wolc123 Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 To most in America, it was a stunning victory last night, but to almost as many, it was a bitter defeat. Now is the time to come together as a nation. Only together, can We make America great again. As we head off to work today, it is important that we not gloat over this too much, over those who are sad now. In the words of my favorite singer (see shirt), remember: "The road to happiness thru Love and Charity". 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree with the spirit of what you are saying, there has to be a bit of slack cut to those of us who were told first that there was no chance Trump would ever be nominated and then having to listen to weeks of, " he cannot be elected". There needs to be allowed a period of vigorous celebration at having saved the country from a path of socialism. It is unfortunate for those who are fans of an all-powerful government which promised to provide cradle-to-grave support like that which eventually toppled the Soviet Union, but we won an election that they said couldn't be won. I am not a rabid Trump fan, but I did vote "against Hillary" as apparently many others did. But this whole campaign from beginning to end finally won my respect for a man that did the impossible. With a unified elitist media that was daily pounding out the Hillary left-wing line throughout the entire campaign, to the members of his own Republican party who ran for cover in abject cowardice, the man overcame staggering odds. It may turn out that he saved the U.S. from an irreversible move away from the Democracy that we have flourished under. I gave the man my vote and now it is time to give him the rest of my support. America won a great victory last night. So while I know that if the situation had been reversed, the Hillary folks would have had great fun rubbing our noses in it, and I will not apologize for raising great fanfare and celebration because she lost. And those who were wrong will just have to buck up and accept the defeat that has been too long coming.

The_Field_Ager Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 The Democrats, formerly the party of the working man, campaigned on a policy of shutting down more energy jobs and offshoring more industry via TPP . Political suicide in a nation with 94 million out of work. And that is the official figure. Likely far higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Field_Ager Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 I intend to gloat for at the least the next 2 years. Lord knows, the other side would be erecting the guillotines and constructing the political gulags had they won. Time for some payback. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to try to be gracious in victory, but if some liberal jacka** spouts off with their nonsense they're in for a buttload of gloating, teasing, taunting, and ridicule. If I can make them cry, so much the better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Don't throw the first punch but make sure you throw the last" oh and another one that is very appropriate given the population demographics of the country.

chas0218 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 One thing that no one can argue or dispute is that the blue collar american people with the power of vote can change the outcome of the countries future, people just needed to vote. I think this is the biggest and best example of how powerful the blue collar families can be and won't take it laying down. Honestly I am still a little shocked.
