Default Re: Trump

It was a totally unexpected blowout. The media didn't want to believe it could happen (there is an excellent column in today's Washington Post about their blind spot) and the pollsters and pundits missed it completely. I heard that even Trump's own team polled that they were ahead In Wisconsin and didn't believe it. The totals aren't too hard to find - the popular vote came up in a Google search.

As one of the Deplorables, now is not the time for gloating, recriminations and payback. There is a lot of work to do. Half the country is unhappy. And half feels that their voices were heard.
