Get us to the rotten place where expatriation and revolution seem to be the alternatives.

Here's about the best scenario I can hope for. After 1 year the disaster that is Trump has ripened to the point that even the Repub House of Representatives has had enough, and they go for impeachment. That takes time, and then we have midterm elections that chastise the Repubs enough that President Pence is a lame duck going forward to 2020.

Or it may work out worse than that.

More likely GDP will be up to 4% or better and everybody will have forgotten the left's pissing and moaning.

That could actually be worse. Economic bubble fueled by borrowing first, then after the build-up, the World War.

Are you insinuating the American people have short attention spans? Well, a right many of them have forgotten the childish behavior of McConnell & Co, over the last eight years. Or, they simply ignored it............like you.

No, Sir. This is not true. America is still a great nation, but it is suffering from a carcinogenic disease. I still love this nation. So I am pining for it's recovery.

After his promised tax cuts which will be from money we will need to borrow first? Bush recession will pale in comparison not to mention those bailouts.

Thank you, Chris. You're correct in viewing the incoming president * as a malady. Seeing the latest 'news', I'm thinking he's more of a kidney stone than a terminal malignancy. Painful to pass but a miniscule piss soaked pebble to be flushed down the toilet when all is said and done.

He should worry more about getting rid of the one he has than ours.

Thank you.

Unfortunately Trump is only a symptom. The disease is the people who put him in power and they aren't gong anywhere.

You can't use that, D ray will not like your tone.

But, it will be OK if conservatives are the disease I suspect.
