He will dye it and claim that the Presidency doesn’t stress him, because he is such an amazing president.
He will have the grayest hair. The grayest hair. It will be beautiful. You may think you have gray hair, but believe me, he will have the best grayest hair. #MakeHairGrayAgain
I suppose I can look forward to seeing three things, but none are particularly nice of me to look forward to.
.
1) Seeing the looks on the faces of the slack-jawed idiots when they figure out in four years that they never got their wall and never will because “honest” Don who says what he means and means what he says lied his ášš off to them because he knew they were gullible suckers.
.
2) Seeing the looks on their faces when they discover that Trump and crew are just going to make it easier for them to get their clothing made by near slave labor overseas, buy steel and other products from overseas, shelter their funds in offshore tax havens, and ship their jobs overseas.
.
3) Watch as the people in West Virginia that were on my TV today still won’t have the ability to figure out in four years that Trump lied his ášš off, the Republicans have been lying their áššëš off, and they’re not getting all their old mining jobs back- EVER.
3A) Watching the ones who are capable of doing so figure out that they voted against the candidate who outlined a plan that would actually help them and their children.
Yep. He’s already walking himself back on the ACA.
.
They’re going to find out that Trump is a classic snake oil salesman who believes in nothing except lining his own pockets, and that he’ll tell any lie to make the sale.
That he sees absolutely no necessity to keep any promise or honor any contract he’s ever signed or ever will.
.
The doesn’t give a CRAP about the Little People.
He doesn’t care about other rich people either they’ll discover in short order. Only if it benefits Trump itself will he do it….
The other rich people are part of the “Little People” as far as Trump is concerned.
A woman on The Daily Show just said that Donald Trump is the worst thing to happen to a woman since yeast.
I still want to know who went back in time and stepped on the dámņ butterfly
You’re not alone in wanting that answer.
I’ve been playing around with a theory that HRC is this generation’s Richard Nixon: someone whose political career has become skewed because of the association of being untrustworthy, whether based in reality or not.
.
Now I’m starting to wonder if Trump might not become this generation’s Ronald Reagan: a celebrity whose media fame becomes the prime reason a political career became possible, and while becoming the titular leader of the US, may become manipulated by the GOP more than he’ll ever be aware.
.
Still working on ironing it out.
Honestly, I’m still hopeful because I have little faith in him. Notice how all past presidents age significantly after they take office? It’s because of the long hours and stress. Even Dubya, who took more vacation days than any other president, had that happen to him.
Trump, on the other hand, will probably never give that much of a crap about the job. Especially when he realises the President isn’t all powerful like he thinks he will be.
Of course, it’ll be another two months before we find out for sure, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you guys.
Oddly enough, the election is not officially over until the Electoral College meets on December 19. Not that I expect a massive defection to Sen. Clinton or numerous abstentions, but this has already been an unprecedented election season.
Of course, now the count of electoral votes stands at Clinton with 228 and Trump at 290. Even if Hillary gets all of the remaining 20 votes, I don’t see her gaining enough defectors to bring Donald down below 270. Trump would have to lose at least 21 electoral votes either through defection or abstention.
I’m looking forward to the arrival of the Four Horsemen, who clearly have their three signs of the Apocalypse between this, the Cubs winning the series, and YJ returning.
And I will walk right up to them and demand to know what TOOK THEM SO BLOODY LONG!
Something which has occurred to me as a possibility: After who knows how many months in office, Trump may decide the job isn’t what he thought it would be and quit.
A possibility? Considering how Trump described how he’s going to handle the job, i.e., give most of the power and responsibility to his vice-president, I’d assume he’s going to screw up taxation in favor of the rich, grab every loose knick-knack in the White House, and disappear back into the night like a KKK ghost that supported him.
We survived eight years of Tricky Ðìçk.
.
We survived eight years of Saint Ronnie.
.
We survived eight years of Shrubbery.
.
We can survive four (or fewer) years of Trump.
We hope, look at the White Power team he’s assembling to run his cabinet….
I correct myself – we survived one-and-some terms of Tricky Ðìçk.
Well, regardless of whether you liked them or loathed them, Nixon and Reagan, at least, had the decency to get people who knew what the hëll they were doing. (Not to mention both men had to deal with Democratic Congresses–either in part or in full–for their terms of office. And neither man viewed Democrats as some sort of enemy that needed to be vanquished but rather an opposition that needed to be challenged and overcome through discussion and discourse.)
And the ONLY reason we managed to survive Dubya is that we had a Democratic Congress for his last two years (and, don’t forget that Dubya screwed up badly by getting a GOPer to switch to “I” so that we had a Democratic Senate for most of 2001 and 2002).
