with my coming temp relo to Germany and my home company site here in CA likely not my future work site, I'm actually considering the option to move myself to another state. Washington....Seattle area my leading candidate right now. No shortage of water, cooler climate, and better gun laws than Kalifornistan.
I'm actually enjoying watching the celebs work themselves into a complete lather. I'll actually tune into Bill Maher's show tonight just to see how defeated and unhinged he will be.
We've got some seriously disturbed little snowflakes here in CA. UC system wide and SDSU had therapy dogs on campus. Then at my gym, the undocumented are unhinged. I'm like, wtf were you thinking by buying a home in a country you aren't legally supposed to be in....
...yeah, I've noticed it too...and it's funny to watch and listen to the people (GOP and Dems) who only a few days ago were bashing him but are now cosying up to him. ...and just so I want be called a hypocrite or a Clinton fan, even though I was disgusted by his antics, I'm forced to accept the fact that he's now my POTUS too and have to hope that he makes me eat my words.
...been watching all the demonstrations/protests around the country from people who are pissed because Trump has been elected, and just looking at the demographic factions in these crowds I found myself wondering just how many of these marchers even bothered to vote ? ...does no good to complain after the fact just because your man/woman didn't win...and if you did not vote at all, well, you have no right to complain about the outcome.
Apparently the electoral college is now "rigged" because Clinton edges on popular vote. Fine, a couple million libs are welcome to leave my state, lol!
...not sure but I believe this makes the 3rd or 4th time this has happened...? ...Edit; just checked, this makes the 5th time. In 1824, John Quincy Adams was elected president despite not winning either the popular vote or the electoral vote. Andrew Jackson was the winner in both categories. Jackson received 38,000 more popular votes than Adams, and beat him in the electoral vote 99 to 84. Despite his victories, Jackson didn’t reach the majority 131 votes needed in the Electoral College to be declared president. In fact, neither candidate did. The decision went to the House of Representatives, which voted Adams into the White House. In 1876, Rutherford B. Hayes won the election (by a margin of one electoral vote), but he lost the popular vote by more than 250,000 ballots to Samuel J. Tilden. In 1888, Benjamin Harrison received 233 electoral votes to Grover Cleveland’s 168, winning the presidency. But Harrison lost the popular vote by more than 90,000 votes. In 2000, George W. Bush was declared the winner of the general election and became the 43rd president, but he didn’t win the popular vote either. Al Gore holds that distinction, garnering about 540,000 more votes than Bush. However, Bush won the electoral vote, 271 to 266.
I am liking the spirit of unity emerging from the right. http://www.weeklystandard.com/do-you-hear-me-now/article/2005336
Oh did anyone else notice both Canada and Mexico are now offering to "modernize" NAFTA? That cave didn't take long, lol!
...anyone else notice that Trump's demeanor has suddenly changed since the election?...not sure if he's kind of a shock or that he's realized that "Hey, the election is over and I won, so there's no need for me to act like a dick anymore."
I just can't get over the nonsense that I hear is taking place on different college campuses around the country. Classes and midterms being cancelled because students might be too emotional. Emotional pets being brought in to help students handle their grief. Organized cry ins for those who can't get over Trump winning. Is this really what this generation is all about? A completely coddled and all about me generation that always has to get their way. Somebody made a good point earlier on television. He said during WWII we had young men storm a beach at Normandy knowing full well they would most likely die. They didn't cry or protest. They sacrificed themselves for their country. Now we have a generation of the same age who have the emotional stability of a snowflake.
...^^^well said Mess...very well said, and sadly, that's pretty much "the state of the union" nowadays...now if these "millennials" or whatever they're called would take the time to actually shed their self-absorption and put down the phones and social media they are woefully addicted to, they just might find enough time to actually accomplish something on their own instead of expecting to have it simply given to them through their perceived and self-anointed entitlement.
...lol...yeah, whatever helps you to sleep at night, Obama. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...s-not-responsible-trumps-rise-power/93888958/
Yes and apparently the majority of US shares his world view. If that's the case than apparently Obama didn't vote, lol!
...well, so much for "draining the swamp". ...and I wonder just how many of his "promises" he will actually keep?
