If this election showed anything to anybody, it is that whatever negative thing you thought about the establishment that propped up Hillary- the-candidate was proved to be worse that what could have been imagined. This election was about her and her crony establishment machine and when people said they wanted change they were talking about an about face from the largesse and excess and elitism. From suppressing Bernie Sanders' candidacy to colluding with the mainstream media to play for pay while in office to taking liberties with classified information -- name it and it was worse. Dissing Latinos and the Catholic Church, and on and on. Everything was a sham brought to light.
I only started looking at the polls after Comey letter #1 was issued and things got tight and I figured that every close number in a battleground state was a Trump win. Then in the last 2 days before the election, things started drifting Clinton's way and I figured the shoo-in was going forward. I got food poisoning yesterday at lunch and got home and slept from 7:00pm to 2:00am. I woke up feeling like crap and turned on the TV figuring to see Hillary's smiling face. I saw Podesta's weasel face instead telling his silent Javitz Center audience to go home. I got a chuckle out of that.
That being said, I'm not optimistic that anything will be much different in the near future. I only hope that constitutional conservatism can make a comeback.
