I dont get this hero worship of Trump its not a good thing

.no avg person has that date circled on their calendar .. for any POTUS
" I dont get this hero worship of Trump its not a good thing "

Obama got his fair share of worship too, and not just from citizens, but from the media...and from himself...remember his inauguration speech in 2008, something about how he was going to wave his hand and the earth would begin to heal and the oceans would stop rising. He's obviously not anywhere near as boorish or crass as Trump, but his ego is almost as big.

I thin Trump is a world-class jerk. But I am beyond giddy that it wasn't her.

There was at least one guy here (a very smart guy by the way), who thought he walked on water, could never bring himself to criticize Obama, ever. Never, ever, ever.

yup...he's still wearing Obama and Hillary Underoos on alternating days even though he bolted for Canada post election.

I think it's more like the remembrance of a Super Bowl victory where the other team was favored by 45 points and the fans of the other team and their members had been mocking your quarterback for the last year as the guy that cold never get it done.....there is a great video compilation of democrat politicians and hollywood dumbasses who provided some wonderful pontifications on the possibility(not) of a Trump presidency

found it.....the very last one is the best!...I could watch this over and over

I look at it more as one year since not her. I am not sure how much better or worse we are as there are elements of both.

The subtly of his irony reminds me of George Saunders writing.

Pretty sad when the tops of both tickets were / are in trouble with the LAW and under multiple and extended FBI investigations. The Dems ran the one person that could be beaten by most

There are a million videos showing Hilary's supporters blowing a gasket, and every single one of them is glorious. Here is my favorite...
