I think he'll do a terrific job. I would have never imagined Donald Trump as President. Just put yourself two, three years back in the past and think to yourself. A billionaire real estate tycoon who stars in The Apprentice President? No way. It is just awe inspiring to see him in the oval office. Those that are level headed or Conservative will agree with him. Those that are not won't. That's a given. And those nay sayers may never change their minds because they are so full of hate it clouds their judgment. I ask you a question: Did Obama make the stock market rally? Did it ever hit an all time high of 20k? The man hasn't been in office but a week and things are looking up. He's done more already than what Obama has done in 8 years.

I wish the President good luck and together, yes, we WILL make America great again!

No, when he says there were 3-4 million illegal votes against him that's just Trump being Trump, same with his childish focus on inauguration numbers. I have no doubt that there were illegals who did vote but the impact I'm sure was completely negligible.

And Mexico isn't going to pay for the wall, and if the US attempts to go after it through tariffs like plenty keep spouting it will spark a US/Mexico trade war where it costs us several times what the wall would on its own. I don't support the wall for what it's worth, it seems like a waste of money and resources. Immigration does need to be enforced and the border secured, but there are cheaper, more effective methods.


Not everything need be black/white, left/right. You don't have to constantly attack someone for having an opinion.

So when Trump blatantly lies about every verifiable fact not matter how trivial that's just Trump being Trump.

But when he says he cares about the working man that's the Real truth.

^ American Conservatism in action.

When the day comes where, for starters, Trump fights for and gets legislation passed that gives the middle class and the poor a 20% tax cut while simultaneously raising taxes on himself and his fellow billionaires by 25%, gets rid of all the loopholes that Big Corp. America gave themselves via corrupting our politicians, divests himself of his businesses, releases his tax returns and actually STOPS LYING HIS ASS OFF 24/7/365, I will gladly travel to his business office at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., slap him on one of his robust butt cheeks and give'um a well deserved "atta boy!"

How anybody can come to a different conclusion simply boggles the mind at this point. You'd have to willfully ignore these defects in his mental state literally shouting at you.

But Glorious Leader Trump is going to fix it all. Do you have his picture in your home yet?

I would normally agree with what you ended with but you started with saying you don't care how much he lies so long as you agree with those lies.
That's not an opinion, that's putting opinions above facts and someone needs to call people out what that happens. What is it that makes one believe something someone says when that person has been proven to have lied more often than not?

DJIA hit 20k today, must be some stuff he's not screwing up no?

Claiming Donnie is the reason for that is like claiming a 3rd string QB that played the last 2 minutes of a blow-out is the reason your team won the game 55-0 ffs...

Last I looked it was Trump that was soundly rejected by voters. You can't lose my 3M votes, then claim to have some type of mandate from the population. Yes, he won with the archaic rules of the EC, but that does not mean that the majority of voters accepted his ideals.

Although I don't personally care for Hillary, she would've been a fine president and was less likely to seriously screw stuff up by orders of magnitude. And the majority of voters in this country agreed that Hillary should've been the president.

Besides being a paid member of the Wall Street Club, a hawk, and a divisionist unable to connect with anyone but panders well? I guess she's as good as some. No, I don't like Trump and I think he's nuts. But that's the system and those who didn't want either had no real choice. Remember that the majority of voters picked HIllary, but both were the most disliked in history of data collection

Don't regress. No one forced anyone but the choices were already disliked and anyone with a non-partisan brain cell would have known that. Your hyperbole doesn't cut it and you ought to know by now. You lost and in part because you decided to run the second most disliked person, unless you think Trump has super psionic powers to thought control the entire nation except for a group of select people running around in tights with a big "D" on their chest.

is it worth reading through or is it the same old bullshit from drumpf?

It's worth reading in terms of a 'holy shit this guy has a mental disorder' way. The voter fraud and crowd size parts were particularly insane. He was ranting about how every illegal vote cast was for Clinton, then somehow switched to saying he had never claimed that millions voted illegally, then when confronted with a tweet from him that said exactly that he ignored it and kept ranting. Then he kept going back to the crowd size thing.

Then he said this about his insane speech that dishonored the CIA's wall where they mark operatives who have been killed in the line of duty:
PRESIDENT TRUMP: That location was given to me. Mike Pence went up before me, paid great homage to the wall. I then went up, paid great homage to the wall. I then spoke to the crowd. I got a standing ovation. In fact, they said it was the biggest standing ovation since Peyton Manning had won the Super Bowl and they said it was equal. I got a standing ovation. It lasted for a long period of time.

This man is not well.

Yeah, those Russian Psy-Ops were so strong they even brainwashed some previous Democrat voters.
Why is that so hard to believe? Do you think Democrats' brains are so superior that they're magically immune to effective propaganda? I've criticized the die-hard Dems here for refusing to look inward for explanations of Clinton's loss. The opposite applies to the anti-Dems, who refuse to accept there were also external factors, including Russian manipulation, Comey, etc. National elections are huge, complex events. They aren't won or lost due to single, simplistic causes.

Of course it's not simple, but people need enemies they can blame everything on. That's where the brains on both sides fail. All Clinton supporters are Communists and all Trump backers are white supremacists, or so one might think based on comments I've read.

from conner:
Did Obama make the stock market rally? Yes, numbnuts, the stock market is MUCH higher than it was when he took office in 2009.
Did it ever hit an all time high of 20k? Fvck yes, see the above question you fat sack of marmalade
The man hasn't been in office but a week and things are looking up... yea, tell that to first time home buyers or the epa or those who respect and revere science.
He's done more already than what Obama has done in 8 years. BULLSHIT, only in what passes for what you call a brain.

You are a seriously simple twatwaffle, you know that?

You go on as if Hillary getting slimed justifies Trump as President. It doesn't.

Backed by the Repub propaganda machine & the Russians Trump became the most astounding con man & bullshit artiste to disgrace the presidency & the American people.

Make no mistake about it- he's a disgrace on all of us. You didn't have to like Hillary to see that she was the only rational choice. Well, that's if you're rational which the electorate obviously wasn't.

Once the nominations were made it became clear that tearing down Hillary was a really, really irrational thing to do, and you're still doing it. That alone should tell you that you haven't been thinking straight the whole time.

This reply was done due to jhnnn making such a big deal out of Russian Psy-Ops as a cause for Clinton's loss.

They put fuel on the fire. I'm sure they're rather pleased with themselves. To dispute that is to deny reality even more so than the Donald.

And it sails right over. OK, it's everyone else's fault. Too bad the dems cut Bernie off at the knees so Hillary would be the only choice, especially since every indicator showed he had a far better chance than Hillary. But that would require being rational and not as dedicated to Hillary as many were with Trump. Yes those who shoved Hillary at us are partially responsible for this mess. Not entirely but this was never all about one thing being causative, but many being contributory. Like Bowfinger said this a very complex situation. Own your part.
