Thank You

I love the way South Park described the choice. Giant Douche versus Turd Sandwich.

I don't think Trump will be as bad as the poor little snowflakes believe. His cabinet selections so far, especially "Mad Dog" Mattis for SECDEF, are a stark (and in my mind welcome) contrast to those of the last 8 years. It will be a very interesting 4 to 8 years ahead.
Sorry for getting everyone upset. I thanked my fellow Iowa mongers as well and it has dropped down the list and gone silent.
If he would have just posted a joke or some other story, but no, he has to make a political comment about how it bothers him. Rest of us just decided to pile on a little bit.
There were no winners running this year. Corporate lackey ruler or crooked politician. We've had all of the crooked politicians so let's see how Trump works out. You never know..... Originally Posted by CryptKicker

This will not be the first bad president we have ever had. Good presidents are actually few and far between and should be cherished. We just finished a 20 year run of extremely mediocre presidential service. Fortunately we have checks and balances in our government so the lousy presidents cannot run amok. Nor will this our be the last bad president. And yes -- as an American I hope he truly does well at his job and I will happily eat these words if he does. I'm just not expecting it to happen,

You didn't upset me at all Herman. I would have been making similar comments if Hillary had won too. For me this election came down to who would be the lesser of 2 evils.

And by the way I am an Iowa monger. I just happen to live closer to Omaha then any of the major cities in Iowa.

And finally -- to briefly address the comments made by the farm gelding -- I could care less what you think and will say nothing further on this subject. I have always made it a practice to never get involved in a battle of wits with the totally unarmed.
