition. This stuff makes us look like weak simps. Accept so we can be relentless in bringing them down.

not that he wont come out of the house the winner, but the less legitimacy this asshole has, the better.

the trumpfuhrer will be installed. It's what the fat cats want, the majority of his base, which and who are racist pigs driven by fear of the person not white racist male or female and What our Congress is, as a majority in both HOUSES. And soon Supreme Court. We have four long years of fighting to just survive coming up.

I choose not to speculate.

I will wait until the votes are counted.

sadly, I think we are in for it for the next 4 years.

and hopefully we get back the house or the senate or both in 2018.
