True, but do you really believe it is OK to give your loyalty to a President, if the President is acting contrary to the Constitution?

Who will they try to blame for their upcoming disasters. More immigrants? 

Are you really expecting that Trump will stop whining and blaming others? 😃

You are always on the wrong side of history, how can people's votes mean democracy is out?

[spidermike007]

Always a very dangerous thing and the potential for absolutely reckless policy when there is no balance of power. I'm not saying the Democrats didn't ask for it but it is a potential recipe for disaster.

Hmmm, yet Trump told Putin to do what he want's to Ukraine, way different to 1941-45, when the USA did the right thing to retain freedom, seems cash is more important to Trump.................🤔

What does that have to do in amending the Constitution regarding impeachment?  Running out of posts to comment on?

“My country tis of thee sweet land of liberty,Of thee I sing ,land where my fathers died
Land of the pilgrim's pride,
From every mountain side let freedom ring”!

 

Do you mean the rape, murder and extinction of Native American nation? And throw in the slaughter of 60 million buffalos in a 25 year period…not bad for European  white imperialists I mean white settlers 

 

looks like they will now get a 2nd crack at it - same formula just different era

Yep! We await your party governing with all responsibility for success or failure on their backs. I would have rather seen the complete opposite but my reasoning was because I wanted all responsibility to be on the backs of the Democrats to put up or shut up dealing with the justified frustration/anger within the working middle class due to the decades long economic squeeze resulting in the unsustainable income/wealth gap. Well, here we are … but now … I await the Republican sweep to address the issues of the working middle class upon any hope of a participatory democracy depends.

Never was a real chance to impeach trump when the Republicans refused to fulfil their Oath to the Constitution. The refusals should also have been charged, but obviously the Constitution needs to be amended, but again will not happen to lack of foresight by the Founding Fathers. 

Just for the record for some not remembering. Donald Trump was twice impeached. That is the documented history. The Senate did not find him guilty.

Even though the House is minority the election which was said by so many to be a tight run thing turned out to be the opposite. All swing states red, red blue wall, popular vote red, electoral college red, Senate red and now the House red shows one thing. A complete and utter rejection of Harris and the Democrats. Apart from the vast % of citizens seeing the country was moving in the wrong direction I also think the fear mongering, the smears, the celebrates and the legacy media helped Trump win in what can only be described as a landslide victory. People saw through the BS. (Not some on here though.) It's time to stop throwing tantrums, time to stop propagating the now fully exposed legacy media lies and see how things play out.

I’m thinking that while I agree there was a rejection of the Democrats, that the election of Trump, in large measure, is a rejection of the traditional Republican Party as well. Trump has given voice to the justified frustration/anger by purposely beating down the traditional Republicans. He has voiced wanting to drastically change the status quo in government … the working middle class is so emotionally driven to want change … well, I will await their reaction if Trump carries out his stated goals …

Ok - we give up.  The elections are all fake MAGA disinformation!  Ya'll won.

Harris won the Presidency, and the Democrats hold the Senate and House and will be kicking all conservative Justices out the the SCOTUS, and in January 2025 the record will be set straight in Washington DC - or else!!!

Methinks you have switched the actors here. How many court cases have the zdemocrats filed to contest or charge cheating? Are you predicting a Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol by Democrats?

Ah, easy on your mention of history and democracy here. History is full of nuances , including the writings of Rousseau who pointed out the fallacy of thinking the majority always is “right” in their decision. Oh, I certainly agree, the majority has chosen … and now I await the results of that decision.

Trump's supporters are going to demand he take responsibility for any failures.  But we are also going to revel in all his successes, which are going to vastly outnumber the mistakes.

 

Already, DOGE is preparing to reduce the federal government by up to 90%, and return control back to the states and local communities. So you see, in 2 years (Trump has said DOGE will be finished by the Bisesquincentennial) the Federal government is going to have delegated all those areas that can cause disasters back to people who are more directly responsible to their communities. Goodbye FEMA! We won't miss you.

 

The era of blaming big government is coming to an end, because there will no longer be a bloated, big government. And this is long overdue.

While I understand and even agree with your sentiment you are looking at this the wrong way. This was victory over an enemy. Once that enemy is properly eviscerated from the ranks of the Washington elite, then we can return to a balance with both political parties working for the best interests of America. That should happen by the 2026 midterms. But there is currently no value in having an opposition whose allegiance is to a foreign cabal.

So, there are no balances of power anymore: Trump controls all: the GOP, the Senate, the House, the High court. I hope the US citizens votes wise.

Not only a majority but not as anti Trump as the one he had first time. As long as he doesn't employ another Sessions, he'll be able to get his policies done without the past resistance.

No doubt the Dems will whine and moan and try to sabotage him, but it's just sour grapes, and hopefully he can ignore the whining. Who's a winner? Trump is a WINNER.

I'm looking forward to seeing him get stuck in on January 21, and getting the job done that he was unable to get done the first time.

As A proud old American Im looking forward to hearing one of my favorite tunes.

 

Hail to the Chief , the personal  anthem for the POTUS!

Then after the inauguration he promised he would be a dictator for one day ,to sign in many EO’s !

I am positive these things only ever happened on planet earth when whitey came and conquered north America. Never before in human history has our species acted like that.

There are two possibilities. 😀

 

Option 1: you are a new forum member and your comment was ridiculous as you cannot claim to know what I have posted during one year.

 

Option 2: you are a former member who registered again under a new forum name. Considering your worthless posts, you could well be the troll whose name was Bignok/Dolf/Susan...

Again. Your judgement is brutal. Your post history tells the story too. 

 

Keep on doing you big fella.
