Wait your turn Donny as you will be in over your head soon enough!
Trump's immature attention-seeking, thin-skinned side is showing. Bigly.

He still doesn't get that half of the country doesn't care what he's tweeting--he's on ignore, and making himself look foolish. In fact, over half the country would like him to please stop tweeting altogether.

Notice he tweets out his insults (in a cowardly fashion). No press conferences for this guy (who spent months criticizing his opponent for not having a press conference). Sad!

Case closed.


It was not Barry and there was no failure on anyone's part. I was an ongoing assignment and it took time to complete.

See how dumb it is to take 2 states and switch them to you advantage to see what 'could have been'? It makes zero sense.

I think it will be more than just "occasional".

Hillary's popular vote "victory" was entirely due to two states, California and New York, both very liberal. In fact, I read that in some parts of CA, there was no Republican choice for Republican voters for some offices. That's how bad it is.

Now that you are informed, you can drop the popular vote mantra. It's meaningless.
It's a mantra, one of the very few straws they can grasp and try to hold on to. Under our system, it's meaningless.

It's meaningless under our system. Deal with it.

If "half the country doesn't care what he's tweeting" then why are they upset about it? If they put him on "ignore" how can he "make himself look foolish"? If he's on ignore, why does "half the country" want him to stop tweeting? to put it simply, why do they get their panties in a bunch over something they care so little about? Who are the ones who are looking foolish?

Obama had, for the most part, a fawning press; and you fault Trump for not holding press conferences with the same press ("Obama's press") ? Why would he waste the time with people who are not interested in reporting straight and fair? He's smart to bypass them until they come to their senses.

IF If didn't happen and that's why Trump is President.

I think it's odd that liberals are complaining about not following tradition and not being crying whiny babies in the government... it's also very ironic...

Not true. Trump opposed the Iraq war. He was on Sean Hannity's show several times in which they disagreed about that. Hannity approved it and Trump did not.

But Hillary did not win those two states, did she.

She lost bigly.

Then we have all the illegals your President gladly put upon us over our own children, vets and seniors.
Sorry, there is no race war.

There have always been poor people.

Obama deported more illegals than the previous administration.

Your previous saint, Reagan, gave amnesty to millions of illegals. He's the one who opened that door, actually.


You said the country is ruined.

Your post above is your 'proof' that the country is ruined?

haha

The fact that he is the least popular president elect EVER says all you need to know.
Your statement is glib.
Please don't let your anger control your thoughts.
