    anybody remember that 2016 video of mainstream midea going from dismissive to increasingly upset and incredulous as Trump is winning, all set to "Hall of the Mountain King"

        The music makes that perfect. I think I could spend ~50 hours of consorted effort trying to find something better and still not find something 1/3rd as good.

        I just realised what the hidden meaning of this clip is. It only took me 4 years... OK hear me out. The song is called "In the Hall of the Mountain King" But the Mountain King is no man, The song is from Norway and the Mountain King in this Folklore is a Troll.

        The Music is about the King of the Trolls.

        Donald Trump.

        Perfection.

        Man that is pretty funny, it's astounding how goldfish-brained your average lib is that they continue to watch these same sources to try to understand how Trump won

        edit: Nate Silver and Chuck Todd have the most punchable faces in human history. I want to give them each a swirlie

      not really the point, but it's weird how 2016 television already looks dated
