What do 3 Republicans, a Democrat and a lesbian have in common in Wisconsin?
Low information voters.
Liberal death wish: 8.2 million Obama voters repulsed by Hillary stay home and Democrats lose everything
Republicans could have run Incitatus and won.
My wife just told me a friend of ours never heard of Wikileaks and voted for Hillary
Well, he does work in Chicago.
I think I'm going to need therapy for many years to cope with this devastating development.
Democrats blame their own Bernie Sanders left for not showing up at the polls to elect Hillary, ignore that she was a horrible candidate
It's like Rush Limbaugh blaming 4 million phantom conservatives for not showing up to elect Romney, who bested McCain by a million votes, when the Democrats can point to 4.6 to 8.2 million actual Obama voters who abandoned Hillary.
When it comes to the establishment in the two political parties not getting it, the Democrats do it better as usual.
From "Seething liberals vow revolution in Democratic Party" at The Hill:
In an election determined by enthusiasm, some blame Bernie Sanders supporters for either not showing up or for suppressing turnout by refusing to rally behind Clinton at an earlier date.
“The Sanders people should be mad at themselves,” said one well-connected Democratic strategist. “If they had come out to vote, Donald Trump wouldn’t be president. If they were trying to prove a point, all they’ve done is further damage everything they claim to be fighting for. It’s somewhat typical of that crowd.” ...
“Progressives showed up,” [Jacob] Limon said, noting that the election in Texas was closer than it has been in 20 years. The problem, he said, was Clinton’s trustworthiness.

Communist supporters of the Trotskyist Socialist Alternative Party are NOT MY COUNTRYMEN
Of course they hate Trump. They hate America and everyone who loves it.

Back-out California (LaLaLand) from the election totals and Trump wins by 2 million votes
Clinton: 61.15 million total minus 5.86 million in CA = 55.29 million votes
Trump: 60.48 million total minus 3.15 million in CA = 57.33 million votes
Trump wins by 2.04 million votes everywhere else (America)
Hillary's horrible candidacy aside, Republicans should be worrying about stagnating popular vote totals
Bush 2004: 62 million
McCain 2008: 60 million
Romney 2012: 60. 9 million
Trump 2016: 60.5 million
Republican average: 60.85
Democrat average: 63.88 (John Kerry and Hillary Clinton 60.1; Barack Obama 2x 67.7)
Republicans are just one more articulate, bright, clean, nice-looking minority person away from another slaughter.
Ya think? WaPo: "It's possible that Clinton supporters did not show up on Election Day"
The latest tally shows Hillary not getting 8.361 million votes in 2016 which Obama got in 2008. No matter what Trump's coalition was in 2016, its size shows little variation from 2008 and 2012. There was no sea change of support for his candidacy.
The answer for Clinton's loss is in the disarray among Democrats because their candidate was so horrible, which is why the media have portrayed Trump that way. It's liberal projection syndrome all over again. Hillary Clinton was the worst candidate for president in at least a generation. "More sooty baggage than a 90-car freight train" was how Camille Paglia put it 3 years ago. Democrats should have listened to her.

WaPo, recognizing that the proper comparison is with 2008, not 2012:
Absent final turnout numbers, it is still too early to assess whether these shifting vote patterns are the result of differential turnout among Clinton and Trump supporters or the result of genuine voter conversion. It’s possible that a sizable chunk of Latino Clinton supporters, in addition to white women, African Americans, and Asian Americans, did not show up on Election Day. It’s also possible that a significant portion of these voters were willing to overlook Trump’s incendiary remarks and vote for him based on other factors, like the need to shake up “politics as usual.”

As usual, the stupid party doesn't even know why it won
8.748 million Democrat voters who voted for Obama in 2008 didn't vote for Hillary in 2016.
It was a battle of the midget titans, a swordfight between fleas.
That's all.
News reports headline over and over a mere 100 protesters in downtown Grand Rapids last night whining that Trump is not their president
And on election night 148,160 said he was, 48.3% of all Kent County, Michigan voters.
Hey Ann Coulter: Republicans lost only 2 of 25 US Senate races because 4.1 million Democrats didn't turnout in 2016, 4.8 million voted for somebody else
Turnout 2008: 131.5 million
Turnout 2016: 127.4 million
Obama 2008: 69.5 million
Hillary 2016: 60.6 million
