Putting party over country. Nice job, guys. So much for "draining the swamp."

I am sure crooked Hillary would have put country over party! HAHAHAHA!!

But, I understand...you are still butt-hurt over the election and now you will nitpick this and that.....all you can do.

Liberals will always find something wrong, something they don't like.

It's the nature of the beast. I have 3 words for you "DEAL WITH IT!"

Or.....leave the country along with all the celebrities who promised they would if Trump were elected.

Get out of the way. MY PRESIDENT-ELECT Donald Trump has work to do.
How inclusive of you!
But you are right that to Trump's supporters it doesn't matter
what Trump says or does, they and he won!! It will
now be times of bullying and strutting by
his fan base because that's what they are , not voters but fans.
The haters now have a voice , they now see themselves as legit.

Trump has awoken something vile in USA.

Not really. I accept Trump is president-elect. Doesn't mean I have to like his choices of advisors. Especially when he picks a Breitbart white nationalist scumbag.

Note that I'm not going to go, "He's not my president", and whine & ***** like some did for the past eight years.

That is exactly correct. The worst outcomes are achieved by a consensus of only like-minded groupthink people. There's no vetting of flaws in that environment.

One of the most famous examples of groupthink failures:

You are so naive
You think Trump is going to turn time back,
Recreate unions that Republicans spent 60 yrs tearing down...
How is Trump going to MAKE companies return to high $$ mfg jobs...
Trump himself did NO mfg in the US for his products
His daughter has none of her products made in the US because it would undercut her profits
Will she start mfg HER products here in Michigan???
When the Mississippi flows north maybe--but in short time, NO!!!
Mfg jobs arent coming back unless we have huge trade war and big tariffs
Get ready for prices on almost anything you buy to go up if that happens

Plus I have bern hearing Preibus and other Trump mouthpieces trying to downplay the negative cloud Steve Bannin casts over the kumbaya reapproachment we are supposed to be lulled into believing will happen now...
From Bannon's own mouth:

In an interview, Mr. Bannon, 62, rejected what he called the “ethno-nationalist” tendencies of some in the movement. His interest in populism and American nationalism, he said, has to do with curbing what he sees as the corrosive effects of globalization. And he believes his enemies are misstating his views and those of many Trump followers.
“These people are patriots,” he said. “They love their country. They just want their country taken care of.”
He added, “It’s not that some people on the margins, as in any movement, aren’t bad guys — racists, anti-Semites. But that’s irrelevant.”


Hitler's brand of nationalism meant Germans above all--but only pure-bred Aryan stock...
Heaven forbid that any Jews or gays could be "Germans"!!
So resisting Globalization is just Bannon's PC code for "all white nation"...

I am going to accuse you of being an anti-Semite.


Now you have also been accused of being an anti-Semite.

I'm curious: is there any legitimate resistance to Globalism or is anyone who talks about it just a hopeless racist in your view?

Yep, if you don't want to be ruled thousands of mile away by an unelected body of kleptocrats, you are a racist.

Africa is getting sick of China . They were also sick of Europe at one time. i understand completely.
