Oblivion? Hillary Clinton got 300,000 more votes than Obama did. The Democrats gained seats in the House and Senate.
Conservatives will get nothing out of Trump. Gay marriage won't disappear. Abortion won't be criminalized. Muslims won't be registered. The wall won't be built. Blacks won't lose their right to do business in stores and restaurants, etc.
Well mercy me - anyone can cherry pick numbers. My turn: Under President Obama, Democrats have lost 900+ state legislature seats, 12 governors, 69 House seats, 13 Senate seats.
Here it is from the NYTimes:
His presidency will end with Democrats in possession of 11 fewer Senate seats (depending on how you count), more than 60 fewer House seats, at least 14 fewer governorships and more than 900 fewer seats in state legislatures than when it began. That’s a staggering toll." http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/13/o...est&contentPlacement=1&pgtype=collection&_r=0
