    The Democrats have no one to blame for Trump's win other than themselves. Their party was outed as being rife with corruption and cronyism during the primary process, in which they shut out Bernie Sanders with any number of dirty tactics, while favoring a dishonest, disingenuous, and corrupt establishment candidate that left their base apathetic at best, disgusted and disappointed at worst. The Republicans, on the other hand, failed to put forward a mainstream candidate that had the charisma to defeat Trump in the primaries, allowing Trump to hijack their party and grab the nomination, because although he was brash and said all the wrong things at the wrong time, he came across as someone unafraid of bucking the corrupt system, unafraid of acknowledging the elephant in the room, and not bowing to the constraints of political correctness. This election is not about people liking Trump more than Clinton, it's about the people disliking Hillary and the corruption of both major political parties more than they dislike Trump.

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    Yup. When I see someone crying, I tell them to blame the DNC for meddling with the primaries.
