Well thought I might say hello or hi from San Fran Cisco.

What a city!!

The mood here at least is grim.

I think its mainly because the electorate are angry not so much because Trump won but because Hillary Clinton won the poplar vote by over two millon people. 

Depening on sources that number is actually growing. 

 

I fear for America under this administration, but time will tell.

Whether we like the college system or not we are stuck with it.

I am glad we have a flawed but better system here in Australia.

I am sure we understand why this happened. I have mu theories and you have yours. 

Obama was brilliant in so many ways BUT we cannot over look the fact that the Trump promises though simplistic did cover territory the Democrats hadnot evaluated more carefully. 

This will be a very difficult time but the Democats need to keep their current idealogy (clearly MOST like it) but they must not lose touch with the working classes.

Let me assure you many here loved Obama care so dont beleve all you read.

The Bible belt acually do not like Trump. They find him very distasteful BUT its clear they fely forgtten. Wages have gone backwads. Industry is dying or dead.

I liked Hillary Clinton and most clearly also liked her but the issue was the eloctoral vote and she was too establishment as they are fond of saying. 

One thing is certain this s the first time in istorythat a nominee who won the poplar vote by a landslide is not gong to be President.
