Trivializing the deaths of 29 men to score points with the lowest among us.

Do yourself a favor and visit the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum in Paradise, MI. Stand on the shores of Lake Superior during a November storm.

Show some respect and stop being so pathetic.

The entire country including prairie dogs, rattlesnakes and wild horses had their say too. I know this isn`t the first time that the 2nd place finisher was declared the winner but do any of the 1st tier countries have nutty election rules like we do?

Look, we all know that in the US we elect Presidents through an Electoral College, not by popular vote. So because Trump won the way he did, we can't say it was cheating.

However, if a person wins election while losing the popular vote, you would think that person would show some humility and recognize that they don't have a popular mandate. You would think they would show some class and reach out to the other side and try to heal the divisions. That would be the graceful thing to do.

Unfortunately, humility, class and grace are three words that would never be used to describe Donald Trump.

Don't want to freak you people out, either Left or Right, BUT why do I get the sense that Hildabeast is going to run again in 2020?

She is staying very much in the public sphere. Although not saying anything of real value, her rhetoric sounds like political positioning to me. AND, notice that there is a total void on the Dem side; no strong leader-type on board for them to rally around. She realizes that.

However, I wonder if they really don't want her and that that's part of the reason the Dems are shifting radically Left, blatantly Socialist even......to keep her out??

This is a long shot.

Could be THIS Gordon.

Wait, really? Reach out to radical, crazed, nasty Liberals?

Fercrissakes, a woman and her family can't even have a simple Fri night dinner at a restaurant without being asked to leave in the middle of their meal because some unhinged nut doesn't like the way that woman does her job. Then, as a response to the understandable public backlash to that absurdity, an elected Dem whacko goes out on the street to publically urge all Dems to stalk, harrass and refuse service to all employees of the administration.

Hey LEO, you can't make this stuff up! And you want POTUS to extend an olive branch to crazed people like that? Your message is to the wrong crowd, do you get that?

Tell the Dems to behave like HUMAN BEINGS, then we can get some things done and move forward!
