Well, Q3, we have seen HeWhoCannot amed's list of possible SCOTUS nominees, so I strongly disagree with your point. Also, with Bannon in the White House, I pretty much have to take issue with "not knowing" what HeWhoCannot amed will do. And as far as two bad candidates..... "Sorry, but No!"
4everadam, that article is wonderful and oh so sad at the time. TY for posting it!

There are people on this board who continue to "bully" those of us who don't share the opinion the Country is in trouble because HeWhoCannot amed won. I guess this is a place where you are entitled to an opinion as long as it is the opinion of the "herd". You forget half of the Nation voted, not only for HeWhoCannot amed, but the Republican Party was able to maintain the House and the Senate. Prior to the election nearly 70% of the electorate said the Country was headed in the wrong direction. People were ready for change, that's why Hillary isn't the President elect.

ceecee, the only person I see in here who is bullying is you. Other than "my opinion isn't being respected" I'm not seeing where you have any skin in this discussion. You are thrilled with the outcome, whoohoo. Other people in here are actually feeling physically threatened themselves or who know family and personal friends who are. Your compassion for us appears to be non-existent and as such your stomping your feet because you feel left out is problematic for you not us.
Now pivoting since I probably need to read this book so that I can reword everything I said in the prior paragraph. Some people are recommending the book Crucial Conversations by Kerry Patterson (use the Adamtopia Amazon referral link to look it up). It appears to be a lot of active listening, rephrasing, wins for both sides. I think that after we work through our first shock and move on to how to change the future that we might find common ground to repair and heal. Like others I've got relatives that are pretty gleeful about the outcome, I'm glad Thanksgiving is next week although it would be even better to be a week later.
edited to add Amazon and fix referral spelling

Interesting article on HeWhoCannot amed, the unpredictable one. He maybe putting Putin in a very vulnerable position, due to this unpredictability.
Interesting how the Russian intent of subverting this election is portrayed. This article is from the Foreign Policy Magazine.

Let's see if the FBI investigates this blatant violation. If it doesn't then there will more flagrant violations of the laws with no consequences.
www.politicususa.com/2016/11/15/HeWhoCannot amed-senior-white-house-adviser-steve-bannon-reported-fbi-potential-felony.html
HeWhoCannot amed appointee to be his senior White House adviser, Steve Bannon, was reported to the FBI and accused of a felony violation of campaign finance laws that occurred during Donald HeWhoCannot amed’s presidential campaign.
In a statement, The Democratic Coalition Against HeWhoCannot amed explained why they reported Bannon to the FBI:
The Democratic Coalition Against HeWhoCannot amed reported Steve Bannon to the FBI on Tuesday morning after learning that he likely broke campaign finance laws during his time as CEO for the HeWhoCannot amed campaign. According to FEC records, $950,090 was paid to Bannon’s company, Glittering Steel LLC, over the course of the campaign by pro-HeWhoCannot amed super PAC, Make America Number 1. The super PAC is mainly backed by Robert and Rebekah Mercer, and Rebekah was recently named to HeWhoCannot amed’s transition team. The most recent payment made to Glittering Steel LLC was on November 5, 2016, and a full list of the expenditures made by the PAC to Bannon’s company can be found here. Before Bannon became HeWhoCannot amed campaign CEO in August of this year, Glittering Steel LLC was reported to the FEC at Breitbart’s address in Beverly Hills, CA. Right after Bannon became CEO, however, Glittering Steel LLC was exclusively reported to the FEC at an address in Arlington, VA.
It is against campaign finance law for super PACs to directly coordinate with the campaigns they support, so Bannon’s role as both an employee of the super PAC and campaign CEO would have broken the law. Additionally, there is a 120-day “cooling off” period for employees once they leave a super PAC to join a campaign to help avoid coordination, which Bannon would have violated when he became HeWhoCannot amed’s campaign CEO just 9 days after being paid by Make America Number 1. The FBI’s public corruption unit has jurisdiction to investigate campaign finance crimes, and in 2015 a campaign worker was sentenced to 2 years in prison for his role in illegal coordination between a campaign and a Super PAC.
If the timeline above is correct, Bannon and HeWhoCannot amed’s actions were a clear violation of campaign finance laws. The problem will be getting the FBI to investigate the senior White House adviser to the President Of The United States.
It is reasonable to suspect that if HeWhoCannot amed’s administration unfolds as it is looking it might there will be many comparisons to Richard Nixon in the coming months and years. The apparent flaunting of the law by HeWhoCannot amed and Bannon will only fuel these comparisons.
Elections have consequences, and one of the consequences of 2016 is that a man like Steve Bannon is going to be working in the White House. If the FBI does investigate Bannon, it could trigger a landslide of problems for President-elect HeWhoCannot amed.

It's ok to step back if you want. Sometimes focusing on it just elevates everything into a crisis. It may well be a crisis but tomorrow will bring something else. We will work through it and our job right now is to support organizations like the Washington Post that are willing to speak up. Pick a rabbit hole to go down and relax. I watched a bit of the youtube with Adam's Idol journey last week. I may rewatch all of the xFactor this week. ((Hugs))

I don't know how credible this is, It looks it though! Based on voter suppression laws in crucial states, Greg Palast, an expert in election result analysis, has reviewed the voting data and matched to it to voting lists, and other critical parameters. Very interesting read. If this is real and used by the appropriate authorities to investigate the election fraud, HeWhoCannot amed will not be president. www.thelondoneconomic.com/uncategorised/donald-HeWhoCannot amed-was-right-the-election-was-rigged-in-his-favour/15/11/
