I'm not gonna be like how a lot of Rs were when Obama got elected and held office. I just hope he's more level headed as a president. He'll have to negotiate and listen and accept what his advisors tell him. He's gonna hold executive office with checks and balances. The autocratic pursuit of his campaign can't pan out in office.I hope he knows that.

But I will say that I gave Americans the benefit of the doubt. I overestimated the intelligence of the American electorate.

I voted for Trump. I am happy he won.


I don't agree with you.


Trump like Obama is my president. I hope for success where he is right and failure when he is wrong.
That is EXACTLY the same attitude most Republicans had when Obama was elected.
Its about POLICY not personality.

Putin is bombing civilians, not ISIS. And the coalition is already combating it. ISIS has lost tons of territory.

Obamacare has problems. But what are the alternatives?

Climate Change needs to be addressed.

This is not likely. Besides, there's already laws on the books on hiring illegals.

Putin is bombing ISIS. ISIS is hiding its HQ's in civilian areas just like Hamas.
Obama is barely bombing ISIS. He wants to use ISIS to replace Assad and install an Islamic caliphate in Syria.


Obamacare is a failure. We will implement free market principles that will drive down the cost of medicine and insurance.

There is no man-made climate change. Climate change always has happenned and always will happen.

There are already laws for hiring illegals but they are not being enforced. In addition Sanctuary Cities will be defunded.

You're clueless, and people like you are the reason why this buffoon got elected.

Trump is now my president also. I hope in four years to be able to say how wrong I was about him in my pronouncements during the primaries. I am glad for his election because it does show we are a nation where those in power really do have to answer to the little guy, even if I disagree with what the little guy wanted.

Do well President Trump, you have been put in the driver's seat of the most wonderful nation on Earth.

Now, that's what I call a substantial rebuttal.

Obama won't bomb civilians. Putin will. This is because Putin is an authoritarian, anti-liberal dictator that I do not want as our ally. I don't want him as an enemy. I'd say get the **** out of the Middle East (America first, unless it's about bombs because that's manly, right? Totally not a gay...) and let Putin do whatever he wants. But we won't help him or say what he's doing is right.

Obamacare is a failure because the law was basically written by corporations. Unless Trump does something about corporate influence, you can't possibly think things are going to get more affordable.

Most of the educated world disagrees with you. Clearly, that doesn't bother you as you've bought into the meme that education is liberal brainwashing. Let me guess, "evolution is just a theory" too, right? That's what Trump's running mate thinks. That's right. Trumps running mate is an actual idiot.

I agree on this. I don't really care about sanctuary cities to be honest, but the main issue with illegal immigration is how profitable it is. This is why neoliberalism is bad. We'll see if Trump's actually against it though.

You're speaking on the basis of ignorance. There's no hope in reasoning with you.
