President Trump

[TechAlum05]

The Senate, as tenuous as it is for the Reps, will have to be held in two years as will the House.

Actually, the GOP has a decent chance to keep the Senate in 2018 based on the seats up for grabs in two years.

The Senate election in 2018 will have 25 Democrat seats (including 2 independents who caucus with Dems) and 8 GOP seats up for election. The 8 GP seats include "safe" seats in Mississippi, Nebraska, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming.

The Democrats have to defend seats in Florida, Indiana, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Wisconsin...states that all just went for Trump last night. If everything goes right for Trump and the GOP the next two years, they could emerge in 2019 with 60+ seats in the Senate.

The news media still doesn't get it. They still are harping that a crap load of uneducated, white, racists showed up at the last minute to save Trump. They can't imagine the majority of Trump voters are voting against the establishment, Obamacare, open borders, environmental regulation, etc. That New York/D.C. bubble they live in doesn't pop easily.

Here's the thing on their "data," it's based on the same polls which predicted a Killary, Chillary, Schrillary landslide. I don't believe Trump would have won if the majority were uneducated White Racists, who are a definite minority of Americans.

I think it was the factory workers who've lost their jobs through NAFTA (in the Rust Belt). They weren't being racist, just want their jobs back. It's hard for uneducated people to find good jobs. These are union folks who usually vote Democrat.

Now little boys know they can preach hate and harass women and still become president.

Looks like white people finally have a chance again.

How does it feel to have the KKK endorsing your president?

The Dems have ZERO ground for calling anyone out on that when they chum around with the world's most vile rap music artists. As for your remark about whites, sorry you hate your skin color.

Hillary got almost 4 million votes less than Obama did in 2012 while Trump and Romney got essentially the same number. No uptick in racism is in play. Just a candidate in Hillary that couldn't get out her vote.

The KKK is endorsing him Lol how is that not racist

His votes were mostly by small town white people. My racist family all voted for him.

It seem that by your logic, Mrs. Clinton would be a lesbian, among other things.

Also since several Bulldog Barks and Bytes folks "endorsed him", are you declaring him to be a Louisiana Tech Bulldog Fan?

[Dixonfor6]

So is the NAACP, Black Panthers, BLM, etc. all endorsing and/or supporting Killary--and the conservatives are Racist?

Those groups were created to build power against lynchings and police brutality. Huge difference.

I truly believe you will think about that statement in the future and cringe. Family is something that should be sacred to you, because once gone they cannot be replaced.

I don't go to family events anymore because I can't stand the constant hate speech.. I wish it weren't like that because they love me.

We shall see what happens. Lots of uncertainty to me. I hope after he rips up all these "bad deals" he can renegotiate better ones.. Let's be honest depending on what channel we watch they'll either be great or the worst ever. Still hoping for the best. Go dawgs

You are young, but will not be forever. Don't let the NAACP, GOP, DNC or any other group of strangers come between your family! Those groups don't love you - your family does.

Just remember that he was a Democrat most of his life and funded Hillary and Chuck Schumer. He's not an ideologue, he's a deal-maker (makes the best deals, fabulous deals, bigly). No telling what he's going to do.

Many are much wealthier today! Whoever thought Trump had a chance to win should have bought Caterpillar and Lockheed Martin. If you did congratulations!😎

Matter of opinion, what they say their mission is and what they actually do are two different animals, they all have a double standard.

They only tell you that....

This ... Over and over and over again this. It isn't rocket science. People who are out of work blame the incumbent. The problem is the press has done a good job of convincing, well, mostly the left that the economy is great and that middle class families are just swimming in the excess of the last 8 years. They aren't. For two weeks leading into this election I watched my hard working neighbors fuming about their Obamacare premium increases. Same thing ... pocketbook suffers, the party in charge suffers.
