A West Virginia Mayor said this.

I still try to wrap my head around how Conservatives especially evangelicals were quick to embrace Melania Trump and normalize her as the next First Lady.

I still try to understand why Michelle Obama was never given the same respect they are giving to her now,why she's had to cope with racist remarks from the right and smeared on nonsensical issues like wearing a sleeveless gown.

Our country is racist,we should call out bigotry when we see it.America is not post racism,we are still a racist country.
Don't be surprised with their racism. Don't forget late Jerry Farwell the founder of Moral majority then was an avowed racist. I said it before and I will say it again, most of the so called evangelicals are pure racists. They just try to cover their racism with bible thumping. They can fool their gullible a/s lickers but not me. Tell me when was the last time America had a First Lady of class and educational background of Michelle Obama. It's pure undiluted racism and nothing more.

Trump won, get over it. Your DNC, in collusion with d media, ran a campaign trying to demonize Trump, In all honesty Bernie Sanders would have done better Dan ur Crooked Hillary. Where was Hillary d night she lost? At d darkest hour when u guys needed her she turned her back and ran away, too emotional in d face of defeat to even face her heart broken supporters. She only saw u guys as "votes" nothing more. I really laughed my head out.
At least we had a candidate who ran on policies feasible enough to implement not one who had bogus ideas that would never see the daylight in a republican controlled congress or one who runs a campaign of lies and ends up a total fraud backtracking on his every single policies even before he is sworn in.

It took the GOP 30 years of scheming to stop Hillary,they couldn't pull that off with a generic republican candidate,it could only be a snake oil salesman like Trump who ends up not winning the popular vote as we now Know Hillary Clinton may match President Obama's presidential feat in the popular vote.

Everyone gets knocked down,she was knocked down election night,no one saw it coming,pollsters,pundits,media even both parties didn't envisage a Trump win.We were all devastated at the loss,like everyone else,she obviously was too emotional to give a concession speech that night,and she gracefully delivered one the next day.

It's quite ingenious of you to claim Hillary saw her supporters as 'voters' only.That's very hypocritical of you when the man who won the Presidency is a fraud who has now backtracked on every of his major campaign promises.

The wall will include a fence or it may entirely be a fence,Mexico will never pay for it now the republican congress wants to fund it,Obamacare will not be repealed after all,some parts of it will be changed and others kept,he was going to drain the swamp now he is the gatekeeper of the swamp,he now has Washington insiders and Lobbyists in his pockets.

So,Pleeeeeeaaaaaaassssseeeeee,you don't get to utter a thing my friend.

Here's GOP opposition research on Sanders,if you think he'd survive the republican attacks,you need to get your head checked.

Why on earth would a White Nationalist be given a position at the White House?

I'm ok with Reince Priebus being the Chief of Staff; but Steve Bannon should have been left in the campaign field.

You are starting to get irrational. Politics is a system of structures where members are rewarded in victory. The grassroot is really not at liberty to determine who the prime leader chooses to work with him. At the end of the day, the metric he will be judged by is aggregate results, so he has the freedom to choose whom he thinks will help him achieve that.

You can't stand on one hand to determine who he employs into critical positions then stand on the other hand to criticise him when things are not falling into place. As much as the 'liberals' try to demonize him, Trump isn't exactly a fool.

Bush Jr. is being rightly criticised for his role in the Middle East but some have still not realised that Dick Cheney played a good role in those disasters.

Literally, she has blood on her hands.

Especially with the creation of ISIS!

And by extension Boko!

RUSSIA GOING NUTS IN SYRIA, WITH 300 AIRSTRIKES IN 2 HOURS
Russia was no doubt emboldened by Trump as POTUS and has launched massive carrier based airstrikes with heavy bombers, cruise missiles, artillery, and infantry in Syria to wipe out ISIS. This story just broke.

Now let's see what Obama's responses are, with U.S. warships within eyeshot of the Russian warships (the Mediterranean is not big enough for both navies).

OK, Here it is on RT: https://www.rt.com/news/366995-anti-terrorist-operation-carrier/

CONFIRMED: BEFORE LAUNCHING MASSIVE STRIKES ON ISIS IN SYRIA, PUTIN FIRST CALLED TRUMP AND DISCUSSED IT, AND HE TOTALLY IGNORED OBAMA! HA HA HA HA HA and a half page full of laughs!

TRUMP WILL END THE WAR ON TERROR. All it will take is a little cleanup and a cutoff of American funding for the terrorists.

UPDATE: THIS IS HUGE, RUSSIA IS CONSISTENTLY LAUNCHING ONE SORTIE EVERY 21 SECONDS. THEY ARE RUNNING THIS AS HARD AND FAST AS RUSSIA IS CAPABLE OF WITH THE FORCES PRESENT THERE. AND IT IS OFFICIAL: THIS IS A TRUMP APPROVED ACTION AND YOU KNOW * WELL PUTIN PULLED NO PUNCHES AND TOLD HIM ABOUT OBAMA, HILLARY, AND ISIS. See: http://awdnews.com/top-news/video-u-s-apache-helicopter-follows-behind-huge-isis-convoy,-escorting-them

And now we witness the end of the Obama-Clinton legacy, before he's even out of office!

His choice of Steve Bannon from Brietbart for his white house advisor, that was a good choice. Now he needs to make Ron Paul his Secretary of State, which he has not picked yet.

Stanech.

Where did you get your bogus numbers? The official tally is not in yet but it looks like HRC will win the popular vote.


Missy, Simple logic shows over 10 million votes stolen from Trump.

FACT: Many districts reported enormous turnout for Trump nation wide. Yet Hillary beat Trump in the popular vote? And more importantly overall voter turnout was low? Lets add this up.

Enormous turnout for Trump plus Hillary beating him in the popular vote EQUALS MASSIVE TURNOUT FOR THE ELECTION OVERALL, which did not happen.

If enormous turnout happened for Trump, and overall voter turnout was low, THEN THE ELECTION SHOULD HAVE GONE MASSIVELY FOR TRUMP AND NOT SPLIT EVENLY WITH HILLARY. Which means, if Hillary beat him in the popular vote, PRACTICALLY ALL HER VOTES WERE STOLEN VOTES. How many? Good guess would be TWENTY MILLION.

Folks, that is the ONLY ANSWER.

You can not believe the kind of outrage out there even from some of Trump's supporters over Steve Bannon. Another outrage will be over Gov Christie of N/J and he quickly shoved that one aside because Christie prosecuted Ivanka father in law while he was US Attorney in N/J. It will be very interesting four years. Patiently waiting.

There's no centrist Democrat viable enough to lead the party without getting backlash or being branded as part of the establishment.The party needs new leadership and only a progressive can do that.The progressives views on Israel really don't enter into policy,Obama is not very well liked in Israel but he's not hated either,Trump is cozy with Bibi already and it appears Bibi and other Jewish elites banked hard on a Trump win with hopes of him ripping apart the Iranian deal.

What I've come to understand is this,Israel will always have her way with America no matter which party rules or what faction of the party is in office.There are obviously powers that be that make sure of that.It really doesn't matter what the progressive wing of the party believes,as long as it doesn't enter into policy am good.

If they control the goverment. Those policies will be mainstream. Take keith elison or whatever his name is for example. He wants to cut iron dome funding etc.

I dont believe in that conspiracy. Most conspiracy goons supported Trump anyway. If you are right, their theories will eventually collapse on its own contradictions after the sugar rush of Trump's victory since that will mean they have been out maneuvered by our reptilian overloards.

The Democratic establishment is not yet dead and it won't be overthrown completely and the progressive wing's first step to go mainstream with such policies is total control of the Democratic Party which won't happen.In the event the progressive wing takes over completely,I still believe the leader would be restrained once in position of power,same thing I've observed with Obama.He clearly isn't all for Israel or the Jewish lobby but still he panders to them in a way where he isn't totally loved or hated.

If Bibi can snub Obama and go before Congress without his approval and Obama ends up approving $38billion ten year aid to Israel.It just shows,somehow the strings are always pulled to favor Israel no matter what the sitting President believes or holds against Israel.
