YetAnotherSpartacus you are certainly not alone.

Nightmare.

Artandco · 09/11/2016 10:54

When can we get rid of Theresa May btw? Seeing as nobody actually voted her in at all

RedBullBlood · 09/11/2016 10:54

But we don't get to vote in Prime Ministers. We vote for a party.

The deplorables comment did it for Hillary. Can't believe she came out with it! My rich in laws in Chicago all voted D. They are all very privileged, live in huge houses even by US standards, and drive supercars. They just don't get it. I think they vote D out of guilt.

caffeineanddryshampoo · 09/11/2016 11:00

I feel ill.

WrongTrouser · 09/11/2016 11:03

The thing to be concerned about here is not what Trump will do, but what ignorant arseholes 50â„… of people are. Same with Brexit. That level of hate doesn't just go away because you change the person at the top

Shovetheholly . Are you calling all leave voters ignorant arseholes? If you are then you are calling me an ignorant arsehole and I would like to return the compliment to you.

Interesting you should raise the issue of hate whilst vilifying 50% of the voting public of two countries.

savedbythebell · 09/11/2016 11:06

Yes but the fact that the conservatives had a woman leader didn't deter people from voting them in. It proves that in general people definitely don't have a problem with the gender. Donald Trump has won because the democrats couldn't come up with a good candidate. If they're had someone honest, trustworthy and suitable for the job they'd have won, male or female.

I don't believe all Leavers voted Leave because of immigration, but very, very many did. I don't believe all Remainers are totally non-racist, politically right-on people (in fact, I personally know several who aren't) but I think the racists in that camp were probably less numerous on balance.

Similarly, in the US - Hillary was an absolutely horrible candidate, and there will have been loads of racist arseholes who voted for her. However, I think anyone who can vote for someone as overtly racist as Trump is unlikely to have a thorough, deep-seated commitment to equality.

Those who are racist on all sides yeah, I'm calling them ignorant arseholes. And I think across those two camps, they make up considerably more than 50% of the population.

Some of us are shocked by Corbyn's popularity, so it's rich him saying that abut DT.

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 09/11/2016 11:12

spartacus. I meant to say you're NOT alone. I thought Corbyn's comments were spot on and valid .

clarrylove · 09/11/2016 11:13

User....above, what utter tripe! I am a leave voter and I hate Trump. Am I whinging the US vote is unfair and should be re-run till Clinton gets in? Of course not! That's democracy.

Southallgirl · 09/11/2016 11:14

I don't understand why so many of you use the words "hate" and "loathe" about candidates you are never going to meet. I have no personal feelings about either of them, but I was hoping that Trump would win, and he did. Let's hope he can drain the swamp really deep.

Devastated doesn't come close to how I feel today.

I'm in total shock.

I really fear for our childrens future Shock Sad Confused Angry

Southallgirl · 09/11/2016 11:18

I would say that many Brexiters voted because of the thousands of racists being allowed into the UK.

WickedLazy · 09/11/2016 11:19

We must have really underestimated how hated Clinton must be. Was she in denial over the publics perception of her, or did she really think she had a majority?

I assume a lot of people voted trump, just to fuck with Hillary. (As a lot of people did with Brexit, putting a finger up at the establishment). Did 11,000 Americans seriously vote for Haranbe?

Maybe people are hoping Trump will chill now he's in, or get bored and start faffing about like Bush did.

Part of me is glad Clinton didn't get in. Will Wall Street cut her off now?

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 09/11/2016 11:19

Pinterest is my bestie today

Trump has won 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Southallgirl · 09/11/2016 11:20

BillSykes That's why Corbyn is so popular with the 20 yr olds - school-level politics is all they understand.

MrsGosling71 · 09/11/2016 11:21

CalmItKermit. I was thinking of King's Dead Zone too.

Peaceandconnection · 09/11/2016 11:26

"Let's hope he can drain the swamp really deep." What do you mean South?

septembersunshine · 09/11/2016 11:26

He is a reality tv star over there. Imagine that - a sexist, rasist, sociopath reality tv star is president. He is not a politician. And how did they end up with two poor choices? Out of all the millions of Americans those where the best two candidates they could find? It's nightmarish. The man is a child.
