The thought of him becoming President is much more scary than trump.

No more checks and balances. I am worried about trump, he can't do much on his own outside of escalating blood for oil, GWB has only caused the death of 430,000 in the M.E. Maybe trump can double it.
Real Americans will be losing their right to vote, women, their right to choose, there is nothing to stop a way too far right SCOUTUS appointment and no way to prevent it.
If I had or was going to have a schoolage family, I would leave.

Actually we did this for our kids future. It had to start somewhere and people were tired of being ignored. Now, maybe both sides of the fence will pay attention to the people and run this country next go around. Maybe 4 years of Trump will convince them we felt we could do no worse

Ambulances had gone in and out of here at all hours. From mid July to the end of October I watched helplessly as my soulmate died, without a kind word from any of these neighbors and I am supposed to be good to them? Those heartless bastards? Not bloody likely.

You actually think that trump has anything to do with this subject that other than not using his veto pen? That is all he has in this matter, really.

Tom I hate to break this to you but they re-elected 99% of the corrupt elites so what is likely to change?

Very insightful.

The truth is both major parties have been sucking the dicks of their wealthy donors, while fucking the people they are supposed to represent in the ass.

Hopefully this is a wake up call for them.

If not, well then maybe it's time for the second amendment solution.

And yes, I received thanks for my picture to wearing my trump shirt to the polls where I voted without a hassle of any kind.
I'm sure you did.

Doesn't matter. It like blaming Bush for the financial melt down or giving Bill Clinton credit for the dot com explosion.
Whoever is in there gets stuck with it regardless of how much they had to do with it.

Indeed and I hope the smart women who voted for this pair realize that by the time the new VP is finished they will not even be allowed an abortion even if it is to save their life. Beside their private parts I wonder what other part of their bodies he will want to control?
