Trump Scores a Victory Today That Obama Would Have Never Gotten [A progressive says this]
Young Turks ^ | 11/30/2016 | Cenk Uygur

Posted on 11/30/2016 10:47:58 PM PST by Vince Ferrer

First, some background. I first noticed Cenk Uygur on election night, as I enjoyed watching the "lamentations of their women" videos on YouTube when they realized Trump had won. He had an epic meltdown which I have watched about five times already:

(26 minutes, and profanities, but good) The Young Turks Election Day Meltdown 2016

It's important to keep in mind that he is as progressive as they come, but he also has more of an open mind than other progressives. In fact, he came pretty close to understanding the real mood of the public.

Cenk Uygur Predicted Donald Trump's 2016 Presidency Months Ago, July 2016

So considering all that, here is what he has to say about the Trump Carrier deal:

I am not turning into a Cenk Uygur fan or anything, but I think this is an interesting video. What it means to me is that there are still a lot of people out there in the great lakes region, the Midwest, even New Mexico, that Trump can still reach, and continue building the party. He won't win all the time, but if people see him fighting for them, he can win a lot of people over.

Cenk can be interesting at times, even entertaining. He has a good camera presence, once you accept how he looks.
Maybe one day soon, Cenk will cross over and become a conservative like ‘Special Ed Schultz’ did for a while.

No thanks

Watching the other side trying to spin their way out of reality ain’t even amusing

I’ve also watched the election night meltdown 3 times thus far. How does he pronounce his name? I’ve never heard it spoken.

If Trump makes noticeable improvements in American jobs he will tilt MI, WI, OH, PA to the GOP for at least 2020 and 2024....until some milquetoast republican screws it up. His margins will grow in those states. I suspect MN will tighten as well.

Interesting to observe the Dem reaction to all of this. They lost everything because they are completely out of touch with the mid-western white voters. Then they crap all over Donald Trump for saving all those mid-western jobs and then they elect San Fran Nan as their leader over Ohio Representative Tim Ryan. they have acknowledged that they are out of touch with folks in flyover country and then shit all over the man that just save those folk’s jobs and then they reelected the antithesis of midwestern values to guide their party forward. They are incapable of changing. They’re stuck on stupid. At this rate, I think we can expect Trump to get two terms. keep it up Dems.

Watched the video. The Turk gave credit to Trump and whipped the RATs.
Major corporations won’t say it. But there is going to be a stampede
of jobs from Metico back to the US.
Trump does not fool around. He will be feared by these globalist.

That good news!

Now, can Staten Island become a part of Texas or do all parts of a state have to touch? :)

Some parts of states are separated by water!! :)

Just think of the Italian/Southern food exchanges. Or combinations!! We could get rich!

Without the other marks I can’t tell for sure but if Turkish, which it looks to be, I would say either Chenk or Jenk Weegur. The ‘g’ can be either like a hard g in English or it can be barely pronounced and mostly serve to separate the ‘ee’ from the ‘u’ into two separate syllables.

Which is your favorite character/moment? There are so many it’s hard to pick. One of mine is when the Angry Latina is calling Trump a pedophile, and then Squirrely Guy on the left informs her the case was dropped. “You don’t roll up on us like that.”

Mine is when he says he wants to start talking to those of us hiding in the hinterland clinging to our religion and guns with antipathy to those who are different than us, that at first, the language is going to be rough, but on this barnburning tour, he and the rest of his posse are ‘going to talk to’ us. Just the thought of being a beneficiary of Cenk’s erudition has me randombly chuckling through the day.

My favorite character is that dweeb on the left side of the screen who makes the declaration of ignorance that the founders all died in their 40s in the midst of calling which states have fallen for Trump.

Nancy pants Linda Graham and his buddy John McStain practically already want to impeach Trump and that's just for winning the election and saying mean things about illegals.

“We have to go these people and talk to them in their language”, like he’s talking about some aboriginal tribe untouched by civilization before. Maybe when he re-enlists, he’ll teach us baseball.

= = = = = = = = = = = = =
Almost feel sorry for Mexico... NOT...
The jobs etc WE have down there and the leeches that are up here - (NOT all are ‘bad’) shipped back.
Lets see.. We will ‘force’ all US companies back in US and to make room for them, We will return all (or the worst of the lot) those that crossed over the Mex-US border back to you. You are free to handle the Middle Easterners, Central and South Americans as you see fit.
It would be a ‘double hit’ on Mexico.

In a very big sense - have to think in proper mode - Trump did offer Mexico an ‘olive branch’ and they ALL told him to shove them olive branches where the sun don’t shine.

Remember the old saying about newspapers..

Silly to pick a fight with someone who buys ink by the carload.

PAYBACKS ARE HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH, I wish they would knock on my door trying to talk some "sense" in to me. LOL

That last libtard that tried that I had them running down the street while I was still yelling at him the truth of what he believes is one big failure for this country. They definitely don't care for reality. I'm sure that was comical for the neighbors to watch as I run that libtard off.

Too bad he didn't go into on of his rants, and the TSA had to taser his ass so we could see that ;-)
