Morning SC.

No shock here, Whorealdo doesn’t think it any big deal.

Well, we shall see, the power of the purse is mighty.

Hi LG,

Yes, as you said, the power of the purse is mighty. I suspect many in NYC voted for Hill, so they’ll still go to the play. At least one person wrote in to F&F and said they have had tickets for months and now they don’t want to go. F&F folks have said the tickets are VERY pricey.

Whorealdo and others are talking about Jeff Sessions and some comments he apparently made 30 years ago.

General “Mad Dog” Mattis is meeting with Trump today. I couldn’t remember much about him so did a little research this a.m. He reminds me a little of Patton (even looks a little like him) - who, as you know, is one of Trump’s favorite generals. I think he’d make a great Sec of Defense.

For those like me that needed more info:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Mattis

FWIW, here’s an article from the Atlantic (not a conservative mag by any stretch) from 2010. They call his comments “Hair Raising” and I didn’t think they were:

Morning SC, thanks for the update, there is no excuse for this kind of disrespect. There should be an outpouring of calls for an apology from every corner of the Republican party.

Good morning Dolly and thanks so much for setting up this tread each week. You do a great job and are the epitome of the saying, “If you want something done and done right, give it to a busy person.”

A very busy day for our President today.

He has scheduled to meet with Gen. Mattis along with some folks I will have to read up on as I have never heard of them.

“Trump is also meeting this weekend with Mitt Romney, Michelle Rhee, Betsy DeVos, Todd Ricketts, Bob Woodson, Andy Puzder and Lew Eisenberg.”

I agree Ray!

For those that haven’t seen it, interesting thread on Jim Webb. He isn’t necessarily my cup of tea, but I think he’s more of a centrist Democrat and has a very good background. I could be wrong, but I seem to remember hearing him say he wasn’t going to vote for Hillary. I don’t see him as Sec Def, but he might be a good Ass’t one (a position he held in the past).

Will Jim Webb Be Trump’s Secretary Of Defense?

Here’s another #mattisism I didn’t see in the 16:

“Find the enemy that wants to end this experiment (in American democracy) and kill every one of them until they’re so sick of the killing that they leave us and our freedoms intact.”

He is the real deal!

From every time I have seen Jim Webb and listened to him, I wondered why he was a dim.

He has many conservatice views.

He ran for prez in the dim primary but didn’t go very far.

Might be because he doesn’t sound like a lefty.

P-I-N-G

WEEK TWO OF TRANSITION …COUNTDOWN TO INAUGURATION

PLEASE POST ON THREAD TO BE ADDED OR REMOVED FROM LIST.

COMEBACKS TO TRUMP HATERS. I received a FReep Mail from a thread participant expressing frustration with a co-worker. We all have them, no doubt, to some degree in our life. Family, co-workers, neighbors, social clubs etc. These people who incesstantly trash talk DJT. Our Deplorable mentioned this party bragging about going to DC in Jan for the walk against Trump.

What are your ideas for comebacks.. (and we know they spout off as truth all the lies the MSM has provided). Normally I just don't engage these folks. In the flight or fight scenario, I am definitely a bird.

My first thought … “Oh you don’t want to make America Great Again?”

TRUMP TOWER WEBCAM

NOTED TWO PRAYER THREADS

Prayer thread for Trump and Pence from now until Jan 20th

Prayer For President Elect Trump And His Transition Team Decisions

I was thinking the same thing. When I’ve heard him he sometimes sounds more conservative than some RINOs. I don’t think he’s a war monger like McPain or Grahmnesty.

I would give him a position a lot faster than I’d give Ayotte one!

making a statement at their local Starbucks by asking baristas to write "Trump" on their cup

The absolute best statement they could make, would be to then dump their crappy coffee in the trash and keep the cup.

("baristas" my @$$)

“What are your ideas for comebacks?”

“I’m just more comfortable with an honest President than one who would lie whenever possible. But that’s just me.”

I need the best comebacks to those who continue to feel “devastated and terrified” by President Trump’s win - because I will be among an entire family full of people like that at Thanksgiving! I LOVE THEM ALL but they are all liberals.

I have been stocking up on rebuttals but any ideas will be more than welcome.

Geraldo also called The Donald's first cabinet picks "cranky old white guys" and whined about the need of diversity...the Friends looked embarrassed for him.

Mitt Romney arriving in NYC. Waiting in a cab line at JFK? No driver?

What, Myth doesn't have his own plane and arranged ground transportation?

Times is hard Jack.
