So Hillary made the phone call - but couldn't even address her very supporters that came out for her?

We all deal with loss in our own way. There isn't a script for that shit.

True colors. They are no longer of any use to her therefore discarded. same would have happened had she won.

Ok, I can agree with that, its something NO ONE can prepare for. BUT...

Considering I'm no historian, what presidential candidates prior to this have completely avoided their own people? I find it tacky, but maybe it's normal, I dunno.

I dunno what the norm protocol is.

I think the norm is for the opponents to touch base after things are over. And for the candidates to address their supporters, and the nation.

Press conference. You concede and thank your supporters. Not sure what the big deal is but has been a tradition.

The liberals were only useful sheep and she has never cared for anyone outside of her immediate family.

It didn't surprise me at all that she couldn't be bothered to speak to the unwashed masses. She's quite privileged, you know.

She eventually did, but not until a case of tissues was used up, and a quart of
smelling salts to awaken those that fainted.

I was at work, but heard that she gave a decent concession speech. Anyone that saw it? OTOH, heard Obama's was a bit self centered.

A bit is just being polite! 75% of it was all about him from what I watched.

As I said, I missed that. Was hoping to catch some after work, unfortunately I just got back from Dr after 3 hours. I like where I live, but the wait for some services are worse than the DMV at home in Chicago area.

I'm going to scrounge around for the texts later, right now trying to chill.

In case anyone really cares. I heard, or read somewhere yesterday, as to why Comey, and Lynch didn't bring any charges against Hillary before the election.

Just a thought, but...At the direction of Obama. Lynch, and Comey didn't ask for a Grand Jury, or get an Indictment against Hillary because...If they had. Obama, or Hillary could have pardoned her. No Indictment...NOTHING TO PARDON HER FOR???

Wrong.......the president can pardon for crimes which may have been committed. Google Ford pardon of Nixon.

And it will happen i assume.

Your comprehension is suffering Dufus. I said "Just a thought!" Making stuff up to impress yourself is as Lame as Hillary asking you for help with a BJ.

Gore started to give concession speech but backed out. Kerry ran out on his as well if I remember correctly. Seems to be a democratic proclivity.

On the one hand political gold for Republicans and on the other hand trump set the stage for it by promising to put a political opponent in jail.

Understandable given the circumstances.

Because I believe he was speaking of a criminal - not looking to put an opponent in jail. Once he would be in office, she WOULDN'T be an opponent, so saying he would place a criminal in jail IS more accurate.

Outside of political shenanigans that lead to no charges...

Are you saying that her actions with her email server, and confidential emails, didn't lead to violations of the law? Many that LIVE with those things disagree with you.

Either way, don't care, she's done for good and her supporters can deal with it. Trump is in and those that never liked him can deal with it. Those are some facts too.

The fact does remain (despite all the great philosophical discussion) that Mr. Trump is the president elect of this nation. It will be interesting to see how it all shakes out over the next 4 years.
