Last night, I started a thread outlining my complaints about how stupid Hillary's campaign was. It came down to the fact that people like myself were never going to vote for her, because we felt completely alienated by her and the Democratic party. "Normal", non-LGBQT, white people have been made to feel like villains simply for being born white. They allowed the despicable BLM and the far left, safe space needing crazies to become their mouthpiece, and in the process made an entire voting bloc feel completely unwanted.

This board was right all along. Congratulations, especially to those of you who were genuinely on board from the very beginning.

The reason I've started another thread is to share with you a feeling that I guarantee you a lot of Americans are feeling right now. I have been very concerned for a long time that this country was moving way too far to the left - and at a pace that was simply hard to comprehend. This morning I woke up feeling excited about having my voice back - as a middle class white male - if that makes sense.

I did not like Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, but I expected Hillary to win going away. And I was dead arse wrong. I am hopeful for a successful Trump Presidency that benefits all Americans.

I sincerely hope so, at least to some small extent. And what an ironic, perfect way for it to come to an end - at the conclusion of the most divisive campaign in modern American history. I hope both sides learned a valuable lesson.

It will be interesting to watch what the democratic party does. Do they even have it in them to "move to the middle" at this point? It's hard to see anyone there with even an inkling to do so. It seems most think going full bore on socialism (a lot of folks whining about Bernie not being given a shot) is the winning ticket.

It's going to get worse before it gets better. Dims have been conditioned to get what they want. There will be quite the extinction burst when the expected rewards cease coming.

You're spot on brother. This wasn't an aesthetic choice about what color curtains we wanted. This was a structural choice about the very serious cracks in the foundation.

Up to Trump now to fix them. He has an incredible, almost incomprehensible, mandate, but he's proven in the last few weeks to be a true patriot and truly gracious in victory.

I think this guy really is a modern day patriot. Let's help him get the job done

He deserves a clean slate and a shot to get the job done. I hope he's given a chance by the American people, for the better good of the American people. I am rooting for him to do well - as that benefits everyone.

Unfortunately, it works too well ... and it's all the Dems have left. Going to take a while to win back the Union Whites that they took for granted for so long.

Not only took for granted, but they also turned coal, steel, and plant workers in general into villains by allowing the far left nutcases to be their voice as it relates to the environment. You've got a huge group of people who have done nothing but work hard at the job they've got - being made to feel like there's an entire political party that hates them. That's not a recipe for success.

Saw this earlier...maybe it will make you feel better:

Britain: BREXIT was the most shocking thing any country has done to itself in recent history.

USA: Hold my beer and watch this.

This.

The PC movement has turned a lot of Americans off. She talks about an "inclusive" America, but she alienated a huge part of the country and even openly called them racist, xenophobic, sexist, and deplorable.

fantastic message and well put sir

here are my comments from last night

quote:

It's time to tone down the rhetoric, it's time to reach out & heal the wounds

This has been fun

But it's time to really make America great again

That means for EVERYBODY

I will have much more on this tomorrow, I was against Trump in the primaries, so I guess that makes me a "reformed cuck"

Fine - I will use this (and other) formats to push an agenda for a better America and a better future

Good night and sleep well fellow patriots - gird your loins for mercy and understanding of those that are devastated by tonight's results - we need them to make things better


______

We can enjoy this, and we can "gloat" for a day or two maybe (I won't)

But that does NOTHING to help make America great again

MOST of us pride ourselves on our "Christian values"

NOW is the time to demonstrate that

Was this about beating down the opposition, or was it about creating a better life for ourselves & our families? Is a better future for our progeny the end game?

We've saved the country and saved SCOTUS

It is incumbent upon us as the victors to find a way to make things better

Again, that's all I have tonight

MUCH more coming tomorrow



PS - I'm all about "draining the swamp"

And the constant media barrage of propping the PC mindset up.

The world would be a better place if such phrases as "triggered", "safe space", and "microaggresions " never existed.

You are correct, sir.

Very well said. Same reason I changed my vote to Trump yesterday right before I voted. Hope I don't regret it. I have voted for a democrat every election until this one.
