monitoring Trump and relevant contemporary events

@layman,

Nah, she's a Berkeley trained lawyer. Her writing is fine. It's her "conservative" values I question.

@layman,

Soon to follow will be statement from leftist leaders claiming that arresting a protester is racist, authoritarian, fascist, and "undemocratic."

All the arsonists, vandals, and brick-throwing wackos will be characterized as "political prisoners." "Free the DC 100" marches (riots) will erupt nationwide.

You really should have put those quotes in there.

I understand your dismay that she would call herself a "conservative". She has, on many occasions, spoken out against Der Fuhrer.

@blatham,

Do you have any opinions of your own, or do you get them all from such media sources?

Do they have such things in Canada? How did Justin Trudeau do in his?

The speech wasn't flowery or vaguely eloquent in the way that many politicians favor today . However it was spare, clear and eloquently direct in its assessment of the moment and the challenges ahead. Certainly it was a vast improvment over the scolding vagueries of Obama and the pandering platitudes Hillary offered in such quantity.

Notable was the complete absence any of the nonsensical group identity BS that so infests most political rhetoric these day. The theme instead was that we're all Americans, united by a common purpose and destimy. Very appropriate and timely.

The sky didn't fall in.

Schumer's remarks in contrast appeared contrived and a bit angry. I wonder why they include him at all.

Soon enough we will see how quickly, wisely and well Trump and the new Congress implement Trump's program. Much that is promising there. We shall see.....

@blatham,

This is a day to remember for many of us.
Some of us Americans are ebullient.
Some of us are hopeful this isn't real in every instance.
Some of us are worried sick.
Some of us will rise up in some way, or ways.

The rhetoric of the shrieky-ass left has all the subtlety, maturity, composure, and rationality of a three year old mongoloid idiot who is hungry and up way past his bedtime.

The Constitution allows protesters to protest, the peaceful ones. I know it goes against some's desires to squash them like rats.

Right on cue, Ed.

But you forgot to explain how "violence" is totally justified when it's a matter of life and death--of war.

A big problem with protesters is few of them know their rights, another problem is about 2 out of 10 of them really care about the cause, the rest are just anarchists and miscreants there to raise hell.

I think we can all agree that any attempt to stop Adolph Hitler, even with as much violence as required, could never be wrong. On the contrary, it would by both obligatory and praiseworthy.

So, then, there ya have it, eh?

There may be bad days ahead for many Americans. As I feel I owe something to this very disturbed country, I am in the process of designing an easy-to-construct citizen weapon. I've named it the Frog-a-pult.

The concept utilizes the dynamic principles of the catapult and leap frog. Imagine a large catapult firing a smaller catapult which after release and now travelling at speed, itself fires the payload like a stone or perhaps something similar like Ann Coulter's adam's apple. We now have Ann's body part moving at Whoosh2. With an even larger version, we could have all of Ann as payload. Just imagine. Whoosh -> Whoosh2 -> splat.

Because I love America.

I'm confident of two things... first that you certainly do not love America and second the only thing you do love is the sound of your own ridiculously sophomoric voice.

I'm a big fan of certain cheeses, mainly from ewe milk: pecorini obviously, but also Manchego and the French version from the Pyrenées. I also like a variety of cow milk cheeses, particularly Comté, Cantal and Camembert...

This thing about Trump rounding and killing cheese-eaters... should I get worried? Should I kill him before he kills me perhaps?

Hmm... a threat against the president's life... Should somebody report him perhaps?

@georgeob1,

For whatever your observations about Trump, he has one of the lowest approval ratings for an incoming president for the past 24 years
However, it's my personal opinion to wait and see how he performs, before affording my opinion about Trump. I only wish he can continue to grow our economy and security, and wish him well.

@giujohn,

thats the problem with conservatives, theyre as funny as intestinal polyps.

Hey, Trump stayed on message today and he was spanking the GOP as much as the dems. SO whats next?
If he can get stuff done without further dividing the country, Ill listen to him. Right now, noobody knows anything about him or what the hell hes up to. SO th GOP supporters have got their fingers crossed and the DEMS, well, were still stinging.

Not possible... A penpal has to know how to write... all blather knows how to do is cut and paste.

@cicerone imposter,

Oh, I forgot to mention that the reason I don't respect Trump is his history of racial bigotry.

@edgarblythe,

The Honorable Richard Daley, Chicago Mayor, had it right back in '68, eh? He gave the cops order to "shoot to kill" any so-called "protesters" who were looting and destroying property.

That should oughtta lern em, eh?
