Every single person in Washington and the media are totally obsessed with destroying their own images/public trust as fast as possible.

And he wins still as people in this country despise the evil lying and leftist media even worse.

GIANFORTE WINS SEAT: Republican claims victory in Montana election

[Guisslapp]

Speaking of lying - the candidate's first explanation about what happened was a lie.

I really think partisan news sources, particularly the ones you read, are making a lot of people batty.

[Guisslapp]

Unfortunately the rest of us get stuck with the government you batty people deserve.

Oh, too bad, the GOP guy won anyway.

BTW, some libtard media outlet, an online site, was trying to stir the pot yesterday by demanding that those who voted early be able to change their vote, oh, but only if they voted for Gianforte. They had a blog running and asked for people who had already voted to chime in. That blog had scores of posts on it, and while some were, yeah, the person would change their vote from Gianforte, the majority were: I voted for the democrap, but would change my vote TO the GOP guy because he punched out that libtard reporter. Hah! Probably an independent voter(s) who routinely flip-flop between the parties. It does show what the general public thinks of the media....and it ain't good.

Oh, too bad, the former Hillary supporter who switched to GOP guy won anyway.

Fixed it for you!

[dawg80]

Whatever. Most importantly the guy the democraps, and the libtard media, wanted to win....didn't.

[Guisslapp]

Tribalism at its finest.

I would hope my representative would have at least enough self control to wait until after the election to choke slam a reporter. Doesn't seem like too much to ask.

I didn't vote for Vitter because of his issues, I didn't vote for Trump because of his. Unfortunately for the Democrats, just because I can't vote for the republican doesn't mean I have to vote for the democrat.

[Guisslapp]

I would be the last to suggest that you should vote for the lesser of two evils. In the case of Trump, I personally felt it was my responsibility to.

[CARTEK]

...must be tough carrying all that responsibility around!

[Cool Hand Clyde]

Fixed it for you!

Just call him Mr. President

I would be the last to suggest that you should vote for the lesser of two evils. In the case of Trump, I personally felt it was my responsibility to.

If felt compelled to vote for one of the two I would have voted for Trump. I also had a high confidence that Trump would win my state, and a fairly high confidence that Hillary would win the election. I was mistaken on one of those two.
