In his LiveJournal blog post, titled "President Pussygrabber," Martin expressed his disappointment in the results.
"America has spoken," he wrote. "I really thought we were better than this. Guess not.Trump was the least qualified candidate ever nominated by a major party for the presidency. Come January, he will become the worst president in American history, and a dangerously unstable player on the world stage. And the decimated Democrats, a minority in both House and Senate, do not have the power to hinder him.Over the next four years, our problems are going to get much, much worse."
He ended with an ominous reference to GOT:
"Winter is coming. I told you so."
