Honestly, just like Brexit. Like 15% implied odds for both right before
Odds yes. Polls on Brexit were (generally) correct.

Problem here is NO ONE predicted such a huge white uneducated turnout.

Weather was awful in Detroit today. Not good.

Which of the list of all stars that the republicans trotted out should've beaten him? Nobody slammed him the way Hillary did (you know, using his own disgusting words).

I know she was anointed the next Democratic candidate years ago, but people just don't like Hillary. They didn't a year ago, they didn't six months ago, and they didn't today. And now the country gets to pay for it since the dems didn't work to build a bench and give her any real competition.

Who should've run that didn't that could beat him? They don't have a bench.
I bet she still wins.

Earlier in the week Barack Obama said he cleared his schedule for Thursday or Friday to meet the winner at the White House...never in a million years did I think Trump would be the one going there..Obama must be throwing up right now

That's the problem. They should've started looking ahead to the 2016 election four years (or more) ago. Instead, the DNC chairperson was her former campaign manager who was godawful at her job.

They put out a shitty candidate and they're probably going to lose.

Agree, disagree, it doesn't really matter at this point. I voted against her in the primary and my state was called for Hillary with 0% reporting today so don't point your finger at me.

Think Hillary can still win. She can still take WI, MI, IA, CO, NH, PA. Fuck Ohio and Florida.

I'm still optimistic. Clinton has not lost a state that she expected to win yet.
