Your Presidential Pick

I am happy that Trump won....and hope we get something better than Obamacare..

I'm sorry but this is just hilarious and I had to share it!

Not only do they want to change the electoral system AFTER the election has been and gone but they are getting all pious about 'one person one vote' When you consider that Hilary only became the candidate due to the massively undemocratic 'superdelegate' system it's even funnier!

Plus they want me to sign it and I'm not an American!

These people are just sore losers. If the tables were turned and Trump had popular vote and Hillery won by Electoral votes, they wouldn't give a Damn about the method or process to which they won their victory.

I am very unhappy that Trump, I am Latino I am not a rapist or murder, I have a son with special needs, did not think making fun of someone special needs was cool, his statements on Muslims was ignorant considering there over a billion Muslims.

That being said I accept the results, Trump won fairly, and despite my feelings he is going to be the 45th president, protesting will do nothing, and I wish him success, because I never wish our leader to fail.

If the tables were turned Trump would be screaming CONSPIRACY!! to anyone who would listen and so would his supporters. Lets be honest he'd already started before he won!

I don't think that people should protest now but tbh if he does half of the things he says he's going to do then people have every right to protest it's part of being free, but they should be more adult about it and not just crying about the fact that for once they didn't get their way.

I'm against Brexit (fortunately my Irish heritage qualifies me for an Irish passport and EU membership   ) but although it will be a disaster for this country, I'm dead against all of the legal shenanigans that people have been trying to keep us in. The people have spoken and that's that.

^^ I heard a joke that sez the reason Trump got elected was cuz the UK said, "Brexit was the most self-destructive thing a nation can do!"... and the USA sez "Oh yeah? Hold my drink, and watch THIS!"

As a middle eastern christian suffering persecution, i am glad trump got elected. Hope he can do something for Christian minorities and stop the rise of islam in the US. Trust me you do not wish to end like some UK areas where muslim religious patrols would warn locals about drinking alcohol! Scary.

This does not happen in the U.K it's all bullshit.

Okay, it's happened! First person in this whole mess who has made any sense to me. I'm voting for her!

It's not Bullshit. Maybe the leftist mainstream media doesn't like it since it's considered "racist" but the UK has a massive muslim problem. They don't use the term "No Go Zones" like in Sweden but rather just call it Muslim Zones, they do exist, it's where the estimated 80 Sharia Courts are localized which act even above the countries laws.

As said, the same is going on in Sweden, where it's estimated that there are 30 No Go Zones, where even the Cops (who a couple weeks ago threatened to quit their job because they are scared for their lives) wouldn't go in and where muslims will attack/rape you basically on sight. I have a friend who works in Lullea and you don't wanna know what stories he tells me. Heck, by now i'm even afraid to go to the Sweden Rock Festival because who knows what will happen.

The same is starting to happen everywhere. Even Germany now has that by now, like Marxlohe in Duisburg. 2/3 of the people living there are foreigners, the majority are muslim and you can take a wild guess what is going on there. Police is crying for help because they can't cope with all the violence and get attacked on sight, that is going on there, the entire part is in the hands of muslims and they rule there. It's a huge problem that lately has been discussed a lot.
The same for example in Munich, while not as extreme, Neuperlach has always been known as a part of the city where you have to be cautious and as a german you get to hear some "really" nice things from the muslims living there and yes, some actually do warn you to leave.

I guess are americans to far removed from Europe to realize what is truly going on here and that the muslim immigrants are a massive problem - and basically always have been.

Well my friend...keep on living in denial until it is too late. There is a problem and we all know it. But no one talks about it in order not to be labelled as a racist. So hypocrit.

I cannot imagine how insane Trump and his supporters would have gone if Trump had won the popular vote and not the electoral vote.

EDIT: what Boris said above about same.

EDIT AGAIN: Also, lest we forget:



and

Man, this salt is delicious.

At least we got a smoking hot first lady coming into office.

Yep, haven't had one of those since... Jackie Kennedy, I guess.

Just read that the president is giving up his salary. Sweet move.

Take out all the illegal alien votes and Donald Trump wins the popular vote as well.



It's been estimated by some that at least three million illegal aliens voted in the 2016 election.



Most of those votes no doubt went for Hillary Clinton.



Hillary didn't win anything.



She lost big.



Get over it.

The above post reminds me of a meme that made me chuckle about the irony of people waving the confederate flag and yelling "you lost, get over it". Heh.

Good ol' hypocrisy.

Also, I am not contesting this, because I have zero knowledge about that...but I'd be interested in seeing the sources for that figure.

EDIT: Nevermind, no longer interested, I can find plenty of discussion about this on my own.

Wasn't the UK the one who called Hezbollah a 'resistance group' while every other sane nation recognized them as a terrorist organization?

I'll give the Donald the benefit of the doubt as a leader, but c'mon... his woman looks plastic.

He actually said he would do that about a year ago. I guess he is taking one dollar per year for his salary, probably for some legal mumbo jumbo.

I would be more impressed if he wasnt a gazillionare I mean seriously being the president is probably a serious pay cut for him. One thing i worry about is him using his new power to financially better himself. One of many concerns I have. That being said I accept the results I dont agree with them, I didnt vote for him but as Manny said I wish him success. If he fails then it trickles down to the American people.

Well just to answer a few of the "experts" on my country that have told me what is happening in my own neighbourhood.

1. Have you ever been to the U.K? I have, I've lived here my whole life.

2. Have you ever lived alongside Muslim people? I have, my town is in the centre of the country and ideal for logistics and distribution centres, the large number of jobs in the area have made it a magnet for immigration from all kinds of far flung places like Eastern Europe, Africa, Asia etc.. plus we have a lot of immigrants from Pakistan who are now a generation deep into our community. I work alongside Muslims, I used to live in a primarily Muslim area right next to the mosque, my next door neighbours right now are Muslim.

3. Have you ever been thrown off of a building by Muslims? No, neither have I! And yet I have lived a lifestyle over the years that would have guaranteed at least getting something cut off if Sharia law was in place, it isn't! Unless you can provide me with a least a slither of evidence to the contrary, I'm going to go with my 45 years of life experience.

4. Are there police no-go zones in the U.K? Of course there aren't, the police go wherever the F*ck they want, they are the police!

The levels of immigration to this small country has caused some issues for sure like added pressure on healthcare and schools in communities that were ill prepared for the influx, people coming in from other places who often hate each other! and various other stuff but to suggest that we are over run and being taken over is, as I have already said, absolute bullshit!
