The Mainstream Media is the biggest threat to our freedom. It is not a matter of free speech, it is about their role in the propagation of a corrupt system.

What I admired most about Donald Trump in this campaign is that he fought with every ounce of his being. The MSM hammered him with everything they had, probably as bad as anyone in history has been hit -- body blow after body blow, elbows to the face, kicks to the groin -- often bringing him to his knees, but he kept getting up and swinging. I have never seen a candidate work and fight so hard.

As you can see from the home page of my hometown paper, it is only going to get worse. They are trying to start a movement -- probably a violent one -- to derail his presidency. The smear jobs, the inaccurate and unfair articles, and the name calling are just going to get worse.

Let us not waste our time or energy in giving these people, the leftist media and leftists any more attention, by posting their inane emotionalism and ignorance. They do not deserve any more of our time or concern. They have cared NOT for our feelings these past 8 years. We were told to eat our peas, remember? We are racists, remember? We are Deplorables, remember? Our political signs were stolen, violence was instigated at our rallies by them! No more. They are not classical liberals anymore. They are communists. Brown shirt bullies.

It is morning in America again.

There is work to be done! We must plan.
Let’s begin to unleash our energy towards righting this great vessel with President Elect Trump.

Lose your federal funds if you remain a flipping cesspool city!

We don’t elect presidents by the popular vote and never have. Want to change that? Amend the constitution.

This is all part of the Wikileaked Soros Podesta Progressive Strategy.

They are continuing to follow the script laid out in that plan, then the target was Bush. Following the script, they will paint Trump in the most negative light possible, disrupt his agenda, etc.

It is pure Saul Alinsky.

I was watching TV today. The despair and anguish was great.

Bernie supporter ...”Appointing Hillary was like an alcoholic family refusing an intervention.”

Another...”Hillary was a terrible Canidate”.

Another...”Republicans won across the board, what did we do wrong.”

Another...”Obamacare should have been explained with simple bullet points.”

Eventually they started alternating between Van Jones calling America racist and accusing us of having a “White Lash” against Obama. And talking about how great Obama’s and Hillary’s concession speeches and talks about unity were.

Let them rage, and whine and all the things liberals do when they lose.

No do overs, no chance left to steal it.

What’s done is done and they will eventually calm down.

Donald Trump is the president elect.

Just as he has done for a year and a half, he will do what he wants and take his case directly to the people.

May God bless and protect him.

Pretty sound thinking Lopeover.

I've always respected good common sense and quality intellect.

Your response reflects BOTH.

I think in fact, a lot of the Bernie supporters indeed stayed home.

The objective, when you are running for president, is to win a majority of electoral votes. Winning a majority of popular votes is nice, but irrelevant. I mean, I imagine Trump did not devote many resources to California. If the objective was the win the popular vote, Trump would have employed a different strategy.

What people who want to point out that Clinton won the popular vote are really saying is that she used the wrong strategy. Smartest woman, my butt.
