Discussion: Priebus: Voters Want Trump, GOP To Take US In 'Bold New Direction'

Are you kidding? These are the same assholes who blamed Obama for the BUSH DEPRESSION because the bottom didn’t stop falling out until 2009, which CLEARLY meant that THE OTHER was behind it.

Damn right they’ll blame Obama for this, because facts don’t matter!

The white racist shitkickers wanted him, and now they’ve got him. All hail King Stork. I wish them the joy of him as he gobbles them all down like candy.

No affect on the Trump U trial. Still scheduled for later this month. Investigation into foundation being done by state of NY. Don’t know about Bondi.

Yeah, voters wanted that in 2008, too.

none

Clinton v Jones doesn’t protect Trump. If he has business, his attorneys would have to handle his business, but the Supreme Court has made clear that Trump has no protection from any civil or criminal action.

maybe?

who knows…though

likely no, but Manafort n Page should make sure that their lawyers are on speed dial.

Depends on what the bold new direction is. If the bold new direction is P3s to break the infrastructure funding gridlock, red tape deregulation for small business, and somehow instilling a better service ethic in our public agencies whether through quality control or privatization, then I think voters might take a look. If the bold new direction is warmed-over more-of-the-same, more and bigger tax cuts for the rich, harming and poisoning the environment for private profit, and more gerrymandering of Congress, we will see a) a recession and b) ever uglier voter revolt.

Reince I hope you have cornered the market in toilet paper because we’re headed down the crapper.

So that’s what they are calling fascism these days?

We had the voter revolt yesterday. We are now entering the What Do You Have to Lose phase.

They will create their own Trump Economic Meltdown and blame it on Obama, too.

That’s all water under Christie’s Bridge. It’s what Trump does from now on that is important.

The DNC didn’t keep their eye on the ball and look what it has wrought. I suppose it really doesn’t matter what they do to regroup because Putin has complete access to all their computers and will keep The Fuhrer informed. Donald won’t take his eye off the ball.

Maybe this will all unite us in the end…against fascism.

You have to wonder if the Palin People really think he can do any of the things he said he would do without them losing more of their incomes and life savings. Time will tell. We only have Brownback’s America as a guide to where this is going…and of course, the TARP and Bush Great Recession.

And the Russian Revolution and Stalin.

Is there anyone awake this morning after that long and frustrating Evening in America?. I had to get up and fed the pets.

Everything seems to be still intact but oddly quiet. You would have thought they would be dancing in the streets. There certainly was when Zimmerman got away with killing Travon Martin.

I would have thought they had all traded in their hooded robes for Trump baseball caps.

Actually, pretty sure the bold new direction entails casting a blind eye to hate crimes and police shootings of unarmed people of color, washing Putin’s balls and validating open displays of racism.

And also pretty sure that as long as he gives the AUWP’s the appropriate action against minorities, he can break pretty much every other damn promise he made as long as he gives them appropriate lip service.

The quote below is from one of my former colleagues as to what he thinks and hopes will happen in the Trump presidency:

"With a unified government, it is time for the Republicans to “Kill the Beast”.

Washington needs to be made irrelevant in the daily lives of Americans. It is silly to send money to Washington, and then have to submit matching grant requests to provide for local needs. Keep the money local first, and make your own rules

Most Federal departments need to be shut down.

Agriculture - Not needed. Most states have their own DOA, and they know their own farm resources

Commerce - Only function is to ensure States do not set up barriers to interstate commerce

Defense - Still needed, size and commitments is up for debate. But at least end the draft. No nation based on freedom should be able to place people in involuntary servitude for any reason. If enough people are not willing to serve to protect, we do not need to exist as a nation

Energy - Not needed. DOE has not generated one KW or barrel of oil. Only a raft of regulations. As for the protection and regulation of interstate pipelines or transmission lines this goes to Commerce.

Education - Not needed. Education has only gotten worse.

Health and Human Services - Only function needed is the Public Health department and Center for Disease Control. Even here limit work to communicable diseases. Research into other ills such as diabetes, cancer, MS, MD, etc should end

Homeland Security - Roll any border protection functions into the DOD. Eliminate wasteful programs like TSA.

Housing and Urban Development - Not needed. This should be a local function of each urban area.

Interior - Reduce scope to only those designated National Parks and Memorials. Any other Federal lands, return to the states. Also pay state and local property taxes for any remaining Federal properties instead of letting Congress determine the local impact and voting on impact payments.

Justice - Keep but limit scope. Kill most Federal laws that are duplicates of State laws.

Labor - Not needed. Any function to protect workers rights roll into DOJ

State - Need to keep. Relations with foreign nations is a standard function of any nation

Transportation - Limit to setting standards for US and Interstate highways. States will collect local gas and other revenue to build their own highways. If they want a US or Interstate designation, they have to be built to standard

Treasury - Need to keep to provide fiscal oversight of revenue and spending. Control of currency.

Veterans Affairs - Roll back into the DOD. Let the military take care of their own. Eliminates duplication of effort in services and record keeping.

I could go on into more detail, but this is enough for now."
