How long will we have to deal with this jackass?

Also, too, free tickets to the inauguration. A lot of people are going to miss their big chance to bow down before his biglyness.

Barring death, at least four years.

Oh, and the polls before the election were right. Trump lost the popular vote by pretty much what they predicted. Problem was, of course, that the US got screwed over by the Electoral College again.

Given the current state of affairs with voter suppression, gerrymandering etc. I would say, either Trump’s death or 8 years. Trump is far far better than Pence/Ryan or other Koch minions.

Of course they are rigged. In his mind. In Trump’s very, very unstable mind. All of the pundit’s efforts to normalize this guy, to await the “pivot” are about to prove fruitless. We have an unhinged, ignorant narcissist about to take the reins of the country, and of the “free world”. The emperor has no filter, no ethics, no critical mind. He’ll start at 40% and will only slide from there.

Again…a two year olds tantrum. Psychoanalyzing the twerp (of which I am not qualified to do in the LEAST) I’d bet that he has no friends and NEVER has had any. That he has a personality defect so great (YUGE even) that no one want to be around him so he’s ‘bought’ them and called it good. With all the acclaim in the last few years he doesn’t ‘understand’ why people STILL don’t like him. He thought the ‘crowds’ meant they did. He thought the election meant they did. But when all is said and done, people STILL think he’s nothing but a jackass whining and sniveling about how GREAT he is…

I’ve seen 12 to 18 months floated around. Midterms are coming up.

So, any news he doesn’t like is “fake,” and any opinion poll that’s negative is “rigged.” He ego is so pathologically paper thin that he can’t admit to the possibility of anyone thinking ill of him.

A true sick-o.

I had high hopes Clinton would win. With a scant few exceptions the entire world of pollsters and polling firms predicted she would win, and win handily. Some outliers cautioned Trump was stronger than being reported, and could win with the right mix of variables. Which he did.
I hate to grant Trump any slack, on anything, but I hardly think scoffing at his derision towards pollsters is fertile territory for lambasting his resistance to accepting reality. He probably really is unpopular. Believing he’s unpopular because pollsters tell us so is something Trump has earned the right to deride.

California doesn’t count. They’re not everyday Americans. And there are too many Mexicans in L.A.!!!. It’s a failed state!!! /s

I wouldn’t count out impeachment or some sort of massive nervous breakdown. Hell, I wouldn’t count out some sort of video leak (Russian pee tapes) that makes his leadership utterly untenable and he resigns.

Alec Baldwin floated 2 Months on SNL. I think Trump quits with one year. This will not be fun for him. Starting with a big surprise for him on Saturday when far more people turn out to protest than show up for his “coronation”. Has any of his staff had the chops to tell him yet?

Is Trump saying the approval ratings are too low, or too high?

One Irish betting site is not giving 4:1 on impeachment within six months. Of course, it’s the same site that paid off “Hillary wins” before the election because there was no chance she’s lose. They lost millions on that.

I think his staff is paid to clap and cheer.

Let me know if this guy says anything surprising or unpredictable - I pretty much have got his rhythms now. Just made a late New Year’s resolution to not waste time commenting on his braying jackass tweets anymore - this is my last one - it is becoming a sick addiction.

Whatever happens, I hope my acquaintance who lost $1.5 million when Trump won on a 200-1 bet, loses again, big:)

Trump has hired Vladimir Putin’s polling firm to unskew these results. Satisfaction guaranteed!

Shit is too bizarre even for Rod Serling
