The problem with being forced into choosing the lessor of 2 evils. We watch who trump chooses for his MAGA Team.

Granted we need to see what he does, but I for one am highly skeptical the landscape will be even close to what we envisioned.

Thats not to say the people wont get a few bread crumbs here and there, enough to keep them from burning down the white house but those at the top of the food chain will always have the bulk share, and create laws out of thin air to insure it remains that way.


Then there is the bright side, we can always vote the bum out next time, and the next time, and the next time!

Evidently, The New Yorker is not reading it's own printed words about Hillarys "gracious concession speech"

I get your point OP...but he hasn't even been inaugurated yet.

And only abt half of the country is in tears....and play doh therapy at this point.

"As we gaze into the political crystal ball: "
 
As RELIEVED as, I am with the Clinton detronement. The IDIOCY of some Americans continues with longing for royalty. (Look how the media put the Kennedy's up on a pedestal, we went from divorced  Roman Catholic bootleggers, which was historically shocking- to the Arabian Kardashian whores and their bad life choices).

Now- what's done is done. Hopefully.

And I think we HAVE TO be ever MORE VIGILANT not to repeat pass self defeating distractions as well as politics.

In our favor - Most who voted for Trump did not do so, because they wanted a king or savior, or saw him as one. But, voted him in as the only option to STOP the madness and criminal mentality.

I only hope now, those people TURN OFF THE TV AND IGNORE THE BUTTER CUPS and the entertainment fractions,  completely. Because the Buttercups certainly won't.

The danger is not ONLY within but OUTSIDE influences. Americans didn't care, pre Obama, what the world thought of us. We never asked either.
(That was Obama's desire or need, to be liked and a king and trying to leave a legacy ? But NOT to Americans).

Oh the media, and the irony!

IF and I HOPE, Trump does put American and Americans FIRST. Then we have a, small shot at being a thriving and  independent, 'America' again. And not a reflection or imitation of Europe.
Like parents use to say 'If you friend tells you to jump off a bridge, would you do it?"

Hopefully we have learned not only from our own mistakes but of  Europe's.
Hopefully we can correct or at least stop the insanity of the last 8 yrs., before we are at the point of no return.

Not in our favor - Young people especially, do not know history. Our own or the world's, unless they READ it willing for themselves.
(Any one wonder why progressives  want to rewrite history? Guess!?)

Some have been brainwashed into believing that all the, so called, liberalism is an improvement instead of the reality of most catchy slogans equals LESS FREEDOM in all aspects and NOT equality.


Stay VIGILANT :flag_us:

Americans will get through with checks and balances, like always

but, like always, not all americans will approve or agree and charges of 'corruption' will continue as well as the sensational factoids the internet thrives on and the bad behaviors the accredited press thrive on

Try google, or msm archives. :thumbsup:

He's been a big contributor, to Hilary's
political aspirations, prior to this cycle.
Campaigned for her in the 2008 primaries.

Financially, he's contributed heavily, to democrats,
and liberal causes. Yet contributed, a very small
pittance, to only one republican... Other than his own
campaign. And zilch to conservative causes.

It's been a big 'dog and pony' show.

Don't look, just at a candidate 's current or recent
campaign rhetoric. Look at their entire history.
The entire history, will tell you what the values are.


He's a dem. laugh

I know. Beating people at their own game.
I think Beck was one of them who laid out all the donations to the Dems.
Bill Clinton encouraged Donald Trump to run for office TOO.
His what ? 18th cousin in law on his wife's side. Well, Trump is Bill Clinton's Dem convert cousin too. laugh All in the family, like Obama.


Sorry OP offtopic
If we don't laugh at the royalty, we will cry.

I guess that's another one of his 'lies' then,,,



Trump has given to political candidates on both sides of the aisle. For example, he gave a total of $12,500 to Hillary Clinton's Senate and 2008 presidential campaigns, and a whopping $77,500 to current nemesis Mitt Romney's White House run. (All numbers in this piece are derived from data the Trump campaign reported to the FEC, and accessed via the Center for Responsive Politics.) Trump makes no secret of this; in fact, he seems somewhat proud of it, and his explanations for his bipartisan largesse are perhaps some of his most honest yet: "I was a businessman, and it was my obligation to get along with everybody, including the Clintons, including Democrats and liberals and Republicans and conservatives," he told Sean Hannity in January.

doesn't sound too right or left leaning,,,more about his pockets and favors than politics,, imho,,, it always has been and always will be

the man has no devotion to any person or party except Trump
