How are you feeling about President Trump?

Clinton is worse. By a lot.

I couldn't be happier she lost.

And Trump is president if it's a one man band that plays at his parties.

 

If he won, she still loses.

He is clearly better than her or Trump.

It's not my fault you put all your eggs in the crook's basket.

For all the crap you post about Trump, the facts about Clinton are worse.

She has actual ties to Russia and oligarchs there.

The spewage and ignorance of her offensiveness is stunning.

 

You're posting away as if it did matter. Looks petty to me, all the way around.

 

Ignorance is bliss, apparently.

Trump's inauguration is a reminder that rebelling against the ruling class is in America's DNA

Millions of Californians will click on their TVs Friday and groan. They’ll wince as the unthinkable becomes a reality. Can you say President Trump? It’s painful.

Yes, he’s a terrible choice for all the reasons that need no listing here. He’s not California’s choice, but he is most states’.

And, yes, although it sticks in Donald Trump’s craw — to borrow an idiom commonly used by my late working-class parents — he won despite having received roughly 2.9 million fewer votes nationally than Hillary Clinton.

He won because of a convoluted, undemocratic electoral college system created by the Constitution’s framers to appease some lightly populated slave states.

OK, enough of the negative. There’s something genuinely positive here that illustrates America’s greatness with or without Trump. And it’s worth celebrating.

It’s simply that American democracy performed, although awkwardly, as the founders basically envisioned: Common folk could stand up against the establishment elite and boot them out the door. Of course, the founders reserved that right basically only for white men — no women, slaves or Native Americans — so we’ve come a long way.

Rebelling against the ruling class — peasants with pitchforks overrunning the castle — is part of the American DNA.

And these days, rebels benefit from technology. They can easily communicate with each other through social media while being rallied by Trump’s tweets.

In this case, Trump’s peasants were largely the white working stiffs without college degrees, the very voters who used to be the heart of the Democratic Party. FDR’s party. Harry Truman’s. Even, to a lesser degree, Bill Clinton’s.

But they started drifting to the GOP in the 1960s and ’70s during the civil rights movement and Vietnam War protests. They became Reagan Democrats in 1980.

For a long time, Democratic politicians have taken these folks for granted. They’ve been ignored and even disrespected.

“That has brought us to a pretty sorry place — not only the election of Trump, but the fact we’ve had a sharp veer to the right for many decades,” says Joan Williams, a UC Hastings law professor and longtime feminist activist who has written extensively about the working class.

So in 2016, this middle-class core — particularly workers in the swing Rust Belt states — installed a billionaire businessman in the Oval Office. They rallied behind him, ill manners and all, because he could speak to them and did. And they demanded change. No more Clintons or Bushes.

“I am your voice,” Trump told them.

“We’re voting with our middle finger,” a Trump follower said in Greenville, S.C., pointing to the establishment.

And Hillary Clinton?

“You could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the ‘basket of deplorables,’” she said. That was in September, and the Democratic nominee immediately knew she had stepped in it, as she’d stepped in so many things over the years.

Let’s be honest: Clinton was a horrible, flawed candidate. The Democratic elite deserved what it got in November by forcing this uninspiring retread on voters and ignoring other intriguing possibilities: potential nominees such as U.S. Sens. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, or popular Vice President Joe Biden.

 

Jeremy Wilcox changed my mind.

Actually, no he didn't. Who gives a fuck what he thinks?

 

Yes it will.

Hahahaha.

 

Hahahahaha.

Not with you... you know.
