PA won already. Trump has 264 votes, just 6 votes short. Any one of the following and he'll cross the line: Arizona (11 votes, 4% lead), MI (16 votes, 2%), WI (10 votes, 3%).
International congrats are already coming in for Prez-elect Trump. Clinton should just concede in good grace.
so far only 245 is confirmed. may creep up in less than an hour. clinton 218, trump 245 so far depending on news network.
My theory for the 70% election landslide in 2015 was because:
1. Majority Sinkies are buying into the never-ending credit easing economy. Alot of them are high up in the necks in debts buying properties (local and overseas), cars, etc. Only way for them to be in positive equity is for never ending asset inflation.
2. Singapore economy actually starts to feel pain in 2013 already. Knowing the inevitable coming in 2016, PAP quickly call for election in 2015. Many Sinkies who know they are in deep shit even veer more towards PAP government hoping to save their ass (more money printing, more global trade agreeements, more FTs, which will continue to feed asset inflation).
I predict that the debt bubble (both corporate and personal) in Singapore will blow up.
PA (20 votes) already called for Trump by AP and NYT, with 90% of the votes counted. It's 265 to Trump now. End of game.
foreign leaders already congratulating trump. clinton holding out on concession.
if mainstream clinton media abc, cbs, nbc, pbs, cnn haven't called, it's not legit. :p
cspan just called for trump 276 EVs.
I only trust cspan
It is finally over. Americans will be in for a rough ride, I hope not though.
You know what they say, "Be careful what you wish for..... "
Well, CNN has called WI for Trump, but still delaying its call on PA. Including PA, it's 276 votes to Trump. It's official: Trump has won.
Who will be chopping?

I feel the death of the Old British Dog was a big factor that probably pushed many swing voters who voted opposition in 2009/10 (can't rem) to vote for evil party. Look at the number of crying losers wailing in the streets as if it's their Ah gong that died. Rem ?? Sinkies are irrational which explains how majority can stomach what old dog did from the 60s to the 90s those of us who know know the truth of his unscrupulous ways. The closure of Chinese schools, nantah, the persecution of dissidents and opponents, closure of free press, stamping of labor unions, how he fixed WP, JB jeya, tang liang Hong, how mysteriously constituencies like cheong san disappeared, his evil ways knew no bounds yet the people there still largely supported him. So we know largely there's no point in ever hoping things change, the people there are stupid enough to self flagellate let them. Smart ones cut their losses and said bye bye.
not surprising that abc, cbs and nbc are still holding out on finality with 245 tally for trump.
Her campaign manager told supporters to go home, she would not address them.
The fact that AMK particularly went to evil party every elections is testament that the peasants can't get enough of dick sucking and cum drinking. Cancer balls can be easily removed from power by deseating him in AMK yet the peasants just love me some more ass poking. Let them.
word out is that clinton has privately called trump and conceded. but abc, cbs and nbc claim that is not confirmed.
Why rough ride?
America will be great again.
America will be great again.
confirmed now. clinton called trump and conceded. trump on stage with family.
Donald Trump elected president of the United States
BY JULIE PACE AND ROBERT FURLOW, ASSOCIATED PRESS November 9, 2016 at 2:34 AM EST
WASHINGTON — Donald Trump was elected America’s 45th president Tuesday, an astonishing victory for a celebrity businessman and political novice who capitalized on voters’ economic anxieties, took advantage of racial tensions and overcame a string of sexual assault allegations on his way to the White House.
His triumph over Hillary Clinton will end eight years of Democratic dominance of the White House and threatens to undo major achievements of President Barack Obama. He’s pledged to act quickly to repeal Obama’s landmark health care law, revoke the nuclear agreement with Iran and rewrite important trade deals with other countries, particularly Mexico and Canada.
The Republican blasted through Democrats’ longstanding firewall, carrying Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, states that hadn’t voted for a GOP presidential candidate since the 1980s. He needed to win nearly all of the competitive battleground states, and he did just that, claiming Florida, Ohio, North Carolina and others.
Global stock markets and U.S. stock futures plunged deeply, reflecting investor alarm over what a Trump presidency might mean for the economy and trade.
A New York real estate developer who lives in a sparking Manhattan high-rise, Trump forged a striking connection with white, working class Americans who feel left behind in a changing economy and diversifying country. He cast immigration, both from Latin America and the Middle East, as the root of the problems plaguing many Americans and taped into fears of terrorism emanating at home and abroad.
Trump will take office with Congress expected to be fully under Republican control. GOP Senate candidates fended off Democratic challengers in key states and appeared poised to maintain the majority. Republicans also maintained their grip on the House.
Senate control means Trump will have great leeway in appointing Supreme Court justices, which could mean a major change to the right that would last for decades.
Trump upended years of political convention on his way to the White House, leveling harshly personal insults on his rivals, deeming Mexican immigrants rapists and murderers, and vowing to temporarily suspend Muslim immigration to the U.S. He never released his tax returns, breaking with decades of campaign tradition, and eschewed the kind of robust data and field efforts that helped Obama win two terms in the White House, relying instead on his large, free-wheeling rallies to energize supporters. His campaign was frequently in chaos, and he cycled through three campaign managers this year.
His final campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, touted the team’s accomplishments as the final results rolled in, writing on Twitter that “rally crowds matter” and “we expanded the map.”
The mood at Clinton’s party grew bleak as the night wore out, with some supporters leaving, others crying and hugging each other. Top campaign aides stopped returning calls and texts, as Clinton and her family hunkered down in a luxury hotel watching the returns.
At 2 a.m., Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta told the crowd to head home for the night. “We’re still counting votes and every vote should count,” he said.
Trump will inherit an anxious nation, deeply divided by economic and educational opportunities, race and culture.
Exit polls underscored the fractures: Women nationwide supported Clinton by a double-digit margin, while men were significantly more likely to back Trump. More than half of white voters backed the Republican, while nearly 9 in 10 blacks and two-thirds of Hispanics voted for the Democrat.
Doug Ratliff, a 67-year-old businessman from Richlands, Virginia, said Trump’s election would be one of the happiest days of his life.
“This county has had no hope,” said Ratliff, who owns strip malls in the area badly beaten by the collapse of the coal industry.
“You have no idea what it would mean for the people if Trump won. They’ll have hope again. Things will change. I know he’s not going to be perfect. But he’s got a heart. And he gives people hope.”
Trump has pledged to usher in a series of sweeping changes to U.S. domestic and foreign policy: repealing Obama’s signature health care law, though he has been vague on what he could replace it with; building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border; and suspending immigration from country’s with terrorism ties. He’s also praised Russian President Vladimir Putin and spoken of building a better relationship with Moscow, worrying some in his own party who fear he’ll go easy on Putin’s provocations.
The Republican Party’s tortured relationship with its nominee was evident right up to the end. Former President George W. Bush and wife Laura Bush declined to back Trump, instead selecting “none of the above” when they voted for president, according to spokesman Freddy Ford.
House Speaker Paul Ryan, a reluctant Trump supporter, called the businessman earlier in the evening to congratulate him, according to a Ryan spokeswoman.
Democrats, as well as some Republicans, expected Trump’s unconventional candidacy would damage down-ballot races and even flip some reliably red states in the presidential race. But Trump held on to Republican territory, including in Georgia and Utah, where Clinton’s campaign confidently invested resources.
Clinton asked voters to keep the White House in her party’s hands for a third straight term. She cast herself as heir to President Barack Obama’s legacy and pledged to make good on his unfinished agenda, including passing immigration legislation, tightening restrictions on guns and tweaking his signature health care law.
But she struggled throughout the race with persistent questions about her honesty and trustworthiness. Those troubles flared anew late in the race, when FBI Director James Comey announced a review of new emails from her tenure at the State Department. On Sunday, just two days before Election Day, Comey said there was nothing in the material to warrant criminal charges against Clinton.
