    And look at how liberals have reacted. No less than Lawrence Summers wrote an op-ed for The Post arguing that Trump’s actions on Carrier “could permanently damage American capitalism.” Really? Damage capitalism? Perhaps that’s a touch of hyperbole arising from the Democrats’ trauma. What has caused more damage to capitalism: Trump negotiating a quick deal to save 1,000 real jobs out in the hinterlands, or the corrosive effect of the anti-capitalist Obama presidency?

    On Taiwan, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest questioned the president-elect’s strategy in arranging the call, saying, “I’m not sure how that benefits the United States, and I’m not sure how that benefits the United States relationship with Taiwan. I’m not sure how that benefits the Taiwanese people. I’m not sure how that benefits the U.S. relationship with China.” Well, I’m not sure how the Obama administration’s strategy of consistently capitulating to the Chinese and others has been beneficial for America or our allies.

    In other words, the response to Trump’s actions from the left has been to advocate for the status quo.

    ...

    The past month has given us some insight into how Trump will operate as president. His campaign and some of his personnel selections so far have been associated with clusters of tweets and some drama, but it’s clear that Trump and his team will be able to get some things done. You can argue about whether he is right or wrong on this or that issue, but there is no doubt that Trump is going to be bold.

    I reached peak Twitter this week when I was sucked into a tweet battle with a liberal dwarf. True story. Donald Trump’s victory had the militant munchkin fuming. I have to admit that I was a little short with her myself.

    But I should be smiling – we conservatives should all be smiling – because everything is going our way. For heaven’s sake, our next Secretary of Defense is going to be nicknamed “Mad Dog.” We just spent eight years being ruled by people who would prefer it be someone nicknamed “Hugs N’ Stuff.”

    The liberals are truly going nuts, and it’s beautiful. They recently resurrected Nancy Pelosi for another glorious term winnowing away the House Democrat caucus

    This is one of those bots, right? No actual human writes like this. That's why it's so inexhaustible. That and the fact that the person responsible for it still lives in his mom's basement. Let's hope she lets him out for the inauguration where there will be actual bathing in the blood of illegal aliens!

    LOL

    Human wrote it.

    I'll join you in dissent if Trump hassles people based upon race. I'd prefer he gives amnesty to the law abiding immigrants, and I'm fine if he sends away those convicted of crimes.

    This is an insult to all our men and women serving overseas for the last 8 years and the commander in chief....talk about over the top...going into Pakistan and taking out Bin Laden was pretty fuckin' far from Hugs and stuff....Gadaffi's removal as well.....for a hawk who's never stood a post, I think you're blowing smoke here and using Trump tweets as a sign of power....I hope he does take China to task for their cold war with Taiwan but Mad Dog is just another soldier...I doubt he'd agree with your statement either

    we all are...let's not forget that we've actually been deporting these guys but still have a large backlog...Trump will not be an originator of this process...what he needs to do is expand the court system for these INS cases...they are grossly understaffed...they should not be getting fed and sheltered by tax dollars in prison, that's for sure
