I’m going to be very interested to read these posts again in four years.

I still maintain that Trump will not turn out to be the next Hitler nor will he be the great savior. I think when it’s all said and done he will probably be a “meh” president with liberals upset that he wasn’t the catastrophe they rant and rave about and everyone who believed what he said upset that he failed to live up to 95% of his campaign promises.

I more or less agree with regards to Trump himself… I think he’s a bad person, but I doubt we’ll see anything truly groundbreaking one way or the other from him during his time in office (though we will continue to have at least one ridiculous drama or scandal or controversy per day). I’m more interested about his cabinet picks and the Republican-controlled congress.

The right wing has a chance to prove they know what they’re doing with regards to America, and we’ll see if they truly do (or not) in these coming years. They face very little opposition in congress and from the President as well as eventually the supreme court, so it’ll be interesting to see their agendas at (mostly uncontested) work.

Intersting is not the word I would use.

Fascinating. And where were you on the day that President Obama delivered his timeless historic speech?

As if Trump will ever deliver a timeless historic speech.

In honor of President Barack Obama’s very very last day, and hours as President, please share your memory of his greatest speech. You know the one, that one on par with “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!,” “Four score and seven year ago,” “Ask not what your country can do for you…,” “a date which will live in infamy,” and “I can hear you, the rest of the world hears you! And the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon!”

You all know that speech President Obama gave that made us all shiver in patriotism, share your memories of it. You know where you were at when you heard it, just share.

I think he is going to be a disaster.

fixed.

You really really hate that I am a staunch Conservative who votes Republican, don’t you?

I hate that you automatically vote Republican no matter what. I hate that you voted for Trump when you could have voted third party/independent/write-in. You didn’t have to vote for a scum bag.

Well, there’s very little choice in my mind. Third party is simply an exercise in futility at this point in time and the Democrat party rejects just about everything I believe. With that in mind, what choice do I have?

voting third party/independent/write-in is not an exercise in futility.

That’s another reason why Trump was elected.

whatever.

He’s right. The hysterics prompted a lot of people to vote for Trump to spite the faux outrage on the left. Ironically it created a lot of faux outrage on the right too.

I assure you, my outrage at Trump getting elected, and my lack of respect for those that voted for him is not faux.

Perhaps “faux” was the wrong word. How about “hysterical”?

nah.

OK, your reaction to Donald Trump’s victory was hysterical. It absolutely was. You had the same reaction as frevious did.

not really.

You did. I wasn’t even referring to your Nazi flag post either (which was hysterical) but something else that you both said.

which was?

He was a reality star but his claim to fame comes from his business empire much more than his tenure on Celebrity Apprentice. It’d be like referring to Robin Williams as the star of Patch Adams. It isn’t wrong, but it is leaving out what he’s actually known for and implies that that is all that he was.

my point is no one that has anything to do “reality” tv show, should be anywhere near the Oval Office. It is not a place for clowns.

Bill Clinton was a clown and he made it in, LOL.

Bill Clinton at least had experience in running a state as governor before he became president. Our new president questioned wether or not Obama was even born in the US.

On the other hand, being on a reality show doesn’t automatically mean Trump was unqualified to run for office- it’s the lack of any political experience that should disqualify him.

A lot of people asked the same question, some even asked knowing it didn’t matter. Being that HIS MAMA WAS A U.S. CITIZEN = HE’S A U.S. CITIZEN!!! No matter where he was born!

and of the two of us, which one of us voted for the guy that questioned Obama’s citizenship?

Me. Still better than Hillary to me.

you’re judgement is clouded.

And as far as the lack of “political experience,” I patently reject that the President must be a career politician.

You’d put in a rookie to play QB in the Superbowl.

How much experience did George Washington have? Ulysses S. Grant? Herbert Hoover? Dwight D. Eisenhower?

Washington, Grant, and Eisenhower at least had experience in leadership as Generals(Washington also had a experience in politics as a member of the 1st and 2nd Continental Congresses). Hoover did have a little experience see his wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Hoover

Rehashing the same old Trump and his voters are rapists, sexists, xenophobes, homophobes, sexual predators, Putin lovers, America haters, and women beaters is old, washed out, unproductive, and just plain sad. Apparently some of us have learned nothing from the closing of the other politics thread and they don’t seem intent on doing so either.

😦

blah, blah, blah.
