The Trump Grin

a quote from Dennis Miller: "If you think people hate him now, just wait until his policies start working."

aka - this is the post where I make dozens of snowflakes unfollow me so that they can go their safe space.

It's hard for me to NOT be petty, especially after how absurd the deep-end left have responded to the election.

Honestly, I've been watching this all unfold since the primaries. Idiots don't get this far on luck, contrary to what cartoons have taught us.  Trump figured it how to win, he understood that he could be an angel and CNN would still give Hillary the debate questions.

Trump used outrage to get the left to draw attention to issues they didn't have any intention of fixing.  When he'd say something "offensive" he would load it with a bit of truth.  That way, when all the news casters and deep left crowd would get all self-righteous preachy on the subject ... they'd really be unwittingly drawing attention to this bit of truth.  (I mean, when was the last time you heard a politician offer ANY plan on improving immigration laws, or enforcing the laws that we already have?)  This is how he rallied support.

He also understood how the electoral college worked, not being content or justified in the popularity of celebs. (And if you still don't understand the Electorial College: your highschool and college history teachers have utterly failed you, or you failed those courses.  This should be covered in the discussions regarding why we have the Senate and the House of Representatives.)

His inaugural speech took the hide off everyone on capital hill, saying "politicians prospered while Americans suffered". Everyone on the news had relayed this out of outrage, but now every american has heard this message (and they're probably going to be less trusting of their congressmen).  Congress is going to play ball with populist Trump or lose their seats from an angry public; we're going to see the much needed term limits amendment passed along with many other things.

In his candid short speeches at the Inaugural Balls, he delivered them the same way a successful CEO would deliver a pep-talk to their company that's about to launch a major project.  (And this is me talking from my MBA degree and experience reading business press blurbs and figuring out what they're actually meaning behind the corporate lingo.)  He's already got a plan and when he gets to work Monday morning he's going to catch everyone off guard with how much he'll get done (that wouldn't take much, many of them are still in denial or grieving over the election).

As a point of advice, everyone on the left (especially the news media, the politicians, and the SJWs on tumblr) need to reassess how they're working.

...

That or everyone on the left can keep playing the identity discrimination politics card. This is why the left lost; and pursuing this path will guarantee a 2020 trump victory.

Just saying...
