Have to agree with eleven on this, Trump really worked the media well. Even in Europe you could hear daily about all the very questionable tweets he send out. And the media kept falling for it. Trump actually said this himself in the 80's this is how he would win, He was a Democrat back then and he literally said: If I want to run for president, I'd become a republican because they are the ones stupid enough to vote me in. That being said the guy is not completely retarded, his speech was calm and just what the markets needed to rebound, If he had made any remark like he has the past year, the markets would have made a nose dive for sure. Before the speech European markets were down 3%, after they gained half of it back already. I'm not really happy about him either, I think the secret service will have their hands full in protecting him. I think short term he will be bad for Europe and alienate us, he will have better relations with Russia and putin though. But in the long run it might not be bad to have Europe stand more on its own.

Seems like the European markets are holding steady at the moment. We got a saying over here: The soup is not eaten as hot as it is given. If that translation makes sense :p

I think Clinton shows a lack of respect for not giving a speech. Makes her look Elitist and that lost her the election the most I think.

Britain: Brexist was the most stupid and self-destructive thing a country could do. America: Hold my beer. at least we still got our humor :D

surprised he didn't grab pence's daughter by the :p

well he got wisconsin so its pretty much over no ? So many close states, do you think she will ask for a recount in all of them ?

I think Trump will be horrible for the EU, but he will have a better relationship towards Russia.

Clinton Campaign leader sending everyone home, but not calling a loss, that is just a bit sad. Today I'd say that is good thing ;) To be honest , she should have come out and made that speech herself.

yeah but sanders had a message of hope, and I still think he got screwed over by the democratic leadership.

I think the Clinton Campaign really got it all wrong, it was a slur campaign for much to long, she didn't offer another perspective for voters doubting between her and Trump. You can add PA with 20 to , 97% counted and a 1% lead.

I'd even wait a day or two, see if Trump makes some more dumb remarks :D two days ago you should have gotten gold :p Just waiting on Aston Kutcher to pop up and say, America you got punked :p

Still don't get why he didn't run

Penyslvania going to trump as well at the moment :blink:

The democrats really overplayed their hand with backing clinton so much, Sanders clearly was the popular guy to win, and most of his young voters probably didn't vote for Clinton.

Don't know if I should laugh or cry right now. He'll alienate USA from its allies more than Bush jr ever did. Wouldn't be surprised if he blows up NATO either.

Like my colleague just told me, another crazy frak leading us :p

Democrats and Clinton really overestimated the support from Sanders voters.

oh yeah in 3 hrs european markets will go down - 10 % from start.

putting a Gorilla in the white house :p

I'm really bored at work if I'm following this :p

Florida is as good for Trump , 95% voting counted.

Seems to going Trumps way yes.

Nice to see some of our prospects doing well, we'll need them in 3 years.

pretty much yeah

Good thing we got Kane and O'Reilly on this team to show how to handle that in a responsible way :p
