    Don't forget. The liberals are outraged that Trump is giving up his salary in the white house.

    All good, but the last one won't hold. It's great that Trump defeated the Witch Queen, but a collapse is coming. We're due a recession and thanks to the $10 trillion in debt Obama has added at near zero interest rates, this one is going to be scary. The Democrats will try to obstruct all tax cuts or anything else Trump can do to get the economy moving.

    We can breathe a brief sigh of relief, but my advice is to still continue to prepare for hard times. And that's all on Obama and the rest of the professional politician class, but the Left will try to blame Trump of course.

    If Trump can cut Government waste and Trade imbalance, regaining American jobs the way he has promised to, He can reduce the deficit very quickly.

    One of the most terrifying aspects of this election has been the ability of Trump supporters to ignore facts. Even Trump noted this when he said he could kill someone and his followers wouldn't care. So true!

    Well enjoy your brief victory. What scares people is what Trump actually says and does, not liberal fear mongering or the media. You all don't care. He could shoot someone and you wouldn't care. Fair enough. But you had better hope everything Trump says is a lie because if not, we are heading for a civil war. This is no longer a for-whites-only nation and there will be a huge price to pay for electing such a vile, offensive, and trivial man.

    I don't like Hillary but Trump is in another league. There is no comparison. She is a politician but Trump is dangerous. We can only hope he is more clown than Hitler. And I do have a bit of hope he will rise to the occasion but don't really believe he's capable of doing so.

    Actually trump supporters and sanders supporters were the people who could see, cold, hard, facts. They saw that this neoliberal economic model given to us, thanks to first the GOP of Bush Sr. and then signed on by bill Clinton, open borders free trade, has hollowed out and devastated America and hundreds of millions of her people. Hillary supporters were not intellectually astute enough to see the 800 pound ape sitting quietly in the corner. SO the failure here is with the establishment two parties and their establishment politicians, like Hillary, McConnel, Ryan...

    There seemed to be a huge taboo about bringing up the devastation of free trade on the people. But two candidates came out against it and one had to be rigged out of winning, while the other one won. So the cat finally tore free of the bag, and bringing up free trade, open borders is now on the table. The dems and repubs did not ever want it on the table. SO now they have a huge fight on their hands, to try to protect it for their elite donors, the only people they have served for decades. That era may have just ended, and it will be contentious and will tear up both parties. The chikuns have come home to roost. And they are pissed off at being kept out of the house, and thrown to the wolves for so long.

    If Trump's detractors actually cared about what he said and not what was claimed about him by propagandists, African Americans and other Democrat supporters would all be ecstatic at the prospect of an end to urban blight and a return to good jobs being available, and not crying about Trump's alleged lies or a coming civil war.

    If there's a civil war, it's because clueless radicals like those rioting right now want one. And screw them if they try.

    Yup. Except that I've sworn off the term "*******". I was complaining about how the Left rather than just attacking Trump, was attacking Trump's followers and how unhappy I was about that. Well in the ensuing conversation, this term came up, and well, they had a point.

    But, your point is DEAD ON!

    Perhaps you missed the fact that for a racist, xenophobic misogynist, anti-semite.... Trump has done better with minorities than any previous republican. Not to mention of course, that his campaign staff were a diverse group of people, as well as his businesses. Plus that little thing that his his daughter and son-in-law are Jews.

    Give us a break with all your ignorant group-think labels that absolutely bear zero weight when they come out of your mouths now.

    Also, I would caution against violence. It would be the fastest shut-down of a civil war in history. Liberals can't even cope with the results of an election or a dead cell phone battery.

    Yeah, I'm not quite sure how a civil war would work these days. Would the cities secede from the states?

    Ahem! Trump garnered more Black votes -- despite Barack Obama BEGGING them to vote for Hillary -- than any GOPer presidential candidate since the 1960s and he got a respectful number of Hispanic votes as well. As for leftists and their misogyny claims, he also gained a huge number of women voters. So apparently they are not afraid of the sky falling.

    Hey! Show some respect and caution. You DO NOT want to be on the receiving end if an angry leftist snowflake safe-spacer type winds up his throwing arm with a hot quiche pie at the other end of it. Shudder!

    Austerity is about the only way out of this. Even that isn't a guarantee. One look at France and Greece tells us it's about a 50/50 shot. Then you have that Murphy fellow. His numbers are lower.

    Same perception here,
    mostly when he Trump would hire Steve Bannon as Chief Strategist.

    Nonsense. That's what the central banksters want everyone to believe. Their QE doesn't work. If it did, Japan wouldn't have been stuck in malaise for 2+ decades. Ultimately, debt spending will destroy an economy and we just added $10 trillion+ in the last 8 years. And their zero/negative interest rates won't work either. Absolutely no historical precedent for it.

    You say it's 50/50, but there's no climbing out of those holes. The only way out is collapse. A total collapse of the currency and then a reset - but not a reset by centralized authorities, but rather the people deciding what they want to use as money. We need free market money. We need separation of money and state, not just separation of church and state.

    QE and austerity have next to nothing in common. Yes, QE comes from the banks, but it comes in the form of printing money to offset the effects of our debt to the banks and other nations. Austerity restricts government access to more borrowing and spending. It usually requires deep spending cuts coupled with tax increases.

    You don't know what you're talking about. You must have voted for Obama twice. It's no coincidence that the 16th Amendment and the Federal Reserve Act were passed in the same year. When the central bank prints and prints and prints - actually just digitizing today - and this is new debt - who's on the hook for this? If you answered, the American taxpayer, then you answered correctly. As you just said, part of austerity is tax increases, as well as "benefit" cuts from the government which are in large part funded by taxes. So they have a whole lot to do with each other.

    But again, you're just following the bankster narrative. The way out of this is for Trump to do what Lincoln did and print interest free Treasury notes and then you have a gradual dissolution of the central bank.

    Or more likely, which Democrat will sell out first? The Democrats better think about their own political lives. The people have spoken Republicans control all three branches when the Democrats were expected to easily win the white house and the Senate. So welcome to the new reality.

    Another couple of slurs thrown at Don were that he was "racist and homophobic", but if that was true he wouldn't have had blacks, gays, lesbians, latinos, hispanics, orientals etc on the Apprentice!
    Heck, he even made Arsenio Hall the winner in 2012 and a gay guy runner up..:)
