I remember that day. I was on tenterhooks all day long, until about 10 pm Pacific time. Then, light shone for the first time in 8 long years, into the darkness of our country.

i remember that day as well..i was sick to my stomach all day fearing for my country...and just as i have every presidential election since 2004, i was here on Free Republic following the election results- no TV was on in my office or room...then, around 1:30 in the morning EST, Freepers started posting:

“WISCONSIN!!”
“WISCONSIN!!”
“WISCONSIN!!”
“WE WON WISCONSIN!!”

i then knew it was in the bag...

I never doubted for one moment that President Trump would win the election. We sell at fairs in five different states and the outpouring of support for Trump was HUGH! BIGLY! And yeah I go and watch the election night videos for laughs and hoots as well as the snowflake collections.... I love the one where the young lass is screaming into her iphone that someone has to fix this Sh## right now!... Ha! I have had canddiates win and loose over the years and you know....for the most part Presidents really don’t change the way I live. I just get on with my life. But I REALLY enjoyed the TRUMP victory....My thought was if he spent his time eating two scoops of ice cream everyday in the oval office....we would still be better off.

There is zero apathy for those folks. Now that they go through the same horrific nightmare many Americans experienced when BO’B was elected (TWICE!!!) there is just nothing there to feel any longer....nothing but pleasure and jubilance - we won; they lost. Praise be to the LORD!

Oh me too hoagy. I started NOT to watch it at all because I kept thinking about President Trump talking in the days leading up to the election about “if I don’t win” blah, blah and I thought oh Lord he knows something we don’t. Eventually I turned it on and saw all those states and those electoral votes and PRAISE THE LORD watched until almost dawn the next day..........who coulda slept???? lol
