#WINNING

What a great day for America. We have another Constitutional justice on the Supreme Court. By 50-48, Kavanaugh was confirmed. Especially delicious was hearing the incessant whining from the gallery during the vote. It's a good look for Democrats if you support the GOP.

A booming economy. Better trade deals. Two new justices. A rollback on the economic straight jacket caused by enormous regulations. A more intelligent environmental policy. NK is at the table for the first time.

The wall will come and immigration reform will happen as well. Iran's theocracy will tumble with time and we are on the correct path there.

Life is sweet.

Life is FABULOUS! Now that Trump has put our country back on the right path, I find myself sleeping like a BABY at night. And, when the alarm clock wakes me at dawn...I jump out of bed while being carried away by a new wave of enthusiasm and optimism for the future, which I don't remember ever feeling before. Great days INDEED!

Cool sarcasm.

You should detail all the bad stuff that has happened to you and yours since Trump came to town.

I am fortunate enough to have largely insulated myself from the side-effects of the U.S. President, and his Supreme Court...and I sincerely hope that the rest of the PA posters are equally fortunate. What we are seeing today is nothing that we haven't seen before. These "great economic recovery" cycles come unannounced...and they usually bring with them "record-setting" economic indicators. But...the only sure thing that can be said about them is that they are of a temporary nature. When the citizens ask the question: "What will the economy do?"...IMO, the correct answer is: "it will fluctuate".

Yes...the politicians often say that they will "Make America Great Again". But...what is good for the "country", isn't necessarily good for the citizens at large.

How many times in years of the Obama administration did you ask this of the righties?

But hey, your logic is sound.. unless bad stuff has personally happened to you as a result of a presidency, you have no right to criticize or have issues with.

WE didn't whine, bitch, moan, and act like 7 year olds in the cereal aisle of the grocery store when we didn't get what we wanted.


We also didn't scream Armageddon and people will die with every waking moment of the Obama administration.


You know what we did? We went about our lives and went to work to support our families and children. We knew we lived in America and the 'shit' wasn't all that bad and we can elect others to do better.


Dems think they are smarter. Reality is, you are just way more emotional and can't deal with reality.

Didn't have to ask - we reported it regularly.

I was WAY MORE fair with Obama than you have ever been for only 1 minute with Trump.

Never said people didn't have the right to criticize, even if things are going well.

Just curious what is behind the statement. All these folks who desperately want to see Trump gone, and declare how horrible he is for the country and the world at large, I'm curious to hear these earth-shattering events that have led to these opinions.

Things seem to be going pretty well, on the surface at least. The world is humming along, there's been some calmness established in some hotspots...the economy is humming along...job numbers (whether fake or not) are RELATIVELY very strong (if they are indeed fake...it's still relative to Obama's fake numbers).

Results matter, actually. It's not all twitter and crassness and personality (which are some of the main critiques these days).

People can excuse that, especially if the actual IMPORTANT stuff is moving along nicely.

And some people can't. Your whole rationale is it doesn't matter that a steaming pile is president, because the country hasn't imploded.

But a lot of people still don't like the smell.

You should be OK with this, because that only really affects relatively affluent folks living in nice houses in nice neighborhoods...and nobody cares about the rich.

What it will do is provoke more people to move out of hellhole tax states like NY....
