People are trying to come to terms with the fact that Trump actually pulled this thing off against the odds, just like he did in the Republican primary. Some of them aren’t handling it so well.

This is an embarrassing night for America. We've let a hatemonger lead our great nation. We've let a bully set our course. I'm devastated.

I'm not kidding. You will not be safe if you spoke out or speak out against Trump. This is not America anymore if he wins.
