Cassie....it's true that CA is a powerhouse but those other coastal states and major economic centers nationwide that contributed to Clintons popular vote are also helping defray the Trumpies...

It has been suggested that just maybe we need a huge dose of the Trumpies to appreciate collectively as a nation why they are so undesirable....that in a way we have gotten spoiled thinking that clean air, clean water,environmental concerns worldwide,  Medicare and health care for the poor, civil liberties, the needs of the poor, the immigrants et al are values that we can take for granted.....this election clearly proves how wrong that thesis is...(Obama in France recently made the point that we can't just take these issues for granted because things have gone well in the past....)

And sadly I think we, as a nation, are going to learn the very hard way....and so many here and worldwide are going to be hurt. As will the environment be terribly impacted....
