This bears repeating, and repeating again.

I’m trying to avoid engaging in schadenfreude. Articles like this make it very difficult.

Must. Not. Laugh.

Bunch of lying POSs.

Don’t forget Bob Creamer is from Chicago and goes way back with Obama.

Creamer and his flying monkeys who hired thugs to infiltrate Trump rallies and try to start fights.

(Thanks O’Keefe, you’re a hero for uncovering that and other)

“I’d like to crack a joke. I haven’t felt this much political gloom and doom since the Reagan landslide of 1980.”

Yeah, who would want to go back to the 80’s, we were all working.

The Republicans control everything. There are no checks and balances.

The Dims controlled just as much in 2009.

Sounds like this latter-day Rip Van Winkle just woke up from a very long nap.

Chicago has always been like a blue UFO plopped down on the lake's edge in almost entirely red Illinois. The rest of Illinois hates Chicago precisely because they dominate and dictate leftist policy and onerous taxation upon them.

The entire midwest, southeast and much of the interior west has long been red, too, other than scattered large cities.

The Trump Department of Justice must investigate and prosecute Robert Creamer. As a repeat offender, this ex-felon (and his Commie Congressional Wife) deserves a long prison sentence. Maybe while he is in the can he can write another book about the repeal of Obamacare.

“They shouldn’t worry...they keep murdering each other there. Eventually, there will only be 1 person left.”


And when that one last person is left standing alone in Chicago we can hang a cardboard sign around their neck that says “It takes a village to drain a swamp.” /snort

Look at the county map of Illinois. It is almost a solid Trump Red State except for the Chicago Area. Illinois is a great example of a corrupt city having too much influence over the wholesome hardworking countryside via its idle population numbers.

Most major US cities are afraid of red state America. Did you see that Hillary got almost twice as many votes in the state of New York as did President elect Trump who was born there.

What does this mean for the press? He despises the press.>>>>>>>>>>

There likely will be new rules for the White House press corps. If they commit factual liable, they will be ejected. period.

The press corps needs newspeople, not propagandists.

You’d actually be better off giving us Maine to Delaware, in exchange for our 4 western provinces and the Yukon. Lots of resources and you get rid of 10blue states

Ben, Ben, Ben,

Move to the South Side of Chicago and get back to us in four years.

I was going to say something similar, but you said it better than I would have.
