McConnell: "You see Donald, our federal government is comprised of three branches--the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch. Each has the ability to check the powers of the other two..."

Trump: "You're boring me, Mitch--I'll figure this stuff out later. Who's that on the wall?" - Trump

McConnell: "That's Abraham Lincoln. He was our 16th president, Donald."

Either way I'm good. But if it makes you feel all righteous and tingly to think that we're all out here fuming...carry on.

If those delusions keep you warm at night, far be it from me to get in your way.
"If he wins, I'll still have God, a great family a good job...and SquirrelWig McRacistpants as a President."

"I'll just get to come back here in November and cackle at you all for thinking one of the WORLD's most disliked men honestly even stood a chance once he gets his wig and a$$ handed to him."




Your post contradicts itself.

The first quote assumes that you think he stands a chance of winning.

The second quote says that you will cackle at the people who thought "he even stood a chance".

You wouldn't be hedging your bets if you didn't think he stood a chance.

So will you be cackling at yourself?

If you want to argue that is typical, I most certainly won't disagree but it is pretty run of the mill.
Its called being a pathetic fraud and a sellout. Turning your back on millions who voted for the rhetoric you ran your campaign on. It just proves Trump can't be trusted and will lie and then sellout to whoever, even the establishment to get votes. Pathetic, he's no better than Hillary.

Nobody voted for Trump. They voted against Cruz and the rest of the establishment.

Here is why Trump won.

Well the joke is on them because Trump is now an establishment puppet. Did you REALLY think a billionaire, one percenter elitist who's made a career off crony capitalism was going to go to Washington and change the system he helped build? LOL!!!!

I discuss him. I've said he holds many positions that I simply can not support.

In the very minimal argument of there being no other options and who would you rather see win, Hillary or Trump, I would rather see Trump. I'm not voting for either though.

Mitch: You have to go down a level and to your left. The restroom will be on your left, after you turn.

Trump: So, let me get this straight...
