What exactly makes you right and your husband wrong? |
Do you think the he is running the country competently? He lies all the time (i.e. biggest crowd ever), hires ignorant people, and didn't even get proper review for the muslim ban. I would hardly call a recipe for success. |
Competence is overrated, especially for presidents. The world's a big place. The economy is determined by literally billions of disparate inputs, only a tiny fraction of which can be shaped by the government, let alone the president individually. This is somewhat less true for national defense--fewer inputs and levers so a president has outsized influence. But I think a lazy and pathologically insecure moron iwho just wants to be loved by everyone is ultimately unlikely to have the balls required to actually initiate serious conflict. Go have a beer or something. |
What really has you in shock and awe is that the Democratic party has rendered itself sterile. You are like little slaughtered lambs at his feet. You have a president stronger than ever seen, bolder than weve ever seen, with a backbone of steel who has a majority in congress and is going to sweep the supreme court. And you have a congress and if the MINORITY tries to bolck his nominations they will unleash the nuclear option in the Senate and block a fillabuster. Your only real response is a bunch of hens wearing vagina hats and a plethora of hashtags. |
A casual observation: members of minority groups feel more offended, personally, by Trump than others do because the they are in his cross-hairs. |
Why aren't you letting refugees live in your house? You selfish POS! |
I feel sorry for you. You and your DH voted for someone who is going to tear this country apart. No matter how happy you are surely you can see this? Your language is just as expected for a Trump supporter. Thanks for enforcing the stereotype! Peace |
This isn't true. We are not split 50/50 because you forget all the non-voters: According to the US Elections Project’s count so far, only about 56.9 percent of the voting-eligible population cast a ballot on Election Day. That means 43.1 percent of people eligible to vote just didn’t. (The voter turnout rate will increase over the next few days as the final votes are tallied.) It also means that Hillary Clinton, based on the latest estimates, got a little more than 27 percent of the voting-eligible population’s vote, while Trump got just 27 percent. (Trump won the Electoral College but may have lost the popular vote.) So a little more than a quarter of the voting-eligible population chose the next president. |
We just don't discuss politics at home. We both work in policy, we are both aware of what's going on, but we have other interests to discuss when we are home.

I think trump is doing a great job, maybe your husband does as well. |
Only if the husband is a moron and a bigot. |
TIL: I somehow slipped through a wormhole to a universe where conservatives weren't disrespectful to President Obama.

This. Please get a grip. God, you liberals are REALLY annoying. I know, I know--"but we had to hear this about Obama"--never as bad as it is. It was not the same panic and insanity and complete inundation of social media. YOU need to take a step back and calm the F down. Leave your husband alone and don't talk politics. Talk politics with your girlfriends for a little while. Because the thing is I usually don't mind discussing politics and world issues but the Dems right now are SO SO SO whiny, in-your-face, and incessant about every last little issue and word that is spoken by Trump, that it's hard to take anything you say seriously because you make every bit of minutiae a huge deal. Just. Stop. For the sake of your marriage. |
