Of the Republicans, I thought for sure it was going to be Jeb Bush. To be honest, Jeb Bush vs Hillary I don't know what I would have done. Probably sat in a corner and screamed.
I get not liking Hillary, but Trump doesn't know what he's doing.

He cares more about them than Hillary, that's for sure. And his policies may even work better for the working class. We know what Hillary's policies would have done because we've already been doing that for the last eight years. I'm willing to see what Trump can do. If he sucks ass, he'll be out of there in four years. And if he does anything impeachable, he'll get impeached. He won't have a cheerleading media to cover for him or a bunch of politicians so afraid to impeach like they were with the first black president. Obama knew there was no way they were going to do that. And despite what they said, Obama did not have a scandal free presidency.

Trump is a smart enough guy and can figure it out. The real problem is his temperament and his lack of self restraint and his ego.

Learning the in's and outs of DC isn't what worries me, it's his core personality and his core ego issues, things that aren't easily observed within one's self. Learning how to be a politician is the least of it for me.

Really? Obama certainly didn't take it seriously as he thumbed his nose at our immigration laws.

Because he is a narcissist and loved the attention and adoration. If he received any criticism, he could have security toss them out or egg the crowd into doing so. I imagine it was heaven for him and hardly work.

So? He could call them out if he wanted. Where does it say that he can't do it? Did he do that at every rally? No, he didn't. Security would handle it. Hillary and Bubba shouted down critics when she was campaigning. Are you saying it was okay when they did it, but not when Trump did it?


Do you speak for all of the other Republicans who voted for Trump? Is it OK that his positions were very liberal positions before he decided to run?

Where did I say that I spoke for all republicans? I'm not registered as a republican nor do I belong to the RNC. As for his positions---there are plenty of RINOs out there and that appears to be okay for the republicans who vote for them.



Why? Because you said so?

Yup



This is what doesn't hold water! The notion that because I am anti-Trump, that means I am against fixing corruption. No. What I am against is a narcissist who will say whatever it takes to win and I have no illusions that he will be able to fix the issues he campaigned on and will likely set them back, if anything.
You keep harping on "narcissist". Why, when politicians for the most part are narcissists who will say whatever it takes to win. See the previous president for an example.

Well, that's your opinion. Go ahead and be a pessimist and be miserable for the next 4 (hopefully 8!) years ahead. No one is going to stop you.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA. The man has never donated to charity with his money ever before.... puh-lease.....

We've had a stable economy since 2014, which is 6 years past the worst global financial crisis of modern times..... It's like it takes time to get the economy back on track after tens of trillions of PRIVATE assets were lost in 2007/2008.......

No you were duped.... the world has changed and your people got left behind because you can't compete. Did you know the US has it's own tariff system for the rest of the world? And own subsidies to industries....? You were duped that the US is losing to other countries because trade agreements.... You were lied to....

And your point is, what, exactly?

I don't care how many came to his inauguration. Nor do I care how many came to Trump's.
