I was one of those 49% who didn't vote. But that's mainly because I moved and forgot to register and missed the deadline. That's my bad and I realize that. Which begs the question, it is 2016...how can we not register and vote online?! C'mon man!
There was enough talk of a rigged election with live in person voting. Can you imagine if it went to an online format? Maybe someday we can virtually vote, but it's one of those inherent standards I don't see changing.
I agree, most citizens would only agree with a live person going through the hardship of standing in line to vote. Also, being registered and getting a absentee ballot which very easy to acquire then making a choice and dropping it in the mail. However, the online process has too many potential liabilities such as hacking (if Russia can hack us so easliy.....), possibility of multiple votes being etc etc. I myself am not comfortable with that process too easily manipulated.

That's true that there is the potential for hacking and had a good rebuttal for that. but then I thought more about it and well, you're right. Too risky at this state and time
Hillary wins: "Trump supporters will take to the streets and start a revolution!" Trump wins: "whoa whoa whoa, what's with all these protesters?"
First of all, I do not think there would be any protest from the right. More fear mongering from the left. I don't recall any issues (protests, violence) from the racist fringe when Obama won two terms.
The left screamed about peaceful transition to power but they must have been worried about themselves with all of the rioting.

not more fear mongering. real interviews with real 3 dimensional people saying they were organizing it as they stood there.

Well, the only thing we know for sure is that the left was rioting. If you hate something, don't you do it too.

I didn't see any rioting. The footage I saw was all peaceful protests, but I have read some people talking about burning flags and looting and all that shit, which I don't agree with, no matter the cause.

That's probably pretty accurate. Liberals protest and riot, conservatives seek silent vengeance that isn't as noticeable.
Protesting generally is done by those losing human rights or lacking them, so that eliminates Trump's majority of voters.

they were scared to death by the, yes, I'll use the phrase of the day, FEAR MONGERING by the right that HRC was going to steal their precious guns. that seems more important to a lot of americans than basic human rights, but I digress.
Eh. This is always the truth. 7 years ago the Dems were chastising the Reps b/c they were using a Filibuster to block stuff when Obama had the legislature. Now, they will be reversing roles. So, why should we be any different? It's the beauty of our system. Just like (unfortunately) Cher and Katy Perry aren't moving to Canada, we'll all be fine (and remember 8 years ago when Reps were saying the same about Obama). The Framers were geniuses. You'll have your chance in 2 years. And if you can't get your act together (as usually happens in the first mid-terms), you'll have a chance in 4 years. We survived Jimmy Carter.
And if it makes you feel any better - if you think stuff like Planned Parenthood is going to get defunded (not going to happen) - remember in 2 years there's not only the full House up for reelection but a third of the Senate. And with a 1 or 2 seat majority, if a few of those dozen or so Republican Senators have to go home in 2 years and try winning re-election after defunding Planned Parenthood, they're not going to be safe. So, remember - power is fleeting. Be kind to your neighbor.
Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.
why do we still have political parties? why do we still separate people into groups?

On the bright side, it will be a good little while before you hear much of that specific kind of fear mongering. Am I right! High Five!!!
my buddy at Yale said the university is offering special grief counseling for the student body and the students are requesting extra time to prepare for exams in light of the election results and all the stress it is now causing them. roflmao In case you were not aware, it is almost impossible for any student at Yale to receive a grade below a B. The professor must have anything undr a B approved by his faculty supervisor and not before offering the student extra credit in order to justify bumping said grade.

I do think it is interesting how these celebs that were adamant about leaving the country if Trump won are backing and saying "Judy kidding, it was a joke". Al Sharpton and Amy Schumer among those that I wish would have followed through.
^^^ It completely backfired on those celebs. They used the election to stay in the headlines as long as Trump was in them w/ a secure notion that Hillary would win. Now they have a tough choice. Accept Trump or leave murica.

I'm still waiting for more examples of the supposed chaos that has Trump supporters fearful for their lives.
It's all good though, Trump's here to save us from the bad hombres.
