Poll of the Day > 2020 or 2024 can't get here quick enough.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I want off this Trump train.

Instead of posting near-daily topics about hating Trump, we can just assume you still hate Trump =p Personally, I'm continually amused by the hyperbolic stupidity embodied by the overly dramatic headlines and manufactured controversies. The NYT had an op-ed which succinctly discusses these issues:

The End of Trump and the End of Days

To travel the liberal byways of social media over recent weeks was to learn that Donald Trump was on the precipice of axing Robert Mueller and was likely to use the days just before Christmas, when we were distracted by eggnog and mistletoe, to lower the blade.

Christmas has come. Christmas has gone. Mueller has not.

To listen to Nancy Pelosi and other Democratic leaders, the tax overhaul that Trump just signed into law is no mere plutocratic folly. Its Armageddon (Pelosis actual word). Their opposition is righteous, but how will millions of voters who notice smaller withholdings from their paychecks and more money in their pockets square that seemingly good fortune with such prophecies of doom on a biblical scale?

Some of these Americans may decide that the prophets arent to be trusted and that the president isnt quite the pestilence they make him out to be.

Im not minimizing Trumps capriciousness or cupidity. He could yet fire Mueller, the special counsel. Some conservatives intensifying attacks on the counsel and the F.B.I. are clearly grist for that.

And the tax bill is indeed a messy, fiscally reckless means for Republican lawmakers to please their donors and crow that they are getting big things done.

But the end of the world? Come on. Thats not par-for-the-course hyperbole. Its peculiar-to-Trump hyperventilation, an understandable response to such an indecent president but quite possibly a tactical mistake. It could weaken the odds of hobbling him next fall, in the midterm elections, and of putting him far behind us in November 2020. And thats where I, for one, want him: in the rearview mirror, growing tinier and tinier as we zoom, pedal to the metal, toward a saner, more dignified horizon.

But I worry. When Trumps opponents react to so much of what he says and does with such unfettered outrage, that howl becomes background noise, and its harder to make sure that his unequivocally foul maneuvers stand out from his debatably foolish ones. When we constantly conjure the direst scenarios, we risk looking like ignorable hysterics and bolstering his grandiose claims of martyrdom if events unfold in a less damnable fashion.

"lol I can't believe people still complain about Trump" Zeus muses from his Trump cave as his state of the art Trump alarms notify him of every Trump related article posted on the Trumpernet or Trump of the day, so he can constantly talk about them and bring them up at every opportunity, while his Trumplight gently massages his nether regions.

I hope by then the video game console market is dead and we only have to own a quality PC to play every video game coming out.

Lol.

It's like you want me to set you on ignore again. Like a "I double dog dare you" to ignore me again.

I don't always post topics about Trump. It's just these anti-Trump topics that you seem to flock to.

I didn't vote for him last time, but I'll gladly vote for him next time, just because it's been such a blast watching all you libs melt the fuck down.

And if he doesn't run again, I'll vote for Pence.

Yeah honestly, I'm not a fan of his at all. But watching authoritarian liberals screech because they aren't getting their way is somewhat entertaining. I'm still thrilled Hillary lost.

When you nominate terrible candidates, you have no compelling reason to convince someone to vote for them, except to use fear mongering as a tactic to convince them that the opposition is worse, and then that opposition fails to live up to your fear mongering.... that's how you get eight years of Trump.

waaaaaahhhh!

Don't hold your breath. You probably won't feel the economic crash of his Regan-style tax cuts until 2020 or 2024.

I don't even live in the damn USA, but I'm genuinely sick of all the Trump/Hillary stuff when it's not a gif of her looking psyched at those falling balloons. What does whining about the election results even do?
---

Yup, I can't wait for Trump's 2020 reelection campaign either.

Aw, how cute. Liberals trigger conservatives so badly that we're all they think about other than their delusions!

I love you too, boo boo! *kisses*

Not gonna bother reading any of the responses. I'm just going to agree. I will however quote some They Might Be Giants lyrics instead:

I was working all night in my office
When a man I had recently killed
Called me up from a phone near my building
So I looked out the window at him
He had the same obsequious manner
That was the reason I had him killed
So to calm my nerves I sang this song
To him, over the phone

Turn around, turn around
There's a thing there that can be found
Turn around, turn around
It's a human skull on the ground
Human skull on the ground
Turn around

I was out by myself in the graveyard
I was doing an interpretive dance
When I felt something heavy and pointed
Strike me in the back of the neck
And then the ghost of my dance instructor
Pushed me down into an open grave
And as dirt rained down she played a xylophone
And sang me this song

Turn around, turn around
There's a thing there that can be found
Turn around, turn around
It's a human skull on the ground
Human skull on the ground
Turn around

We were waving our arms out the window
Of a fast moving passenger train
Acting in an irresponsible fashion
Until the engineer whose back had been turned
And who we thought would find us highly amusing
Quickly swiveled his head around
And his face which was a paper-white mask of evil
Sang us this song

Turn around, (round) turn around (round)
There's a thing there that can be found (there's a thing there that can be)
Turn around, (found) turn around (round)
It's a human skull on the ground (it's a human skull on the)
Human skull (ground) on the ground (round)
Turn around (turn around, turn around)

Turn around, (round) turn around (round)
There's a thing there that can be found (there's a thing there that can be)
Turn around, (found) turn around (round)
It's a human skull on the ground (it's a human skull on the)
Human skull (ground) on the ground (round)
Turn around (turn around, turn around)

You should have just quoted your own signature, and then stepped back to really think about it.

Kinda like how liberals can't stop talking about Trump? Really you whiners are unavoidable. Can't log into my Facebook or look at the news without someone whining about how Trump eats fried chicken or something. Bunch of big babies mad they didn't get their way

Its probably going to be more like 2024. The liberals are just dumb enough to put Killary out there again in 2020. Maybe the Rock will save us all...

I'm really hoping for a meteor to wipe humanity out because this shit is fucking annoying. Can we go back to when social media didn't exist and nobody talked about politics because we didn't have to have a constant stream of consciousness conversation with the world?

I doubt Trump will seek a second term, and I highly doubt he'll win reelection if he does.

Reportedly, hes miserable and hates the job, but I could see him running out of sheer spite towards his detractors.
