Election 2016 (Page 62)

I guess the best private school New York has to offer isn't doing much better.  (from the 2012 election)

It doesn't matter......Trump won. 

Yep. I really hope he ends up being the president Tony thinks he can be, and not the one I think he'll be.

He did start a revolution and was quite successful the last I checked.  There's more than one way to have a revolution.  

Don't you see, all these protesters are just following our new president's lead! He told us four years ago the phony electoral college was rigged system and we need to revolt against it. But no one listened, so he went out and proved it. LOL

I'm still hoping as well.  I think it was Newt who said he needs to act and act fast before he gets sucked under in the swamp himself.

I am glad that his top three agenda items of tax cuts, healthcare, and immigration.  I'd be falling out of my chair if the Repubs tried pushing in some sweeping social legislation at this point.  

Did you by chance watch the 60 minutes interview last night?  He was asked about the electoral college statements in the past.  I did have to give it to him though he stayed consistent and said he still doesn't like it, even though he won under it. 

I think I mentioned it previously, but the way you impact change in a representative democracy is you get people elected to office or run yourself.  You can say all you want about the Tea Party, but they went out and have been getting people elected to offices at every level since they came to be.  BLM, Occupy Wallstreet, etc. are still just protesting and whining. 

That idiot couldn't be secretary of a day care.

You know you want her.   

I don't want her in any administration positions either, but I do still have a secret crush on her.  I can't lie. 

I cannot find a dumb person attractive, in any sense.  (I could possibly lie)

She appears to be on the short list for Department of the Interior. 

we have a fundamental disagreement here.  she is so dumb. I'm with LB, I sorta though she was attractive and she opened her mouth...that was it.

Sarah Palin is by no means dumb, but she was very under-informed when she was tapped to run as VP. 
She didn't know very much outside of the world of Alaska and it had nothing to do with IQ or not being smart.  It was simply a lack of exposure to national and world politics. 

I was a fan of hers, but her detractors did have a point that she wasn't qualified to be VP due to her lack of exposure, but there was never any rational truth to her not being qualified because she was "dumb".

Don't forget the Progressives will always label a Republican candidate with whatever derogatory thing they can dig up.  The pool they draw upon is Racist/Homophobic/sexist/dumb/xenophobe/womanizer/etc.  It's Alinski tactics 101.
Sarah wasn't versed in politics so they went for labeling her as "dumb" and as dmiller and LB have shown, it stuck.  With McCain, he was labeled as a racist and a sexist/cheater.  With Romney, they struggled with the personal attacks being that he was such a church boy so they had to go with racist and sexist. 
Obviously with Trump they went with all of the above.  lol

Ah yes the old cry of tax cuts.  If he manages to do it in a revenue neutral manner, I'll be shocked.  Hasn't happened in my lifetime... every single big federal tax cut has resulted in a major deficit increase.

OK, if you say so,  she's not dumb.......but I'm not attracted to women who name their kids Track, Snow Shovel, and Walking Stick...... or whatever the hell their names are.

Btw, for all the talk of reforming the tax code -- anyone want to put odds on him keeping the carried interest provision?
