The platform that you built to limit the flow of information to the population and as a way to make advertising revenue for yourself and Hillary backfired on you.
That's why Trump relied exclusively on vapid celebratory endorsements and bread & circuses concerts to lure in stupid voters who didn't know any better.
Just look at all those late night comedians who were bought & paid for to support Trump and trash Hillary! It's outrageous!
If you had actually read the real article that was the source of this story you would have seen that Russia... contacted the Clinton campaign too. Dumbass.
I'm reminded of the naked hypocrisy when Reagan was running back in the day. Back then it was considered imperative (by leftists like you) that the President put the interests of the Soviet Union ahead of the U.S. because otherwise you were some type of war-monger.
Flash forward and the new left-wing chant is that Trump is evil because he refuses to unilaterally nuke Russia.
But it's only "evil" when Trump is involved in something.
Oh, and dealing with other countries diplomatically instead of militarily is now equivalent to Nazism or something all of the sudden. Which is why everybody thought Obama was a Nazi when he was elected... right?
If Slashdot has taught me anything in the past 48 hours, it's that anything and everything about Trump is worse than Hitler.
Mega mergers between cable companies that Trump doesn't like? Obviously this means mega-corps are our new friends and opposing them means you hate women and minorities.
I mean, everything else bad that has ever happened is now being blamed on Trump even though some other guy that nobody cares about is supposedly the president right now.
Hell, the so-called "editors" have had to put on about 6 addenda to the original Trump victory story to make damn sure that we all know that perennial d-bag Paul Krugman wet his pants when Trump won.
Well, after the slashdot 'editors' failed in their sacred duty to ensure that Hillary was elected, they had two choices: Sepuku or carry on the torch.
They took the second option and have decided to make damn well sure that Trump's election is the equivalent of the End Times.
Incidentally, I fully expect to see some sort of editorial about the fact that Trump is also required to do exactly what Obama would have done in a third term because being elected president as a Republican means you are legally required to act like a Democrat. Interestingly enough, the same principle does not apply in the reverse direction.
She was SUPPOSED to win in a runaway landslide. Against Donald Trump... you know, the guy who has been mocked and demonized by the media for over a year? The guy who was supposed to be a joke of a candidate?
Even with the corpses of three endangered white rhinos dumped onto her side of the scale she LOST.
Well let's be real here. When it comes to rich leftists, they have no problems with the Mexicans when it comes to cheap black-market labor where they don't have to pay FICA and a "living wage" for the help. Being liberal means they have a plenary indulgence that absolves them of racism.
Blah blah blah. Clinton -- with all the same information that your favorite pal George W. Bush had -- voted for the Iraq war. The fact that she later decided that war was bad when it was politically convenient to do so and was never questioned once by the toadies in the press about here hypocrisy doesn't change the facts.
As secretary of state she personally instigated the disastrous destabilization of multiple secular governments in the middle east to appease the jihadi Muslim Brotherhood.
There was one proven war monger on that stage, and it wasn't Turmp.
Please consolidate all the comments about how sexist/racist/xenophobic America is because they didn't coronate Hillary under this comment for organizational purposes. Please provide reasons for why a bunch of people who were "good" when they voted for Obama deserve to be shipped off to your concentration camps today for failing to do as they were told.
Also, you can post your real estate listings here since you ARE actually going to man up (ooh wait.. too cisgendered a term there) and move to Canada right?
Interesting microcosm of why Hillary ACTUALLY lost that can't be boiled down to a prejudiced throw-away "ism" hurled at groups of people you don't like: Tonight she flat out refused to go out and face her own supporters at her lavish "victory" party. Not even to thank them for their hard work. No class whatsoever where it actually counts.
When the fact is pointed out that the criminal rate among illegals is less than the general population
If Trump is wrong then you are just as wrong. There is zero evidence that illegal aliens commit crime at a lower rate than regular citizens. Zero.
There's some evidence that because illegal aliens are much harder to track that the crimes they commit are underreported and they are not properly prosecuted for their crimes. That's undeniable.
Scantron is fine since it combines a simple, reliable, non-networked and relatively hard to hack scanner at each polling location with easy to read paper ballots as a backup in case of mischief. That combines the basically instantaneous and accurate results of a machine with the
The receipt of who you voted for is a disastrously bad idea though. First of all, there's no way that receipt could ever be used in a recount for obvious chain-of-custody reasons so it doesn't reduce fraud at all. Second of all, it makes it so that a black voter in Philly better show that he voted for Hillary or else -- or that a white voter in rural Alabama better show he voted for Trump or else. Nobody (ok, nobody with any integrity) wants that.
How is that a bullshit defense? I've heard the self-appointed security experts scream about how bad "monocultures" are for security, and Comey basically just said that there isn't a monoculture in the voting systems. That should be a good thing.
So.... there's been a relatively minor decrease in arctic sea ice over about 40 years since the late 1970's, a time when the exact same people screaming about Global Warming were claiming we were all going to die due to a new ice age?
Yes, I did see that the scale on that graph was intentionally changed to make the decrease look "scarier" than it actually is. I also noted that it started at a time of unusually high ice concentration to provide a false benchmark of what supposedly "normal" or not.
I'm not sufficiently terrified. Please go doctor up some more numbers.
Looks like the FBI has disclosed that not only was Clinton's email server almost certainly hacked, but the hacking got so blatant that even Clinton's own part-time staff who did the incompetent setup of a Microsoft Exchange server were able to figure out that something was going on and shut it down temporarily while she was still using it.
Unless they don't come the conclusion that we want them to, then it's OK to just ignore what they say.
I'm sure that literally every poster who thinks this is wonderful would have also been OK with an elite ruling counsel deciding to overturn.. oh I dunno... Obama's election to be president. Or maybe Obamacare.
Fascinating how your butthurt over Brexit somehow makes you the only person qualified to comment on an election in a completely different country than the U.K.
Did you miss that part of elementary school where they taught you that the U.S. is an independent country?
This plan of spying on voters and recording their life history is an excellent thing as long as it benefits a candidate with a (D) next to her name. It just shows that the Democrats are pro-science higher beings of pure energy that descended from a higher plane of existence for us to worship.
If Trump had done that he'd be worse than Hitler (again).
Slashdot Mirror
Commit Sepuku in your hoodie Zuckerberg.
The platform that you built to limit the flow of information to the population and as a way to make advertising revenue for yourself and Hillary backfired on you.
Incidentally, Trump's expenditures per vote were about half of Hillary's.
http://www.cnbc.com/2016/11/09...
That's a story that Slashdot doesn't want to cover since they still want to paint this as Trump "buying" the election.
Totally.

Just look at what China did with Clinton:

Well, unlike Trump she has been in power in one form or another since the '90s.
Additionally, I'm pretty sure that Obama's cereal got soggy sometime this week... Bush's fault.

I mean, as I type this the Dow has lost literally -72.49 points!
Which is to say that it's up 72.49 points because a negative loss is a gain.
OMG APOCALYPSE!
Why is it sexist when anybody votes for Trump but voting for Hillary for the purposes of having a non-functional set of gonads being president is OK?
She was SUPPOSED to win in a runaway landslide.
Against Donald Trump... you know, the guy who has been mocked and demonized by the media for over a year? The guy who was supposed to be a joke of a candidate?

But live there? No.
You said:
1. All of Trump's campaign promises violate the constitution. (wrong).
2. But he won't do any of them anyway.
So according to you, Trump will actually follow the constitution. Looks like that puts him ahead of the current administration.
Blah blah blah. Clinton -- with all the same information that your favorite pal George W. Bush had -- voted for the Iraq war.

How dare you deny the GLORY of Global Warming as foretold by the holy prophets of Hockey Stick!
Global Warming means that heat is not necessary and this story is obvious heresy by the denialist infidels!
