Courtesy of The Hill:We did it! Congratulation Donald J. Trump President of the United States of America!— David Duke (@DrDavidDuke) January 20, 2017
David Duke, a former leader of the Ku Klux Klan, took credit for President Donald Trump’s victory moments after his Inauguration. “We did it! Congratulation to Donald J. Trump President of the United States of America!” Duke tweeted.
The Russians are excited about Trump's presidency.
The racists are excited about the Trump presidency.
The deplorables are excited about the Trump presidency.
What is wrong with the rest of us?
You know besides all that patriotism and critical thinking skills I mean.
Add all the enemies of the USA to the list. They are rooting the " we did it" as well.
ReplyDeleteThe rest of us care about our Country , our families and the future generations.
The fight has already begun.
Count in Saudi Arabia. Our developing rapprochement with Iran was really curdling their aggots.
DeleteNATGEO spent the weekend with Hitler documentaries showing how Hitler's rose to popularity. Identical to what Trump did. Welcome to the start of our long national nightmare.
ReplyDeleteTwo problems.
DeleteOne is the Deplorable and Racists don't watch educational TV like Nat Geo.
Second, even if they did watch those programs, it would be completely over their heads. They would never get the connection or recognize history repeating itself.
The few that do don't care because they're on top so they see nothing wrong with it.
Trump needs to be impeached prior to everything going to shit! He will never represent me as potus and his derailment cannot come fast enough!

He can't stop watching TV, obsessed with cable and reporting about him.
DeleteWell, then however long he continues to live, his life will be a living hell. It will be like poking at a sore tooth. He'll watch SNL and CNN.
Of course, this might be an advantage. If he's focused on his image on TV, maybe he'll ignore some of the more pressing problems and let the grownups handle it. They'll just write something up and then stick it under his nose for a signature. Two edged sword but it might avoid a nuclear holocaust.
“Ultimately this is about governing,” said former House speaker Newt Gingrich to the Times. “There are two things he’s got to do between now and 2020: He has to keep America safe and create a lot of jobs. That’s what he promised in his speech. If he does those two things, everything else is noise.”
DeleteGingrich noted, “The average American isn’t paying attention to this stuff,” adding, “They are going to look around in late 2019 and early 2020 and ask themselves if they are doing better. If the answer’s yes, they are going to say, ‘Cool, give me some more.’”
Gingrich isn't wrong. This is how voters work. Especially Trump's gullible Deplorables.
The problem is that isn't going to happen. Those jobs aren't going to come back, we aren't going to be safer. People will have lost their healthcare and there will be cuts to Social Security and Medicare. They'll be paying MORE taxes while the rich and corporations will be paying less. They will have lost other things too. Plus they will be angry about paying for that fucking wall and that Hillary isn't in prison.
Nope. While Gingrich is basically right he's wrong in that they are not going to look around and think that they are doing better. They are going to look around and be angry that things are worse and Trump didn't fulfill those promises. And they'll turn on him.
What we have to do is make sure they turn on all of the other Republicans too. House and Senate. And their local Republicans in state legislatures and their governors. Democrats need to hammer this in very simple terms. "You had it better under Democrats. You will again. Throw the bums out!"
