    Trump won. He won through lying, making false accusations, and not saying anything about what he will do, only complaining and whining about everyone else. This is a man who spent years lying about a birth certificate.

    Well, as President, you don't get to be a whining baby. You are in charge and have to make decisions. After the country, including the people who voted for Trump, see the decisions he makes, and the results of those decisions.... people will be begging for someone other than Trump.

    I personally even wonder if he will get his own party's nomination at the end of 4 years for a second term. But I would not bet against that one. But I will bet he doesn't win a second term. I was about to say you can't lie you way through a presidency... but then again, we already have had WMD Bush, so I guess you can.

    Hopefully, these sour grape topics will die a quick death. :roll:

    You're projecting failure 2 months before he even takes the oath of office. He might crash and burn as your Chicken Little post makes clear, but at least we have someone who will actually try to make a difference. Hillary was DOA if she had become President. We would have had a guaranteed 4 years of continued gridlock and no accomplishments. At least there is a chance for progress now. In 4 years if he fails, have at it. But at least give the guy a chance.

    Remember these words "High crimes and Misdemeanors".

    He does go to court later this month.

    Good lord... President Pence. I'm not sure who's worse. There's a pretty good chance that Donald will revert to his former progressive stances on certain topics but Pence is a POS that should've never been allowed close to the presidency.

    I am thoroughly enjoying the left's temper tantrum. Thanks!

    They've been wrong about everything this election cycle. Why would we listen to them now?

    Same song, verse 47,673,000 as sung by pollsters, media heads, pundits, and fools in this election. Some people can't read the handwriting on the wall, no matter how big the type...

    Take a "Reality Pill".
    Trump did not win as much as Hillary lost.
    Stealing the party central committee is what bothered Moi the most.
    Sanders as a victim was asking me to be a victim too. Most Sanders people did not do so.
    I voted Trump to punish the Democratic Party as I voted NIXON in '68.
    I hold the Democratic Party to higher standards of truthiness than the Inc. supporting GOP.
    And similar to 1968, the Democratic Party failed to live up to those higher standards and deserves a major,
    "Time Out" and reevaluate its' representation of Main St. over Wall St.

    As long as he's able to appoint 3 or 4 supreme court justices before they run him out of office we can take a collective deep breath. Can you imagine a court packed with Hillary's pals?

    well one dumb unnamed candidate ran a whole campaign on "Trump is Unfit" when it was, "The economy stupid."
    Congratulations on her stupidity.

    He's the Vice President now :)

    He'll keep Trump on the straight and narrow. Don't worry about that :)

    I hope he picks the youngest available judges he can find and they stay on for 30-40 years.

    The republicans had already decided on a strategy of obstruction two months before Obama took office. Heck they had already said they would block supreme court justices for the next four years already. So you can say I am not giving the guy a chance, but that is hypocritical for a republican. And I did already give the guy a chance. And what I saw when I looked at him was a guy who has been proven as a fact that he steals from charity, sexually assaults women, cheats on his multiple wives and lies to cheat people out of their money as a snake oil salesman. You can feel optimistic that he will be a good president, but I highly doubt it. Leopards don't change their spots.

    And unfortunately President Pence is what we just got. Kasich said Trump offered him the VP and said he would basically delegate the Presidency to him. Just like an inexperienced Bush was manipulated by Cheney, Trump will have Pence with his hand up his butt making him talk.

    You do know that Hillary got more votes, just not electorial votes. So Trump winning is because the system being rigged, just for him instead of against him.

    Actually it was, "I hate the government, stupid". Polling shows anger at government was the driving factor. Trump is the "outsider" who is going to rip it all down. The economy has been doing very well actually. Democrats ran the ultimate insider when it was a "government is bad" feeling populace. Republicans and their media outlets have been very good at spending 8 years claiming government is the problem. That is why Trump won the republican primaries and why Trump won the Presidency, he is an outsider unstained by the stench of having experience.

    he will get a second term because he ran on freedom, people don't like paying for obama care, losing their second amendment, and losing their economic opportunity here and overseas to foreigners for profits to the rich most of all.

    the republican and democratic establishment will continue to follow, not lead we the people.

    He won because the Democrats ran Hillary.

    The Obama whined and cried about GWB for 8 years - where were you?

    Trump spoke truth to power, as did Bernie Sanders. It's frightening that Killary did so well in spite of that and in spite of her obvious lies and treachery.

    Hmm.... seems that you forgot all about those high crimes and misdemeanors for Obama and Hillary..... Then again, the new administration may adjust that with a RICO investigation and a reopening of the Fast and Furious, Benghazi, IRS. Emails and Veteran's Administration investigations. If so, how many Progressive heads will roll?

    Trump will not be bullied by the republicans like pence, he didn't even agree with him in his presidential debate openly.

    As long as he isn't talked into appointing religious conservatives who will roll back the interpretation of the Constitution a hundred years. I rather like having religious freedom, and think that everyone should have the same rights.

    What really worries me is the people who would use the power of government to enforce their religious views on everyone else. And some of those people would really like to see the makeup of SCOTUS change.

    So let us hope that Trump is not interested in nominating anyone like that, despite whatever he said to get elected.

    As Trump lets down his radical base by ignoring almost ALL of his promises, they'll probably be the angriest. They want change and they'll get none.
