Keeping an eye on the results. It's kind of painful, I can't shake the feeling of doom.

It's damned if you do, damned if you don't at this point. I sat there and looked at the ballot for a few minutes. Even the third party choices were abysmal. This is the third time in a row where I absolutely hated every candidate running.

Trump is going to win, I just know it.
Well, at least the Russians and Chinese are going to be happy about it. Funny that, isn't it?

On the bright side, at least Trump is less likely to get into a shooting war with the Russians, and it's kind of a blessing and a curse for people here if the US economy suffers, since we do less trade with the US, but the cost of goods coming from the US tends to drop.
On the other hand... good God, I don't really want to know where this is going to lead. I wonder how long it's going to take before he shows just how incompetent he is, and I wonder how badly that's going to turn out for the rest of us.

Frankly, I don't know who I'm pissed off at more.
The people who are dumb and angry enough to vote for this fucker.
Or the people who contributed to tarnishing Clinton and therefore creating voter apathy.

Provided nothing goes horribly wrong, provided he doesn't start a war the US can't afford to fight, then things will get better in 4 years time.

Thinking about it, he probably won't do too much damage. After all, it isn't as if he is going to have any actual po- oh wait, the House went Repub too, the Senate is basically split as well, and that means we will have to rely on the "decent" Republicans to reign the idiot in.
I cannot imagine that Trump won't massively fuck things up, at least with him being given free reign. But then again, maybe that isn't a bad thing. As my father has been saying, "people need to suffer before they change things." Its just a shame that the US will fuck it up for everyone else.

Ha. Told ya, people!
Canada will now have to build a wall on its southern border to stop illegal USA immigrants!
PS: Can, do you know how I could sneak past that wall to Canada?
PS2: So I guess Euro, after falling because of Brexit, is gaining value because Dollar is crashing. I guess for finance people, two wrongs do make a right? Or perhaps they have the attention span of a goldfish?
PS3: Should we expect lynchings, just like increased violence against immigrants occurred in the UK?
