This is why Trump's election didn't depress me like it did many folks. stevenleser Dec 2016 #93

I agree. I feel more positive these days bravenak Dec 2016 #94

You said a mouth full when you said stevenleser Dec 2016 #95

Yes! We will be on offense... david4justice49 Dec 2016 #132

And when they interview Trump supporters, they whine, Please, Dems, give him a chance!! adigal Dec 2016 #153

Oh yes. bravenak Dec 2016 #145

Now the GOP in the Senate are asking Democrats TrishaJ Dec 2016 #146

Fuck them and fuck anybody that helps bravenak Dec 2016 #147

Wait, wait, wait. Whatthe_Firetruck Dec 2016 #101

That's exactly it. nt stevenleser Dec 2016 #119

8 years, no way zippythepinhead Dec 2016 #102

I'm inclined to agree with you. It depends on a couple of things. stevenleser Dec 2016 #126

Yup. Less than two years until impeachment for corruption, imo. Oneironaut Dec 2016 #137

Less than 1 year. Enter President Pence. Missn-Hitch Dec 2016 #141

I would agree with you were it not for climate change. femmedem Dec 2016 #107

Similar to what I said to the poster below, if we had a different choice, I would certainly make it. stevenleser Dec 2016 #122

Bully for you that you can afford lessons. Some of us may die in the process robbedvoter Dec 2016 #117

Your rant would mean something if we actually had a choice. Since we don't it's meaningless. nt stevenleser Dec 2016 #120

Steve, I would be more sympathetic to your point if it weren't Trump in the White House. Oneironaut Dec 2016 #129

That's the point though isn't it? If 'W' wasn't enough to drive the point home, something worse is stevenleser Dec 2016 #130

I believe that a certain segment will never learn their lesson. Oneironaut Dec 2016 #135

There is no question about that. The question is, how many can we peel away. stevenleser Dec 2016 #138

I'm inclined to think though meadowlander Dec 2016 #139

I hear you. See my #138 above. stevenleser Dec 2016 #140

"they" are not just Trump voters. A lot of democrats - not you, obviously- robbedvoter Dec 2016 #118

Again, your rant is misplaced. Save it for those who voted Trump, not those of us trying to stevenleser Dec 2016 #121

Seems we share the same sentiments. I preface my comments with, Missn-Hitch Dec 2016 #144

Yes, and look, I understand commenter robbedvoter's anger and fear but it is misdirected stevenleser Dec 2016 #149

I hear ya. Cheers. Missn-Hitch Dec 2016 #150
