    So far all the doomsday gloom Trump predictions have failed to materialize just as the one that predicted a market crash if he was elected. You can continue to hope for the worst though if that's what makes you happy.

    Do you actually look up words before you use them?

    Wikepedia: reactionary: A reactionary is a person who holds political views that favor a return to the status quo ante, the previous political state of society, which they believe possessed characteristics (discipline, respect for authority, etc.) that are negatively absent from the contemporary status quo of a society.

    That describes the Marxist Democrats of today - wanting to return to the Marxism of Obama!

    Con men? Circus Clowns? Trump is keeping his campaign promises. Just where is the con?

    Put away your hate. It is blinding you!

    He has only been in Office for 39 days.

    His Administration will meltdown into an historic train wreck.

    Just give it time.

    Do you think the GOP is going to help Trump hide his collusion with Putin to rig the election? If they don't will you still be laughing?

    do you think the DNC will admit that they actually did rig the election and still lost?

    I didn't vote for either clown so I couldn't care less to be honest they were both absolutely terrible candidates.

    Lol. Same old left wing talking points... Did we get taken by Obama too? If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor and if you like your insurance you can keep your insurance...remember that?
    Trump has been President for a little over two months and you are already jumping to conclusions.
    Taxes are too damn high. Corporate taxes highest in the World and are holding back investment in the US by big corporations. Small business stifled by the ACA. Minority Americans earning less today than when Obama took office. Middle class shrinking and even the unions are backing Trump! The unions!
    20 % import taxes will ensure that companies thing twice before leaving and give incentive for companies over seas to come back.

    Your message is the same tire BS that old Socialist Sanders spews to get the uninformed brain washed masses to support him. The good news is more and more Americans are waking up to the lies and propaganda.

    We had choices.

    [video=youtube;xTgJddfPsA4]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTgJddfPsA4[/video]

    :D We had lots of choices. We always do, but voters have placed themselves mentally in a cage that only allows them to vote D or R. It is the Spoiler Mentality Prison. We got two candidates who pretty much could not have been worse, and voter turnout testified to that, yet still voters would not vote in large numbers for other candidates. They did this because they believed that others would be voting for D and R, and so they chose to vote D or R in response to that, rationalizing this choice as a "lesser evil" vote.

    There was no lesser evil in this last election.

    As long as he tries to keep his campaign promises he will have the support of his voters. I know it kills you to see him suceed.

    The left does not deal in truth. They deal in false narratives, scare tactics, and failure.

    There is some truth to that for many partisan voters. But many liberals went to independants because the Democrat party has gone way too far left.

    This is so ridiculous, all 3 of the things you mentioned have already been done in this country and in fact, TRump is doing
    1. class warfare- there is warfare against the poor and middle class. Look how our incomes have declined while the top few % wealth has risen drastically. How CEOs make 400 or more times their avg worker salary. Look at how the republicans and many right wingers thumb their nose at people in poverty (who often work more than one job), they are unskilled, lazy, they don't deserve increased min wage or livable wages (ironically many of these people are coal miners that he same thing can be said about). They don't deserve welfare, their kids don't deserve an education, they don't deserve any food, they should just starve to death. That sounds like class warfare to me

    2. redistribution of wealth- already happened, all the money to the top. There is no denying this, over the past 50 years or so, all the wealth is going to the top, the rest of use are struggling. The tax burdens on the top have gone down, they have gained wealth, and the low and middle classes rate went up, and their wealth has gone down. But hey, lets give more tax cuts to the rich

    3. central planning of the economy. All billionaires in the Trump administration, planning to remove all regulations to help the rich get evne richer at the expense of everybody else. THe rich run the economy, with the sole goal of making them as much money as possible

    Will you be saying that in 4 years when Don has made you all as rich as him?..;)
    Wiki- "Trump graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in May 1968 with a Bachelor of Science degree in economics"

    He's a natural-born WINNER..:)-
    "If I'm president, we will win on everything we do..
    I will tell you that the problem our country has is that our leaders are so weak...
    We are going to start winning again. We are going to make America greater than ever before."

    Cultists do not deal in truth, and both parties have millions of moronic cultish followers who demonize the other cult for being a mirror image of themselves.

    1. The median wage has declined drastically UNDER OBAMA AND THE MARXIST DEMOCRATS, not under Trump. The only ones that preach class warfare are the Marxist Democrats. Always preaching how the rich are the enemy, that if it wasn't for the rich the poor would be richer.

    It was the Marxist Democrats this election cycle that were beholden to the rich donors, not Trump.

    Conservatives and the GOP don't say anything about who "deserves" what. Take education. The slave owners of the 1800's knew that an educated man was a free man. The Marxist Democrats have worked for 50 years to ruin the education system on their urban slave plantations because the Marxist Democrats know the same thing! The education system in our large urban slave plantations by conservatives of the GOP, it was done under Marxist Democrat mayors, governors, and Presidents!

    2. "all the money to the top". If that were true then how do the "nouveaue rich" get their money? The middle class is struggling because the Marxist Democrats have forced so many good jobs overseas with high taxes and overweaning regulation. Tax rates on the poor and middle class didn't go up under conservatives or the GOP, they went up under the Marxist Democrats. Why do you think we have the highest business tax in the world? It's because of the Marxist Democrat meme of "punish business, always and everywhere, merely for being in business". Right out of the Communist Manifesto!

    3. How does removing regulation result in central planning of the economy? You are showing the typical cognitive dissonance of the Marxist Democrat! Your views are driven by hate and your hate is blinding you!

    "this post belongs in the conspiracy theory pew"

    In other words you have absolutely nothing of import to offer in refutation of what I asserted. So you just use the typical tactic of a Marxist Democrat and resort to the argumentative fallacy of Argument by Dismissal. Speak the magic words "conspiracy", wave your hands magically over the keyboard, and POOF! the argument is refuted!

    Pathetic!

    The Replies, 'til now, are exactly what you should expect. Trump's True Believers managed to ignore half of what he said during the campaign -- the half they would have disagreed with had they listened. They only heard what they agreed with. Since he usually took both sides of every argument, they always got what they wanted.

    Now, they are continuing. They only hear the news they agree with. The messes he makes are, for them, "fake news" invented by hostile media. This is not a surprise. The capacity of Trump's True Believers to deny reality in favor of alternative facts is pretty much unlimited.

    You waste your time when you address a Trump True Believer. Such people already know the Truth, and your pitiful facts will never make them waver.
