    The sowing the seeds of division come from the left who are trying to change this country to one party rule with them being that party.

    No it didn't. I can say firmly as a foreigner that your country's partisanship has been fuelled vociferously by both sides for years. You just can't see it because you're too wrapped up in your partisan bubble. But it's plain as day to any neutral.

    So, I ask again, you got your man, now what do you have to achieve by creating and maintaining divisions....which you are unquestionable doing with your rhetoric today?

    You can't compromise or deal with the American left. They are liars. Backstabbers.

    We are in a political civil war in this country. The left has taken it upon itself to turn America into a one party state. Much the same way it has done in California where their grip is so strong that Republicans don't even bother running for office in a lot of places.

    It's time to put an end to it. We can have two party system or a multi-party system which would be better IMHO. What we can not have is the progressives crushing all political opposition and turning America into a one party country.

    All the fools who think that the destruction of the Republican party would result in the Libertarians stepping into the void are going to be in for a shock because the progressives on the left will destroy them as well. Same even for the Green party.

    For far too long the left has been winning this war because the Republicans refused to even acknowledge it is happening. Witness how Republicans control the Senate and yet Harry Reid walked all over the Republicans like they were nothing.

    "now what do you have to achieve by creating and maintaining divisions"

    Using the lefts playbook because I don't agree with them but they sure as hell know how to win political fights.

    One thing I'll say for Bush is that he was always crystal clear that the war on terror was not a war on Muslims, and drooling idiot tha he was, he did seem to believe he was truly liberating those countries.

    In her defense, a proven anti LGBT governor has just become Vice President. She has more reason to seek refuse across the border than I have.

    Well, fuck.

    Unless we take the whiny bitch at his word. If this election was "rigged," he needs to give it back.

    Them's fighting words. Are you sure you mean them?

    I guess you do. I don't think you were conscious during much of the last 16 years or you wouldn't come to this conclusion.

    Yesterday I was sure the GOP had self-destructed under the weight of bigoted hatred spewed by its talking heads: I was wrong. They have transformed into something different. No less ugly than before, but with rebranding under Trump. This will lead to a political civil war within the GOP (if it hasn't already). The splintering of the GOP will give you the third party you want even if it empowers the left to make adjustments in edit: 2018
    I wish us good luck.

    Wow. This was unexpected. Gonna need to dig in and see what went wrong.

    Only positives are local. Most importantly that ST3 passed. It's something I've been working on for 5 years and at $54B is the largest transit package in US history. The state also passed a $13.50 minimum wage and paid sick leave, so highest in the nation. So locally things went great but nationally going to shit.

    Maybe for a change you can see why the fedgov has no business being so monolithic. In this case, a smaller fedgov would've made both of us happier citizens, go figure.

    At 50 per cent of its current size (ignoring the scope of intrusion into daily life and roles far beyond what was ever anticipated for fed gov sprawl into what should be purely local matters) it would still be double the size of where the fedgov should be.

    The people I really feel sorry for now are the worlds comedians and political satirists.
    No matter what anyone writes, no matter how good the sketches and scripts are, no matter how nuanced the performances.... NOTHING will be as side splittingly funny as just watching the news :)

    Can you imagine the first important meeting of world leaders with Trump there? I can't wait,... it will be like George W again... but ten times better :techman:

    Well, I'm glad you think the most power position in the world is a source of great comedy.

    I'm not sure I do.

    Yeah I think you dreaming a little too hard.

    Your hatred of Trump literally clouds your thoughts.

    Trump is a businessman. A successful one. He knows how to behave in meetings.

    You're not likely to get your comedy from him doing something at a meeting.

    So the worlds comedians need not fear as they will have plenty of work to do.

    If this man is half what he purported to be in his campaign then he is a lot more dangerous and a lot less comedic than Dubya, and remember that Dubya lunched a bullshit war which killed thousands.
