Random Thoughts: Settling Into the Idea of a Trump Presidency

There was huge and very successful effort to suppress minority vote in the presidential election. It’s called “nominating Hillary Clinton.”

People on the left: If you want to learn from this, stop focusing on why everyone else is horrible and focus on why you are horrible.

“If we hate and marginalize a large group of people, good things will happen!” -racists, leftists

If California secedes, Trump is going to make them pay for their wall.

I hope Donald Trump does well as president, which means him not doing a lot of things he’s proposed to do.

The DNC leadership needs to get purged. I’d say the same for the RNC, but that ain’t gonna happen now. I think I got purged.

Trump appointing climate denier head of the EPA, education denier as Secretary of Education, and country denier as Secretary of State.

From a feminist perspective, it did seem kind of silly we were going to have our first woman president be the spouse of a previous president.

It’s wrong that Supernatural is still so much fun in it’s 12th season.

I still can’t believe what happened. Didn’t anyone read the New York Times’ endorsement of Hillary?

Here’s a way of looking at it: The government is the worst part of our country, so we should get the worst person we can find to head it.

I think Nate Silver has earned a victory lap for this election even more so than he did in 2012.

It’s like the left don’t understand there are other bad things in this world than racism. That can’t be your sole argument.
“I know we ignore all your concerns, but you have to vote for this corrupt plutocrat to fight racism!”

It’s kind of terrifying that the air around us is filled with invisible creatures that want to eat us -though usually they wait until we die.

We all know 2016 has been a crappy year, but when was the last really good year?

“We keep yelling ‘Bigot!’ at people, and yet they persist in existing! I don’t get it!”

Should probably wait until President Trump does something worth protesting. So like late January.

I hope Trump keeps tweeting. The only reason to stop him is so we can pretend he’s something he isn’t.
Well, maybe that and national security.

We should amend the Constitution that the winner of the popular vote in a presidential election gets a nifty plaque.

I’d be ecstatically happy if the most embarrassing thing Trump does in foreign affairs is vomit on the prime minister of Japan.

The left freaking out and overreacting about Trump is normalizing him because that’s what they’d do about any Republican.
Can they do something new – like a stunned silence – so people don’t start thinking he’s just an average Republican?

I think the most effective way to deal with Trump would be to ignore him. No law says you have to cover the president.

I was really concerned about the crisis of Americans only reading fake news, but it ends up that was an Onion article.

Trump told me to come in tomorrow to interview for being Secretary of State. Do you know if he’s talking to other candidates?
Anyone know how much I can negotiate on pay?

I think strategy is put kids movie on Netflix so kids will watch over and over and demand a DVD when it disappears from Netflix.

“I want to watch Minions movie!”
“Not on Netflix anymore.”
“This means nothing to me because I’m 3. Fulfill my request, father.”

One of the worst ways to find out you’re adopted has to be traveling back in time to kill your grandfather and failing to create a paradox.

Booing is okay, but not even a serial killer deserves getting lectured by actors.

For those who badmouth 2016, remember that we’re living in the golden age of television. And apples. So many delicious apple varieties.

All politicians should be booed all the time everywhere.

I can already tell that 2020 is going to be a close race between Trump’s own awfulness and the awfulness of his loudest detractors.

A) Trump is awful.
B) The Hamilton cast’s “I hope you learned from us” lecture was extremely arrogant and emblematic of why Trump won.
C) I hope emblematic is an actual word used correctly. Sometimes my brain hands me odd vocabulary and I just assume it knows what it’s doing.

What are the betting odds on Trump completing a full term?

Finished Luke Cage. The Netflix Marvel series just keep getting better and better.
I thought highlight was the actress who played Misty Knight. Main villain was kinda hokey, though. Secondary villains were very well done.
Actually, almost everyone was a complex character except main villain who apparently had an evil (and crazy) switch flipped in the past.

Kids are watching Dinosaur Kings and now I have to keep explaining there’s nothing in paleontological evidence about special attacks.

How do so many people not know Nazis are bad? Do kids not play Wolfenstein in school anymore?

Becoming president seems like a really good business opportunity for Trump.

My fear is the very legitimate and important criticisms of Trump will get buried under dumb partisan criticisms of him.

Despite fitting in your lower abdomen, your intestines are 20 feet in length. So they’re laid out much like an IKEA.

I don’t start my new job until next week, but my wife is buying Honeycrisp apples like we’re rich people.

We got our depressing election result. Can’t believe people are so worked up because they really wanted the other possible depressing result.

The place to call chicanery was the primary, not the general. How’d we end up with those two as our options?

I described to my 6yo what the movie Die Hard is and she said, “How is that a Christmas movie?” Ugh. I hope she isn’t one of those people.

I don’t like these Batman toys made for little kids. I don’t care if it’s for a 3yo; Batman doesn’t smile.

People rightly criticized Trump for not condemning David Duke, but isn’t not condemning Fidel Castro even morally worse?

Are there really people on the left who don’t understand Fidel Castro was horrible? I thought that was just vicious slander about them.

The main opposition to Trump is going to be led by people with “nuanced” views about Fidel Castro. We’re doomed.

Whether Hitler or Castro, I wish we lived in a country where we could all just agree that murderous dictators are bad.

Fidel Castro was a freedom fighter – if he found freedom anywhere in his country, he fought it.

“How could people choose ignorant racists over us, enlightened liberals? BTW, a murderous dictator who oppressed his country is good.”

Romney would add a nice odd couple element to our new White House reality show.

Never understood stuffing. Soggy bread is something we usually seek to avoid. That’s why we have toasters.

Right needs to handle its racists and left needs to handle its people who respond to the litany of abuses of Castro with “free healthcare!”

One of my favorite movie scenes has to be Johnny Depp asking Danny Trejo if he’s a Mexican or a Mexican’t.

I liked Finding Dory, but why were they throwing whole fish to a whale shark, a filter feeder?
Also, I don’t think clams can talk.

Wouldn’t having the electoral college take the presidency away from Trump basically end this country? Do people really mean that seriously?
We have our horrible new president. Deal with it. Stop trying to get some other horrible president who wasn’t elected.
Do people really want like a military coup on top of all this nonsense?

Won’t you take me to
Funkytown
They stopped allowing
Uber cars

It should count for something that Hillary won by over 2 million votes in Presidential Election: The Home Game.

Never before has someone been able to completely dominate the news with so little effort.

  1. We should amend the Constitution that the winner of the popular vote in a presidential election gets a nifty plaque.
    [Actually, shouldn’t that just be a participation medal?]

    Sure clams can talk, but only when standing in for money.

  2. We all know 2016 has been a crappy year, but when was the last really good year?
    I think 1989 was the last really good year. That’s the year the Berlin Wall came down and it looked like Communism was on it’s death bed, at least in Europe. Our economy was doing better than today and no one had never heard of a man named Barack Obama. The practitioners of Islam though dangerous had not yet morphed into the merciless religion of death they are today, and best of all I was 27 years younger than I am now.

  3. Never understood stuffing. Soggy bread is something we usually seek to avoid. That’s why we have toasters.

    Try stuffing with sausage and diced apples (yes, apples, and not just because you’re on a apple rampage) and turkey juice.

    Essentially, turn it into a sausage meal and it tastes better.

    Oh, and you can leave out the stuffing if you want to cut carbs in the dish.
