A funny thought crossed my mind, both Drudge and FreeRepublic have not changed a thing since I found them back in the mid nineties as far as format and or how they run their sites. I would say both of them have had a tremendous impact in their own way. If Trump builds the wall, it is because back in 2006 the Republican congress made it a law because of tremendous backlash and pressure from groups like the Freepers fighting amnesty every step of the way under Bush Jr. We forget stuff like that, but the archives of this site will be a treasure trove for future historians.

I personally think Trump is going to blow the DC establishments minds in how fast he gets down to business. He owes them nothing and he is a 70 year old billionaire with a chip on his shoulder. I truly hope we get sick of winning.

I think the getting sick of winning is partly metaphorical, partly an insight into human nature.

Could it be we just didn’t WANT to win, because the effort required, even with a perfect leadership, seemed to be too massive to embrace? That rather than winning, we just wanted to be Deplorable Group 1 vs. Deplorable Group 2, and now our worlds were very simple?

Part of winning will be negotiating.
