In Trump ....We Trust

[Francisco]

2 million popular votes doesn't have any meaning, because America doesn't use a pure democratic system. You just argue that Hillary had a high turnout in some blue states, while majority of the states went for Trump and he won the popular vote there.

Still he got 2 million votes less than Hillary. For it to be a landslide he needed to win both the electoral college and the popular vote. Just like Obama did twice or like Reagan did to Jimmy Carter back in the 80's. Upset victory not landslide victory.

[Powerboy]

2 million popular votes. So much for a landslide.

I know. It's patently ridiculous to list an election where someone won in the Electoral college but lost the popular vote as one of the landslide election wins in American history. More than 50% of the population wanted Hillary Clinton as president, not Trump, by actual votes. At the very least, someone would have to win the popular vote and the Electoral college to have a landslide win. Instead, we are talking about an election where, no matter who won, roughly half the country didn't want that person as president. Half the people who did vote for Trump (or Clinton) wanted to take a shower after and were really voting against someone, not for someone. That's some landslide.

Even Trump though Hillary was going to win.

Indeed, he seems very surprised, ecstatic, doesnt know how to deal with the unexpected result, the madman is literally dancing on the table.



There were a few experts that said it would either be close or that he would win, they were mocked and shunned, disgusting display.

Say what you will about the man, hes not dumb, and he knows how to lead and inspire.

Whoever the Trump wrangler is on his staff needs to close his Twitter account. It was all well and good when he was just Donald Trump to tweet whatever thing popped into his head, but as the President Elect he needs to realize Twitter is not his friend. It just does not come off well to have the soon to be leader of the free world saying stupid stuff on Twitter.

Trump would never allow that he loves twitter.

best hair in the game

would be funny if Twitter suspended his account

He looks like he's thinking, "CRAP! They called my bluff and now I'll have to actually do some work...DAMMIT!

[TheInvisibleMan]

he just wanted to win, who knows if he actually wanted to be President

like King Robert in GoT, won the throne but ill suited to rule

[Lhynn]

Jesus Christ! Get real! Trump himself thought Hillary was going to win because he ranted and raved like a lunatic that the election was rigged in her favor! What does that say about HIS grasp on reality?

icon_lol.gif By screaming wolf! he made sure the elections would be more closely watched, and made the people aware that the establishments candidate could conceivably pull something like that, i can think of several reasons why that would benefit him and none that would harm him or his image in any way.
As my friend Velour Fog would say. 4d Chess.

I have thought this since the start. It started as a publicity stunt that just got away from him. It was like he was going out of his way late in the race to say things to try and throw the election, but it was too late. He never really wanted to win and now he is stuck.

[TheInvisibleMan]

As to why he isnt talking to the mainstream press? because they are hate filled horrible creatures and i hope they burn, and that actual professional journalists take their place. he will talk to his people directly. He doesnt need the press.

going by your recent posting "actual professional journalists" are nothing more than propaganda spewing lickspittles who dare not challenge the establishment

so guys like Woodward and Bernstein, Edward R. Murrow, Gary Webb, are not "real journalists"

They can close his personal account if they want, but the process of handing over the official presidential Twitter account has already started.

I've pretty much come to the conclusion that most of the people on the Liberal side of this argument genuinely care about the people of this country and what happens to them and that the prolific people on the Conservative or at least Trump side are just trolling.

Oh yeah. We've sat here and had our little coffee klatch for a year where the main arguments were about whether Hillary was lefty and Bernie Sanders-esque enough. We had one Trump troll but most of these guys were nowhere to be seen. No defenses of Trump, no advocating for giving him a chance. But then the thing we never expected happened and they come out of the woodwork because it's a chance to rub it in some liberal faces. It's all about trolling and not worth taking seriously.

Trump supporters have to start the process of delegitimizing the press early. Trump is going to have the most scrutinized term in presidential history. If he ever farted in an elevator we'll know about it.
