Stupid election backlash

[boyst]

And Trump didn't defeat a black man, and they're marching specifically to show their love of Trump.

 

No matter how much you sugarcoat it, Trump has brought out the ugly elements into the light, when they were hidden under a rock previously. Look no further than this site.

we have found these people in our population but do we give them anymore credit, attention ot do anything more than marginalize them as the quacks the same way we marginalize many of the Democrats screaming for socialism?

You can sugracoat it all you want but it's indisputable that the actual deplorables have surfaced this week and are gloating and it would be Presidential of Trump to address it head on, especially if he wants to separate himself from Obama and stop subliminally flaming racial tensions.

 

The reason you haven't seen the KKK march is because it's scheduled for Dec 3.

 

Trump called for unity. The deplorables are gonna deplore no matter what. At least they're not taking to the streets and causing destruction, and I bet the KKK won't either on December 3rd.

Let's get up close and personal with those "out of town" folks and see who sent them.

About those rioters...

Original Article

 

For many months, the LeftMedia have been warning that Trump supporters were so clearly violent they would likely riot when he lost the election. The media were salivating at the ratings triumph of this imagined scenario. They knew that it was coming, and it was going to validate their contempt for Trump and anyone who supported him. So prevalent was the conviction that Trump was going to lose, and lose badly, that Chris Wallace, in the last debate, asked Trump if he would concede if he lost. It never occurred to him to ask Clinton the same question. Of course it didn't.

Trump's family plan to cut business conflicts falls short

That might be the most ignorant, offensive, and disgusting thing I've ever seen on the net, and I'm assuming that she let the kid back in once she turned off her camera. She was apparently completely unmoved by his pleas and tears. Forget for a second her warped sense of what Trump represents, even if your kid says he voted for Hitler in a mock-election at school, you sit them down and talk to them, teach them why they're wrong.

 

I'd love to see someone go to that house with convincing-looking eviction/repossession papers and armed guards, and film her screams and cries as she's led away so the world can see it on the web.

 

That poor kid. He deserves a real mother, not a POS like her.

Law involved now

Of course not. Because everyone knows she'd never cut her business conflicts.

 

In fact, the story would be more like "Clinton Still Has No Plan to Cut Business Conflicts."

We demand the democratic process be set aside in the interests of democracy!

 

Maybe I'll start a petition demanding that Hillary's EC votes be cast for Trump instead, since she's obviously a danger to the Republic for her scapegoating of so many Americans, impulsivity, bullying, lying, admitted history of criminal and ethical misconduct, and utter contempt of the American public.

I Won

by Kevin D Williamson

 

 

Ten minutes ago, somber progressives were lecturing Donald Trump over his “Make America Great Again” slogan. “America,” they sniffed, is already great.

Five minutes later, out came the “F*** AmeriKKKa!” signs and American flags were being burned in the streets.

Ten minutes ago, Democrats were fretting that Donald Trump and his partisans would refuse to concede defeat, and insisting that Trump must make a dramatic public commitment to personally working toward a peaceful transfer of power. (Well, he did.) There were whispers of political violence, of riots in the streets, arson, smashed windows, violent assaults.

Five minutes later, all of that came to pass — perpetrated by progressives in reaction to Trump’s winning the election fair and square.

 

Ten minutes ago, Democrats were complaining that Trump’s talk of “rigged” elections undermined faith in democracy and in the legitimacy of the United States government.

Five minutes later, Democrats were complaining that the elections were rigged against them by an electoral system that treats the states as states — entities with political interests of their own — rather than as administrative subdivisions of the federal government.

 

With their candidate set to lose the presidency in spite of her being projected to win the most individual votes, Democrats once again turned their rage upon the American constitutional order itself, and out came the signs: “America Was Never Great!”

 

Par for the course, I suppose: We all remember how the Mormons rioted after 2012. Things grew so lawless that a car was spotted double-parked on a Sunday morning across from a church in Provo, and several young men were spotted nearby with their ties slightly askew.

 

And so it goes. As windows were smashed, fires were set, and bystanders beaten, our progressive friends tut-tutted that the protests were “mostly peaceful.” “Mostly peaceful” is another way of saying, “Peaceful, if you ignore the violence.”

 

{snip}

For eight years, Democrats celebrated the aggrandizement of the already inflated presidency left to Barack Obama by George W. Bush. You remember the greatest hits: “If Congress won’t act, I will.” “I have a pen and a phone.” “Elections have consequences.” And, my personal favorite: “I won.”

 

Somebody else won this time around.

 

The pretensions of the imperial presidency are going to haunt Democrats for the immediate future, but they’ll quickly rediscover their belief in limits on the executive. While they’re rediscovering old virtues, they might take a moment to lament Senator Harry Reid’s weakening of the filibuster, an ancient protection of minority interests in the less democratic house of our national legislature. They might also lament Senator Reid’s attempt to gut the First Amendment in order to permit the federal government — which in January will be under the management of Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, and — incredibly enough — President Donald Trump — to regulate political speech, deciding who can speak, about what and when, and on what terms. Perhaps they’ll thank those wicked “conservative” justices on the Supreme Court for saving basic political-speech rights. If they are smart, they will rediscover federalism, too, and the peacemaking potential of a school of thought that says in a diverse nation of 320 million souls, there is no reason that life in rural Idaho must be lived in exactly the same way as it is in Brooklyn or Santa Monica. As Charles C. W. Cooke pointed out, the same people who until ten minutes ago denounced federalism — which they mischaracterize as the doctrine of “states’ rights” — as an instrument for the suppression of African Americans are now embracing secession, which, in he American context at least, has a little bit of its own racial baggage.

 

If our so-called liberals want to bust a few shop windows in Oakland — well, there isn’t much to do in Oakland, anyway. But those of you who are shaking in your Birkenstocks over the election of Donald Trump should consider the possibility that if the office of the presidency is that important to you, then perhaps the most intelligent course of action is not to pin your hopes on controlling it always and forever (something unlikely to happen under truly democratic processes) but to work toward making it less important — to you, and to everybody else, too.

 

You’ll find a great many conservatives ready to join you in that project.

Someone needs to tell that guy for read Teddy Roosevelt's full quote.

 

Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any other public official, save exactly to the degree in which he himself stands by the country. It is patriotic to support him insofar as he efficiently serves the country. It is unpatriotic not to oppose him to the exact extent that by inefficiency or otherwise he fails in his duty to stand by the country. In either event, it is unpatriotic not to tell the truth, whether about the president or anyone else.

So, you're saying the KKK "Loves Trump's Hate".

Got it.

I think the Left "Hates Trump's Love" for the country.

 

Well I guess The Deplorables Win!

SCOTT ADAMS: The Cognitive Dissonance Cluster Bomb.

This brings me to the anti-Trump protests. The protesters look as though they are protesting Trump, but they are not. They are locked in an imaginary world and battling their own hallucinations of the future. Here’s the setup that triggered them.

 

1. They believe they are smart and well-informed.

 

2. Their good judgement told them Trump is OBVIOUSLY the next Hitler, or something similarly bad.

 

3. Half of the voters of the United States – including a lot of smart people – voted Trump into office anyway.

 

Those “facts” can’t be reconciled in the minds of the anti-Trumpers. Mentally, something has to give. That’s where cognitive dissonance comes in.

 

There are

two ways for an anti-Trumper to interpret that reality.

One option is to accept that if half the public doesn’t see Trump as a dangerous monster, perhaps he isn’t. But that would conflict with a person’s self-image as being smart and well-informed in the first place. When you violate a person’s self-image, it triggers cognitive dissonance to explain-away the discrepancy.

 

So how do you explain-away Trump’s election if you think you are smart and you think you are well-informed and you think Trump is OBVIOUSLY a monster?

 

You solve for that incongruity by hallucinating – literally – that Trump supporters KNOW Trump is a monster and they PREFER the monster. In this hallucination, the KKK is not a nutty fringe group but rather a symbol of how all Trump supporters must feel. (They don’t. Not even close.)

 

In a rational world it would be obvious that Trump supporters include lots of brilliant and well-informed people. That fact – as obvious as it would seem – is invisible to the folks who can’t even imagine a world in which their powers of perception could be so wrong. To reconcile their world, they have to imagine all Trump supporters as defective in some moral or cognitive way, or both.

 

 

 

AMEN.

On 60 Minutes today Trump was shown telling his supporters to "Stop It" and tamp down the harassment, and is getting positive feedback on that.

 

Of course, Trump made those comments on Friday, but CBS decided to sit on the soundbite for two whole days, while violent protests are still going on and everyone calling on Trump to say something.
