    Finally here and thank god we are not celebrating the election of Hillary Clinton!

    I'm sure every thing Trump does will be blasted on the Lamestream media and the Hollywood elite will cry and cry over everything as well.

    I'm very interested to see how the Congress and the President work towards truly making America great again.

    While Obama goes off and makes himself super rich on the rubber chicken circuit, where he can do no more harm to the country.

    The election results show that the lamestream media and Hollywood have lost their influence on those that have more than half a brain. Between the assholes in the streets and the rantings of CNN and the crew, the middle American voters see how unamerican they really are.

    I would say the mainstream media truly has lost it's influence on those with only half a brain. :wink:

    The conservative blogs and entertainment media are having a field day however with their version of "the truth".... LOL

    Hey Dave in 4 years where do you expect to be, worse off or better off? Will Trump syphon off all the money in the country to his rich friends and family and there will soup lines again, massive unemployment?

    I keep hearing the various TV guys refer to Biden as Dr. Joe Biden, when the hell did that start. I know he's a lawyer and they all have Juris Doctorates these days but I don't know a single lawyer who refers to himself as Dr. Joe Lawyer.

    Don't lose view of what today is really about, and it's spectacular.

    The peaceful transition of power from one to another. It's a remarkable feat and it's something that should always be celebrated.

    In 4 years I hope to be much better off and extremely happy with the prospect of 4 more years with The Donald.

    However.... I have lots of doubts and concerns that is going to happen.

    But I agree with Corey that it is pretty cool to see the American Democracy at work today.....

    Pretty tame inauguration compared to some in the past. Lincoln had to sneak into Washington in the middle of the night for his first and his VP gave a speech while drunk at the second. Andrew Jackson's rowdy, celebratory supporters ransacked the WH forcing Old Hickory to exit the WH through a bedroon window.

    I think the constant threats of violence and disruption from the left had something to do with the subdued day. Also, let's face it, this guy was elected with no establishment support whatsoever from either party or Congress in general. The media treated him like a circus clown throughout.

    So what happens? He vanquishes 17 Republicans and the seemingly invincible Hillary. The media and Hollywood are chowing down on an enormous shitburger and Trump gave an 18 minute address today where he enunciated his feelings as clear as a bell without regard to the politicians feelings.

    This guy is not messing around.

    those are pretty good.

    So as I see it Spicer the press secretary is strictly doing the bidding of his boss Trump.

    This preoccupation with the numbers of people at the inauguration and the big deal that Spicer was making of it is not Spicer's idea... it doesn't get under anyone's skin but The Donald obviously.... because that's who he is.

    I think going forward Trump will find many more "horrible and terrible" things going on in this country that "only he can fix" so he won't have time for such nonsense.

    Here's the thing.

    1. George is on point.
    2. If Trump is so easily led and distracted, how in the hell did you guys lose to him? That should really bother you because
    a. He is easily led
    b. He is easily distracted
    c. Additionally, he's predictable.

    So you had an opponent that you could lead in any direction that you wanted, and you could lead him to defeat. Say what you want to say about Trump, and I could say a lot, but the problem here is still you. You couldn't beat that.

    Corey.... Trump is probably all of those things you list.

    He is also masterful however at deflecting the truth and in his use of alternative facts.

    If an apple being red somehow reflected negatively on The Donald he would probably deny it was ever red in the first place.... and that no red apples actually existed but that the world was chock full of yellow ones.

    He would ask loudly..... " have you seen all of those yellow apples?".....
