00:00The race is over. No one had this right. It's shocking the world right now . This is a historic night . Donald Trump is going to be our president . What just happened . The sun is up. The selection was dark and torture just a roller coaster of Hell on Wheels. I think the numbers went down for the press approval it's been 20 months since the first candidate announced I'm running for president of the United States. What did we spend all that time talking about. Hillary Clinton's health was in such check after you watch that video there were questions but it went to different places. And there was new stories that Hillary Clinton had a clone a clone a clone. Infrastructure entitlements a criminal justice system in which three fourths of all released offenders are arrested again within five years . Pressroom reporters trying to cover team Clinton. We were just held back by a rope and I lost the shoe. You know how reporters were treated in the field. It became part of the story. JANA PITTMAN You don't know what it is whether it's a little bomb says who polls most of them all of them. The polls literally every single poll nationally had Hillary Clinton up. All of the polls were wrong. I feel like we talked about campaign finance reform. It just must have gotten buried under so many other things. He says he split his camp. I mean it's not like people weren't raising tons of money. Monopoly money they just may not just cut of hey just throw it out there. I think we all learned once again that money can't buy you love. And there were debates about the issues police violence immigration international trade deals nuclear proliferation health care . That is what everybody said they wanted. Oh my God. Rosa was in the spin room with Mark Cuban and Scott Baio spoke at the convention. You know Chachi lets you down with Judge he lets you down. Everybody Loves Chachi. Scott Baio one of the Baldwins and a dude from Duck Dynasty. All three of those people not people I would even want to have in my house. Why were so many random celebrities involved in this election. So how do we move on . We have seen the darkest days. There is light ahead. Four percent of you 4 percent believe this election brought out the best in people according to a recent Monmouth poll. That's not a lot but it's not nothing. We must unite the divide between the two parties but also the divide within the parties to move forward America. We must first look back at how we got here at the collapse of public discourse the rise of inequality global missteps that said the appeal of isolationism the dog whistles that eventually brought the dogs on one side a sense of inevitability that froze out healthy competition. And on the other side a sense that anyone could run for president. So everyone did. Going forward we know we don't have to chase every shiny object. We don't have to get troll by every publicity stunt. We don't have to let every fact go unchecked . Just remember at least this election is over they never have to do this again . Campaign 2020 started this morning the midterms are just two years away. You boys are late we got dude this election cycle was like getting kicked in the balls and every time you almost recovered you got kicked again and even harder. It was like a training sequence from a movie but you never get better. You're just always getting pushed in the dirt. Everything about this gave me into gesture and it was like I ate the worst meat ball of my life and it live with me for over two years .
