The American people have voted in a man of big business/corporations. Despite other Presidents pandering to them previously I wonder if Trump is going to help his friends and screw the people more than Obama did.

Or maybe he'll try, as a businessman, to reduce the national debt?.....






































lol, nah.

Interesting thing is that Trump didn't do any better than the last two republican contenders and did worse than Bush. Hillary just did FAR worse than Obama. Dema were unenthused. Repubs were past that though having dealt with enough shit candidates, so they drafted the biggest FUCK YOU ever for the establishment: Trump. The DNC can thank itself for forcing HRC on the people and the RNC can thank itself for not having the foresight to install sufficient mechanisms whereby they could do the same. Pretty sure Trump would have been stomped by Bernie tbh.

Blacks and Mexicans had nobody to really get behind, so here's a prediction - the next senator running for the democrats at the end of Trump's first term isn't going to be white.

It is funny though, from an outsider's perspective it seemed like a big "nope" from the Republicans in the form of John McCain and Mitt Romney who were as unelectable as Trump based on their policies. You kind of had a sham election in the sense that there's no way those two were going to make it, and I thought Trump was going to be chapter 3 of that story.

I agree, I think Bernie would have been President if it was between him and Hillary or him and Trump.

I was not surprised, although I didn't see him winning Wisconsin and Michigan. Did anyone see that coming? I did call him winning FLA, OH, and PA, but I figured he would have to pick up NH or NV to put him over 270.

Outside of an extreme gaff like HRC I don't think republicans have a path to victory for the presidency going forward tbqh. Old people die eventually and whites are on the path to affirmative action, DBE, profiling and indiscriminate killings by law enforcement. The shoe is switching feet.

I'm not so much surprised he won, actually not surprised at all. But I'm pretty surprised HRC didn't take it further than she did. So evens out to somewhat surprised.

I wonder if there was something going on that made them not go over the edge and just grab power, maybe some deal (http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presidential-race/2016/11/10/white-house-obama-hopeful-donald-trump-will-not-prosecute-hillary-clinton/). Unless that just hasn't happened yet, but it'll likely be pretty quick here that the Dems totally turn on her.

Oh come on Swish, you know HRC was by far the most pro-megacorp/big bank person we've ever seen run for POTUS.

But anyway, like I've mentioned, the Reps gained the house and senate because of things like 0bamacare being stuck to us. Some swore that movement was finished, but clearly it wasn't. So this is it's natural course. Now if Reps and Dems had allowed 0bamacare to be repealed, not moved towards TPP, the elections could have been very different. It is what it is.

I think they were both bad, but I'm interested to see how Trump handles his corporate pals. Are we going to see better handling of Starbucks and the likes who do their best not to pay any tax? I know in the UK they get away without paying anything while all the small businesses out there are threatened for every penny.

If it went that way it'd be JFK, not Reagan. Some very strongly believe that was Bush and the neocons. But JFK, the guy was about to do some serious exposing, so they all were getting very nervous.

Dude, Trump's going to travel in a popehat mobile. You know he had body armor on through this while thing, right? They would literally need to blow up a city block to get to him. Nah, odds are, if they don't stop him right now, it won't happen for 4 years. I'm more concerned of them collapsing the economy now (next year) rather than anything else. ...or starting that big war they want, before he's in.

JFK got domed while moving from real fuckin far away

If they want you, like really want you, they got dudes can get you. Reagan just didn't qualify for the full frontal (doubt it was even (((they))) after him personally, but I'm no expert on that era).

Well I'm speaking of causality, not effect. JFK was a threat, Reagan was just in the way. But Trump knows all this, likely taking precautions to guard against effect. Like I said about Trump meeting with Kissinger and all the far-left conspiracy theories started popping up here, I would think nothing more obvious and enjoyable to tell such tyrants "something happens to me, I left my people with instructions" :D
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

was somewhat surprised because I thought the dems would go harder on rigging it.

Think they got scared by all of Trumps talk of it being rigged and watching the polling locations. They also probably underestimated his popularity. Both of those resulted in them not being able to steal it.

he's still pro israel pro surveillance not like it's worth throwing the baby out with the bathwater
Yeah so? And like 40% of Israel was pro-Trump, the anti-globalist candidate. Of the some 50% in Israel that favored HRC, it was mostly the matter of familiarity.. which is kinda dumb because of the frosty relations they had with 0bama. Trump want's to promote peace in the middle-east, after all these neocon wars, and this is somehow a bad thing? ....after the past number of presidents having been arming both sides of about every conflict?

Of course within reason, he didn't run for prime minister of Israel. He didn't run for Caliph of Islam. And he's not the Pope.

As for surveillance, it's a weak spot (remember I favored Rand), but I'm willing to give him time to look into the program, which up to this point has been well above his security clearance level. If you believe Trump is a shithead, then it doesn't matter about it, we're doomed, if that were so.

edit: and not suggesting you think of him that way. Nor does he have my unwavering trust no matter what he does anything he want's (I'd be like an 0bama supporter). But he has people around him, that I think give him good counsel. And as Reagan said "Trust but verify".

Accurate post. I only know what Roger Stone has intimated to us about the Reagan buildup.

Basically he said there's guys who come to you who "know government better than you" and tell you so right away in the first 100 days. And they don't beat around the bush.

Listen to them (ala 0bama) and there's no problem.

Say no thank you, well, you aren't a threat. But you're in the way now, as you said.

I was totally stunned. Never thought it would be a blowout win for HRC like the smarty-pants said, but with all the major US institutions such as the Media, Big Hollywood, Big Academia, etc. in the tank for the progressives as usual, I figured the fix was in and Hilary would be elected, by a slim margin. Laughing my @$$ off, Trump was vilified for saying he would not abide by a defeat, and look at who is protesting and rioting now, just because a Republican community organizer won?!? Libtard snoflakes are such F-ing A holes.

Trump actually had the most votes from Israeli-Americans.

http://www.newsweek.com/tel-aviv-diary-israel-americans-vote-trump-516582

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/219852

There are 300,000 Israeli-Americans with voting rights living in Israel, and 100,000 of them have expressed their intent to vote in the upcoming elections. Of those, 75% intend to vote for Trump, according to details released by the Trump campaign in Israel.

They must be confused. Surely these zogbots should have voted hillary!

11-12-2016, 04:53 AM
Say no thank you, well, you aren't a threat. But you're in the way now, as you said.
Well yeah, in the way, in the way of VP Bush taking the helm. They messed up though, and he cruised until he could run for POTUS himself, to get it back from a maverick that done took from their Carter. That was Reagan's real first mistake, agreeing to take Bush as VP, and likely nearly cost him his life.

But then they are fickled, aren't they? they just as soon replace him with Clinton first opportunity. Like Bush said "Sorry my fault, I didn't try hard enough" at the end of it. uh-huh...

But he got his Son in, after Bubba, to carry on the work as Bubba did too, like a bunch of parrots all of them. What would have Kerry been? The nation wouldn't have followed him into war (much like HRC), I mean near 0 support from military and vets, swift boat vote was too strong. Ahh but Bush Jr, a man to carry on the cause. Then finally along comes 0bama, an unknown, and Oprah given the word to see how the nation takes to him, and with a messianic complex in the acting, much like HRC tried during Demcon. McCain and Romney, all the same. And they wouldn't have allowed Ron Paul in.

But it's looking like this time they dropped the ball. Bernie wasn't a player, all they had was HRC. Cruz looked like a plant to me, and a lot of people realized there was something wrong there. Another Bush on home plate, but that one had near 0 charisma.

See, they do need the people, or they wouldn't be needing to bombard us with all this horseshit everywhere we look. All that horseshit is modeled after people like Edward L. Bernays, wrote the book Propaganda and part of the Clinton's reading material, most of them likely. Really astonishing stuff, like waking up from the matrix. You know, they were learning to perfect that there 100 years ago, so they can slowly change us to something that would work for them and their cause.

And you can see it. Watching the protest is really weird. HRC supporter guy runs up to the camera and yells "fuk babylon!!". That's like total reversal. Like 'save us from the bankers' as HRC is funded by those bankers. Propaganda can be a very powerful tool, especially as it's used now from cradle to grave.
