I came here tonight, I didn't know what to expect. I seen a lot of people hate me and I didn't know what to feel about that so I guess they didn't like much nothin' either. During this thread, I've seen a lot of changing, the way yous feel about me, and in the way I felt about you. In here, there were two politicians killing each other, but I guess that's better than 20 million. I guess what I'm trying to say, is that if I can change, and you can change, everybody can change!

not sure which is worse-- that the majority does not control a branch of govt or that a fringe group controls one.

I figured this was a better thread for a political facebook post... A Trump supporter that I know posted this, then he got scolded by his wife in the comments. Enjoy!

To the Women of my life who wanted to see that glass ceiling break. Please hold your head up high and do not listen to those who want you to believe this was about keeping a women out of office. I have not heard or seen anything about keeping a women out of office. This election proved there is hope. Where as I did not agree with either candidate 100% I think Women everywhere should be encouraged with this election. I know there are plenty of men out there who believe in their Mom, Wife and Daughters more than you may think. Look at the numbers and see how people voted. Are there challenging spots in the demographics, yes. But if you look closely there are also some positive points. For one the media would have you believe that males accounted for the shift but there was almost no change in how they vote. Females shifted by much more but obviously not enough. The truth is in the numbers and I see some negative but a lot of positive and some areas that can grow. Find the right candidate and I don't think there is a human being out there who does not believe that the women in their lives can move mountains.

Oh and Donald lets stick to growing our country with good practical business sense and lets stop with the nasty degrading talk! Maybe you should let Pence hold the keys :)

<Wife> you are an amazing mom and wife and I hope you continue to work on our journey together. Our country would benefit from someone who loves and cares the way you do for our son :)

It wasn't scolding enough, but enough to prevent me or my wife from calling him out. It was basically that he shouldnt post political stuff on facebook, and hope that we can all move away from divisiveness. I wanted to post the same message that he did, but reversing all the pronouns and gender references.

Leslie Rutledge is the AR attorney general, and if she'd be the hack's political hack, if she had enough competence to actually be a hack.

Trump to Congress:

"As you know, health care -- we're going to make it affordable. We are going to do a real job on health care," he said. Trump made repealing Obamacare, and building a border wall between the United States and Mexico, pillars of his presidential campaign. Trump said he and the Republican majority in Congress were going to accomplish "absolutely spectacular things for the American people," adding he was eager to get started.

Afterwards, following an hour-long meeting with McConnell on the other side of the Capitol, Trump stood at the Senate majority leader's side and stressed that "we have a lot to do." "We're going to look very strongly at immigration," he said. "We're going to look very strongly at health care, and we're looking at jobs -- big league jobs."

Trump did not elaborate.

Well, I don't know about you guys/gals but I feel better.

I gotta say if these are the kind of people he appoints, the biggest danger will be utter incompetence, rather than evil. I'm not entirely sure which is worse.
