We all knew that it would play out this way, and yet it's still shocking to see it happen.

Seriously, did anyone here (at least those of us who remain here ) doubt for even a second that this would ultimately be how it played out? Did any of the countless progressive organizations out there pleading with people to reject this moron doubt it?

And yet, I still have to pick my jaw off the floor every time I see the next "bombshell." That said, the fact that this could all play out in four months exceeded my wildest expectations.

We need to make sure people never forget. Hillary crossed the country countless times to tell people that Trump didn't have the temperament, knowledge, or judgment to be President. She even made it a focus of her nomination speech. Obama told us. Michelle told us. Joe Biden told us.

And 63 million people ignored them. May they never live that down.

What has transpired since January 20 was foreseeable.
