The day has finally arrived when Donald Trump, the most unlikely of candidates, will be inaugurated as America’s 45th President. Rather than attempting to show some hope, maybe offer some ideas for Mr. Trump, the national news media continues it’s meltdown. Here’s the NY Times Editorial Board, part of the paper that published an unsubstantiated hit piece on Trump’s Energy Dept pick, Rick Perry. Those layers and layers of fact checkers took a nap
Can President Trump Be Presidential?
A special strength of American democracy has been the desire of newly elected presidents to unite the public with healing words after the sound and fury of the campaign.
Now comes President-elect Donald Trump. He has won the office and yet has continued his vindictive, disruptive style of politicking. He has run a post-campaign that has corroded the traditional grace period of considerate political transition that the nation needs. The hope of citizens for a better future, for a sense of uplift, has wound up hostage to his impetuous Twitter attacks on individuals, institutions and nations. (snip)
Mr. Obama’s final news conference this week was a study in the sort of intelligent public speaking on complex issues that has characterized his eight years of scandal-free governance. It was leavened with a bit of self-deprecation, as Mr. Obama referred to “No-Drama Obama†in noting his own optimism, as if mindful of the years of melodramatics that might follow.
Yeah, no scandals, because the media failed to do its job. And just whining peevishness at the NY Times, which continues with
- Donald the Unready
- How Not to Be Afraid (which yammers about Nazis and Goering and then moves to Trump, of course)
- Obama Shouldn’t Go Quietly
- Speaking Truth to Trump on Immigration
And plenty more meltdowns.
Robert De Niro and Alec Baldwin, along with Michael Moore, are having continued meltdowns. Democrats are upset that Trump is calling for deep spending cuts. John Zeigler is assigning blame for Trump being elected, and saying those people should be blamed for the doooooooom to come. The LA Times is telling people how to stop Trump.
The Girl Scouts are being blasted by the Usual Suspects for daring to be involved with the Inauguration. Perhaps they should be careful, because Lefties love to get violent to the point of getting pepper sprayed.
We’re up to 66 weenie Democrats planning to skip the inauguration. When they come calling for things, like budget measures for their districts, they should be told “no.”
Examples of Liberal meltdown is everywhere. Here’s a cute one from the Boston Globe: Trump doesn’t like a watchdog press. Too bad, we’re here to stay. Except for the lat 8 years.
Fortunately, this occurs on a Friday, so, Democrats have all weekend to scream their little hearts out, set off smoke bombs, blow whistles, get maced, get arrested, leave litter everywhere, scuffle with the police, then head home realizing that the good jobs are coming back so they best get their resumes ready.

One Congressman said that if you’d heard the Congressional Classified Briefings about trump and Russia, you’d also skip it.
Do you really advocate punishing those districts whose Representatives refuse to worship trump?
#tyrant
Vlady Putin stole Robert Krafts Superbowl ring….Wanna rub the lefts face in the dirt? Trump should ask for it and get it back for Kraft….
I mean after all Putin loves nothing better then to take on the left who have suddenly found a new villian in the world……..
You know that same KGB and Russian/USSR that the right was so opposed against for decades and the left ignored.
One Congressman said that if you’d heard the Congressional Classified Briefings about trump and Russia, you’d also skip it.
But the report also attributed Russia’s efforts to Putin’s hostility toward Clinton, a former senator and secretary of state whom he blamed for inciting mass protests against his government in 2011 and 2012.
This is the single most important reason why Putin got involved in the US Election….because Obama is a spineless coward with no dick who cow towed to Russia….drew lines in the sand and when they were crossed stepped backwards and drew another line…until the USA is at the edge of a cliff with no more step backwards to take.
Putin hates the left in this country……the left on the other hand largely ignored RUSSIA and PUTIN…UNTIL……OMG…they realized that PUTIN stabbed them in the back with this stuff…..Now all of a sudden Russia is the biggest boogie man in the history of the world……..Something the right has been saying for decades…..
Just now catching up are ya??
I’m actually enjoying watching the liberal meltdown.
Lame,
You’re making even less sense than usual. You believe that Putin supports the right, who’ll be tough on Putin, because he hates the spineless left who let him get away with stuff?? Are you really saying that Putin wanted trump because he wanted a tougher president??? LOL. You’re deluded.
Putin wanted trump because Putin has leverage over trump and trump is his little bitch. Period. They will each get richer over US/Exxon/Russia oil and gas deals.
Your mistress disagrees with you on the size of President Obama’s dick. She said it’s just right and that it’s NOT a myth what they say about Black men! On the other hand, one of trump’s hookers described his penis as the size of a grape.
But the report also attributed Russia’s efforts to Putin’s hostility toward Clinton, a former senator and secretary of state whom he blamed for inciting mass protests against his government in 2011 and 2012.
Your funny as you defend Obama…..No one ever talks race here but you….You are as spineless as Obama and have an obsession with racism that oozzeess from every post you write…..Its clear that someone took your ball away when you were a child and you have been traumatized every since……
I have a friend who deals with those kinds of issues….Im sure he/she can fix you right up…give you some anti-depressants and penis extenders and youll be good to go.
Just a few more hours now Jeffery and the Whimp in chief will be gone and we will have a real man with a real pair in charge….and his first order of business is to levy taxes on your corporation and to charge the IRS with auditing your books for the next 4 years….so you better take that hooker account off the books right now……..Cause when those in charge find out your making 10 dollars an hour and post on the internet all day long…..there gonna wanna cut your pay.
Lame,
You’re making even less sense than before. Are you really advocating that the new president trump use the power of the state the punish opponents? How fascist of you. But it’s consistent with the NewCon mindset.
You seem obsessed with “manliness”. What evidence do you have that trumpski is “manly” with a real pair of testicles? His constant “manly” frown? His abuse of women? His draft dodging?
trump turned one fortune into another fortune, cheating and stealing along the way. I’ll pay more taxes when trump pays his fair share.
No its what you believe he will do….Im just mimicking what your thinking by putting it in words for you.
Bill Gates Stole Windows from APPLE…did you know that?….He Stole DOS from IBM……did you know that……
Bill Gates is a Democrat……His company has been sued repeatedly all over the globe……..Is he evil? He has had anti-trust after anti-trust violations against his company….Been sued a bazillion times….IS HE EVIL?
Oh, please. They’d find an excuse no matter what. Democrats are great with democracy and transition of power as long as they are the ones in charge. Otherwise, they have hissy fits like toddlers.
Nah, they’re already punishing themselves by electing those geniuses to represent their districts.
IRS scandals, OSHA investigations, theft of intellectual properties, etc were the hallmark of the left under Obama.
Suddenly Jeffery finds that tactic wrong – well, wrong if anyone but the left does it.
The left seems to think that when they win an election, the right has to “get to the back of the line” and shut up because “elections have consequences.” When the right wins an election, the left believes the elected official has to reach out across the aisle to create some sort of consensus to govern the way the left wants.
You cannot argue with the disconnect of leftist thinking.
gc,
Your schtick is to ignore the question and talk about former President Obama. Why is that?
The question was whether president trump would use the power of the state to punish opponents. Instead you lie about the previous administration.
News flash: trump is now the US president.

You Lie! LOL. The dems are acting like the Rethugs did for 8 years. Get used to it.

I personally hope that he gets to do what he says he will do…..
Infrastructure spending……rebuilding the inner cities…..bring back good jobs and secure the border and put sanity back into the immigration system…….
As for eliminating Islamic terror….lololol….good luck with that one……
Did anyone notice OBAMAS LAST MAJOR ACTION AS PRESIDENT WAS TO BOMB TWO TARGETS IN SYRIA AND LIBYA USING B-2’s and B-52’s…..not drone strikes……
A parting shot at Putin more then anything else…..I applaud him for doing it.
Because it illustrates your hypocrisy. You were fine with the actual attacks on opponents by the Obama administration. Now you are scared and worried about hypothetical attacks by the Trump administration.
The difference is clear to all. You don’t care what Obama actually did, but are lying about why Trump may do.
That wasn’t the question at all.
You seem to have forgotten what you wrote. Let me refresh your memory. In your first post, you asked:
Whether anyone here would advocate such a use of power is not the same as whether Trump would use that power.
Even so, you still gloss over the fact that will Obama was in office you advocated his use of power to punish people with whom he (and you) disagree.
The OIG found that the Obama administration had targeted groups and individuals that were opposed to Obama and his policies.
No one has lied but you.
This from the little guy who lied about dervish in the Army among other things.

Really? Perhaps you can give us the links to the video and news reports of the bitterly disappointed Republicans rioting and smashing car and store windows and blocking traffic and generally just going ape on January 20, 2009? I mean, I’d really like to see that information.

Considering what those districts are like, it would seem that a lot of them are already punishing themselves. A lot of those districts are poor, high crime areas.
Of course, I wouldn’t say that the Democrats who did attend were exactly “worship(ing)” the new President. It’s just that they had (slightly) more class than some.
Trump is off to a GREAT start.
