Strange that you need those you've defeated present for you to celebrate. Aren't you confident enough within yourself to celebrate without others present? Or is this part of the sore winner aspect we've seen across the Internet over the last day. As I relayed in another thread, after the Democratic victory in 2008, conservatives throughout our area were quite saddened. Our church community reached out in friendship and peace, with what was akin to the the grace that we've seen the Obama administration exhibit for eight years. Here we are in 2016, and the election goes the other way. What do the victors do? Seemingly, they all act like spoiled children (because that's the only reaction we're seeing). Now I know that not all conservatives are acting like that, but it must be a great embarrassment to those who aren't to see those who are. In 2008, it was my place to take any sore winners among my cohort to task for their behavior. Admittedly, I didn't encounter any such behavior that I had to address. This time around it isn't my place; I didn't vote for this guy. So where are the conservative folks with the maturity necessary to know that it is their responsibility to school the spoiled children in their cohort about such disreputable behavior?
Yes, we truly need a revolution of values, in this nation. Otherwise, the inmates will end up running the asylum.

I take it on a person by person basis. There are posters on here that have lost gracefully, and they have my respect.
Then, there are others that are still kicking and screaming, and yet others who after a year of bashing us, just disappeared into the woodwork after losing the election. Why do those 2 groups deserve any better treatment than they are giving to Trump supporters?
No way. Your side won. Now you get to enjoy the scrutiny of what you say and what you suggest, just like we have for the last eight years. Stop making excuses.

Based on what precept of morality? I'm really curious about your answer. I'm a worship leader and a scholar and teacher of morality, so please educate me about this arcane belief system that you're talking about.

And I appreciate that, and I call on you, as one of the mature folks on your side, to take the sore winners on your side to task for their childish behavior, just as I stand ready to take the sore losers on my side to task.

Why does that bother you? Do you think any reasonable person is obligated to stand around and accept the aforementioned sore winners behavior we're seeing going unchecked? Take responsibility for your half of the equation here. If you want to actually have a discussion with people from the other side, clean up the mess your folks are leaving.

So summarizing. You have no defense for your comments, and you're intent on acting like an immoral miscreant instead of engaging in a respectful discussion.
The question is whether there are any mature Trump supporters who will have the character integrity to take you to task for your behavior and how it reflects upon them.
