what media myths - trumps mom was Irish, and he married two eastern european immigrant women- is that not true-

and btw, he's not actually conservative. he's just a jerk.

I agree with you on he's not your President. That's your call. You don't want to recognize him, more power to you. I didn't support him but thought he is better than Hillary, I'll refer to him as my president.

Last elections with Obama as the President, some of the loony far left made it a point to say otherwise.

Again, the issue is citizenship or legal status.

You do things the right way in America, like you are supposed to do in basically any other country. That's why we have laws.

Too bad your mom was disowned for the shame of marrying an America. We're not losing any sleep over that, though.

I AM A PROUD AMERICAN AND PROUD OF MY FELLOW CITIZENS!!

Hopefully, we can all unite as a country now, and get the work done.

Trump was up against almost everybody in the media, and hung in there.

This truly is awesome, and historic.
Don't hold your breath. People are not going to united. The media pulled out all the stops making Trump supporters out to be evil Nazis, despite all evidence to the contrary.

I agree, but I think this proves that an underdog can win, even up against the massive media machine.

If Trump is a great president, it might change everybody's perception of party and politics. I thought he gave a great acceptance speech.

He really is an outsider, and not attached to either party. The republican establishment went as hard at him as the democratic establishment.

This was an almost impossible election to win with all the misogyny and race baiting done by the media. I am so PROUD of everybody. My state voted for Obama last time, so to me it shows that we are really engaged in politics and really paying attention.

things are about to get better in America, and maybe we won't have World War III after all.

And I thought you had a college education.

Trump has EXCEEDED the required 270 electoral votes.

What the rest of the state do has NO BEARING on the outcome.

TRUMP HAS WON. Get used to it.

"I think" Didn't you ALSO "think" Hillary was going to win by a LANDSLIDE?

As citizens, we vote him out of office in four years if he does not initiate what he promised- it is that simple.


Unlike libs (who believe in totalitarianism and the cult of the individual), most conservatives and independents WANT RESULTS.


At least with Trump, the rule of law is again the guiding force of the republic and we, as citizens, have a chance. If Hillary was elected, you would have been owned by the Saudis, Wall Street, and anyone who would have thrown a hundred million or two her way.

Hold on there Tex, lets not get ahead of ourselves. Trump has a massive history of being a progressive and no actual history of actions to support being conservative or caring about the Constitution.

Let us celebrate if he holds to his word and we actually see some real efforts that show he has changed, otherwise this will be yet another upset.

So gun laws are a waste of law enforcement's time and resources?
