This is over.
While I find it very strange that Trump won after everyone poll in the world gave Clinton a huge lead, I do not believe a recount would change anything. At the same time we cannot be second guessing the results of an election just because we do not like the end result. The only reason we should be having a recount is if there is a big enough reason to believe there was big mistake or some type of fraud - and that is not the case here.
That's fine. The next four years will be fun to watch.
And after the four years are over, let's compare metrics. Let's see how unemployment does after Trump. The last Republican president started with a great economy and a 4.9% unemployment rate, and eight years later the unemployment had doubled. Under Obama the unemployment was cut in half. I am a firm believe in the employment rate being an important indicator of the economy, so you had better believe I'll be here complaining if unemployment goes up.
