Hillary cares, wow, that one had me doubled over with laughter.

Hyper-partisan politics reared it's head in Bush's 2nd term when the DNC and their colluding media demonized Bush for EVERYTHING he did.

The partisan, DNC controlled senate change their rules to make Obama's appointees more easily confirmed.

It continued when Obama took office and the democrats used every trick in the book - and changed senate rules in order to force the ACA through on a strict partisan vote.

Romney - arguably one of the nicest and most moral person to ever run for POTUS - was figuratively assassinated by the media and DNC.

Obama's unprecedented scope of executive actions bypassed GOP controlled house and senate.


No, it's not the GOP who sowed "Dragon's teeth" (I do love King) but it is indeed the Democrats who planted them and is now reaping what they sowed.

I am sorry you do not agree with the Constitutional right to due process.

This was a case in Arkansas, not the world stage.

The case never went to trial. The girl's mother agreed to a plea for reduced charges.

If you did your homework you would know that Hillary subsequently said she lost her faith in polygraph tests given such tests determined her court appointed client was innocent.

Trump won in key states because he had better messaging than Hillary. Millions held their noses and voted for him. I am one of them.

Regardless of who won, he/ she would enter office with unprecedented conflicts of interest and record low approval ratings.

Some DNC staffers referred in emails to their initiative to keep Trump's taco bowl tweet out there. "The best taco bowls are made at the Trump Tower Grill. I love Hispanics"

Hillary did not refer to anyone as uneducated kids living in their parent's basements. She was acknowledging some Bernie supporters who feel stuck in dead end jobs, living in their parent's basement.

Bernie tapped into a mass of people who liked his anti- establishment, anti war, pro free college pro free healthcare platforms. He lost the primary.

The Trump message focused on jobs and tax cuts and avoided getting into the weeds of how. He threw more than enough red med out there to appeal to those who perceive themselves as victims.

Hillary lost. Trump won.

Had the outcome been Trump winning the popular vote while losing the Electorial College, do you think the Trump supporters would go quietly into the night?
This is all true, particularly the bolded. Those who voted for Trump will quickly realize (if they haven't already) that the man cannot possible deliver on even half of what he promised. I did not vote for the manchild, but I stand to gain MORE from him being in office than most of the people who voted for him. Tax cuts for high earners? Who does that hurt most? Check out Facebook. The people who support him most vocally are also the ones who are under or unemployed and rely on Federal programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and even the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare! The greatest catalyst for change is adversity. Hopefully the "victims" realize who has really been undermining their well-being for decades and stop blindly voting for the GOP because they feel morally superior in doing so. THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS EXPANDED MORE UNDER BOTH REAGAN (R) AND BUSH (R) THAN CLINTON (D) OR OBAMA (D). WAKE UP.

If Hillary was literally crying inconsolably, I don't see how her emotional disposition can be justified as appropriate in the role of POTUS.

Odd that you brag about voting against your own economic self interest, then castigate others for doing the same thing....

Yep, there was just too much truth coming out about the Democrats, and lord knows these corrupt freaks melt in the light of truth.

Thing is, the same email phishing scams that caught Podesta and the DNC were tried against the RNC but their anti-spam software caught them, before anyone saw them.

So if the Democrats had used an email anti-spam software, none of that TRUTH would have escaped into the hands of the voters.

That she cried when she lost the election to such despicable tactics is hardly surprising.

Like playground bullies who delight in tormenting classmates and then complain when nobody will come to their birthday parties, Trump and his followers are reaping what they've sown.

Constant tweets and posts about crybabies and losers is unlikely to change this.
^^^^^ This. Yes!
