I really do feel sorry for Hillary. I mean to have lost to someone like Trump, good grief. I have a feeling her and Bill are going to purposely disappear out of embarrassment.

It should have been Sanders.

she lost because she wasn't a good candidate though. that much is clear to me. the election was decided on the basis of which candidate was the most rejected

and sanders lost because his platform was too good to be true i guess


Well exactly. To have lost to Trump makes her like the worst candidate in history.

Too much baggage. I mentioned on another thread that it's a pity Elizabeth Warren didn't run.

It would be interesting to know if Hillary would have fared better were she taller. Are short people at a disadvantage? Do lots of people have more confidence in someone who's physically tall?

Some of Trump's first acts as Prez:

Have Hillary arrested on trumped up charges.

Have SNL taken off the air.

Have Alec Baldwin deported.

the end of affordable health care for the working class, for certain once he kills PPACA and EMTALA.

I blame faux news, and also the texas schoolbook commission [the largest purchaser of schoolbooks] that orders censorship of school books, stripping them of any real history, and by default the other 49 states use those censored schoolbooks. we as a nation have been deliberately dumbed down in this regard.

On a lighter note, here's our president (Zuma) when he borrowed Trump's hair...

It's not affordable though. The premiums are to high and the deductibles are huge according to some people I know like my aunt who has to pay for it or get a huge penalty fine. For over 20 years her health insurance was covered by her employer for free. It had a small deductible and covered like 80% of medical expenses. It got her through two surgeries and a heart problem. Now she pays hundreds for a basically worthless high deductible low coverage policy.

Have no idea. Maybe she's poor enough idk. Just seems like her and a lot of people like her are in the same boat. Obamacare is a failure. I think that had a lot to do with Trump winning.

all I know is that my premium was reduced from $475 to $35 after subsidy, but this will end at the end of this month now that this happened. :| I hope they are satisfied.
