Trump has NO mandate

I do, I am armed. But not with a handgun. However, i would only use it for self-defense in my home.

 

Again.. my hero!

Btw, what do you hope to accomplish? In reality>

 

I'm flattered to be your hero.

 

Of course, so is Mighty Mouse, and he too was fictional!..

 

oh, I see, so you're just trolling.

Good day sir.

 

You missed my previous edit:

What do you plan on accomplishing besides making asses out of yourselves?

And part II: How have (or will) his policies affect YOU negatively?

 

You lost.....33 States with Repub governors. Repubs with 69 State legislatures. Repubs won out with LT Governors. Then SOS' for the States.

Won the House.....and the Senate. Then the Presidency.

Say it slowly.....Pres-i-dent Trump. Now say it Loud and proud like James Brown would.

 

James Brown would take a #DumpOnTrump

 

Quiet Riot.....says Bang Your Head.

 

#DumpOnTrump

 

Still waiting for a response with some meaning behind it"!

 

yep, the Truth is America did not really like either choice... which in this case benefited Trump

and I been around long enough to know that sometimes people surprise you, Trump may surprise us and be a good or even great President, never know

 

The Country dumped on Hillary.....so its,

This is why I am in a wait and see mode. Until Trump becomes president and starts to govern, no one knows whether he will be good, bad or indifferent. There is plenty of time go get hyper one way or the other. Now is not the time.

 

agree, no way I would waste the effort protesting or anything like that at this point, he would actually have to do something real bad before it came to that

the fact that when the media asked the protestors if they voted and many said no, that just tells me many are more upset at themselves for not voting them at Trump for winning

they did not think it big enough a deal to actually get out and vote before the election, so why think it's such a big deal after?

.

 

I seen that, most said no from the clip I seen. If that is the case, I don't think they have any business protesting the results. Apparently, they didn't give a darn who won or lost on Election day, why now?

Perhaps voting meant they would have to leave their safe zones on campus which is also no Trump zones to go into the voting booth and be forced to see Trump's name on the ballot. Seeing Trump's name would be way to much for them to handle and the college would have to counsel them for that Trauma for the next year and a half.

 

the first part I agree with (I also saw this, think was watching cnn at time)

the second part I don't.... I think many were just too lazy, did not care cause they thought Trump would not win, or were upset with Clinton cause of how Bernie was treated

but really, whatever their reason for not voting.... it really is annoying to see them protesting and then saying they did not vote.. you just have to go.... "what the heck?" lol

.

 

Yes he does:

He has a mandate to Make America Great Again.
Enforce Immigration Law.
Secure The Border

 

Maybe Trump has no mandate, but he has a pen.

 

Trump won because America wanted him to. More people in more states wanted him. He won fair and square. He will soon be your new commander in chief.

Despite how radical and unreasonable you are. You are welcome to the newer, Stronger, better America.

 

I was kind of being facetious with that last statement I made. I remember a couple of months back someone had painted "Vote Trump" or something akin to it on the sidewalk on one of our universities. It was reported that some of the students who saw that painted on then sidewalk were undergoing counseling courtesy of the university. But I do agree with you. If you didn't vote, you have no reason at all to protest the results.

According to CNN exit polls, those 18-24 year olds went for Clinton 56-34 over Trump with 10% voting for third party candidates. CNN didn't break it down any further, so how many of those 18-24 year olds were Sanders supporters, who knows?

But it is interesting to note that in 2012 Obama won that same age group 64-34. I suspect that a lot of those 18-24 year olds this year who voted third party were probably Sanders supporters peeved at Clinton and the DNC for rigging the Democratic primaries in Clinton's favor. Clinton could have used those 10% of the young ones who who voted third party.

 

wrong, more people wanted Clinton, Trump won the electoral college only.... it's not required to get the most votes.. the system is what it is... we have to accept that and move forward

Could you prove the 'rigging' by which I mean a plan executed that altered the result. I don't want to hear proof of motive, ie emails asserting a strong preference for Clinton or slamming sanders followers. I want a documented plan (in those Podesta emails or anywhere else) that was executed by sufficient and capable members of the DNC that Sanders lost states that he would otherwise not have lost. 'Rigging' suggests more than evidence of a casual and half-baked scheme that never got anywhere. I can't find a single state result that was compromised by DNC impropriety. They did not change votes, or burn them. They did not create votes out of thin air. They did not really change any rules that they controlled in midcourse just to screw one candidate over. they did lots of (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)ing and moaning and someone suggested some nasty ads about his jewish/ agnostic faith in one state

 

Its not me that needs to prove anything. It is or was the DNC and Hillary Clinton that needed to prove to Sanders supporters they didn't and Clinton ignored them. Lots of Sanders supporters stayed home and of those who went to the polls according to the exit polls, 10% voted for third party candidates and 22% for Trump. That's 32% of that voting block that didn't vote for Hillary that we know of and we can only guess at how many stayed home.

Hillary could have used their votes, she received 1.7 million less votes than Obama did in 2012 and fell 3.2 points below the percentage Obama received. Denying the DNC and Democratic leaders didn't work or make the primary process favor Hillary is like having your head in the sand or in self denial. I think one has to look no further than Sanders getting only 44 super delegates out of the 712 super delegate total. Heck, he was down 400 super delegates or more before the first vote was cast in Iowa.

 

"...Proof via the Podesta E-mails that the DNC rigged the primaries against Sanders was enough for them to say to heck with it..." let's try it this way. I am quoting your post. Not a Sanders supporters. You mention this 'proof' via podesta emails of DNC rigging, in YOUR post. I assert there is no proof of 'rigging' by the DNCin any emails, because while there is a single email suggesting a vague plan to influence a single state result, that cannot be equated with 'rigging'. There is utterly no proof of any execution of even the plan to influence let alone 'rig', and utterly no proof of a 'rigged' result in any single state. Please show me what you claim is proof of rigging.
