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.

Maybe your DH realizes that living in a constant state of panic isn't helpful. He is focusing his attention on the things he can control. I'm hoping whatever is in those tax returns will get Trump impeached and thrown out of office.

One does not "remember" things that never were.

2 + 2 =/= 5, and never did

27% =/= 50% =/= half =/= a majority, and never did, so this is not something we can "remember"

Similarly, a country lead by a man behaving this way can not by any definition of the word be called "great" now or even later. The means never justify the end.

I'm sure some German husband thought the same thing about Hitler. "What's the big deal... he's gonna make our country great... who cares if he's deporting a bunch of Jews..doesn't impact us".

OP - the lack of your DH's sympathy is indeed worrying. The fact that this idiot doesn't really understand our Constitution is worrying.

NP here.
OP if it helps I'm still a little worried about President Trump and some of his actions to date, and I voted from him. Honestly he was the devil I didn't know vs the devil I did.

I also didn't like President Bush or President Obama and and how they ran things, but what can you do?

If you feel that strongly then what are you actually doing about it? are you analyzing impacts, and working on contingency plans of are you just sitting around yelling "NOT Fair"

Good, Bad, right or wrong Mr. Trump is the President deal with it, The conservatives survived President Obama you will survive President Trump.

Are you able to articulate how they are detrimental? A lot of liberals seems very emotional right now but unable to discuss what changes have been made or what exactly has happened that they have a problem with. Of course there is the ban on people from seven countries but how is that detrimental to this country? It can only hurt America to let these people in.


Agree 100%. Also, there were Obama policies that conservatives feel were detrimental to this county, yet you didn't see conservatives being disrespectful to the president or whining as if the world was going to come to and end. Rather we made the best of it, continued to love our country and voted when it was time. I find it shocking how liberals are offended that there is at least half the population that disagrees with them on things like border security and abortion. News flash, your view is not the only view and not the current majority.


This is an outright lie. Some conservatives spent the past eight years whining, making threats, trashing Obama, criticizing Michelle, and judging his children. It's silly to pretend that you all threw your hands up in defeat and meekly waited for Obama's term to end.

I am not a Trump supporter but I don't get too worked up about things. The Republic will survive. I am not saying don't protest, don't do your thing, don't do whatever, but people are seriously going off the deep end here. If you are not attracted to your husband because he is also not going off the deep end it is hard to say what to tell you.

Yeah but this is a new level of hysteria that was not seen after Obama got elected. I mean people are apoplectic and I would wager that for 95% of them life will change very little under Trump.

Actually, short of SCOTUS, Republicans did throw their hands up in defeat for 8 years. That's why we have Obamacare and the Iran deal and dozens of crappy policies. No one protested, no one burned anything.

I also kind of find it funny that people pledge support for Israel in an unquestioning manner, including many liberals, but Trump starts acting like Netanyahu and all of a sudden he is Hitler.

I totally get how you feel OP. I was worried about Obama for 8 years. Every time he did an executive order with his pen and phone and all the bad legislation they did. But hey! We survived him. I guess we will survive Trump too!

I disagree. The level of hysteria was comparable, depending on your "status." It may seem different because the steady access to the news and social media was not the same.

But did you do so "quietly" as the PP suggested? No. The level of hate spewed both times Obama was elected is on par with what is happening now. Conservatives were not accepting and silent. To say they were is an outright lie, as I've already stated.
