In a night only too
reminiscent of Brexit I saw Democrat hopes flicker and gradually fade as the
results came in, recorded in red or blue on my home made election map of the
USA that had each state’s size adjusted to reflect their electoral college
votes (cloned from a similar one in the “i” newspaper); while Florida and
Pennsylvania remained uncalled there was still a hope for Clinton but she’d
need both, and at 5am when Florida went Republican red by 1% (Pennsylvania would soon follow
by the same narrow margin) the game was up and I could go to bed in the
knowledge that no nightmare could beat this.
