Trump! How did this happen?
Brendan O'Neill


It happened because you banned super-size sodas. And smoking in parks. And offensive ideas on campus. Because you branded people who oppose gay marriage ‘homophobic’, and people unsure about immigration ‘racist’.

Because you treated owning a gun and never having eaten quinoa as signifiers of fascism. Because you thought correcting people’s attitudes was more important than finding them jobs. Because you turned ‘white man’ from a description into an insult. Because you used slurs like ‘denier’ and ‘dangerous’ against anyone who doesn’t share your eco-pieties.


Because you treated dissent as hate speech and criticism of Obama as extremism. Because you talked more about gender-neutral toilets than about home repossessions. Because you beatified Caitlyn Jenner. Because you policed people’s language, rubbished their parenting skills, took the **** out of their beliefs.

Because you cried when someone mocked the Koran but laughed when they mocked the Bible. Because you said criticising Islam is Islamophobia. Because you kept telling people, ‘You can’t think that, you can’t say that, you can’t do that.’

Because you turned politics from something done by and for people to something done to them, for their own good. Because you treated people like trash. And people don’t like being treated like trash. Trump happened because of you.

Unfortunately...like every other president...he won't do half of what he promised.

If he does half of what he promised, he is doing better than Obama. First he has to clean up Obama's mess and take out the garbage, before he can get into the kitchen and start cooking. One business day aboard and he has already out-shined previous holders of that position. I'll give him a few weeks before I start criticizing his performance. So far, he has shown that he works harder than the majority of people younger than him.

Just Like I did for Obama, I will give Trump until his first state of the union,
before making a statement about how he does or does not operate.

My position on Obama after one year was that if he were in corporate America he would not have made it to year two just based on promises made vs promises kept. He demonstrated in year one that when he talked or preached or lectured on any given subject.......he had addressed the issue......talk only no change.

The current hour by hour/day by day of picking the fly crap out of the pepper on ANY non-sensical issue by the media and parroted by the losing dems is just plain old school tard, non value added, poor loser bantoring!

How old are you Bille? How many elections have you witnessed? Obama was the FIRST you noticed "not doing everything they promised"? They ALL make a lot of promises that they have no intention of keeping. They tell you what you want to hear because THEY want to be the guy elected, the guy making the easy money, getting the perks of holding office. They're ALL psychopaths...saying whatever it takes.

Maybe that's why a doer got elected, could be that
millions were tired of empty promises!
Hope you didn't vote for Hillary thinking it would be different!

I voted for neither...and it won't be different...not TOO different. I truly hope he IS the misogynist/racist everyone says he is, we need to undo 50 years of damage caused by affirmative action and quotas. He MUST deport ALL the illegals AND their "illegal" anchor babies.

Or the country is literally lost.

You think I'm kidding you? Hispanics are 1/3 the population NOW and they're the majority below the age of 7. They've been coming in and dumping anchor babies for over 30 years. Those kids are having kids. We're being overrun...bred out of our own country.

If you believe that the US is 70% white...they've snookered you good. They've been counting Hispanics as whites...hiding their numbers. Out of that 70% they've slowly been replacing us...it's now about 40% Hispanic and 30% white. When you get away from the villages area...you really see how America has changed. Go out west and You'll think you're in Mexico.

I love Trump so far and the only criticism I have of him is he needs to learn how to tie a tie. His tie hangs to his fly and should be at belt level. It's always bothered me.

The only way Trump will get his approval numbers above 50% is spend money we don't have and let our grand kids deal with it. Same as Obama did.

Trump is talking about ending the Freeride and putting people back to work. The wackadoodles don't want to go back to work, they just want that check the show up on that certain Wednesday every month. He's not going to get high approval rating...52% of the people are on the "give me", they're all going to be bummed out and ****ed at him.

YOU are finding TRUMP guilty of things that he has NOT done.

RE: your grand kids dealing with it-
Far as I can tell you are talking about OBAMA having doubled the national debt.
I read a lot and try to fit the pieces together. Often it is like putting together several different jigsaw puzzles at the same time.
WE ARE BEING FED DISTORTED INFORMATION BY OUR GOVERNMENT AND BY OUR PRESS.
First of all, we have been told that China is our largest creditor when actually Japan is. THE REAL SHOCK is that Japan and China together hold 20% of our national debt.
SOCIAL SECURITY HOLDS 42% OF OUR NATIONAL DEBT.
When, did WE who paid into this ponzi scheme agree to this????? We allowed OBAMA to hold our money and he spent it. Talk about crazy-we lent this money to our country with no payback terms-when will it be paid back?
What rate of interest is to be paid? Answer to both questions is our government will pay us back whenever they choose at whatever rate of interest they choose to pay. SOUNDS LIKE NEVER TO ME. I read somewhere that if our country made a concerted effort to pay the national debt it could be done in 40 years. SOUNDS LIKE NEVER TO ME.
What will happen-what must happen is social security benefits will be cut and people will pay more for less.
We just qualified for medicare. Due, to the fact that we earned good money and WE SAVED, we pay twice the minimum for medicare and we have no inflation protection.
Realize what that means. We paid more into social security for 45 years and we get to pay more now.

We keep discussing the national debt. We hear the number TWENTY TRILLION DOLLARS. Most people do not understand what TWENTY TRILLION DOLLARS IS. I am one of the few to realize that it is far more than I can understand.

What did Obama buy with TEN TRILLION DOLLARS? I keep asking the same question and get no replies. I've tried researching it and there are no answers. IS IT NOT A REASONABLE QUESTION? AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO REALIZED IT IS A QUESTION WE SHOULD ALL KNOW THE ANSWER TO. Roads-NOPE, Parks-NOPE, Dams-NOPE, Education-NOPE, Great art-NOPE.
WHERE IS MY/OUR MONEY????????????????????????

You are making up facts, Obama cannot spend money. Congress approved every cent that has been spent by Obama, Bush, etc. The only person responsible is the person looking back from the mirror at you who keeps sending same Senators and Representatives to Washington. I guarantee the next budget passed by Congress will blow up the debt and it will be with Republicans across board.

Is there some reason that you feel approval numbers are more important that getting the job done? Personally, I don't give a rat's @ss if no one "likes" him as long as he follows a conservative agenda. When he deviates to the left, then I will criticize him as much as I criticized Obie.

So far, he is working like there is no tomorrow and that gets my "approval." Those women marchers are so stupid they look ridiculous. They will be forgotten next week. When asked why they are marching, they give stupid answers that obviously come from some liberal talking points. Most of what they say is false, so they are obviously too stupid to hold decent jobs. I verbally spit on them....barf

I guarantee it too! He'll probably double it in 4 years instead of 8.

It's out of control...

They're women...what do you expect? They're driven by emotion and have no idea how the real world works.

Ask a typical woman a question about how something works...you'll get that deer in the headlights look. Ask them about dancing with the stars or a kardashian...and they'll be able to speak about it for hours.

MOST women in high positions are token. Affirmative action or a quota. Women and men are VERY different. We have VERY different abilities.

Not a popular answer but you hit the nail on the head.
