I think the left wants to leave out the "We" part and just be "the People" themselves in their own niche.


As per the lefts actionable history as you watch the monopoly you have hungered for slip away...........

Shouldn't be a surprise - leopards don't change their spots and some things never change.

He's been a scofflaw, liar, cheat, thief, swindler - and worse - all his life. Why would anyone expect anything different.




The Dems rejected Clinton in '08 and the American People rejected her in '16.


Save the "Life isn't fair" stuff for your Mommy.

I guess that means that every college student that graduates should find that job, make big bucks and get to be a millionaire. If they don't , they should all sue that college!

If those Americans wanted their severance pay, they were forced to train their replacements. It didn't bother you that many of those Americans ended up unemployed for months, all the while H1-Bs were working?

It didn't bother you that many people either lost their health insurance or saw their premiums and deductables soar out of control?

Guess what? All the above is fine and dandy with you because none of it affected you. You've never had to watch as illegal aliens destroyed your community, for example.

You are saying that you don't deserve better than what is now in place. That's very sad.
Yup, all of those things bother me. But I don't think Trumps going to fix any of it.

Enjoy the ride.......

Probably be the safer place with the lunatic at the wheel of the bus.

It proved to be for the winners this time around.

When barrry drove his bus into the wall, it took out all those silly libs riding up front rather handily, didn't it?

Left us back there to take over up front.

Trump will back the bus up. Probably right over all the libs still trying to catch up from behind. Trump is a proven successful driver. He'll avoid the wall. And everyone, even the libs will be better for it.

It's gonna be a fun eight years.

A minority of voters are giving him the WH. All of us have no choice on how he handles or mishandles the position. All we can do at this point is hope for the best and see if he "grows into the job."

But he'll have to transition to rational adult behavior first, and he's shown no indications of that so far.

Oh, well.

He still has 6 days to evolve.

And I completely understand Trump supporters gloating about this win - they have every right to be as happy as a pig in @&*#. I remember when Obama won, taking red, white, and blue iced doughnuts to work for everyone. Some people were furious and admittedly, I enjoyed that. So, it's time for Trump's supporters to bask in their victory. But still, we are ALL responsible for who gets elected. Hopefully a lesson to remember.
Many of us are not gloating; some even wonder what he will do or say next, but we need to hope for the best. We had poor choises, certainly Clintin was not an angel. As for impeaching Trump aren't you getting a bit ahead of yourself and what makes you think our choice would be Cruz would be our President. I am rather certain our VP would step into the post of president.

I do agree with you, it isn't just one side responsible for who is elected.
