And in the morning they accepted that. The talking heads on TV were just
following the numbers in real-time.

I don't know anyone who thought that Trump didn't win. Hillary lost, and of
course there are reasons she lost. One of them might even have been the
announcement of an FBI investigation right before the election.

It's different because to the Democrats, at least the ones I know, "not my
president" means "Yes, he's president, but I didn't vote for him and wash my
hands of anything he does," whereas to people like Gregory, "not my
president" means "He was fraudulently elected and is an illegitimate
president." The difference is subtle, but see if you can spot it.
