I never hope for anything, just looking into a possible future.

You can lie to yourself through all the salt but not to us.

I can see you....

Hoping for an assassination is beyond salty even for you.

I don't think he's hoping for an assassination but you have to admit there's going to be some pissy right-wing nutters when they eventually realize The Donald ain't right wing. You can only fool stupid people for so long.

Although you have to admit, dumb Americans have been fooled for a pretty long time now.

Just look at ES.

I agree...he is not right wing and he is not left wing. He is going to put the citizens ahead of everything which is anti-establishment on either side and also why both parties despise him. He cannot be bought and is set to tear apart their status quo globalist establishment who can no longer fool the people into believing any of the chosen will do anything other than make the corporations rich and violate the citizens rights.

What's the matter? That new thread dying? Trying your luck here?

LMAO.

I don't mind posting on your threads.

I am enjoying your misery! You are creating your own Forum of Pain!

He got less votes than Mitt Romney.

Accept it and move on.

Good think he wasn't running against Mitt Romney.

Hillary got a lot less votes than Obama as well. She pretty much under performed him no matter how you look at it. County by County, state by state, or total vote. People clearly disliked her more than Trump.

Actually they didn't.

She won the popular vote by quite a margin and that's what the polls were showing.

You're referring to ES?

What did he post from the National Enquirer?

Can't remember but it was on a political thread and he was trying to make some point and used the Enquirer to back up his claim. Hands down the funniest thing I've seen here in months... and people wonder how Trump got elected.

LOL I have relived the polls you posted in the other thread.

Before they counted CA, Trump was ahead. CA is an island of solid democrat so they flipped the popular vote. But even if you do go by national popular vote, polls had her winning by more than the fraction of a percent she won by. And again I will point out when a national poll came out that had Trump close, you pointed out the only ones that mattered were the state by state ones that showed she would win states like NC, FL, OH, MI, WI, and PA. That is true since the president is not elected based upon popular vote but in state by state contests. Unfortunately, the polls to which you refereed were clearly wrong.

The aggregates showed a 3 point lead and the result was within the margin of error.

Just to debunk your ridiculous revisionist rhetoric that you use to try to make yourself feel better...

About 124,000,000 people voted. Shillary apparently won the popular vote by 395,000 votes which is 0.31% of the total vote. Now we all know how delusional you can be but to call 0.31% "quite a margin" is laughable. I wish I could assume you meant quite a miniscule margin but I know you too well to give you that much credit for seeing the reality of things.

So where is the difference?

The difference between what? Trumps left-wing economic policies and Obama's moderately conservative policies?

Obama Is a Republican | The American Conservative

One of the biggest problems in politics (on both sides of the border) is the willingness to support or promote a party based on labels. To (as a conservative) complain about Obama and support Trump makes very little sense unless you don't understand or don't care about actual policy. In ES's case (and others like him) I believe there are two possible reasons. Number one, they don't really understand the issues and view things as either republican or democrat. This was highlighted by one of the late night talk show hosts that went to Trump and Clinton rallies and asked the folks what they thought of their candidates policies however, they switched the policies. Show they ask a Trump supporter why they like Trump's policy on ABC and actually give them Hillary's policy. Trump supporters defended Clinton policies and vice versa. The second reason is the racism/fear angle.

I have friends on both sides of this issue. Both really have no idea what they're voting for and will accept or reject ideas based on who is talking. As Ralph Klein once said, "If I walked on water, the opposition would say Ralph can't swim."

Anyway, in ES's case I think it's a little bit fear but a whole lot of stupidity... and I'm not trying to be cute. This guy actually tried to use The National Enquirer to support an argument.

Trying to portray Trump`s economic vision as leftist only shows just how upset you are over this turn of events. He is anything but a socialist and his promises of how he will try to mold the future economic situation only serves to affirm his fiscal conservatism.

Stop being a complete tool and get over it already.

Get over what? Silly twits that define themselves as left or right yet don't understand what it means? I'm past that. I just like making fun of you guys
