A professor at Yale made his midterm exam optional, saying “I am getting many heartfelt notes from students who are in shock over the election returns” and who “fear, rightly or wrongly for their families” and are “requesting that the exam be postponed.”

So Trump is going after the families of Ivy League snow flakes? Is he going to deport them too?

The above is precisely why this country is in major trouble. Not Trump. But the children who have been raised before Trump was ever a twinkle in the electorate's eye.

Don't these Ivy-Leaguers preach that "losing builds character"?

No one knows for sure what Trump will do.
Everyone knows what Hillary would have done.

The safe places are probably full. I am not sure what a safe place is, but I envision a bomb shelter. Wonder what is going on at Emory in Atlanta. That's where they needed counseling after the phantom chalker put "Trump 2016" all over the campus.

It remains to be seen what path Trump takes. Everyone talks a good game before they take that seat in the Oval Office.
Obama had no other experience other than politics as usual. Why would anybody have expected anything different?

Trump, love him or hate him, has always been a goal-oriented doer. You might question his goals but it is highly unlikely that he will change his personality and become a politics as usual president.

That would be a great place for Trump to start! With a stroke of a pen undo BO's damage.

She would have gotten a double-barrel shotgun and unloaded one barrel into the 1st amendment and the other into the 2nd.

And speaking of which...has anyone ever wondered why all these talking heads, celebs, etc. keep threatening to move to Canada? I haven't heard or read about so much as one of them wanting to spend quality time with our mighty fine neighbors to the south. Instead...they want to move up to mostly white Canada? Does anyone detect a little racism here?

And she has way too many arrogant supports that inspired us to go forth and not give up. I suffer from depression, and had been locked in my apartment for 3 days up untl the election day, and kept finding things that kept me from getting out to vote. But I had to gut it out, think about Hillary, Obama, the MSM Media and their juandiced rhetoric, and I finally got up out of the chair, into the shower, and over to vote that afternoon. Sadly, beteen all the bad stuff coming out about Hillary, and all these people sobbing that her losing the election is the most awful thing, had me feeling that it was an incredibly important thing indeed.
