    OK, I think I'm done here.

    This is completely pointless; arguing facts with a cadre of Trump Cultists and Wikileaks evangelicals is waste of time.

    Trump will be president, his cabinet picks are frankly terrifying and you guys probably still be bleating on about the Clintons when Iran tweets that Trump's hands are too small to push the button and the nukes start to fly.

    Don't give up, you have excellent points to make, just don't engage with the cultists, as you call them. TBH, they remind me of those Hasbara trolls. By controlling the debate and putting posters off who want to discuss a Trump presidency, they're wearing everyone down and no-one is discussing the spectre of a Trump presidency! Which was what this thread was about!

    Wikileaks have shown themselves to be unethical, particularly in the last 12 months. Their Turkish and Saudi leaks only served to endanger individuals. And Assange is dodgy to say the least.

    Well Assange is in the Ecuadorian Embassy. Effectively under house arrest. He is on a one man mission to inform the masses.

    I have no idea what any of this has to do with my post. I do always like further investment in maths but the us top institutions are top tier and purging them won't help them and would just rid them of some of their best.
    Huh? American college campuses are full of lunatics, violent psychopaths, communists and jihadists. And that's just the professors. Their system could do with a serious clean-out.

    Do have evidence for full of (aka I want more than a couple)? I have worked with some, gone to conferences and talked with many and don't see it. Frequently odd individuals but tending under the harmless bracket. I mean I am pretty sure there are some questionable individuals in most jobs but there are some seriously strong maths departments in the states doing good work. To suggest otherwise is digging your head in the sand.

    I like how communists make your list. I may not agree with them but surely they are allowed their political opinion. I mean some professors (well probably, I didn't actually check that) even supported Trump but hey they are allowed their political opinion.

    It's not about changing the results. This is a part of the democratic process, whether or not you think it should be.

    No-one expected the results to change, and if you think they did...well, ridicule may be the best option there too.

    No matter how many times you repeat it it is not common practice to demand a recount when you're a few hundred thousand votes behind.

    Stein took people for a ride and the fact that you're defending her while calling Trump a conman is hilarious.

    Six Million Stein.

    Did you just say that you know that you're wrong or that you have some unknown facts that make Trump a good choice for President, but haven't told anyone?

    The known facts about Trump are that he's a liar, a fraud and a failure. Have I won?

    Imagine joking about Iran and a notorious narcissist when people were convinced that Killary would literally start world war three. Literally convinced.

    It's cringeworthy to read pathetic comments like this.

    He won the US presidential election in style and you're typing out spiteful comments about him on a forum. Time to evaluate your definition of success.

    Apparently Trump has 'won' despite losing the popular vote by the widest margin in US electoral history (2.8 million votes behind). What a f*cked up system they use to elect a leader over there.

    So what you are saying is that I am right:P. It isn't pedantic. The poster wanted to rant at academia because the poster wanted to. I pointed out they were wrong (or in the case of a hyperbole didn't have a point).

    I will be sure to use the pedant line the next time someone complains about a post saying the Trump side is full of deplorables though:D.

    And the world as a whole will be a far safer place than it would've been under Bill Clinton's psychopathic wife.

    When Russia decides to poke about a bit more in Ukraine because they know Trump won't stand behind NATO, it won't be a safer place there.

    Russia wouldn't be poking around Ukraine in the first place if the US (and their lapdogs in Europe) hadn't orchestrated a coup and attempted to turn it into a puppet NATO state.

    It's weird how many people have suddenly decided Russia is the bee's knees and the spider's ankles since he took the Crimea. Not sure if it's weirder or not the (admittedly very few, just noisy) people that think it's -obvious- that Russia is -of course- innocent and the big bad CIA is obviously lying with little beyond hope that that is the case.

    What coup are you talking about? Talks have been going on for years between the Ukraine and the EU. The EU wants it in as a more secure border against Russia. This is Not Surprising. But the EU has significantly failed to invade her borders and lop off the leadership to take over. Russia has actually annexed part of Ukraine. And it's the EU that are at fault? It is, in fact, the EU's fault that they provoked Russia into invading Ukraine? When does Russia actually get some responsibility for her own actions here? If it comes to that, when does Trump? The exact same argument is being used for how Trump got elected "It's all the Democrats fault!" No, it's the fault of the idiots that voted for him. Have some goddam self-respect and stop blaming others for your choices!

    There's something very unsettling about this whole topsy-turvy world where people claim random **** and insist that their version of history is correct against...any valid source.

    I'm almost afraid to ask, but you do have proof of this right ? Because so far that is nothing but conspiracy nonsense.

    Hint: That Obama video where he supposedly says they orchestrated it isn't actually true.

    Also: educate yourself about NATO. Nobody is forced to join it, no matter how much Russia and it's puppets keep spreading that myth.
    And if countries next to Russia do wish to do so then that is entirely down to Russia's aggressive stance and a history of violence aimed at it's neighbours. I mean, if any country close to Russia would want to join NATO to protect itself from Russia then Ukraine would be one of the top candidates, given their history during the Soviet Union.

    This is a great read.

    Maybe the Trump fans need to 'get over it' and accept that for many other people their favourite is a fraud, who is filling his cabinet with a far worse type of elite than his predecessors ever did.

    It's very disturbing to still see support for this man and his administration, it's clearly obvious that 'everything is different, but nothing has changed'. There's very little difference between both parties, the republicans are just a more extreme version of the democrates. This man is pathological liar and a conman, and is very likely to cause great damage to America and indeed the world. It's very disturbing to see his administration come to be and to see many individuals actually believe his bull****

    Don't be so silly. He gave her a crushing defeat. Deduct all the illegals who voted and he would have battered her.

    Rick Perry has a job in the new administration. Interesting, given the friction between himself and Trump in the past.
