Sorry, but I don’t care how you felt on election night. Not anymore.

Dear left wing nuts, When Obama won, us right wing Americans didn’t have a temper tantrum, threaten to succeed, call for impeachment, we decided to put our big boy pants and did our jobs. Why don’t you guys put your big boy pants on and help Americans...?

Stanford University scholar Jeff Chang emphasizes how Trump capitalizes on such emotions — “fear is the lubricant of demagoguery,” he says...

I think that the fear is purely in the eye of the beholder. I'm looking at the stock market, jobs growth, decreased illegal immigration, increased freedom--and I'm not feeling a lot of fear, here.

I wish that these people would quit talking about their subjective emotions, and instead talk about concrete policies. What policies of Trump's are we supposed to be afraid of? Which of his policies are truly troublesome, and why? If all they have to support their argument is emotion--which is notoriously manipulable--then they don't really have an argument, do they?

Yes they are fools. Greg Guttfeld had a really hilarious show last night mocking them.

I think there is a replay today...

“...‘Overwhelmed by grief.” “Brokenhearted.” “Hopeless.” “Something inside me died on Election night.” “I woke up that morning and everything felt f—ed.”
That gives me wood.

I always appreciate when a comment makes me LOL! Thanks!

I am so over their whining and rendering of garments! And the picture I saw of ‘Captain America’ (Chris Evans) wearing a t-shirt that said (paraphrase) ‘the two worst days in our history......9/11 and 11/9’ just makes me angry. They have Mueller, all poised to take Trump down on ‘trumped up’ charges.......our legal system will be turned on it’s head, just to placate the whiny Leftists. They have nearly succeeded in destroying our once great country. Please Donald, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN quickly, and the Dems power over the LIVs wil evaporate!

"Uh, that would correctly be subhuman troglodyte deplorables - and pretty damn proud of it."

Well, there it is.

The old "subhuman" thing that we know...
and love to be proud of.

“Despite months of looking, I never managed to meet a liberal New Yorker who thought of Trump supporters as anything other than an undifferentiated bloc of subhuman troglodytes,” writes Princeton University lecturer Boris Fishman...


Archie Bunker is lecturing at Princeton, who knew?

“We need to connect courageously with the rejection, the fear, the vulnerability that Trump’s victory has inflicted on us,”

"Connect courageously with the rejection, blah, bleat, blah”...

It's been around ten months since your asses got forcibly poked, (or schlonged, if you will) are you ready to come out of your mother's basement...errr... your bedroom... sorry, your SAFE SPACES yet?

The idea of you snowflakes "connecting courageously" with ANYTHING that runs counter to your neo-commie indoctrination is enough to send you into a downward spiral which you may NEVER be able to counter until you hit the bottom.

Don't worry, opiates will help the pain go away. Lots and lots of opiates. If one doesn't work, take the whole bottle.

Aw, sorry, that was mean-spirited, wasn't it?

I have had a near debilitating case of chronic Trump Grin since the election. My doctor says it will probably last 8 maybe 12 or 16 more years.

I saw a car on the freeway the other day with a “Resist” sign in a window.

As fear passes, some hope does emanate from the pages of “Radical Hope.” Writer Parnaz Foroutan addresses women who are immigrants, exiles and refu­gees in America, urging them to “pay no heed to the darkness, the open mouth of greed, the hateful speech, the walls and the guns. . . . America is yours.”

That election season was so long that I still have mornings when I wake up thinking the election is still yet to come. Then I realize the election is over and that Trump won and the outlook of the day ahead immediately improves!

During that long election cycle, I always had the sense that this election, unlike so many others before it, would have a positive outcome. But I was always steeled for another disappointment.

I remember taking off work a little early on Election Day and walking the streets of NYC, from my office near Trump Tower all the way to the Javits on 34th (where Hillary was preparing for her "victory" party) and then back up through Times Square, past the Hilton (where Trump was preparing for his) and over to Grand Central where I took the train home. When I got home, it was around 7:30 and everybody here was nervous with some of us already throwing in the towel!

Around 9:30, we all began to realize that a Trump victory was going to happen for real. The next six hours were like nothing I ever experienced. I went through an enormous amount of (celebratory) alcoholic beverages and several pounds of shelled peanuts that I ate constantly through the night. I had to vacuum the floor of peanut shells on and around the recliner I was in. But I never felt drunk. Just happy. I got exactly one hour of sleep and was on the train back to Manhattan at six in the morning. My only regret was that I didn't stay in NYC the entire night, standing outside FoxNews HQ watching the results on the big screen with the hundreds of other Trump maniacs out there! Then seeing the triumphant Trump motorcade pulling into the Hilton for the victory speech. That would have been quite the experience.

"an undifferentiated bloc of subhuman troglodytes,”

Wow. And they think that the epithet "libtard" is hateful?

I’m always amazed at the self-superiority of the Clinton voters who think we are uneducated, uncouth idiots. Well, the majority of her vote came in from places like Philadelphia (84 percent margin), Detroit (92 percent margin), New Orleans (80 percent margin) and other cities with a ton of crime and welfare caseloads. Somehow, I never thought of the majority of residents of those and other cities, whatever their race or ethnic background, as possessing great educations, being knowledgeable on politics and current affairs, talking eloquently, or speaking of Kant, Freud or Beethoven. Perhaps I missed something when I was driving through Newark the other day.

And if they think their war against the President’s supporters, waged mainly by their media and judicial branches, is going to succeed, they are fools.

They are doing a pretty good job so far.

We have a neutered Attorney General. The man is worm. A coward. A selfish fiasco.

Paul "Insider-Trading-King-Cut-The-Pensions-Of-Disabled-Veterans" Ryan in charge of House, doing everthing he can do destroy the President's agenda.

And Mitch "I Am Not Gay" McConnell.

Between the Podesta/Hillary/Deep State Satanists, the corrupt GOPe "Congress", and the Atheist/Communist/Evil Media, I wonder how much longer we have.
