The sociopath won more e.c. votes than the criminal and is now sworn in as president.
Liberals turn into butthurt whiners and conservatives turn into unprincipled apologists. Grab your popcorn, and prepare for mouth-breathers.

gary johnson can barely string 4 cogent sentences together. there were a lot of things he really had no clue about in the short time he had in the spotlight. most 20 year old in college are more intelligent than himhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKb2oiJluLkalso, are there any poor libertarians? No, they are all able to criticize or simplify things that have never inhibited their easy liveswake up
you wrote a lot of very nice stuff in that one, and i genuinely appreciate you putting in the time to thoughtfully compose that post, but where you really went wrong is when you insinuated that ideologies like Islam are more "insane" than Christianity , i had to laugh.have you ever objectively considered the tenets of Christianity? thought about it from a neutral perspective and how absurdly effed up and fantastical it is?it's silly. just plain silly, and equally insane as any other religion and you know it. further, it's built on the same religious garbage as other religions before it and isn't even originalyou'd be equally insane to worship your running shoes as deities who give virgin births to indoor 600m specialists
has everyone who said turnout was low because the people have jobs now saying that actually turnout was the highest greatest turnout ever? if not, get with the times!
I am an idiot, crackers!

Considering we were specifically talking about yesterday's inauguration vs. today's women's march, I'm not sure what "arriving all week" has to do with anything - work on that reading comprehension. If anything, those who attended the inauguration were the ones taking days off...
More so, how can they be taking sick days or PTO when you claim they're all unemployed? Which one is it - are we unemployed or do we have jobs and took PTO? Take a side so I can provide facts to show you that you're a moron versus just having to attack your poor reading comprehension and debating skills.
You idiot, you think all those women were just living in the DC area? They have been traveling to and congregating there all week, prior to Friday, so they could make fools of themselves on the weekend, like you.

... you see, by his/her definition, being a billionaire and a president may not make one a 'winner' --- other items of ones persona could in fact nullify those positive items and actually make one a 'loser'. Further, by his/her definition, you can actually not be a 'loser' and thus be a 'winner' even if you are not a billionaire and the president.
Shocking news isn't it?
Well by that definition, people should all aspire to be that much of a loser. Tell me...............given JFK's "persona" what would you consider him, now that we know what we know about his sordid history with women and how he disrespected his wife? How about his brother, Teddy and his "car accident, and other such personal issues, IE alcoholism and womanizing? What about Billy boy Clinton (need I say more)? And his corrupt, power hungry wife who tried to destroy the women that Billy boy brutalized? Its always been interesting to me that the lefties will harass to no end someone who disagrees with their progressing agenda but gives the likes of Clinton and his enabling wife a pass. Where were these women and celebs protesting when it came to light that Billy boy was using Monica as his personal humidor? Nowhere, except SILENT. Hypocrisy at its most extreme.
Sorry, for those pinheads that have nothing better to do then scan a post for grammatical errors, I meant to put two " around car accident and I also meant to say progressive not progressing. There may be some more in there but those are the two I say right off the bat when I re-read it.
DAMN what a loser, SAW, not say. Need more coffee.

Democrats seem to be pretending it wasn't their fault they lost ALL the way down the ballot AND there are mid-term elections coming soon. And they seem to pretend there is no gerrymandering epidemic.
Lots of trouble ahead. I hope these marchers vote in the mid-terms.
Except the gerrymandering has been so effective and rural/urban voting divide so large, that even if voting occurred in record numbers, Republicans probably would still hold the majority in Congress.
If Democrats really want to make a difference, stop with the celebrity endorsements, focus on the common man and put them on the stage, and get out in the rural areas more with Freedom Riders type activism or something.
Well, at least you are two for two on bad arguments. All of your examples are very nice but really have nothing to do with the first post commented on. Shall we now try to rate everyone on a scale of 'loser to winner' based on someone's (yours) opinion to make you feel better?

I'm still confused by your argument. One congregation is on Friday, one is on Saturday, but those who attended the one on Saturday are the lazy, unemployed ones.
I mean... you keep saying they've been "traveling all week". Someone could have easily left work @ 5 on Friday, drive 6-8 hours (from Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia, the Carolinas, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and about 6 other states), got a hotel around midnight and woke up with a great nights rest in time for the parade. That's just straight-up geographical fact.
Very few people are driving further than that when those around Chicago, NY and other big cities could just March there.
Those who went to the inauguration had no other option but to come to D.C. Maybe there was a viewing party in Alabama or something, but who knows. Nonetheless, it was on a Friday.. safe to say that anyone who went to the inauguration is either unemployed or took time off. Thoughts on this? No other way to explain that.
Lastly, just because this has been a politically charged debate, I find it funny that you would say those who went to this march are unemployed, welfare recipient liberals. Super interesting that those who attend a women's march would be classified as liberals, don't you think? Women's rights = liberal movement? Hmm...
Wait, let's stop and ask two questions:
1) which of the apocalyptic predictions that Republicans made for President Obama's tenure have come true?
(some examples: the dollar would lose all its value, interest rates would skyrocket, the budget deficit would skyrocket, the unemployment rate would skyrocket, the health care law would increase the # of uninsured markedly and increase health care costs, etc., all of which have been false)
2) by what criteria would a Trump presidency be a success?
Oversimplication

He ran as a law & order candidate. US crime rates are half what they were 25 years ago; if the downward trend continues or even accelerates on his watch, I'd say that's a success.
He also ran as a jobs candidate. Jobs in the private sector increased for 70+ straight months under BHO; if that upward trend continues or even accelerates on DJT's watch, I'd say that's a success.
Yeah, I know that a sitting President doesn't have a whole lot to do with either of those things. But if those trends had gone the opposite way under Obama, you *know* we'd be giving him the blame; so I figure we should treat Trump the same way.
I didn't vote for that SOB Obama, but fair's fair.
In one day Trump got more fat women out walking than Michelle Obama did in 8 years.
Boom!

The left is committing suicide.
This thread is the "Donald J Trump Inauguration Thread", but the left wants to double down on what lost the election for them. To formulate an effective response, you have to understand the situation and craft a workable plan that will lead towards your goal. Instead, these circus freaks on the Left are showing that they are immature and dangerous children, not to be trusted with anything important, especially the government.
- You want to end gerrymandering? Great. Me too. Push for it. But remember that gerrymandered results favor the establishment and are only a lagging indicator of the basic direction of the electorate. And Trump is not yet the beneficiary of that. He's after the status quo and has been opposed by the establishment of both parties and most of the entrenched monied interests in the world.
- You are offended by Trump's alleged treatment of women? If you tolerated Bill Clinton's history of sexual assault and Hillary's history of attacking his accusers, you are simply a hypocrite not to be taken seriously.
- You think that Trump will try to take too much power for the Executive Branch? And you supported Obama? Trump will quickly undo much of Obama's legacy precisely because Obama usurped powers that should have been the legislature's. He was unwilling or unable to work through the republican system of government. Trump has already started untangling the undemocratic mess of the last 8 years while you bloviate about Hitler.
- You are unhappy that US is not taking enough immigrants? Push for legislation that will increase the number of legal immigrants, which is already at a number around 1 million per year. But that's not the way you and Obama want it done. You support ignoring existing law by declaring "Sanctuary" and proclaiming new rules like "Dreamers" that contradict Congress. Your disdain for a free people making their own rules and laws became clear to those who voted against your candidate.
Instead of being sidetracked by minutia like the size of the crowds being held up from entering the mall by the security forces, listen to Trump's Inaugural Speech. It was a very aggressive attack on the status quo. He made it in a setting that in the past has lent itself to fluffy rhetoric that was meant as much to hide their real plans as reveal their intentions, most of which revolved around protecting the lucrative business as usual..... and getting reelected.
So many of you LetsRun lefty geniuses scoffed and laughed at Trump. "He'll have to withdraw." "He doesn't even want to be President." "He'll be out of the Republican race by the end of summer." "He's unable to get the votes of women, or Hispanics, or blacks, or etc." "He'll lose in a landslide so big the Republican Party will be destroyed." "His campaign is amateurish and unable to run an effective campaign." "His transition is in chaos. " And the stupidest distraction of all: "The Russians won it for him."
You can continue to underestimate him and make yourself look like jackasses, but all that fury and noise will only further strengthen his position.
You don't have to dance every time Soros plays the music.
This is just wishful thinking for your own personal persuasion. IMO, things will get better with the improved economy. My concern is the environment, we don't want a smog filled particulate atmosphere from burning coal everywhere. But there has to be balance.
