Look at this. You can't have dreamed this could end up any better.
Trump managed to crack open the Republican party and in floods best and
brightest of the East Coast socially liberal Republicans who have been
voter repressed on the Eastern Seaboard for decades.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The American political establishment reeled on Wednesday as leaders in
both parties began coming to grips with four years of President Donald
J. Trump in the White House, a once-unimaginable scenario that has now
plunged the United States and its allies and adversaries into a period
of deep uncertainty about the policies and impact of his administration.
Democrats, who will be out of power in both the White House and Congress
for the first time since 2006, were particularly crestfallen that
Hillary Clinton had a slender lead in the popular vote but lost in the
Electoral College, a fate similar to Al Gore’s in 2000.
On campuses nationwide, students marched against Mr. Trump with signs
bearing slogans like “Not my president,” and protesters in Oakland,
Calif., smashed windows and set fire to garbage bins. On Wednesday
night, thousands of people protested in several cities, including
Chicago, Philadelphia, Seattle and New York, where demonstrators
converged in Midtown Manhattan in front of Trump Tower, the home of the
president-elect.
With millions of other voters euphoric at the election of a true
political outsider as president, the clear divide over Mr. Trump
inspired pleas of unity from his two biggest opponents, President Obama
and Mrs. Clinton. At separate news conferences, they urged Americans to
come together for the sake of the republic, and for the good of Mr.
Trump’s presidency.
Foreign leaders who have had tense relations with Mr. Obama were
particularly welcoming to Mr. Trump. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
of Israel called Mr. Trump “a true friend” of Israel, while President
Vladimir V. Putin of Russia said he hoped to have a “constructive
dialogue” with him. Mr. Trump and Mr. Putin had previously exchanged
warm words, to the consternation of both Democratic and Republican
leaders, but Trump advisers said on Wednesday that the two leaders had
not spoken by phone yet.
Among the candidates for cabinet secretaries and advisers are members of
Mr. Trump’s inner circle, aides said, including Senator Jeff Sessions of
Alabama, a crucial adviser on policy issues; Steven Mnuchin, a
businessman who was Mr. Trump’s national finance chairman; Rudolph W.
Giuliani, a former mayor of New York; Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey;
and Newt Gingrich, a former speaker of the House.
BINGO
They need to bring in John McCain and remake the party. If they break
up the monopoly of the Urban Democratic machine... even better.
