The Hitler playbook still works. What a fabulous way to celebrate the 93rd anniversary of the Munich "Beer-Hall Putsch!"

Because as minorities (and one a female) they recognize the racist, sexist, silver spoon in the mouth, orange tinted, con-man buffoon for what his campaign stood for and was.

Didn't Obama already prove that? I know, Barack had a bit more political experience than Trump, but it wasn't much, and we survived 8 years of him being president. Ok we still have two plus months to go, but I am making an assumption here.

What seems apparent is that all the stories about how the RNC was going to be ripped apart by Trump seem to really be about the DNC that has apparently become the party of the ultra elite.

Yes, it does appear that way, Clinton was above the law and was not approachable. I know the Democrats spent so much money on TV ads against Trump and they were not allowed to buy the election. This is American taking back their country and letting both parties know the people will decide who wins not the establishment

I hope he surrounds himself with competent people. Given his history, I think he will at least go that route.

His background (businessman) would suggest that this is indeed what he would do.

I would expect appointees/nominees who are doers and achievers, rather than bureaucrats.

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

All you need to do is review Reagans presidency. This is history all over again, a weak and very ineffective president who has made the USA loose it power in the world and then in comes in a new president and Makes America Great Again. Obama will be looked back on in history the same way Jimmy Carter is seen.

Obama is just mouse, Trump is a Man. Trump is just walking in Reagan shoes and I can only see great things on the future for America .

God Bless President Elect Trump

Borrow and spend conservatives rise again. I hope you're right though. I am not like Republicans who actively preyed for Obama to fail.

His background (businessman) would suggest that this is indeed what he would do.

I would expect appointees/nominees who are doers and achievers, rather than bureaucrats.

I hope he is a better President than business man.

I hope he is at least half the president that he is as a business man. Henry Ford filed for bankruptcy twice before the Ford Motor Company came along. Don't see Ford going away anytime soon. (If memory serves me correctly, weren't they the one major that didn't take a government bailout, even when their stock plummeted to $1.20 or so??)

I hope he is a better President than business man.

There's you a plus one for good measure. Don't let it go to your head. ;)

Now I gotta get off here and get some work done. Y'all have fun. Play nice, and be glad the last 18 months are behind us. Hopefully, the years ahead will be better for us all. I think we deserve it.

His net worth is 4.5 billion, Impressive to me

I am a small business owner, I have had 6 business in my career. I have had two that were pretty successful. I have had couple that were a wash in the end, and the others were basically paid me a salary. As they say you have to loose to learn how to win. The winners are the ones who fail and keep on going, that is the hard part and also that is the key that makes you successful.

First thought that came to mind was VOL The International Playboy, but the grammar is too good.
