Yeah well January 20th is only halftime. So you still got the 2nd half to look out for, his actual Presidency.

Lol...you swallow a lot of his BS and seem to only be bothered by his tweets.

I loathes this man and his behavior. The next four years I will waste a lot of energy hating his ass.

Why though>  I totally get being upset in the aftermath.  I posted some really dumb shit the days after the 2008 election about America becoming a socialist cespool.  So I understand being irrational after your candidate loses.  But to want to spend 4 years wasting energy at something you have no power over just seems wasteful to me.  By all mean, condemn the shit you deem stupid.  But unqualified hate just seems such a waste of your time.

Someone made a post earlier saying he'll be out of office in 6 months.  Might be jumping the gun a bit, but I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't make it the full 4 years. I think his entire Presidency might just be a misfire.  Whereas W was a President people swore was right, swore his policies were going in the right direction, then suddenly it collapsed like a deck of cars, I think Trump will never get it going. Sorta like when a college coach fails in the NFL (Chip Kelly, Nick Saban etc)

I'm starting to think the 4chan thing is every bit as much a hoax as the rest of it tho.  These sites love clickbait, and the publicity of going viral. I think them 'claiming' they made it up and duped everyone is just fodder.

Press conference in 1 hour. We'll see how Donald T does.

It's for a lot of reasons. It's because the electric decided to be so bothered by Hillary's misgivings well celebrating Donald's.

It's I have to look at his disgusting skin and face for four years. I have to watch him behave like a baby constantly. I have to watch  people fall for his distractions all the time.

I have to hear people like Senator Mitch McConnell say that Democrats need to treat the new president with the respect that he treated Obama with for the last eight years. Fucking absurd!

And so far he shitting all over a lot of the things that I care about. He's divisive and angry.

I began reading a book about Nixon recently, it sounds like Donald Trump part one.   Man full of hate and bluster. Having only cravings for power and attention and this miss guided notion that you were gods pick to do it all.

I loathe the celebrity warship in this country. He inherited a fortune from his father and Americans just slobber all over that shit. The combination of money and fame in this country is preferred substitute for substance.

It's not that I don't want to...I'm looking for a glimmer of hope anywhere...I already waste enough energy following politics...it's such a frustrating thing because it doesn't ever really satisfy you. I guess that's why you're never satiated and end up posting hundreds of times in the GNREVO thread.

It is a waste of time.  On a day to day basis, you just gotta enjoy you're life &  try to realize what little impact politics may have.  On the flip side, there's raising & lowering of taxes (and yes insurance rates recently), the improving/crashing economy and other things, leading to job prospects & your pay/quality of life.  Social issues, which I agree Flagg minds little to, are pretty irrelevant, and no Obama didn't want to 'take anyones guns away'. 

That said tho, it does get frustrating. As bad as it may be to see "I won't give Trump a chance" on the flip side I hate reading on FB about Obama is the worst President ever? I just read someone post "History won't be kind to Obama" along the lines of he's been terrible.  It was a friend of a friend so I didn't respond but I just feel like saying "Are you aware he followed the worst President of possibly our lifetime?" 

I'll say it again, and you can bring this up in 4-8 years.  Obama will be remembered as a "Great" President. Prolly better than Bill Clinton.
