So, Trump won the election. Efforts to sway the Electoral College failed. The military hasn’t toppled him. Calls for his assassination have fallen on deaf ears. Mass temper tantrums haven’t caused him to run for the hills. So he should just resign.

No — I did not read more than the excerpt. The writer needs to get to the frigging point.

He was fairly elected by we, the people. He will resign when we say so.

Sit down and shut up.

One of the latest comments: “Bryan G. Stephens
No GOP president should ever again resign. No Democrat ever would. When you are at war, don’t side line Patton because he hit a soldier.”

Let’s see many called for Trump to pack it in throughout the campaign and Trump continued on regardless. He doesn’t flinch when the going gets tough. I hope things calm down a bit as time goes on but likely not. Trump will still persevere. He won certainly as a result of that. He is also resourceful and will deal with every problem that comes up in his own way.

The commie book behind him in picture is The People’s Welfare.

Here is the Amazon exerpt:

Much of today’s political rhetoric decries the welfare state and our maze of government regulations. Critics hark back to a time before the state intervened so directly in citizens’ lives. In The People’s Welfare, William Novak refutes this vision of a stateless past by documenting America’s long history of government regulation in the areas of public safety, political economy, public property, morality, and public health. Challenging the myth of American individualism, Novak recovers a distinctive nineteenth-century commitment to shared obligations and public duties in a well-regulated society. Novak explores the by-laws, ordinances, statutes, and common law restrictions that regulated almost every aspect of America’s society and economy, including fire regulations, inspection and licensing rules, fair marketplace laws, the moral policing of prostitution and drunkenness, and health and sanitary codes. Based on a reading of more than one thousand court cases in addition to the leading legal and political texts of the nineteenth century, The People’s Welfare demonstrates the deep roots of regulation in America and offers a startling reinterpretation of the history of American governance.

This guy is actually one of the smartest people I have ever met—I was seated next to him at a dinner once. And I thought he was a conservative, at least once upon a time he was. But boy is he off the deep end now.

Good catch.

I couldn’t stand to look at his ugly mug long enough to study the background.

Small sized on the original page, it became hideously large when copied.

My apologies to all. (heh)

” ...I stand in opposition to both groups.”
*******
In politics, the perfect can be the enemy of the good. Your failure to support Trump was actually helping Hillary. Unlike you, most supporters of Trump’s more conservative opponents in the primary, men like Walker and Cruz, are probably thanking God that Trump is leading us rather than Hillary.

In other words, Trump should resign because liberals hate him.

“330 comments at the source.”

How are they trending? Approving of the author’s opinion or disapproving? I do NOT want to dignify it with a “click” ! ;)

>>Hillary Clinton garnered a clear majority of the popular vote.
******************************************************
Right there is the point where I stop reading.
It is clear that HRC did NOT win the legitimate popular vote, not by a long shot. This has been pointed out time and again. Dead, multiple, illegal invader votes, and Soros machinations don’t count. DJT won by millions.

I really think it’s past “talking” time. We are a hair’s breath away from another phase.

Time for Epstein to get used to Trump punching him in the mouth every day for the next eight years. Just like Obama did us. Difference is Obama is a wimp. Trump isn’t. And it’s gonna huuurt.
