I'd also very much like to see HRC become a convicted felon (after 20 January 2017 of course).<br /><br />We must remain vigilant. Watch the GOP and primary all who didn't get the message sent last night. This is a first and significant battle but the war will take a long time to win.

But I <i>am</i> breathing a sigh of relief.<br /><br />We stepped back from the brink last night. But that doesn't mean we're out of danger just yet.<br /><br />In particular, my sisters, brothers, and I will want to watch Trump carefully, and make sure he doesn't go off "into the weeds," such as by introducing measures that would infringe our rights. He's got plenty to do just in staying "on mission" and sticking to the themes that were the centerpiece of his campaign...and, if those actually come to fruition, LGBT people should benefit along with everybody else.<br /><br />(Of course, first, most of them will have to lay off the caterwauling because their hopelessly-corrupt and lawless candidate lost.

I'm enough of a realist to recognize that one human who is demonstrably not fully divine as well as fully human cannot undo the damage inflicted over many decades. As was said over at Western Rifle Shooters yesterday (and I'll edit slightly for temporal relevance), the problem isn't that Hillary is an unethical, corrupt, criminal, lying dirtbag -- everyone knows that. The problem is that her supporters did not and do not care.<br /><br />As far as Trump soliciting assistance from those who did not support him in healing the country's divisions, I'll allow that he pretty much had to say words to that effect in his victory speech. That being said, compromise is possible only when the involved parties are in agreement as to the desired end state, i.e., the differences to be resolved concern the mechanics of how to reach that end state. Where the goals are different, no compromise is possible. People who substitute emotion (how they feel about something) for logic (what they actually think about something, assuming they are capable of critical thought) don't understand the concept of compromise, and that's why I choose to disengage from future interaction with them.<br /><br />"There is no voting our way out of this" is still very much in effect. Yesterday bought us some time, and I *do* thank G-d for that.Bob T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07154297944632565450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-24532621759817270452016-11-09T07:52:14.783-05:002016-11-09T07:52:14.783-05:00Trump had 256 electoral votes, and it was taking f...Trump had 256 electoral votes, and it was taking forever for the final returns from Pennsylvania and Michigan to be announced. The wife and I couldn't stay up any longer. Turned the sound off on the TV. Minutes later, stuck my head up off the pillow and saw Trump was elected. Had to stay up a while longer.<br />Then came the acceptance speech. It was incredible. Humility! Conciliation! And, dare I say it, Statesmanship! This wasn't the Trump seen during the early days of the campaign. This was President Trump. A remarkable transformation; almost as remarkable as his being elected.<br />There are already positive signs from the rest of the world. Duterte of the Philippines sent congratulations and "wants to work together."<br />My God, Putin sent a congratulatory telegram and the Russian parliament burst into applause! <br />It looks as if the world miraculously turned into a better place overnight. Let's all hope that's true. <br />Stay vigilant. There's much work yet to be done. Keep praying. brinsternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-85130322773594106402016-11-09T07:42:18.247-05:002016-11-09T07:42:18.247-05:00The truly hysterically funny thing is, that the wa...The truly hysterically funny thing is, that the wailing and gnashing of teeth seems to be worse among the Canadian liberal/lefty crowd than in the US...robins111https://www.blogger.com/profile/14847712978087149467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-57365659542851131122016-11-09T06:44:21.874-05:002016-11-09T06:44:21.874-05:00AMEN!
