Trump picks Betsy DeVos as Secretary of Education.

Strong advocate of school choice. Hopefully will help inner city schools.

I wish guys like Mark Cuban would put some resources into teaching entrepreneurism in high schools and adult education. Nothing keeps kids in school like enthusiasm.

Post an updated one.

If Pres. Obama didn't have a history of lying and fudging numbers that don't match his political claims, I might take the time.

You're being dishonest with that post knowing Obama doesn't make those numbers.

Watching CNN the other day, an Obama admin spokesperson tried to say immigration from Mexico is now going the other direction. More people leaving then coming. CNN wasn't even buying that one.

Not him personally, but I never argued that. His administration does.

That's not how it works. Even Trump said in the debate:

“President Obama has moved millions of people out,” he said. “Nobody knows about it. Nobody talks about it. But under Obama, millions of people have been moved out of this country. They’ve been deported. She doesn’t want to say that, but that’s what has happened.”

With the chart above, even tho it ends in 2014, you see years prior? You see when he took office in 2008? There is no record illegal immigration like you posted.

Watching CNN the other day, an Obama admin spokesperson tried to say immigration from Mexico is now going the other direction. More people leaving then coming. CNN wasn't even buying that one.

I would point out:

"Mexicans made up 52% of all unauthorized immigrants in 2014, though their numbers had been declining in recent years. There were 5.8 million Mexican unauthorized immigrants living in the U.S. that year, down from 6.4 million in 2009, according to the latest Pew Research Center estimates."

But it has increased a little from other countries. But overall, with the numbers we have available, declining/steady.

Even tho it doesn't matter because we're not a true democracy

Clinton's lead passes the 2 million mark

So? Give her a medal. If the rules were different the Donald would have campaigned only in NY and Cali and the results would have been much different.

Stop whining.

Have you ever been to Calif?
Wouldn't have mattered if he had campaigned here night and day.
California would have never voted Trump in.

 

[sofiapartner]

@lennco , I've been to Cali and NY. And I understand that. But it would have given him more votes at least.

If you see the electoral map - it is almost all red. And it is UNITED STATES of America after all. Not California or New York Republic.

I am not from US, but you are determining the politics of the world - that is why guys like me and @GILSAN are so interested and involved in your politics, even though we are on the other side of the ocean I am more interested in your elections than those in my country. Crazy stuff.

Just to add that it feels so great to see guys like @JB Lions so surprised. I don't know what these liberals are smoking. But he is a good guy. He refused to bet $500 for hillary, just to save me some money, because all the major polls were showing that I am a lunatic.

BREAKING!! Ben Carson ACCEPTS Secretary position at Housing and Urban Development!!

Ben Carson is fit for neither HHS nor HUD and shouldn't get within a mile of either. He'd make a fine Surgeon General, but that's about it. - @EsotericCD

Nobody's whining, that's more dramatic for you. And even if he just campaigned in those 2 states, he still would have lost.

Maybe but not for sure yet.

"However, Williams immediately pushed back on the story in a phone call with The Hill, saying that he had been misquoted in the story and that no decision had been made.

“Dr. Carson is still considering it,” Williams said. “The president-elect asked him to consider, and he is still considering and said he would take through Thanksgiving to decide.”

Little context for you, I know you got all excited with all that red. You guys thinking there are no Hillary supporters or Dems in those "red areas" but those red spots could have been red with just 1 more vote.

He's an arrogant Progressive... he'll never admit he's wrong

One of my favorite moments was this memorable exchange between Brianna Keilar, a CNN reporter, and Michael Cohen, Donald Trump’s lawyer.

Keilar said, almost cheerfully: “You guys are down.”

“Says who?” answered Cohen, steely faced

“Polls. Most of them. All of them!”

Cohen was quiet for a long time, then: “Says who?”

“Polls. I just answered your question,” and now she sounded a little desperate.

“Which polls?”

“All of them.”

The Liberal media showed this exchange while making fun of Cohen — the supposed idiot. But who was right? Who is laughing best and laughing last?

The same is true of the fact-checkers — a new profession in America, in which people claim to be testing facts for their truth content (95% of them favoring Hillary), that arrogant irritants like JB Lions like to gobble up all day long and swear till they are blue in the face that they are right and everyone else is wrong.

The greatest pleasure I got from Trumps win was to see the Liberal Media get their a$$es kicked, really really hard.

Amazing insight from somebody who claims not to be reading my posts for the last few years. I think it's more you fake blocked me because you couldn't debate your points with me, knowing a good chunk of the stuff you post are easily take apart lies. From time to time, I'll still take them apart.

Here's an article about people like you:

Trump understands what many miss: people don’t make decisions based on facts

http://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2016/11/16/13426448/trump-psychology-fact-checking-lies

Polls are still polls and facts/fact sites are still facts. Not one person who's whined about those fact check sites have stepped up to the plate and taken them apart. Not one time. They take apart everybody. Obviously if you lie more (Trump) there will be more to take apart. They take apart Hillary, Sanders etc. as well.

What most liberals miss in their analysis of why Hillary lost is their own arrogance and blind love for Barack.

Everything in this Article also applies to progressives in the media. They are not magically immune to bias and human nature.

BHO has had the complete support and protection of the media because of his "historic Presidency". Progressives love and idolize no-drama Obama. He confirms their vain moral superiority and Marxist beliefs.

Journalist abandoned their responsibility. As a result, BHO is comfortable telling huge lies b/c there will be little in the way of consequences.

Middle class and poor Americans have been shit on by progressive policies for eight years. They don't trust the press b/c they are not trustworthy.

1) Rich people had a great eight years. ( they always do )

2) Hillary is an elitist and ran a terrible campaign.

3) As bad as Trump is, he not as bad as Hillary.

Trump isn't a conservative. With a wink and a nod, the media and democrats helped DT bury better men like Scott Walker, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio.

Congratulations. Now we're all gonna win so much, we're gonna get sick of winning.

 

[mr-x]

Barack Obama was a terrible President b/c he wouldn't compromise.

Bill Clinton was a successful President b/c he accepted and worked with Republicans.

History will be kinder to WJC than BHO.

Donald Trump knows that compromise is just a negotiation. Get used to losing libs.
