The decision has been made. It was a resounding no. Character did not matter to ten of millions of Americans. Enough to win the presidency twice. Long after Trump, that will still be the case.

The biggest problem with Hillary is she belonged to the side that "demanded better", while Trump belonged to the side where his biggest opponents were more than willing to join him regardless of how much damage he could cause.

It's only bad when it happens to them. Otherwise, it was great. This thought process convinced countless women, minorities, Muslims, Hispanics, LGBT, and Somali immigrants to join the Trump coalition. You really can't fix this.

Why do Trumpists think "you have bad ratings" is a good argument against anything? The claim itself is often false, but even if it's true, unless the topic is the renewal of some television show, it's freaking irrelevant.
