    You realize that rioting and destroying shit, stealing TV's and assaulting people isn't 'protesting' nor 'exercising their first amendment rights' right?

    And you also realize that doing this does not help your side at all, right?

    The people have spoken in regard to Trump.
    I started to wonder, and this is just speculation on my part, if his comments have anything to do with what was revealed by Comey in his classified briefing to lawmakers earlier in the day. The dems came out of the meeting fuming but the reason has not been revealed. Some are calling for his resignation over what was revealed. This is a developing story and may be linked to Cumming's unusual comments about Trump's legitimacy.

    You do realize that not everyone protesting was doing that right? And people caught breaking the law are arrested and punished right?

    Only Trump's base got hysterical about the protests that occured after his election and conflated legitimate protest with incidents of violence and property damage.

    My side? You do realize that Trump is the president of all sides don't you? He should have done more to try and bring people together but he just pandered to hate mongers like you.

    Ok, so why did HRC lose then? She did the polar opposite of Trump, exactly what you are describing, and lost.

    Why do you think that is? And lets cut the shit, no popular vote, no 'low voter turnout' BS. There is a shitload of people that are fuckin TIRED of the PC filter being forced on everyone and thats undeniable. Enough to swing an election Humbert.

    Im not a fuckin hate monger, but I'm also not a liberal pansy. Take Alicia Machado for example, say anything bad, and you are a racist xenophobe bigot by the liberal pansies. Since when can we not call a spade a spade?

    Ahh whatever this whole thing is just getting tiring.

    Same stuff over and over.

    You're throwing a lot of shit around and none of it's sticking.
    You don't agree that Trump should start trying to mend fences? That what he is doing know is dividing instead of uniting?
    That he has the lowest approval ratings of any president elect about to take office and it's all a result of his behavior?

    if either or both of these turn out to be the case, then IMO rep. lewis is on firm ground labeling trump's electoral vote victory as illegitimate.

    ^ news flash gayfairy. Hacking goes on all the time.

    I wonder how long it will be before we see dim donuts hoarding food, building bunkers, and preparing for the end times.

    Don't forget to check for Putin under your bed at night.

    Me thinks your tin foil hat is screwed on too tight.

    Clearly to people like yourself humbert. You guys absolutely refuse to see any reason WHY trump is even there in the first place. Its all hate, racism, bigotry, ignorance, stupidity, ad neausum to you guys.

    No. I do not. Especially after the downright hysteria over not only the win, but from the media clickbait slander machine as well. That would mean a 'win' for the pansies, and fuck that shit. Trump should stick to his guns and lets see how it turns out in 4 years. If its shit, we got another vote.

    Quote Originally Posted by Humbert

    Nope, thats been going on long before Trump. HRC was taking Obamas division to a new level, and that helped create the Trump win in the first place.

    Quote Originally Posted by Humbert

    But yet he won. What does that say about the other camp? Its totally impossible to stay anything about 'approval ratings' with out first considering the opposition.

    And no, I don't believe much anymore in polls and media. 15 years ago I did. News was more information than reality TV at that time, and slowly its transformed into the clickbait garbage that we have today.

    Ok Ray... just suppose that Russian hacking did affect the outcome of the election and in that way put in place what you consider an illegitimate head of state.

    How many times and how many countries has the US subverted, assassinated, bombed, invaded, vetoed and sanctioned to put in place the head of state that suits them?

    Two wrongs certainly don't make a right, but it does make fertile ground for sanctimony.



    Trumps a dud and will get his comeuppance, Hilary is a warmonger and doesn't deserve the reins of power. The US is reaping the penalty from 50 years of short sighted and self serving domestic and foreign policy.

    I think the long term future for the US is Balkanisation, hopefully through the ballot box rather than through the American propensity for violence as it is clearly such a divided nation on so many fronts, not just along bi-partisan political lines.
    Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!"

    I'm sure many people would see a problem with his wife allegedly being a former prostitute, but you really have to be a sick fucking slime ball to have a problem with their kid being autistic.

    If by whatever means "conclusive evidence" was found, I certainly would be the first to claim Trump's win illegitimate but from what so far has been published no way can I say so. If Rep. John Lewis has "conclusive evidence", rather than making unfounded statements, he should be using his office to bring this to public attention. As a member of Congress and as part of the opposition party he has the right and obligation to criticize the Pres but stating Trump's Presidency is illegitimate is unwarranted and rings of a sore loser statement. Must admit though a bit of karma given Trump's birther campaign aimed at delegitimizing Obama's Presidency.

    Trump's achilles heel lays in his compliance with laws related to gov employees getting financial gain from their position. Trump's refusal to put all his business assets into a blind trust is without a doubt going to result in an ethics violation that could lead to impeachment. We can be sure the Dems will be all over every penny spent by the gov to see if any of it goes to the Trump Organization and it's 500 business entities and at some point it will happen.

    Obviously if they know something the American people have the right to know. Not that this has ever stopped the government from keeping secrets before...

    You should aim your barb at Comey then and not them since the information was classified.

    My hearing not so good but I saw it.

    I assume what they were shown was enough to convince them the Russians did indeed hack and did other things to influence the election. Really pissed them off. Hell even Trump admits the Russians were responsible. Even so, the question remains, did the hacking invalidate the outcome of the election and how in hell would that be established?

    As much as it pains me to say it Trump will be Prez Jan 20th.

    I don't think that explains their anger at Comey. I'm sure they already accepted the notion that Russia was responsible. Something else triggered their anger at Comey.

    you guys should follow Trump tweets, they are hillarious, most don't even make it to the press, and they are absolutely priceless !!!

    I think we should have a special Trump tweeter feed thread so we could all comment on it
