For a guy who kept talking about all the "generals and admirals" he had supporting him...he doesn't seem to want to listen to the U.S. military, which says climate change is a major national security threat. "He just said all that to get elected." -- Insouciant Trump supporters "He will change once he takes office." -- Worldly wise Trump supporters "You take what he says literally, not seriously; we take what he says seriously, not literally." -- Haughty Trump supporters Our long national nightmare has just begun. PS: You've all seen his choices for Education and HUD, right? PPS: Slam, I envy your living in Idaho. Here in the Commonwealth, we won't have nearly as much fun saying, "See? I toldja so." In education, is it still Carson? A creationist?

The same predictable people "wah-wah-wah-ing '' every day. And he's not even officially in office. I've got to avoid this thread until something actually happens, politically, or else wear my galoshes.

I've got to avoid this thread until something actually happens, politically, or else wear my galoshes. Who is wah-wah-wah-ing, though? I think the thread has seemed pretty smooth-going since its re-opening? Anyway, I am actually more concerned about Pence than I am Trump. I am NOT in the camp of "Impeach Trump".

Give it time, it's only been a little over 24 hours. I have faith that Commander-In-Chief Trump will give me plenty of grief once he's ensconced in the White House. That would be following a proud tradition that most presidents have fulfilled on my behalf. I do take some solace that he's retreated from some of his radical positions like putting Hillary in the slammer, deporting 10 million aliens, building The Great Wall of Mexico etc. But until he's actually sworn in, I not going to treat every day he wakes up as a personal defeat

In education, is it still Carson? A creationist? No, but just as bad. Betsy De Vos, ardent supporter of public funds for private schools. Opposed to bureaucracy, in favor of diverting public funds to for-profit schools that are off-limits to most kids. Billionaire. Longtime GOP bigwig from Michigan. And, bonus! Her brother founded Blackwater!

Though, I do not intend to spend much time in this thread.

It seems you are implying someone within this thread is behaving this way, but you're not coming out and saying exactly who you think it is. Huh. Oh, well. Maybe in the near future you'll feel comfortable enough to share it with the rest of the class. Did we really believe Trump was going to really do all those things? To me, it was just the fact he would say he wanted to do those things. Now, Pence? Pence is going to truly take us back quite a few years.

The Politics thread is about the only one where things get really serious. I don't know..."The coffee (and bananas) thread' can get pretty contentious, particularly when the Anti-Banana Leaguers show up. Hey we're not that bad. We've never suggested building a wall to keep bananas out. Though now that I think about it....

Trump doesn't believe in anything he says and will flip on positions at the drop of a hat if it benefits him. Pence, on the other hand, actually wholeheartedly believes the shit he spouts...

Pence has been a regular topic amongst my friends and I for years. Our worst nightmares are starting to come true, but all our "whining" has done little good. If he was trying to control what straight dudes do with their bodies though....Then he probably wouldn't have gotten as far politically as he has. I am glad you pointed that out.♡

Catch-22...
Prime Minister Trudeau will make an announcement today concerning pipelines. That's a very sensitive subject here, as for some provinces it may mean lots and lots of jobs and money and for others it just means an ecological disaster with no economic counterpart. The PM sort of danced around the subject during the last election, but now he'll have to settle things one way or the other. Whatever he decides, he will be pelted with rotten tomatoes.
Well, he wanted the job...
