Trumps first 100 days will be a breeze...

Then cutting taxes...building a wall...dismantling the EPA...

It's all happening in a month...
And I can't wait...

It´s so "funny", do you really believe that crap?
But ok, there were even people that defended Hitler while Germany was bombed out and everybody knew about the KZ´s...

When do the Trump voters will be ready to realize, to admit that they were fooled, just to fill an egomaniac billionairs money bin? When do Trump voters realize who is appointed to Trumps horror cabinet? When do Trump voters realize that their saviour isn´t draining the swamp, but filling more water to it? Now suddenly it´s ok for the "forgotten" and "left-behind" not rich Trump voters that Trump puts the Wallstreet into his team, puts people into his team that don´t want minimum wage, social welfare. But more working poor, slaves. Too make the billionairs more rich. But they are not ready to accept the reality. I have to think of the three monkeys that don´t want to see, hear and talk.

Trump voters, the new right, the alt right, the "Not Nazi, but..."`s are the same like LePen (France) voters, like AfD(Germany) voters, like the people that put Orban(Hungary) into power and now are fed to the backteeth of him. They are the same like the idiots that shifted the nazis into power in Poland, and now don´t know how they get rid of them again, while everything is getting worse than before.

How can unemployed and living from social welfare people vote for a party that first of all would cut social welfare, if in power(Germany/AfD)? What does that say about the intelligence of such people? How can victims of globalization vote for an alleged billionair that profits from exactly that globalization? How can sane poor and middleclass people really believe that an alleged billionair would care for them, would make their lifes better? He makes money from exploiting exactly this poor and middleclass people.

And how can the "forgotten and left-behind" Trump voters still defend "The Donald" after Trump made and makes the Merkel, promising A and doing B? After he is doing the turncoat since he was elected. How blind and blended, brainwashed by poor lies must one be to still defend that geriatric clown?

It´s funny how the Imperium Americanum is destroying itself slowly. Not because of an european made refugee crisis, but simply for itself. The good thing is that Trump, the USA can now be the cautionary example for all those european "Not Nazi, but..."`s voters, for all that "Kick the establishment out" voters, for all that "concerned and enraged citizens" that only want to teach TPTB a lesson. They can see now what happens if they shift their saviours into power. Nothing but the faces that exploit the peoples changed, nothing else.

And yet there are people that still refuse to see the reality, standing right in front of it, eyes wide opened.

Funny, somehow, if it wouldn´t be so sad to see the stupidity of the humanity.

Deeper swamp, more alligators, and an "Order of Friendship" award from the Kremlin.

Wow, it's really like we're putting a neon sign on this whole reveal.

If it quacks like a duck, walks like a duck, and swims like a duck, it just might be a Manchurian Candidate.

The only consolation I can get in all of this is Boomers losing social security and medicare by their own hand. The irony, the indoctrinated Red Scare crowd is the group that that hands this nation over to corporate interests and Russian plants.

Wew lads...

Forget Swamp Drain.

I think we've seen Brain Drain.

I always considered Exxon Mobil as the ESSENCE of the "establishment" and the very definition of "big $ that controls govt".

I guess it didn't matter if Clinton or Trump won after all, considering they are the same (new boss same as old boss). I mean, the fact that Trump is a billionaire that associates with billionaires and therefore the top .0001% of elitists wasn't an automatic dismissal of his viability but this appointment sure is the nail in the coffin on any expectations that things might change.

Nothing's changed. It's all the same thing in the end.

My prediction is war with Saudi Arabia is on the agenda (as per PNAC documents).
Here is my awesome thread from years ago that has been largely ignored where I open the discussion about the upcoming war with S.A. The Next Front in the War on Terror.

Still believe we should have elected Ron Paul. That would have been at least a 'chance' for something different.

Oh well, gear up... perpetual war is our middle name.

You’re kidding, I hope.


Draining the swamp with oil

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

The swamp is now overflowing


I can't wait to hear the Trump apologists reasoning for justifying this one!


This is the pits, if true.

You do realize how insane this post is don't you. This man is being chosen for SoS because of his relationship with the most dangerous demagogue of the 21st century. Putin chose Trump and by proxy Trump is choosing Tillerson. Not to mention if you LOVE Trump so much you should want non-controversial picks that won't gum up the first 100 days of the upcoming monarchy

they don't care....why?......because at least it isn't Hillary.....

a reply to: Annee

Trust me, my dear friend, we haven't seen anything yet. The mental gymnastics his fans must perform to stay afloat in any argument will cause them to suffer a complete political realignment that will leave them in the coporatist corner. The man isn't even officially elected president by the electoral college as of yet and the expectations are faltering every single day. I'm getting Nixon and LBJ vibes from this gentleman.

This will be a show for the ages.

Trump To Nominate Extreme Militant John Bolton As State Department’s No. 2

Bolton is an extraordinarily hawkish choice for a president-elect who ran on a platform of non-intervention.
Bolton would be an aggressive selection for Trump, shattering his pledge to work peacefully with other countries. Bolton, who has called for the bombing of Iran, held high-level roles in three different Republican administrations between 1998 and 2006. He is now a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank whose vice president has described Trump as “an idiot.”

This is for those who were deceived in thinking Trump would be a Ron Paul on foreign policy

You elected at best a madman for president at worst something indescribable

And its only going to get worse

and worse

and worse

Please dont let that be true....I thought pense was a twat....

a reply to: Willtell

Read John Bolton's wiki, it's full of tons of dirt.

He was part of the group that wanted Iraq War 2, because that 'promotes peace and security in the gulf' after all.
Hahaha.

So the question is, will we be going into Saudi to help the Royals or to oust them? The script hasn't been revealed yet so I'm still undecided on which way we'll justify our campaign.

I'm sure there's half a dozen other nations that need bombing around the world too that we haven't quite made enough money off of yet.

Trumps cabinet members have a tremendous amount of skin in the game…

They earned their money in the free market...

They want the free market to explode(positively)…

These men and women created jobs and earned their money in the free market…

Hillary, on the other hand, "earned" her money(over $100M) by selling access...

But ok, there were even people that defended Hitler while Germany was bombed out and everybody knew about the KZ´s...

That's a new record for comparing trumps cabinet to Nazis…
Pat yourself on the back...

For the one millionth time progressives Naziism is a bad parallel to draw…


The national Socialist party of Hitler's fascist Germany saw the fatherland nationalize healthcare and industry(Krupp steel for example)...

Nazi Germany sought to control every aspect of daily life from how much electricity citizens used to how much food they consumed to the type of car they would drive...

Nazi Highlights
Nationalized Healthcare
Nationalized industry
Controlled daily life
Controlled news and determined which news was acceptable
Controlled Entertainment and used media to further their ideology

Now who does that sound like??

Never, no matter what happens or how terrible it gets they will never admit anything and never change their mind. Americans are no longer citizens of a nation, they are barbarians and tribal loyalty is all that matters to them.

Like # they did!

Most of them earned there money through crony capitalism!

Especially the goldmansach # stain he appointed.....

If we had a real free market most the old banks would have died and been replaced by new.

Yup, and he's best friends with Putin ... who gave him an award, one of Russia's highest honors!

Like that isn't anything abnormal...considering everything else.

Wait a second. He's going to pick an actual oil baron to be our top foreign policy leader? LOL But somehow, Trump's going to stop toppling other governments? Either people don't know the Secretary of State's duties, don't know the history of oil companies helping topple world governments, or they really are ok with the oil wars of the past. Well, I think it's safe to say that Europe & Israel will get their Arabian Gulf pipelines through Syria now (which will ironically make the West more dependent on Arabian Gulf energy supplies).

As for this:

Why do y'all want us beholden to OPEC and the Islamo-fascist regime's of the Middle East???

You're kidding right? Progressives have been calling for green technology like solar, wind, and geothermal for decades! Some of us are actually pushing for the use of 100% renewable energy sources. But somehow in your mind that means we want to be more reliant on OPEC? Do you guys even think this crap through?

a reply to: enlightenedservant

You obviously don't know the definition of oil baron.

Actual oil barons actually own the oil companies - you know, like the muslim Saudis who fund Islamic terrorism and supplied ISIS with weapons with Obama and Hilllary's cooperation and approval.

a reply to: Deny Arrogance

Oil Baron definition

oil baron
noun
A magnate in the oil industry.

Magnate definition

magnate
noun
A wealthy and influential businessman or businesswoman:

Are you sure I'm the one who doesn't know the definition?


And if you read my entire post before kneejerk responding, you'd see my argument about Progressives pushing for green energy sources. Our policies would make us less dependent on oil and natural gas companies, including the ones in the Middle East. So what's your point there?

ETA: And while we're at it, did you know Tiller owns more than $129 million worth of stock in ExxonMobil (Forbes link)? So wouldn't that also fit your false definition of an oil baron too? lol

It's interesting that this is not an official announcement, but a report "on conditions of anonymity", according to the news, that this is probable.
If it turns out not to be the case, my suggestion will be that the possibility was being leaked as the product of internal arguments in the Trump team- someone was hoping that reaction to the report would put Trump off making that choice.

pence is the one getting the presidential security briefings, that gives trump more time to make profits on all the deals he's setting up.....so he may be a twat, but at least he looks like he cares about the countries security, because trump doesn't give a damn
