TRUMP: Yes, He Even Branded A MAGAthread

Postby Yumyumsuppertime » Fri Nov 11, 2016 12:54 am

As we're all well aware by now, on November 8th, 2016, Donald J. Trump was elected President of the United States of America. Since that time, we've seen elation and despair, celebration and protest, credit-taking and finger-pointing all over the world...but mostly in America, and to a nearly unprecedented degree on NSG. Therefore, to avoid confusion, we're making a Megathread for all of your Trump-related news. All of it. Cabinet picks both potential and real, protests, interviews, predictions, analysis, observations, gaffes, slights, reactions, and all other things Trump go here. I'll be closing other Trump-related threads and pointing people here with a link.

This is about as explosive a reaction as I've seen to a political contest in my life. Tensions are high.

Do not throw fuel on the fire.

This thread will be heavily patrolled.

trump makes the best megatheads

so there's zero chance the electoral college will pull a reverse 2000 on him right
ask moderation about reading serious moderation candidates TGs without telling them about it until afterwards and/or apparently refusing to confirm/deny the exact timeline of TG reading ~~~ i hope you never sent any of the recent mods or the ones that got really close anything personal!

signature edit: confirmation has been received. they will explicitly do it before and without asking. they can look at TGs basically whenever they want so please keep this in mind when nominating people for moderator or TGing good posters/anyone!

The EC just pulled a regular 2000 for Trump, so it appears (not all votes counted yet).

So, like many of the other things that Trump puts his name on, will this thread eventually fail as well?

If that happened (presumably via some kind of mind control device)... I don't know what I'd think.

I mean, first of all, Johnson didn't get anywhere near either Trump or Hillary. Hillary by ethical right should be president (she got the most votes), but Trump should be president according to the rules, but that argument "it's the rules!" doesn't stand up when the rules specifically allow faithless electors. If faithless electors did this en masse, it would also be an "it's the rules" situation.

Well there are claims that Clinton actually has more legally obligated electors than trump. With the rest being able to go faithless but i take those with massive amounts of salt.

@Gauthier Does that somehow make that any less racist? Anyhow, there are more incidences of racism by Lena Dunham, prime example being her 'White Extinction' video. But this is off-topic, we shouldn't threadjack after all. ;)
