It's not like we're going to wake up Saturday morning and suddenly find we're now living in a theocracy. The religious right has already been heating the water in which the frog sits, it's just that now they'll turn the heat way up. We may not even notice the next few incremental steps taken, but after a certain point the frog won't be able to jump out of the pot, and it'll be boiled until the meat falls off the bones.

I also expect that sometime during the next 4 years either we will use nukes or we will push our enemies to use them. After all, we've always been at war with East Asia...

And besides, Chump's not going to be America's president, he'll be the CEO of America, inc., so he'll do whatever he thinks is good for profit, just like any other capitalist CEO.

I have had frog legs.  Not much to-do about.  Maybe voters legs will be better? ;-)  Been waiting for flash fried Americans my whole life.

After lax security by Podesta and DNC (and probably Hillary) led to it being posted there ;-)  No need to hack President Trump ... he puts his thoughts right out there on Twitter.

[Baruch]

There have been some worrying barbs exchanged between Trump and China with China preparing to retaliate to a possible trade war.  Whoever was idiot enough to think that a Trump administration would ease tensions with other countries is in for a rude awakening.

Give him a Nobel Peace Prize freebie and everything will be all right ;-)

You should be doing that for the coup-de-etat led by Washington and Franklin against the Articles of Confederation ;-)  The current Constitution originated as part of a coup.

tommorrow the guy with less brains in his head than the average 16 yr old working at mc donalds, is gonna sit in the big chair.

short evaluation: the biggest security threat to the U.S. is Donald Trump. hope we can get off this ride in one piece.

Many of my cousins are refusing to believe they put an immigrant in the White House. This is going to be a sadistic kind of fun for the next four years.

They do what they want.  The CIA doth protest too much.

Yeah, unlike Bernard Baruch, who tried to keep The Bomb out of anyone's hands but America's.



Different Baruch, I guess...

There's been a coup d' etat all right - a corporate coup d' etat. With Exxon's CEO in the state department, they'll have America, inc.'s whole military apparatus to help them make even more money. And Chump wants to beef that military up even more than it already is.

Trump on Tillerson: "He Goes into a Country, Takes the Oil, Goes into Another Country…"
