The presidential election is essentially over now. Both the Democrats and Republicans are now shifting their resources to Senate and House of Representative elections, which are both heavily shifting away from the Republicans. Many people are predicting that Trump's downfall could put the Republicans out of business for the next decade.

The parties' private polls over the weekend showed devastation for the GOP. They have lost.

The senate is gone. They have to firewall the House. If it's Clinton +10, they lose the house. That's why Trump only talked to the base last night. He has to somehow stay above 40%. Any more tapes and he falls to 35%, an astoundingly low number.

14 points. Wow.

Outlier? Or predictive?

And new polls will reflect the legions of women coming out and telling of the ASSUALTS and deprivation at the hands of Trump.

How many in the last day? 5? 8? 10?

How did the GOP candidates not bring Trumps record to the light of day? Political malpractice.

All those molestation and getting away with it because of money power and lawyers.

Pitiful.

His reward will be when he arrives at the Pearly Gates.

Abusing all those women with impunity. Disgusting. Every woman knows men like him, and most of us have suffered for it. Not a one of us want a man like that to be rewarded with our vote.

Trumpy announced his 100 day plan.

#1 - Sue the women that he assaulted.

Well, there ya go.

I thought his first act was jailing the political opposition. Who knew?

What a lying pos.

Tuesday after next --- a.permanent brand gets imprinted upon that wig covered forehead:

A capital Lisa.

Can't wait.

The drinking game that night is a shot every time you hear "rigged".

I'll be snockered. Looking forward to it.

The 12th woman to publicly tell us of Trump assaulting er has stepped forward. A collective yawn. I hope you don't have daughters.

Amazing outcome.

Deplorable, but amazing.

I remember all the posts on The Almanac's Town Square website mocking the Republican candidates and citing poll after poll. "Who can possibly beat Hillary Clinton?"

Well, we found out, didn't we?

Smugness and condescension are rarely attractive attributes.

"Smugness and condescension are rarely attractive attributes."

Pot, meet kettle. Whole lotta posts saying essentially the same over and over. Who's the smug one? Yes. Quite attractive. Meanwhile, we have an admitted sex offender. By all means, keep gloating. Nothing to see here. After all, pogo thinks it may not turn out too badly, or so he has posted.

Your "pot, meet kettle" comment was a giveaway, obvious to even the most casual observer.

If you think I'm excited about Mr. Trump's victory, you haven't been paying attention.

Happy new year.

Smug to the end. Only one candidate had the shot to beat him, and only 100k votes in 3 states allowed the self-admitted sex offender to win. No republican or third party could beat him.

Yet pogo couldn't vote for a woman. Here come the excuses - its CA, our vote doesn't matter, blah blah blah. Lets see how that works out in our happy new year(s).

I couldn't vote for a woman? You're really pathetic.

I didn't vote for Trump or Clinton so I'm clearly racist AND sexist.

Troll somewhere else...

So then here's the good news:

Everyone is going to look at the presidency with back-turning disrestpectiveness, and pay no attention to a petty and self-engrandizing repulblican congress.

So perhaps over the next four years we'll devolve to a true federation of individual states, where we live as Californians and don't care two cents what Washington does. Where we look after our own and stop tweeting about the fly-over states,

A cabinet full of billionaires with plans to enrich themselves while screwing the working class and retired. Swamp drained!
