Well, unlike liberals, conservatives don’t physically or emotionally attack people with whom they disagree.

Build a wall around it and leave them to devour each other.

Only Suckers Beef. Go suck your thumb in the corner. As Trump’s predecessor said: “I won. Elections have consequences.”

Chicago - the colostomy bag of Illinois.

Maybe Commander-In-Chief Trump could call up the National Guard,station them in Chicago,and cut the murder rate by two-thirds overnight.

The old reputation of being a war torn battleground still applies, too.

Being the murder capital of America isn’t a frightening reality. Being a financial basket case isn’t a frightening reality. Having massive unfunded pension liabilities isn’t a frightening reality. But being a “blue” city in a “sea of red” is.

not to worry, Chicago. with your ‘gun control laws’... you are rapidly eliminating your population (at least, you’re eliminating all your good people...obviously your gangsters and thugs and IslamONazi terrorists will all stay heavily armed... all you’re doing is interferring with the ability of your good honest citizens to defend themeselves...which transforms ChiTown into one big Free Fire Zone for the criminals and Moslem enemy)

give it a few more years and your Island in the middle of America will get smaller and smaller and smaller and soon will sink (or capsize?) and that will be that.

meawhile, anyone with any good sense is avoiding spending any time in your once-great city.

If Trump takes quick action to shut down the street shootings and killings in Chicago he can steal the Chicago black vote from the democrats.

His supporters joke about lynching reporters.

Oh, that was a joke?

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

Nope. Republicans do not have a Super Majority but, we do have a majority. For many issues, the Democrats can filibuster. Still, for others, Republicans only need a simple majority.

Trump will fill Scalia's vacancy and all the judicial vacancies.

Yes he will and at least two other seats by simple majority which, Republicans control.

What does this mean for the press? He despises the press. His supporters joke about lynching reporters.

Trump is the most savvy person when it comes to the press and he actually likes them and he can play them. No one is going to be lynched.

I get a text from my Bernie bro telling me that Trumpsters are jubilant.

We should be excited and Jubilant. If you won, you would be as well.

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

Really? Seems to me the United States flourished through Reagan, the world was finally freed of the USSR and many concentration camps, operating as Soviet Satellite States, were finally freed.

But this may be worse. Reagan at least offered hope.

I feel hopeful.

Trump is dark and mean and foreboding. Always talking about locking people up. Or beating them up. Or investigating his opponents and punishing his enemies.

You fear someone who will take no guff from anyone. You wanted some pushover. That's gotta be tough.

Chicago is a blue island in a red state

The difference is they (and the rest of the suffering state) now have to live with the consequences of their actions. There won't be a bailout from the Trump administration.

Not to worry - if we're joking we'll let you know first.

Which we didn't.
