But I know this as well: Trump was elected President on November 8.

But he is not my president and he never will be.

[jch10]

Oh yes, he is!

[chimera]

The guy hasn't even taken office yet and already he is accused of violating the Constitution. Geez, I mean, all he has done is run a campaign. He hasn't broken any laws, hasn't set in motion any constitutional crisis (unlike Bill Clinton),hasn't exceeded executive authority with EOs that circumvent Congress. Yet they are already trying to bury him.

I guess this is a free country and you can live in denial that Trump is not president and the 2016 election never happened. I’ll reserve judgement about the state of your mental health. Trump did not seize power in a coup or by massive voter fraud in a razor thin election. He was elected in a clear and open election by the due process in our Constitution and Hillary was not. You may not like the result, many of us didn’t like the last eight years of Obama either, but Trump is POTUS so get on with it. I thought the 2000 election was bad with years of bellyaching about Bush being illegitimately elected, but you could see at least see a little point about the sour grapes in such a tight election. The 2016 election had a clear and undeniable winner and it wasn’t Hillary so quit the hand wringing.

Garrett, your butthurt makes me feel warm and fuzzy.

This guy clearly knows nothing of the Constitution. Donald Trump was not elected President on November 8th. Donald Trump will be elected President on December 19th by the Electoral College, and not a moment too soon.

I am most curious; who will be your president? Name only please; skip the platitudes.

The five stages, denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance are a part of the framework that makes up our learning to live with the one we lost. They are tools to help us frame and identify what we may be feeling. But they are not stops on some linear timeline in grief.

Denial: "Trump is not my President". Anger: Anti Trump riots in dark blue Democrat areas. Bargaining: Recounts in PA, WI, and MI (<-We are here) Depression: _____________________ Acceptance: ___________________

What a beady-eyed looking weasel.

[Twinkie]

What kind of gun is he shooting? It looks like my antique
Smith & Wesson revolver from 1900 that still fires like a
dream.

Taxpayers pay his salary?

[hal ogen]

Professors get paid by taxpayers at public schools either directly or indirectly.

Did you read my post?

Your reply to mine, seems to indicate that you may be a Hillary supporter, who thinks the election will be overturned?

President Elect Trump will hopefully followup on all his promises and rectify all that the Muslim-in -

[tdscpa]

Yes, I read it. Sorry I did not adequately explain my comment. It was meant as just a suggested addition to your post.

[NTHockey]

The difference between you and this guy is that he would resort to violence, as a FIRST option, in order to make his wish come true.

I don’t know you but the President is still in office suggests that violence is NOT your first option.

Judging by Garrett’s picture, he looks like he could be a member of NAMBLA
