So you think you are a winner with Trump being elected president?  LOL.

Believing in the winning team and being on the winning team are two different things.

 

That's loser speak.  You do it well though so don't give up.  Never give up......loser!   :)

See that's the funny thing in a democracy we're encouraged to exercise our rights of free speech especially when we see the government is making bad decisions.

It's called being an engaged and responsible citizen.

And since I've been an equal critic of Clinton (both), W, Obama and Trump I hardly see calling out Trump's ignorant actions as anything but showing concern.

I wish I could say I can't wait for the revolt in 2 years when the Trump supporters get pissed because he abandoned them. But this is going to be very bad for the entire country so it's not something I really wish for.

The Pottery Barn rule applies just as much to Trump and those who enabled him as it did to previous presidencies.  You own this.

Yes I do.  Trump Train.  wooooooot wooooooot.

was gonna refinance the house and decided to wait because we were then looking to sell... interests rates are now 4.5! Its all Trumps fault! They were low 3's only a few months ago. Im moving to Canada.

I love you man!  Passive aggressive and these nimrods don't even see it.    I wish those that really said that would pack their shit and go though.  That would already be more good than Obama and the piece of shit liberals have done in 50 years.  Lotta butthurt going on here.  lol

When you were being a genuine asshole it was at least amusing during the election, now you're trying too hard and it just comes across as fake.

Keep tri-winning!  

Your hurtful loser speak does not bother me loser.  Comes across as fake because I could really give a shit about politics.  I just love irritating know it all but do nothings like yourself.  Every time you reply I rejoice knowing I made a tear well up in one of those little beady eyes of yours.

 

PS-  You still want to see my saggy sack?  PM me and I will send you another picture.  Try not to "stain" this one.

So are you having a serious discussion, or shitposting? Because if it's the latter, keep the discussion civil.

What bothers us all is how unoriginal your shit talking has become.  It's OK to put on the costume for Halloween, but when you are still wearing it months later you've become creepy and pathetic.

You don't walk in anyone's shoes but your own.  Your son, my daughter, and my son deserve a future better than ours.

Everything Trump has said, and who has has appointed to assist him points to not thinking long term about any decisions he is going to make.

As usual you dismiss the original poster because it doesn't fit your agenda.  You somehow missed the part here he called me an asshole huh?  lol  You are truly a joke as a moderator.  I realize that it is all you have in your pathetic life though so I give you a pass.  Oh and trump train.   wooooot woooooot.

:laugh: is this thread done yet, or are we waiting for inauguration?

It will go past that.   Life goes on either way and always has after any election so I would say people have gone a bit overboard on the whining.  It's more of a bandwagon thing now, it's fine with me as I find it entertaining.

I find his  appointments anything but entertaining. 

 

I find his personal bafonary entertaining. 

Really?  It's the same shit that's been going on for decades and he's following party lines with his appointments.  If Hillary were in the same position her appointments would follow her party lines, nothing unusual is going on and for the most part, half of the general population isn't going to like who is appointed.  That goes back to what I originally said, life goes on after any election.  

As far as his buffoonery goes I could care less.  For every action there's an equal and opposite reaction, the Democratic party let the progressives go a little too far, forgot about labor and a lot of the population didn't go for it.   When you have Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania turn red it isn't time to get pissed at the Republican candidate, it's time to look within the party to see what the hell went wrong to lose those states that were always blue.   That's the reason I find all the whining so entertaining, everybody whines but nobody questions what the democratic party did wrong.  

Progressive values mean nothing to the guy in the Midwest that once had a nice middle class living and now has nothing.  That's one of the ways they fucked it up, not every democrat is necessarily left leaning and they completely ignored that fact.  

I've been union for 20 years along with a lot of people in this part of the country, for the first time ever a lot of unions declined to endorse the Democratic candidate this time around.  That is a lot of votes and that was a shitload of votes lost, just a sliver in the scheme of things but it didn't help her cause.  It's funny how the media doesn't bring little things like that up.

That's a false narrative that 'nobody questions' what the DNC did wrong. A lot of liberal leaning people felt the DNC did some things wrong. Particularly colluding to put Hillary ahead of Bernie. 

Progressive values might have value to the guy in the midwest, just different. If he's got 'nothing', it might be nice to have some healthcare, unemployment, or a food stamp card. Healthcare is a huge (I think #1?) cause of personal bankruptcy in the US. But he thinks that's wrong for the government to do. Government should be small. Instead, they definitely should also be responsible for putting him back in a job.

What you're describing is the polarization. Which is really the core problem. People are thinking less independently, and more tribal. Instead of deciding whether something is good, they prioritize if it fits their party view. Both sides have become more extreme.

That's exactly what I was talking about when I say they got it wrong.  Unemployment and food stamps have always been a given, we're talking about a guy that had a good job WITH health insurance. He doesn't want Obamacare.    I'm talking about the push for equality, immigration, etc.  That's all great stuff but does nothing to better the situation of why this guy no longer has that job and when his situation sucks he really doesn't give a shit about that stuff and that's the last thing he wants to hear about. When he's making $14/hr when he once made $30 that stuff means nothing to him.  Nobody from that side came into the Midwest and said "we're going to improve this and bring your jobs back".  NAFTA is still a dirty word around here and they couldn't shake that, at the same time that wasn't addressed by her, at least properly.  

Shit like that is regional.  What goes on the west coast is completely different in other areas.  That was ignored or at the minimum not addressed properly.  

You are 100% correct about the point on polarization and people having the tribal mindset.  Having a team mentality does zero for a given individual yet they go for it anyway.  I'm not liberal by definition and don't consider myself that, but my actions (charity, community service, etc) would say I am, while many people who identify as liberal are only that way in mindset while actually doing nothing of the sort.  

Shit sure is strange.
