Trump inauguration speech: 'Angry', 'authentic', 'primal'
By Kate Dailey
BBC News

Commentator Mary Katherine Hahn thinks voters aren't interested in sweeping rhetoric. "I am unabashedly ideological. The country is not. His message is populist & popular. His opponents dismiss that at their political peril."

Snarky reactions, warned Fox News commentator Guy Benson, underestimate how popular his rhetoric is with Trump supporters. "People panning the speech still don't seem to understand how resonant the 'I will never ignore you' theme has been, and still is," he wrote, referencing Trump's many callouts to those who feel left out of American progress.

"People panning the speech still don't seem to understand how resonant the 'I will never ignore you' theme has been, and still is," he wrote, referencing Trump's many callouts to those who feel left out of American progress.

Author Hugh Hewitt called it "authentic, determined, almost grim". He wrote, "I expected more joy, but it cannot be said that POTUS @realDonaldTrump said anything he hasn't said before. He has a plan and it's going to roll out fast."

One commentator, I've forgotten who right now, said that if you had to pick one word to describe Trump, it would have to be "authentic."

That's the last word you would pick to describe a cheese-eater, eh?

Trump has a history of getting **** done. The opposite of Washington. If that means he has to kick ass and take names, that doesn't bother him in the least. To once again quote good ole Harry Truman:

Quote:

“All the President is, is a glorified public relations man who spends his time flattering, kissing and kicking people to get them to do what they are supposed to do anyway.”

Mad Dog Mattis gets it, eh?

If you had listed American cheese you would have been OK. If you live in the US I would try for Canada as soon as possible.

There's a few decent American artisanal cheeses but they are all copies of French ones.

I don't live in the US anymore, thank God.

What about the liberals who participated in the civil rights movement of the 1950s through the '60s?

One thing about them. They aint no cheese-eaters. At least not the ones who went to Alabama and other southern states to actually participate in the demonstrations.

You're only showing your incredible ignorance by assuming that virtually everyone who opposes Trump is a Democrat.

Quite the contrary. There are probably just as many phony-ass republicans as democrats.

William Buckley would consider you to be vulgar, which you truly are.

Of course he would. He's a straight-up cheese-eater. And, of course, I am admittedly "vulgar."

"vulgar: of, relating to, or current among the great mass of common people, in contrast to the educated, cultured, or privileged; ordinary

Vulgar is a Latin word meaning "common" or "pertaining to ordinary people."

@ossobucotemp,

I take my pecorino semi-stagionato (half ripe?), not fresh. And yes, some of the best ones are from Sardegna.

So "cheese eater" is some older insult, from before W's Iraq war?

I remember when they gave out that cheese which was bought from cheese producers to boost the price. It was a very good grade of cheddar. Every once in a while someone in my town would share some with me. Very tasty.

Some American cheddars are pretty decent indeed.

OK. Time to repeat a fundamental online truism:

Don't feed the trolls. Just don't do it. If you can't abide the sort of posts they write, put them on ignore. But don't respond, and particularly, don't respond in kind. It is how sites like this head towards the bad place.

Your online personality (i.e., your writing style) mocks ignorant blacks (as if there aren't any ignorant whites).

Then why would you think I am "mocking" blacks instead of whites, I wonder?

Why would you think I am mocking any race?

Just more typical race-baiting, that it?

The Latin word is "volgus"/"vulgus, and that means "mob", sometimes "common folk".
Vulgar is Middle English, from the medieval Latin vulgaris (meaning sam as above)

Technically, I think layman is against the mesophilic cheeses like brie. I dont think hes against the thremophilics like Parmesan because that would be a racist slap against spaghetti. I dont think hes against Cheddaring also, otherwise hed be against the cheeseburger.

He drinks a lot of MAd Dog 20 20 so he often gets to hallucinating but any "manly cheese" he is for, (these go well with MAd Dog and pretxels) Ill have to ask him when hes sober.

Is he still doing that " illiterate black guy " impersonation??

Is it even possible to get raped by a block of Velveeta?? That would explain a lot though.

I have him on ignore so the only way he exists is when he gets referenced like your humorous recognition of his "Anti-Cheesite persona"

OK, Walt, I'll take your word for that. I aint really knowin no kinda latin, my own damn self. I made the mistake of quoting wiki (without giving credit) in that last sentence.

@farmerman,

The only "cheese" I can abide by is Cheez-Whiz, eh, Farmer? I like to stick the nozzle of a can of that **** half way down my throat and open it up, full throttle.

It's genuine imitation cheese, ya know? Goes great with Mad Dog and crackers.

You mustn't take my word but a look in a dictionary better instead of consulting an encyclopaedia.
