Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

Trump walks in a room.

1. Moshe123 shoots at him because he is pure evil, 2. ilherman+hachover jump in front of the bullets because Trump is our savior. 3. aygart tackles Moshe123 because Trump is better than HRC, 4. but Baruch can't stand Trump so he tells aygart he's crazy and Trump is a madman. 5. ExGingi would like to point out that who cares what he is, all that matters is the supreme court nominations. 6. Dan and others aren't really sure how this makes them feel plus they don't really want to drink poison. 7. Spoiler alert: Moshe123's gun was empty, it was just a blank.

And Freddie is in the back of the room just cooking his cholent. Until he announces that there are TWO menu choices, Pareve Cholent or Vegetable Lasagna. While etech0 figured out that they are both poisoned.


Repeat x100.

And then Hilary walks into the room with the most confidence a candidate has had in recent history. She is so confident that she eats both the Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna. Everyone is the room is aghast, they don't know how this happened, could it be Comey is behind this poisoning or was it that her Obamacare premiums were to high to get her the help she needed.

Everyone stared as she choked and was cast into oblivion on November, 8, 2016 the last day she was heard from in the public eye.

Moshe123, ilherman, hachover, Baruch, ExGingi, Dan, Freddie, etech0, and the rest of America are in total shock and hope that so long as Trump doesn't eat any Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna and stays true to his supreme court nominees this may be the greatest thing to happen since the CSR and GC's.

But remember this may be the beginning of the end...

P.S. Thanks to cognitive dissonance aygart, Michael Moore, and Scott Adams knew the whole time that Trump could win, unfortunately for JTZ he may be off DDF for the next 4 years due to his mandatory 3 times daily consumption of CROW!

As things turns out, the most prescient view on this election was that of Michael Moore! Though Scott Adams is also claiming a high view level of prescience.

That party never existed
Sure it did. They use to stand up for them all the time. Pretty hard now with Trump as your poster child.

When it suited their purposes. A couple may have been partially sincere.

His base is only 30-35%. Last I checked you need more than that to win.
Yeah, obviously, it’s called ‘the base’ for a reason, it’s meant to be built upon.. didn’t suggest that you win with that alone.. but if that base isn’t fired up, you’re dead on arrival, nothing to build on.

You can debate the reasons but not who gets credit!!!

"Our current turnout estimate is 114 million votes cast in the House, breaking even our high expectations (we started at 102 iirc) and shattering the turnout of 83 million in 2014."

I agree that this constitional amendment was backed by the Ds, but I think Florida was one of only 4 states that did not allow released felons to vote.

More surprising to me is that the one constitutional  amendment (of 12) to not pass, would have lowered property taxes for most homeowners (by increasing homestead exemtion on homes with at least $100k in assessed value) Who doesn’t vote for a tax break!?!?

And in Broward, we decided to increase our sales tax to 1% to 7% (matching Miami-Dade and palm beach).

BIGGEST story for Florida Jews supporting state funding for Jewish day schools was the governor’s manshion going to DeSantis (R) who supports charter schools and is expected to nominate 3 new justices to the state Supreme Court.

A lot of "firsts" happened this election. Who is the party of inclusion? The R's better wake up or get blindsided like the D's did.

Yup, the first talking 2x4 was elected in Queens.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Middterm elections don't mean much as an indicator of presidential reelection. As mentioned, the Dems was trounced in 2010 and Obama won in 2012.

If those newly elected Dems fail to do something, it won't mean much in 2020.

If the economy is strong in 2020, they will reelect Trump.

If the Dems can't field a strong candidate in 2020, they are toast.

Truly historic. Probably the dumbest & lowest IQ ever to be elected to the House.
