Poor Obama failed again. Over the next eight years all his damage will be undone.

Another outbreak of racism on the part of the warmongering Trump administration!

Notice that Trump isn't standing around playing defense like Republicans have done for the last 30 years.

He's getting his agenda done, and the Left can't keep up.

Pretty soon, they're going to be out of gas, and then more people will come to the conclusion that Trump really is working for the people and getting things done, and that will make the Left more isolated and deranged.

Best election ever! Trump is doing exactly what he said he’d do. Got to love it!

The LEFTists have got to be spinning like tops right now - and everyday I wake up, and go to bed, there so much more winning going on :)

Not all of his damage can be undone. His Islamic terrorist pals in the US are waiting for orders to unleash blood and destruction in us.

[FreeAtlanta]

At this rate, a huge portion of it will be undone by the end of spring. :-D

Considering the level of crazy that's been going on in opposition to that project, they may have to send in the Army infantry to protect the construction itself.

Democrats will put on their knitted pink pussy-hats and stamp their feet in collective anger!

It has been pretty silly, but I have a feeling they might just send in a few paddywagons and the rest of the paid protestors might decide it no longer makes economic sense.

[Logical me]

Very good news. This blockage by the Indians was a real joke. More communists liberal BS.

[shoff]

I guess the “Indians” will not be getting a cut of the oil bypassing their land.That’s what this fight was all about.
