Re: The election
Can't stump the TRUMP
In other news, I'm loving all of the salt everyone on here and Twitter has. It's great keep it coming. EDIT: btw, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is up over 310 points the past 2 days. So much for that stock free fall everyone was talking about. This is probably what brits felt during Brexit you guys will be fine. 2nd EDIT: http://mobile.wnd.com/2016/11/celebs...-if-trump-won/ buh-bye! Last edited by Deadlyx39; 11-10-2016 at 10:18 AM.. |

Re: The election
Thunderf00t sums up my concerns pretty well (and the pettiness of calling people salty over this)

Re: The election
Our planet is fine. It didn't really matter that Obama supported climate change action, and it won't matter if Trump doesn't.
The economy moves waaaay faster than politics, and the country is seeming to move in a way so that renewable prices are gonna become cheaper than fossil fuels (even natural gas) real quick. No other issues really matter in the context of global warming, so all the dumbasses on social media can screw off in their echo chambers. Trump is OK. |

Re: The election
Let's just hope you're right and all those scientists who devote their lives to studying climate change and its projected outcome are wrong (..). Other matters of science still concern me though. The fact that he's so anti-science, or at least willfully ignorant, doesn't sound some alarm bells?

Re: The election
Excuse me for my ignorance, but how effective would the checks and balances be if the White House is filled with Trump's top personal picks? Aren't they the people who would tend to disagree with him the least? Still, I have faith that there will be people that will be smart enough to temper his wilder decisions, but I wonder about this.
And if it ends up being another case of many laws not getting passed, it also makes you wonder how much will actually be accomplished in the next 4 years... |

Re: The election
Seriously. I don't like Trump, but I would much rather have him in office than Clinton. I'm hoping our health care system will get fixed along with the military cuts.
I didn't know black people were rednecks either.

Re: The election
The executive branch includes all of trump's appointees and cabinet members. The legislative branch is congress, these people are NOT appointed by Trump. The judicial branch is all federal courts but more importantly the Supreme court . These justices are appointed for life so that they are not biased to electoral or party pressure. These 3 branches check eachother. Trumps appointees dont check eachother.

Actually, that is a personal reason, but you implying it's not "real" is a load of white privilege (go ahead, call me a cuck like I fuckin care) bullshit.

And the checks and balances thing, aren't all branches Republican-dominated now? http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-n...108-story.html That seems to suggest so. But even still, like someone else mentioned, just because Congress is majority aligned with Trump's party doesn't mean they will support/pass legislation he wants passed. -o24

I like how you're equating protesting Trump with not being civilized. I mean, yeah, just be civilized and accept a leader whose views could lead to severely limiting or even life-threatening situations for a variety of people. Be respectful of his views! edit: I'm not saying I agree with the protests. He hasn't done anything worth protesting yet. But I understand where the anger comes from. Electing a leader who threatens to take away rights such as marriage equality or affordable healthcare is something I'd be scared of/pissed about as well if it happened in my country.
