Trump wins election

[StormRichards]

Clinton has already called earlier to congratulate Trump on the victory. My guess then is a concession speech.

Yes, Trump mentioned in his speech that he heard from her.

But she sent her party home without addressing them. Sent her campaign manager out with a "too close to call" message

[StormRichards]

You call that progress, others call that regress (or 50% of Americans). So lets replace all you said with Jesus and we are good to go!

Amen!

And therein lies the problem.

she is scheduled to speak at 9:30 this morning.

Its now been pushed back to 10:30am EST. She didnt have the guts to show her face to the people who supported her last night...they waited hours and hours...whats a couple more hours at this point?

You're going to see a much more toned down Trump at this point. He won the game...there is no more competition, he is the last person standing. He doesnt have to make it about himself anymore. My guess is after he does take the presidency you wont see nearly as much coverage of him. It will be pretty much business as usual.

They are talking on CBS right now about how many of her supporters left angry last night because she didn't come out and say anything.

Conveniently this has been moved to the "everything else" category. I was nice enough to start a new thread in the general discussion highlighting several threads that also need moved.

Hillary is going to giving speech soon. Its probably broadcast everywhere but heres a link through yahoo.

Yeah I just saw him on msnbc.com. I dont think Ryan will get the boot but I bet he wishes he was more on team trump from the get go...as do most of the people who tried to save themselves in the event of a hillary win.

I don't think Ryan is getting the boot either.

Kaine is speaking now. Threw a dig at Trump during his praise of Hillary.

[rennigade]

Now that her exit speech is over can someone go fetch a pair of handcuffs. They would like nice around those wrists.

[StormRichards]

I am curious what others thought of that speech

[rennigade]

Like everything else it seemed very scripted considering they had all night to write it up. She just doesnt come across as a sincere person...shes cold blooded. (not that trump is anymore sympathetic...I can only go by the stories her secret service have leaked...not pretty)

Trump's speech gave me hope that he may turn a page. Hilary's speech tells me she is likely done with politics.

It will be interesting to see what happens with a majority held by Republicans in the White House, Senate, and House of Representatives. And as LivingAlmostLarge mentioned what will happen with the US Supreme Court nominations.
