Everybody likes a winner

Better jump on the bandwaggon Hillarybots, the rest of the country is leaving you behind.

President-elect Donald Trump's favorability has grown by 9 points since the election, a Politico/Morning Consult poll out Monday revealed. Trump now has a favorable standing among 46 percent of registered voters, up from 37 percent right before the election. Meanwhile, the percentage of registered voters with an unfavorable opinion of Trump has dropped 15 points, from 61 percent to 46 percent. "Trump's favorability among voters has reached new highs since he became president-elect," said Morning Consult co-founder Kyle Dropp, though he noted "this honeymoon phase is common for new presidents."

"Everybody" likes a winner?
As someone who was never a "Hillarybot", "Never!" comes instanteously to mind.
Fuck him, and especially, fuck the horse he rode in on.

I think this big post election bump in Trumps favorability is an excellent example of what I was talking about when I said that the DNC handing Hillary a 400 super delegate lead before voting even started, thereby setting the narrative that she was already the winner was tantamount to rigging the primaries.

Never would I have ever thought I'd find myself, in my lifetime, in a similar position as those who opposed the Nazis. Hopefully, it will remain far less hazardous to be so now.

And you are not now either.

To suggest that you are is ludicrous.

Your very persona puts the lie to your assurances.

You have a point.

I have, in the past, advocated sending certain people to North Korean Style forced labor camps. At that time I was limiting this to Republicans. However, I now feel that Hillaybots should also be put into the mix.

Sometime doubling down just gets you way deeper into the pit.

At best, this is the reaction to the "Give him a chance" meme that's the media is pushing. The truth is that, after seeing the kinds of people he's bringing into his administration, his approval rating should have dropped. At worst, it's a clear indication of how fucked we are as a people.

I'm seeing that more each day.

The right wing hate machine is in full bore and it won't stop until this country is turned upside down.

The international community is backing away...well, except for the dictatorships, they are sending "welcome to the club" letters to Don.
