There should be no doubt the anti-Trump administration protests last night were directly coordinated by DNC operatives and the various affiliated interests within the left-wing national organizations OWS, RevCom, BLM, etc.

The hundreds of various community organizing groups who have met with, and been led by, the Obama activism coalition in the past eight years were activated for a specific reason.  Everyone who has followed controversial political events over the past several years knows full well, none of this activity happens without direct White House approval.
If President Obama wanted the streets cleared, his own speech could make that happen.  He did not do so, yet.

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “2016 Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the Trump/Pence presidential victory.

This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

The short answer is yes and no. The monster vote showed up for Donald Trump, in specific regions.
However, the cocktail class republicans stayed home or voted for someone else in other regions.
When we originally (February ’16) forecast the possibility of a 73M general election vote for Donald Trump, we held the following caveat:

[…]  The question is, how many Republicans will stay home (anyone but Trump)  and how many Democrats will stay home (anyone but Clinton)?

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Van Jones says: “Donald Trump’s election was a white-lash“.  Unfortunately for Jones’ narrative Romney won 59% of the white vote. Trump won 58%, so it wasn’t a racial issue.
Feminist Democrat Leaders/Politicians blame gender bias against Hillary Clinton for Trump’s election.  Unfortunately for their narrative Obama won with 47% of women voters, Hillary Clinton only carried 43% of female voters – so it wasn’t a gender issue.
However, both groups are on the street tonight marching in protest against Donald Trump’s election.

The George Soros’ funded Black Lives Matter group (Van Jones), and the raging left-wing feminist moonbats are joined by the Bernie Sanders Occupy Wall Street (OWS) anarchists.
Go figure…

As we all begin to filter the impact of a historic Donald Trump victory, perhaps it is important to remind ourselves what should be the primary filter for perspective..

…the economics.

For the first time in many decades the chief executive of the United States will walk into office concerned about the fiscal stability of the United States.  For the first time ever, a titan of American Main Street is going to be in the oval office. Do not downplay the significance of this aspect. Money makes the world go ’round.
Every single global leader and politician is reviewing the U.S. election through their own domestic financial prisms. Enter, the land of Samsung, Kia etc:

SEOUL (Reuters) – South Korea said on Wednesday it will react firmly to severe financial market volatility if needed after Republican Donald Trump stunned the world by winning the race for U.S. president House, sending global markets plunging.

The government and central bank said they plan to boost monitoring of markets around the clock.

Through the 2016 election Bill Whittle never believed.  He, like many other patriots, had lost all hope. Here’s his take:

The risk matrix was not only upended last night, it was reversed.   Essentially, for years the DC Politboro, and by extension the Clinton/Obama families, held the Sommerset position in Boston harbor.  100 loaded cannons pointed toward shore keeping the grumbling pitchforks in their place…
However, overnight on November 8th 2016, Donald Trump, using us, quietly made his way into the phantom ship and removed every ounce of gunpowder from their armaments.
Today at dawn, as millions arrive to join the rebellion – the overlords realize they became powerless.
Secretary Hillary Clinton:

Congratulations to everyone who stood up when no-one gave us a chance. You did it, and I am proud to stand beside each and every person who joined the movement to Make America Great Again.

Forgive my indulgence as I take an opportunity to recap a very important aspect to this election that must be hammered home lest the professional political class be allowed to obfuscate the reality of the situation.
For many of us, last night was the culmination of several years worth of painstakingly difficult effort, which began long before Donald Trump announced his candidacy.
To all the fellow deplorables that joined hands and stood resolute against the furnace of overwhelming opposition, my most sincere and humble thanks to each and every one of you. This has been a movement of success against all odds, 132:1 odds to be precise.
However, before we begin the arduous process of holding our political representatives accountable for the mandate we require, there is a very important detail which must be forever etched in the bloodstream of our republic to ensure it is never forgotten.

Here’s some quick thoughts before going to a much needed power nap:
Regarding Wall Street Tremors – Remember, it was Donald Trump who personally requested the reinstatement of the Glass-Steagall Act be put into his 2016 platform.
The implication/undercurrent of that alone, is a foundational principle of President Trump.  Main Street will be put in front of Wall Street.
Don’t be surprised to see the Secret Service moved back into the U.S. Treasury Dept.
White Hats within every governmental institution now have leverage over their Black Hat supervisors.  Anticipate the stories of massive amount of corruption beginning to surface with this paradigm shift.  FBI leaks could increase exponentially. The document shredders in DC will be working overtime.
