Well, it's not like Trump's fans are losing any sleep over it if it means getting things done even with compromises ...  

Sometimes a country needs to go through a really rough period in order to become more liberal. This will ultimately push the democrats more to the left and make the republicans even less popular. And I am confident that the liberal values will only benefit from this in the long run. So yes, it is ok with some distasters sometimes, if the outcome at the end will be so much better.

I should hope not!  If they voted for someone without believing a word they say then I would think that nothing much bothers them!  Blind trust like that should lead to some very peaceful slumber!

It should be noted here that I'm making fun of the guy you quoted, not everyone who voted for Trump, because there is no way what he said is true.  No one is going to vote for someone they know is a liar and be happy about it!  I'm just ... that is simply the funniest thing I've read in awhile.

I get what you're saying but I was being very specific. I'm NOT talking about republicans in general (see how I didn't say "republic**ts") or the people who voted for Trump (any Trump supporter), but very specific people I saw, for example on 9gag (I remember their usernames) who cheered for Trump when he said he'd prosecute her and cheered for him when he said he wound't. Same with his other proposals. They either praise everything he does or defend everything he does.

I'm most certainly looking at it from both perspectives, but we're talking about two different situations. Do you now see the difference?

So then this is less note-worthy?

Yeah, I get that. I thought about it myself. The problem is that

a. You could be the worst thing ever and still be relelected in 2020 because of some clever campaign which tells people what they want and still does nothing. I mean even Bush was reelected. The man everyone made fun of.

b. His damage he may do could be too severe. Like people actually get killed (e.g. with abortions not done in a clinic, vilolence against minoritiesm etc) and the environment will most definitely suffer. How much is hard to tell.

Well, at least we know that their not the ones starting protests about the election results ...  

You may have some irony there but I think I've struck gold with cognitive dissonance at a MASSIVE scale ...  

No matter, I await what Trump's extreme detractors will do next. Admit that their wrong about the second coming of Hitler or stay in the Wonderland hallucinating even more ... (It's like the cat said, "We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.")

Personally, I'm looking at results. We already knew no one was going to keep their promise. I want to see what comes of his term.

You can say the same thing about Trump haters. If he indicts her, you'll have the same people screaming about Democracy, about the Constitution, about the "American traditions", and he would have half the country and all the mainstream media against him. If he does not try to jail her,  it will be "lyer !". And if Trump fans are OK with the lie, they are dishonnest fanboys, and if they are not OK, then "you see, Trump is a lyer !".

At the end of the day, he does not jail her, he appoints or not someone that will look into it, and he will find something or not. She got massive speech money, donations and campain funds from the worst lobbyists on Earth, and you can already see her donations dropping now that she has nothing to sell. Based on common sense, she's probably guilty, but justice is not about common sense but about fairness and proves. So, I'd like to see her judged outside of a favorably rigged system, but I would accept there is not enough proves .

So, honnest feeling, I would be dissapointed if he does not appoint someone at some point. But he's still not President in Office, it could be a trick to start soft, or he could change depending on his popularity or a new wikileak.

Oh boy this thread... One team is telling the other team how to feel about their winning candidate
