so many journals expressing dismay at trump winning I figured I'd weigh in. trump wasn't my first choice he was like my third I wanted sanders. but alas the DNC put that down pretty quick, I disagree with trump on many things but I do share the sentiment of the people who elected him, I hate the establishment and especially Hillary.
I'm not so much happy that trump won but happy hillary lost. in my own political camp it's an opportunity to wrest the DNC from the corprate democrats and the sjw wackos. just to be fair to the people who despise trump to the point of blind hatred if trump does something objectively stupid I'll be criticizing him right along with you. for now though I'm celebrating the end of the corporate DNC and potentially the old left reclaiming the party

You may be correct that this will force the DNC to run a less tone-deaf campaign next time, but just keep in mind that it was never realistic to hope for the country to turn into one big Phish concert in the course of one election cycle. The ironic consequence of the failure to realize that is four years (at least) of the systematic dehumanization of all types of social minorities. Which has little to do with Trump himself and more to do with the Republican congress behind him.
Despite popular opinion, 100% idealism doesn't solve worldly issues. As annoying as it is, you need a pinch or two of realism thrown in there.
It's probably because of all the lying, money laundering, murdering, and child sacrificing to Moloch.
