No, you are over there acting like my concern is some kinda joke and there are no consequences to what is happening and if there are any you seem to believe they are good ones. This guy has no idea what he is doing, and yes that scares the shit out of me . . . are John McCain and Lindsey Graham our final hope?
He is a not a great business man, he is a self promoter, that's all and he sees this now as a chance to advance his family, not the USA, to enrich his family, NOT the USA.
. . . and really, the fact that you guys on that side of the pitch are doing all the things you accused libs of doing when Obama was elected as Trump is doing all the things that Obama and Hillary were accused of is baffling. What happened to the "Constitutionalists!", the "Jeffersonians!" you all folded like limp noodles, you all fell for the 'shiny object' . . . is it just entertainment you seek?
If you are still a Trump supporter in spite of all that he has said and done since the election, then you are our poor deluded friend.

That may be true, but the president elect is keeping a list of "enemies". What happened to his speech about bringing the country back together? "Vengeance Tour 2017!" . . . and it's a, "Long Black Train" coming. Let's just say I have my doubts . . . this guy openly sides with and has many of his followers siding with anti-American interests . . . and you called Obama anti-American?
You'll be fine.

I like America, in fact after being in other countries I know I love it. The terrorists want us to live like they have for so long surrounded by mayhem and ruled by tyrants. Putin wants to knock us off our high horse, weaken NATO and the European alliances to help his own power plays. I would rather our own politicians, especially our president, don't lend a hand in those endeavors.
Again, even if it's just optics, all the nasty things that were made up by the right about the Obama era are now being applauded by those same people as Trump brings those things to fruition in a real sense, not just in the tabloids.

Now you know how we felt in 2008 and 2012, the only difference we accepted it and moved on, so quit acting like a bitch.

Did we it make up when Obama was caught on a hot with the Russian diplomat saying he would have more freedom after the election?
Fricking sore loser.
Unexpected victims of Prop 64 -- the ever-so-accommodating medical clinics all over the state that promised a pot card for a few bucks, and the associated Green Pages advertising in the Reader. However, I expect the Green Pages will recover once the legal rec-pot shops open for business.

Like Obama, you guys give the POTUS more credit then they deserve.

No idea if true, but wouldn't surprise me...
Yes, they did, but of course they didn't call it that.

"The point, of course, is that Senate Republicans seem to have a very different set of standards for Trump’s nominees than they did for Obama’s nominees. The Huffington Post found one GOP senator who was surprisingly candid on the matter.
When The Huffington Post asked [Oklahoma Sen. Jim Inhofe] on Monday night if this same standard of disclosing foreign payments should apply to Trump’s Cabinet nominees, he said it shouldn’t.
“So it’s different now because it’s Trump?” we asked.
“That’s just right,” Inhofe said.
“That’s right?” we asked to clarify.
“Yeah,” he said.
The disclosure question arose because Inhofe signed onto a 2013 letter demanding “unprecedented disclosures” from former Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-Neb.), at the time Obama’s nominee for Secretary of Defense, because Senate Republicans were concerned about “the potential for foreign conflicts of interest.”
Inhofe seems to have no comparable concerns now – because it’s “different.”
telling the Huffington Post that Inhofe doesn’t support “a double standard,” even though he’d just said the exact opposite."
