You're from Boston. The sarcasm is assumed. Ha! Yes, but I grew up in Lexington, KY and Milwaukee, WI. Must have been 4 years with the state of NJ on the Hilltop. My mistake - I figured with your general love of Boston sports teams you were a native! 😉

I wonder how many strategists are already working on how to blame the "radical, communist Democrats," for the failures of Trump's "policies" now that it's going to be entirely up to "Republicans" to get something done without the Dems having much in the way of power to do much of anything about it. People wanted to find out what would happen. I hope they're ready for the results. I KNOW they're not ready for the blame.

This is what the folks wanted: getting things "done!" Of course, by that, Trump means gutting the Constitution or, at the least, ignoring it as it suits him. Murica!

They knew who and what he was and enthusiastically voted for him in large numbers. They made their choice, now they get to live with the consequences of that choice. I’m going to have a hard time mustering any sort of sympathy for any group that voted for him overwhelmingly and then ends up getting hurt by his policies. They were warned.

This tweet applies to so many communities in this election. I wonder how long it will take for Latino and Arab American Trump voters to realize that they made a Faustian Bargain.

This is just the start of the decidedly un-Christian Christian Nationalist autocracy. Nauseating and immoral.

This is just the start of the decidedly un-Christian Christian Nationalist autocracy. Nauseating and immoral. It must be the right path. People like Elvado and a couple of others that found their "spines" after the election voted for it by a remarkable majority. And, while those folks were entirely silent during the election with regard to the fascist talking points and blatant racism, we have to trust that they were correct, no? Oh, right. These folks have lost their damn minds in favor of hate and tax benefits. Some would call them lacking in morality (myself included). But, the "Christians" say they're all good. And, we know how moral the Catholics, especially, have a rep for being. Imagine looking to an organization that has protected and normalized child molestation as just a cost of doing business (and it is HUGE business with no taxation but, apparently, plenty of representation) as a moral and ethical reference point. Disgusting.
