13. You don't find the "last hope" stuff a little melodramatic?

I'm pretty sure the people who actually run the country behind the scenes will keep little adolf sniffler from running us completely into the ground or starting a nuclear war.

Will big money continue to fuck over the ever shrinking middle class? More misadventure in the middle east taking loves senselessly? Ignoring global warming?

Safe to say yes on all of that, sadly, but all of that would have continued, but on a vastly smaller scale, under a dem president.

Hillary would have been 1000% bettwr than trump, but america will still be standing when this bozo leaves office...
