I Have Good News and Bad News

I have some good news and bad news. The good news is that Clinton was not elected president. The bad news is that Trump was. 

You would have to add me to the list of those wrong about Trump. I just did not think that the "powers that be" would let Trump be elected. Apparently they lost control of the memes due to having no control over new media. I did expect a tie, however if the election had played out as I thought Clinton would have won. I did not predict a win for Trump in Pennsylvania. Michigan and Wisconsin? Don't even think about it. I sure didn't. 

Camille Paglia, a Sanders supporter, said this about Trump before the election:

Primary voters nationwide are clearly responding to Trump’s brand of classic can-do American moxie. There has been a sense of weary paralysis in our increasingly Byzantine and monstrously wasteful government bureaucracies.  Putting a bottom-line businessman with executive experience into the White House has probably been long overdue.  If Mitt Romney had boldly talked business more (and chosen a woman VP), he would have won the last election.  Although the rampant Hitler and Mussolini analogies to Trump are wildly exaggerated–he has no organized fascist brigades at his beck and call—there is reason for worry about his impatient authoritarian tendencies.  We have had more than enough of Obama’s constitutionally questionable executive orders.  It remains to be seen whether Trump’s mastery of a hyper-personalized art of the deal will work in the sluggish, murky, incestuously intertwined power realms of Washington.

Here is a montage of Trump skeptics.
