As the country awakes bleary-eyed and disoriented, we are certain that the lights will come up, the horror film will end and all will be put back to normal. The alt-right will go lick its wounds, the lying opportunists will be banished and sanity will have prevailed, right? No, not this time.

In summation...

Trump destroyed the Bush Dynasty, The Clinton Dynasty, The RINO’s in the republican party, PC nonsense, The liberal press, the pundents, the pollsters, and the New World Order all in one fell swoop !

Heck this is about more than Making America Great Again, Trump just may make Western Civilization Great Again

#NeverTrumpers are full of chit.

Jennifer Rubin can go do with herself what she wants.

She and her cretinous ilk lost.

“We know “our” America well”

This is the biggest lie of all her lies. She and the punditocracy has no clue.

And therefore they have been wrong, in this entire election cycle, every step of the way.”

Even after the electro-shock therapy that was last night, the liberal elite continue to stumble through the blindness of their self delusional bubble.

Hello in there, Jennifer. What color is the sky in your world?
