Your tears are delicious. It's a bittersweet feeling having to live vicariously through an arrogant narcissist like Trump, but the meltdown his success has caused from the entitled freeloading professional victim brigade, all throughout the West, is simply far too glorious.
8 years coming right up... Yes, he's definitely lowered the benchmark. Its a lesson for the Democrats that lying & cheating does pay, they just need to do more of it, because in the end people are too lazy to process facts How'd that turn out for Hillary?
There are only two intellectually honest debate tactics: (a) pointing out errors or omissions in your opponent’s facts, or (b) pointing out errors or omissions in your opponent’s logic. All other debate tactics are intellectually dishonest - John T. Reed
The Most Popular Presidential Candidate Of All Time (TM) cant go to a sports stadium in the country he presides over. Figure that one out...

+xKellyanne Conway on the media reporting on the Inauguration's low crowds and Press Secretary Spicer's insistence that they were the highest crowds at an inauguration, period: "Don't be so overly dramatic about it, Chuck (Chuck Todd of the NBC). You're saying it's a falsehood, and they're giving -- our press secretary, Sean Spicer, gave alternative facts to that."Alternative facts. Alternative fucking facts. Now the term 'Orwellian' gets thrown around a lot these days, but fucking hell. lol have you even read any Orwell? -PB

What is so fundamentally wrong with using the term "alternative facts"? Often facts themselves don't prove a point, sometimes you need multiple facts and context in order to gauge the reality about something.
It's going to be a long four years when the biggest issues on the lefts agenda is crowd sizes and "alternative facts". Hopefully Trump can get the economy back on track while these precious people drown themselves in nonsense.

Actually your statement is more apt for conservatives, since keeping the people in the dark is one of the ways you control them Hence no surprise Trump's unwillingness to release his tax returns or just generally his greater willingness to lie

+x+x+xIt's funny how people take this as gospel when in reality it was taken before the even started..... Yeah, the real photo is sad enough. You'd expect more people for the first black president in history. Trump is the most unpopular president in history. However, the photo floating around the web is AFAIK a lie. any more hyperbole, sensationalising on your behalf? Do you want me to be the GRAND CANYON? "IF I WAS THE GRAND CANYON, I'D ECHO EVERY THING YOU SAY!" EH, Fk it, i'll get steven merritt to sing that line for you here-> play this to the missus, and you wont be getting supper tonight!

The Trump presidency is only days old and already there are serious moves to have him forced out of office, and the man leading the charge is from the President's own political party. Richard Painter is a lawyer who advised former president George W Bush on ethics. He could not bring himself to vote for Donald Trump, admitting he supported instead Mr Trump's Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton. He has many concerns about the new President — his attitude to the media, his pledge to ban Muslim immigration, and deporting Mexicans — but he is really zeroing in on the billionaire businessman's connections to international companies and countries. "What is unconstitutional is for anyone holding a position of trust within the United States Government to be receiving profits and other benefits from dealing with foreign governments and companies controlled by foreign governments," Mr Painter told 7.30. Unconstitutional? Yes, according to Mr Painter. He says other constitutional lawyers support his view. That means Mr Trump could face impeachment proceedings. Mr Painter said Mr Trump could also be exposed in ways other than those relating to his business dealings. "By having the President's name on buildings, that is a potential terrorist target," he said. "There are complications that could come up with the President's investments overseas in countries where there's tensions and the United States has to resolve — for example a dispute between Russia and Turkey. "We shouldn't have a president invested in either Russia or Turkey. He should not have a dog in the hunt." Mr Trump has distanced himself from his business interests, handing control of his companies to his sons. Mr Painter maintains that is not good enough. "The key issue is who owns the businesses? If he owns the businesses, then he is in receipt of the foreign government money that is paid to the businesses and that's a violation of our constitution." Mr Painter conceded impeachment was highly unlikely. He said he expected Mr Trump would "figure this out". But Mr Painter said that did not mean just sorting out his business affairs — the President will need to be careful in all areas of his administration. "That also means the provisions of the constitution that protect Americans from discrimination based on their religious faith," he said. "We are not going to be keeping a registry of Muslims in America, we are not going to be deporting Muslims, we are not going to be barring people from coming into our country because of their religion." Of course, Mr Trump won office by pledging to, "make America great again". He rallied many of his supporters by targeting those groups he believes are a threat to the US. Mr Painter admitted he did not vote for Mr Trump, despite his strong ties to the Republican Party. But, he said Mr Trump was his President — the President for all Americans — and he must be held to account. "He will conform with the constitution or we will remove him. That is done in the United States," he said. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-01-23/trump-will-conform-or-be-removed-former-bush-adviser-says/8205094

And so the regressive policies of the Stone Age knuckle dragger begins. But who gives a shit, all that matters are jobs..... http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-01-24/trump-makes-early-move-on-restricting-abortions-around-the-world/8206444Donald Trump reinstates abortion gag rule as women's rights advocates express dismay United States President Donald Trump has reinstated a global gag rule that bans US-funded groups around the world from discussing abortion, a move that was widely expected but has nonetheless dismayed women's rights advocates. The rule, which affects American non-governmental organisations working abroad, is one that incoming presidents have used to signal their positions on abortion rights. It was created under former president Ronald Reagan in 1984. Mr Trump, an abortion opponent, signed the reinstatement directive at a ceremony in the White House on his fourth day in office. Barack Obama had lifted the gag rule in 2009, when he took office. "Women's health and rights are now one of the first casualties of the Trump administration," said Serra Sippel, president of the Centre for Health and Gender Equity in Washington. "The global gag rule has been associated with an increase in unsafe abortions and we expect that Trump's global gag rule will cost women their lives." Reinstatement of the gag rule, formally the Mexico City policy, comes just two days after hundreds of thousands of people marched in cities across the United States and around the world in a show of unity for women's rights, among them abortion access. Advocates note that the far-reaching gag rule affects groups getting funding from the US Agency for International Development, even if they use separate money for abortion services, counselling or referrals. "It is appalling to dictate to civil society groups and health care providers how they can spend their own money and force them to withhold from women critical information about and access to the full range of reproductive health care," said Nancy Northup, president of the US-based Centre for Reproductive Rights. The policy puts groups that provide women's health care in an "untenable position," said Brian Dixon of Population Connection Action Fund. They can either accept the restriction to keep their funding or they can reject the restriction and lose their funding, Mr Dixon said. "Either choice hurts the women that rely on them," he said. Following the rule's inception in 1984, former president Bill Clinton revoked it when he took office in 1993 and former president George W Bush reinstated it in 2001.

When you throw in the Republicans' pro-guns views with their 'pro-life' views, it reminds of their worldview: "All life is precious, unless it steps on my property"

"Trump’s America is a rotten place President Trump delivered a campaign speech, not an inaugural address today. That he and his staff do not understand the difference goes to the heart of his insufficiency as a leader. Addressing a shockingly sparse crowd, he painted a picture of a hellish America that can only be restored by turning inward, deciding the world is a burden and our allies are thieves. There has never and will not be a better Trump. His vision is dark, false and frightening. He leads by stoking nativism, protectionism (which actually makes us poorer) and seething resentment. God help us all."

If he owns the businesses, then he is in receipt of the foreign government money that is paid to the businesses and that's a violation of our constitution."Mr Painter conceded impeachment was highly unlikely.He said he expected Mr Trump would "figure this out".But Mr Painter said that did not mean just sorting out his business affairs — the President will need to be careful in all areas of his administration."That also means the provisions of the constitution that protect Americans from discrimination based on their religious faith," he said."We are not going to be keeping a registry of Muslims in America, we are not going to be deporting Muslims, we are not going to be barring people from coming into our country because of their religion."Of course, Mr Trump won office by pledging to, "make America great again". He rallied many of his supporters by targeting those groups he believes are a threat to the US.Mr Painter admitted he did not vote for Mr Trump, despite his strong ties to the Republican Party.But, he said Mr Trump was his President — the President for all Americans — and he must be held to account."He will conform with the constitution or we will remove him. That is done in the United States," he said. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-01-23/trump-will-conform-or-be-removed-former-bush-adviser-says/8205094  lol :laugh: I think it's a live photo of tardtho oh I mean JoffaTossa. hahah I imagine he does that every night screaming into his pillow, nooooooooooooooooooooo.

Glad to see the liberal left wing freedom hating democracy hating filth are still burning & will continue to burn for the next 8 years about President Trump.
Suck shit you petty little worms. Your default cries of I'm Offended By Everything On Planet Earth aided an abetted by the traitorous filth in the media no longer hold water.
Time to face political & emotional reality which I know is difficult for you but one day you'll get there without the need for a safe space.

Jesus, at least I actually spice up my shitposting with some criticism of policies every now and then.

+x"Trump’s America is a rotten place President Trump delivered a campaign speech, not an inaugural address today. That he and his staff do not understand the difference goes to the heart of his insufficiency as a leader. Addressing a shockingly sparse crowd, he painted a picture of a hellish America that can only be restored by turning inward, deciding the world is a burden and our allies are thieves. There has never and will not be a better Trump. His vision is dark, false and frightening. He leads by stoking nativism, protectionism (which actually makes us poorer) and seething resentment. God help us all." So pessimistic and negative, one would think the world is about to end. A 'hellish America'? Only if you're a whinging lefty who hates free speech and democracy. For Trump's supporters he offers hope, which means they previously felt hopeless, which is an incitement of Obama and the Democraps. Seriously if the Democraps were worth their salt they would have retained government, instead they got their ass kicked to the kerb in a landslide. A mature person would look within as to why they lost the election, rather than petulantly pointing the finger and going around frightening immigrants and black people that the President is a white supremasicst and Nazi. All you're doing is making people fearful, paranoid and anxious to score some cheap political points, which is evil. Seriously the left needs a good ass kicking , and Trump is the man to deliver it.
