What you seem to be demanding for the lucid minded among us, is the civil and temperate acceptance of improprieties perpetrated by elected officials. Sort of like the way the Bushes acted when Hillary demanded we invade Iraq and then unjustly slammed W for tricking her into having done so. Some have called such Republican civility spineless.
But the Republicans tried that approach for the entirety of my lifetime and look where it got them. Dems demonized them for fools and passé relics of something they despise and reject, that being the conservative mindset. The Romney candidacy is another perfect example of what you're asking for, the classy and amicable acceptance of getting steamrolled by innuendo and slander. However, where the Republicans were obviously more than willing to comply, the voter had had enough. Along came another option and the establishment got their attitude adjustment. The spin doctors will be, no already are out in force trying to spin their way out of this. They rejected the obvious in the sweeping elections of 2010 and 2014, and now they will try to dodge reality in 2016.
One of the things Mr Obama said in the past couple of days was that 'we have to elect Hillary because all of the hard work (of the transformation) will otherwise go right out the window.' I listened to Hillary's concession speech and I heard her vow to continue the fight. I then listened to Obama's concessions speech, which as far as I know since he was not a candidate was the first ever in such circumstances, and he said basically the same thing. The voter has spoken but if they think this thing is over they are sadly mistaken. As the term implies, the revolution will again make it's circuit and the voter will be called on again to be responsible stewards of the gift of self-governance.
But, until that day we've got work to do! Thank God and let's celebrate, but let us also be vigilant, especially the next 71 days, 10 hours and 16 minutes.

Incorrect. I am suggesting that HRC did not commit a felony. She exercised a cavalier attitude toward the rules and the advice of others, including her President. It was not an isolated incident. Ultimately, she paid the price, as the Rust Belt sent her, and others, a message. Again, none of this takes away from the monumental achievement of PE Trump in winning the nomination and the general election. I believe this shot of adrenalin will be good for the country, as I have said before.
