ORIGINAL: thishereboi Touched a nerve? Or are you one of those who believes in free speech but only if they say something you agree with? Or maybe you are just so butt hurt over the election you can't help your self. But here's a thought for everyone on the left, next time tell us how good your candidate is instead of telling people they are ignorant racist homophobes and perhaps they will vote for your guy. Oh look a free speech argument. I was commenting on how all of Greta's posts are essentially identical at this point. Islam and Hillary are bad, Trump is an inspiration to us all, not because of his policies, but because he has 'common sense' and 'tells it like it is'. I don't have any power to stop her from going on and on like that, so it doesn't have anything to do with free speech. And wait... are you saying that the right had nothing bad to say about Hillary? You're so upset about how mean the left was that I guess you forgot about all of the attacks on Bill, the email scandal that wasn't even a real scandal, etc. But the thing is, all of those anti-Trump ads mostly showed Trump making himself look ignorant, racist, homophobic, etc... that was sort of the point. But nobody cared... because name-calling and personal attacks ultimately don't work. People only care about themselves. I think the election mostly came down to Trump's incredibly stupid platform, which stood out as different as opposed to Hillary's 'more of the same'. What they don't realize is that Trump's platform is WORSE than more of the same. The bottom line is that it was the worst election I have ever seen and both sides were incredibly horrible... I don't think anyone should feel good about a Trump victory. I wouldn't feel great about a Hillary victory, but I would definitely feel safer knowing that things would keep plugging along... but maybe that's just because I'm doing alright for myself (and so is everyone I know) and I don't like the idea of rocking the boat over some stupid conspiracy theories about bankers and NWO and global elites who want to enslave everyone. Well the facts are, it's their boat and if its rocking it needs...it will be rocked. But to the extent that any such conspiracy might exist, neither of these two were (and no other) president would, get in the way, proven by the fact that as I written several times, Obama didn't get in the way and continued the so-called elitist or globalist polices necessary but at a pace to keep the masses at bay and obviously...in the dark. No bankers were even investigated, they all kept and and even gained more wealth. Equities are doing just fine. (more wealth) An insatiable market still exists for US debt. The drone war (war on terror) continues unabated. America is on track for all future hegemony. "Yes we can ?" No we can't. "Make America great again ?" It's 'great' enough now for...all of the above. There will be no martial law...yet. That's an unnecessary acceleration of events. Maybe the North American Union and the elimination of the dollar will do it...who knows ? But right now and for the foreseeable future, the dollar as expected, still rules and all of those holding them...know it and will continue to hold them. Even countries that don't follow along now with every policy nuance, know what the future holds and are willing partners.
