Someone help me out, I may be wrong, but why isn't the media APPLAUDING the history-making night?!
Seems to me that Donald Trump is the VERY FIRST MAJOR PARTY NOMINEE who was born in Queens New York!!
Historical moment. All the media wants to talk about Hillary having 2 x chromosomes.
First major Party nominee to never have held any elected government office! That is the most historic part of the entire election.
A certain former star of such hit shows as Death Valley Days and General Electric Theater says "I don't think so, bub!"
If you can add any facts about Trump being the first _____ in a major nominee, post here!
I thought he was film. ;)
Even Joe Scarborough has turned on him.
Real Americans know this is the perfect storm...and America will experience a resurgence like never before.
He was a man who wore many, many hats. Movie star, TV star, baseball broadcaster, union head, the list goes on and on!
Therefore this historic angle is nonsense. Most presidents have wives. Virtually all of them unknown nationally as their husbands begin campaigning.She didn't build that.
I agree with you and it should be a sign to those in the republican party that we are fed up with the likes of Mccain, Graham and Ryan.
QUEENS!!! only 40 minutes away :)
Also worked down the block from Trump Towers for years.
I could say i worked on the same block as the president :)
if fraud doesn’t take this from us.
i’m VERY concerned after this TWENTY FIVE point lead hillary has in CA!!
if the count is rigged, what do we do ahead of time to fight it?
>> First major Party nominee to never have held any elected government office <<
Sure. The party that nominated D. W. Eisenhower, Wendle Wilkie and U. S. Grant was not “major” in any meaningful sense. Nor was the party that nominated Zachary Taylor.
first to own and/or have tall buildings named for him:

Construction of each one of these represents more genuine accomplishment than Shrillary has achieved in her lifetime.
More Historic- A Former WalMart board member secured the nomination for President of the Democrat party. A party that traditonally hates big business and Walmart especially.
Former first lady Barbara Bush was born in Queens too.
Ditto for U.S. Grant back in the 1860s who was the "Supreme Commander" of the Civil War.
I don't know much about Wendle Wilkie and Zachary Taylor. Maybe you have a point there.
I look at this with this in mind:
Trump is the first ‘non politician’ to win a National Party Nominee position;
Trump is the first person, in years, where there are no super packs, special interests groups backing him;
Trump is the first ever candidate to bring in over 4 million new voters, some of who have never voted before in their lives, to the R party;
Trump is the only person who has built his own company, from the ground up and is world known and a billionaire and associates with the American Working Class people;
Trump is the first candidate ever to fill large stadiums and arenas with thousands and thousands of people to hear his message;
So if history was ever made, it was made last night, by Donald John Trump, the next President of the United States of America, FOR the PEOPLE; BY the PEOPLE and OF the PEOPLE!!!
I stand corrected.
But on the bright side, at least 75% of them where elected President. Here is hoping the average is 80% come November.
Scarborough was never for him. Scarborough has a history of pretend support for the Republican nominee and then turning on them as the general election approaches. It’s his MO. It’s how he collects an MSNBC paycheck.
Trump is a Gemini born in Queens.
I’m a Gemini born in Queens.
I so get this guy !!!
You know folks, the crowning of Hillary Clinton as the Democrat Party, POTUS nominee & the first woman ever, to run as a female POTUS candidate in the history of our country!!! This was a major historic moment in the history of the USA. But...it received only a light smattering of publicity across the country...mainly because, Hillary Clinton is a very weak, flawed, criminal candidate, across the board. She is not liked, honored, or respected widely!!!
Last night, prior to her boring, monotine, badly delivered speech, she looked like an aging overweight Grandma that has been eating and drinking, non-stop!!! And...to boot, her rally attendees looked and acted, like a bunch of street urchins, that might have paid to fill seats in a political rally where they were coached when to applaud or when to remain quiet!!! What a weird gathering of freak american citizens. I guess old Hillary Clinton cannot muster a decent crowd, without greasing the table!! Go Figure...folks!!!
