Well apart from brown noser Vivek?

All the black and brown fellas trying to live vicariously through DJT, I dare you to try to get away with the sh!t he gets away with. Is P Diddy and R Kelly fate for you.

Self hate is a disease.

If the man saying he wants immigrants from Norway not from shitholes wasn't enough to turn your stomach. I don't know what will. If the birther movement against the first colored presidential candidate didn't turn your stomach ..I don't know what will. If the immigrants taking 'black jobs' didn't turn your stomach ..I don't know what will. If the central park 5 shenanigans didn't turn your stomach...ditto

America will be great AGAIN soon ...back to Jim Crow or before?

In terms of number of people affected and discriminated against, the LGBQT movement pales in comparison to this 'preserve the whiteness' agenda where the white male subjugates everyone else, with willing idiotic brown and black people aiding and abetting them over relatively harmless nonsense.

The agenda is so damn obvious.

DJT's idea of ending wars is that one party just totally overrides/ overwhelms the other and the losers become subjects.

Colored people supporting this lunatic helps me understand why slavery was so 'successful'.

Let's move on comrade.

We will have sufficient time to frown upon the criminality, have a hearty laugh at the impending comedy, gaze in awe of the ridiculous decision making and importantly, create a space for our returning nationals.

Trump is large and incharge. We haffi respect the will of the electorate.

Even though not a Cabinet position, I think he'll re-appoint that lisp-tongued guy (ok, brother) Jerome Michael Adams as Surgeon General.

The Trump sweep is interesting in the following ways
Within the margin of error Kamala 73M votes Trump 76m
"Swing states such as GA, AZ, NC Trump won by 50-53%

Republicans win elections via Voter Suppression through unjust laws and or fears eg reducing polling stations in certain areas and cultural issues
The Trump Campaign has been rightly credited with getting higher percentages of certain groups. But, what's not mentioned is what% of those groups didn't vote at all, voted for other parties (Jill Stien) and what % wrote in a candidate.
I think The American Story has chapters to come.

Absolutely rubbish with y'all Identity Politics y'all lefties are concerned with.

Trump selected a cabinet to clean the swamp.

I am more focused of whether they will be able to achieve this.

This non-educated is so foolish he is mentioning "swamp" again.

How did Trump fare in draining the swamp in his first term?

Only a wazzock would venture to mention Trump and swamp in the same sentence, evoking memories of a failed president.

In this day and age you talking token?

Why do you continue to believe in this "hand out and social welfare" mentality?

According to AI:
A token appointment is a symbolic action that gives the appearance of diversity or inclusion, but doesn't address the issue at its root. For example, a company might make a token appointment by hiring a small number of people from underrepresented groups to create the impression of equality.


A merit-based appointment is a selection process that chooses candidates based on their qualifications, skills, and abilities to perform a job, rather than other factors. Merit-based appointments are free from political influence and are intended to strengthen the integrity of public institutions.


So I ask a simple question. Token or Merit?

Sarcasm apparently lost. Oh well. I give up. Desperation to bow to the Emperor is a sad thing to behold.

I am not surprised though...you really have to abandon sense to ignore all the HARD evidence before you.

Trump said he didn't want any American citizens; he just wanted their votes.

Why, now that he is fulfilling promises , why the gnashing and wailing?

He is doing what he said he would do...

America is now getting what its voters wanted.
