Manic Moran wrote: » If I were voting in an election for president, my vote would have gone into a pool to be counted against all the other votes cast for a preference for that one position. I was voting instead in a Presidential Election, a subtle but important difference. I do not elect the President, neither do other citizens who are not the 538. The states' electors vote for the President. I was basically voting in favour of a set of instructions to those electors from my state as to who they should vote for, that set of instructions to say "When you vote for president, you must vote for Candidate X". The "X" was determined by the result of the ballot which I, and other Californians, submitted, in this case, X being Clinton. Does that help?

A fascist in charge has never turned out good. People are ignoring everything he said previously and hoping he just said it to be elected. I doubt that he believed lot of hes crap before he ran for President. People forget he was a birther and said Obama was not American born before he ran for President. Hes a bully and hes unlikely to make a wise decision when faced with a real problem. I worry hes going to start a war with the wrong country and its only a matter of when not if. For example China he said the Island building in the China South Seas would not happen if he was President and he said trade deals with China need to be fixed. China will not sit back and just accept change willing.

If Trump wanted to, he could knock the Chinese economy down the shítter within a week, and the Chinese know it. I guarantee you, if Trump plays hardball with them, China will roll over for 4 years and hope someone less aggressive gets in at the next election.

Their economy is slowing but that's from a ridiculously high starting point, and the state has far more power to effectively intervene in the economy than the US, and far less compunction about doing so even when it bulldozes human rights. It seems like a fight Trump would have an appetite for though, whether he'll be allowed is another thing.
