Trump Presidency Predictions Thread - Page 22 - Politics and Economics

You're so full of **** or not actually paying attention to the world willfully lol.

The mother****ing KKK is holding a victory rally in NC. You had people voting for Trump who very much believed his racist diatribes.

Whats your point exactly? This is nothing but a cool story. He obviously did not know why there is an electorate. I mean is any of us really surprised by that? I'm not

I am not cherry picking anything. I simply look at the evidence. Trump has made plenty of remarks stating that he is against gay marriage. His VP is mike pence who is one of the most anti lgbt politicians in the country. the republican party platform includes claims that they will end gay marriage.

given the power the republicans have, it will be trivially easy for them to end gay marriage.

Are you stupid? The point is literally that his words mean nothing, and it's a fairly obvious point.

I will own up to voting for Trump but what am I owning up to exactly? He isn't even president yet and has not done a thing. No one knows if he is going to be a good or bad president. It is all your opinion which you are entitled to unlike us Republicans who are not entitled to opinions.

Also Clinton has flip flopped her views far more than Trump ever has.

In the words of your beloved Obama, "She will say anything and change nothing"

changing nothing would be an excellent result. our country was trending on a great path. unemployment declining, market going up, wealth increasing, universal health care helping the poor to become much healthier and live longer, rights for minorities increasing and staying protected.

I really just dont get why yall think that trump is going to do the exact opposite of what he campaigned on.

I really just dont get why yall think the republican party is going to do the exact opposite of what their platform includes and the agenda they have pursued in the past and have been currently pursuing.

its a fact that the economy is doing well. its a fact that unemployment is down. its a fact that crime is very very low. its absurd that you think you and ppl like you think that an opinion thinking otherwise has any sort of value.

The President-Elect, or whoever controls his Twitter account, has changed the tune a bit.

Quote:

Love the fact that the small groups of protesters last night have passion for our great country. We will all come together and be proud!

He also said it was an 'honor' to meet President Obama, who is 'a good man.' (Whereas The Don's toxic UK mate Nigel Farage, the original and genuine 'Mr Brexit', has just called the President a 'loathsome creature.' Then again Farage has never got elected to the British Parliament and last time he tried he got handed the breeze.)

I predict that most people on here will be wrong on their predictions just as they were wrong about the election.

will be interesting to watch how he handles press access early on. will be a sign of how authoritarian he's really going to be. that video on the last page did not bode well.

Who he fills in his cabinet with will tell us a lot about what will happen during Trump's term.

If he's bringing GOPe politicians into his cabinet from the past which seems likely given who has been supporting him (Gingrich, Giuliani etc), then I wouldn't expect more than Dubya 2.0. No way the GOPe Congress and his own cabinet are going to let him go hog wild.

On the other hand if he starts bringing in other outsiders to fill in his cabinet such as his own family, things could get really dicey really fast.

Trump ran his campaign on making america great again not on hate

Clinton ran her campaign trying to project how terrible of a person Trump actually campaigning on hate

It isnt hard to see this.

Nominates sister for SCOTUS

Some metrics get worse (Unemployment, crime, etc...) but he points to the numbers he said as facts which makes the real numbers look better.

Literally the founder of ISIS.

I agree, we don't know what he's going to do. I'm sure Sean Hannity has his ideas. Maybe he's right, maybe BYN is.
