Geez, David, I can understand your complete lack of celebration over the Trump victory, having been screwed by Pataki with his AWB when I voted for him over Cuomo, and he won. Still, it's much better than Hillary, isn't it?
In celebration, I propose this song:

That we may be screwed over in the future, is no excuse for not celebrating now. At worst, we might be said to have achieved the lesser of two evils. I can go with that for the present.

Oh, and while we're celebrating our victory over tyranny, we might take a look at this. I would hope that Trump invites Putin to the White House to watch this now 40-year old critique of the Soviet Union, seeing as Putin was head of the KGB. Something for which he might now express some regret, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, a personal hero of mine, and all.

Holds up extremely well, even after 40 years.
