President Trump

[rushmc 23]

It appears the deplorable, strong women and those called garbage voted as patriots.

 

Congrats Donald J Trump!

[rushmc 23]

And he is winning the popular vote right now as well

Honestly it’s a disgrace. Welcome to the misogynistic, racist theocracy of America. 

He won’t be President Trump for long, JD  Vance and the other snakes will oust him.

Hi Nigel,

A total disgrace.

I fear for my country.

While I predicted this result I had dearly hoped I was wrong.

I feel sad for my friends who didn’t support him and the consequences they will face. As for the people who voted for him, they will get what they deserve.

Nah; ousting your boss was patented by the Dems this year. Reps cant re-use it.

But; feel free to play any slur card on your fellow Americans other than actual political policy reasons . It's an SC tradition.

Not an American - just collateral damage as part of the rest of the world as a consequence of poorly educated, racist and misogynistic people. 

I’ve asked time and again here for any policies of Trump and it’s been crickets.

Therein lies your mistake. SC is so far left that most here would not be aware of any good one's since their preferred news media never reports them. You could pick a few of Kamala's later policies (build more wall, no tax on tips) as they are poached from Trump policies. Alternatively you can rely on brent for more examples or consult conservative media sources.

But we can't ask you? You won't give any examples of the Trump policies people are voting for, despite saying we should be talking about policy?

With all the sources independently available to you, free of any spin I could put on them, would you really still want to ask me?  (as with yourself, I'm not even American). You'd be making the same mistake as nigel99.

I’ve asked Brent numerous times and he was about as forthcoming as you are

There should be a prize or a free jump ticket or something for a Trump supporter who is able to articulate a policy

I'm no more a Trump supporter than you are a Harris supporter. It's a conservative vs progressive choice and those were the two names on the ticket. However; it's impressive that yourself and jakee made it through university being unaware of research sources outside of dz.com. With Trump's win today the further debate of his policies becomes moot for me, at least for a while.  I'm content to leave the hard-left here to do what they do best; remain in a fantasy bubble which they believe to be 'moderate' and 'mainstream' and piss into the wind as the USA, and indeed the affected world, now carry on without them.

Apparently you are unaware that the purpose of this forum is to discuss things. I can't talk to a news source, I can (at least try to) talk to you.

You just said we shoud talk about policy instead of slurs - you have been directly asked several times now to talk about policy and are instead throwing ad hom slurs against the people asking you to. The only reasonable conclusion is that you won't talk about policy because you can't talk about policy.

It’s pretty sad that we can’t have a debate. I’ve said multiple times I like being in exposed to other points of view.

And it is that condescending attitude that fired up rural and working class voters resulting in Trump’s victory. CONGRATULATIONS!

An elegant solution to immigration that should get the support of the enlightened Left is as follows:

1) No wall.

2) Anyone found to be in the country illegally is given the option of immediate deportation or sex reassignment surgery.

3) Anyone previously deported who is found back in the country illegally gets sex reassignment AND subsequent deportation.

Like minefields, whose purpose is dissuasion rather than injury or death, you only need to have a couple of well publicised cases to reduce the flow of illegals to a trickle.

I should think only trans-phobic fascists would oppose such an approach.

From a pragmatic perspective you should realize why those attacks do not work and will never work.

This is amazing and worth the price of cringing through other posts.

You haven’t listened to anything Trump has said at any point in this campaign?

Trump has followed the dictator play book to the letter.

1. Promise simple solutions to complex problems 

2. Create a group to hate and blame for all problems

3. Use the threat of violence to discourage freedom of expression and manipulate voters 

The US has lost credibility in the eyes of the world, its elected a diaper wearing nut job who simulates oral sex on a microphone.

I doubt it is the ‘end of the US’, but it’s definitely a significant marker on a downward spiral. Welcome to 3rd world levels of corruption where Trumps mates are above the law and get rewarded for it. 

I’ve said all along Trump would win, I’m going to put another stake in the ground and say that within 2 years he will either voluntarily step down or be forced out.

I think that's part of the secret; it doesn't really matter what you say, as long as you make everyone feel good about themselves.
