1. Take over the Democratic Party and return it to the people. They have failed us miserably.
2. Fire all pundits, predictors, pollsters and anyone else in the media who had a narrative they wouldn't let go of and refused to listen to or acknowledge what was really going on. Those same bloviators will now tell us we must "heal the divide" and “come together.” They will pull more hooey like that out of their ass in the days to come. Turn them off.
3. Any Democratic member of Congress who didn’t wake up this morning ready to fight, resist and obstruct in the way Republicans did against President Obama every day for eight full years must step out of the way and let those of us who know the score lead the way in stopping the meanness and the madness that's about to begin.
4. Everyone must stop saying they are “stunned” and “shocked.” What you mean to say is that you were in a bubble and weren’t paying attention to your fellow Americans and their despair. YEARS of being neglected by both parties, the anger and the need for revenge against the system only grew. Along came a TV star they liked whose plan was to destroy both parties and tell them all “You're fired!” Trump’s victory is no surprise. He was never a joke. Treating him as one only strengthened him. He is both a creature and a creation of the media and the media will never own that.
5. You must say this sentence to everyone you meet today: “HILLARY CLINTON WON THE POPULAR VOTE!” The MAJORITY of our fellow Americans preferred Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump. Period. Fact. If you woke up this morning thinking you live in an effed-up country, you don’t. The majority of your fellow Americans wanted Hillary, not Trump. The only reason he’s president is because of an arcane, insane 18th-century idea called the Electoral College. Until we change that, we’ll continue to have presidents we didn’t elect and didn’t want. You live in a country where a majority of its citizens have said they believe there’s climate change, they believe women should be paid the same as men, they want a debt-free college education, they don’t want us invading countries, they want a raise in the minimum wage and they want a single-payer true universal health care system. None of that has changed. We live in a country where the majority agree with the “liberal” position. We just lack the liberal leadership to make that happen (see: #1 above). Let's try to get this all done by noon today. -- Michael Moore
I could not help but notice and then get tickled the way you quote Michael Moore. You do know he the same guy who made Farenheit 911? The documentary that has 'conspiracy theories' by the truck loads about Bin Laden when he (Michael Moore) was waging his political war against President George Bush. Maybe he makes sense but I have to ask, what was your stand on conspiracy theorists again? Or is it a case of your conspiracy theorist is better than someone else's conspiracy theorist? lol.

The Republican Majority Leader has jumped ship. Ameshoka
Now sit back and wait for another video.
Paul Ryan has now gone kneeling before Trump seeking for forgiveness. He made a grievous mistake. Its too late to play nice. Choices have consequences. http://time.com/4564832/...-donald-trump-election/

My post was not stating a position (I am not a democrat so I cannot do any of the above). I was limited by functionality as i was doing it from a small screen (phone). On Conspiracy theoriest ... they have the right amount of intelligence required to be duped. Read my Note: They then congregate and feed off each other and create self fulfilling prophesies.

231,556,622 eligible voters
46.9% didn't vote 25.6% voted Clinton 25.5% voted Trump
Almost 50% of eligible voters not voting is very deep electoral apathy. It also means DT as electoral winner doesn't enjoy wide national mandate/ public confidence, has to work even harder to push policies thru a very skeptical public. And keeping him safe will be an onerous task - Secret Service will be very very busy next 4 years protecting him.
Our 2013 elections turnout was 86%, highest in Kenya's history, meaning 14% or 2.1m pple (sometimes I think they are the clever ones) just didn't give a shiet who we chose as prezo, and while we queued in the cold and blistering sun they were just yawning at home and imbibing beer as the rest determined their fate - or did they by not voting determine our fate? Means our apathy has been high >15% over the years - why?
Wow! 46% is very high. They could have easily put an independent candidate in the white house if they did not like the 2 from the traditional parties. I think ths election shows that it's time for a 3rd party as Trump became a Republic presidential contender almost by mistake. He was ready to go independent if he did not make it. BBI will solve it :)

CNN is feeding violence to the losers and anarchists. Protesters target Trump buildings in massive street ralliesFrom that headline you can think they are joyfully reporting on Arab spring or some third world country political chaos. At least its their own country they are burning! The deplorables are much dignified, maybe they are waiting for the law to start painful actions.
