When his country (Denmark) becomes majority Muslim, with Sharia courts replacing the law of the land, he will either emigrate to another country or wish he had voted right wing.

I think they took the back door rout :

"the Danish parliament... passed a bill outlawing halal and kosher slaughter... What of religious freedom now? “Animal rights come before religion,” said Minister of Agriculture and Food Dan Jorgensen."

You can by heroin but not a kosher hot dog.

I hear a lot of Democrats and liberals spouting theories and accusations about Russia undermining the US election by helping Trump.

Strange, non of them are calling for securing election machines, random security audits or voter ID laws or ANY other measure to prevent vote fraud.

Putin wants to undermine confidence in our Government and the Left is helping him.

Perfect.

You left out Republicans as well.

The election machines are secure, very little fraud, that's been gone over. And both parties have people watching, auditing stuff.

Trump said this earlier in the year:
"Was there another loan that Ted Cruz FORGOT to file. Goldman Sachs owns him, he will do anything they demand. Not much of a reformer!"

Today, yet another Goldman Sachs person

Trump taps Goldman Sachs executive Cohn for key economic post

"U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on Monday said he would appoint Goldman Sachs Group Inc President and Chief Operating Officer Gary Cohn to head the White House National Economic Council, a group that coordinates economic policy across agencies."

Might as well just move the whole Goldman Sachs team in .

But what about the republicans and Goldman Sachs, bla bla bla bla.

Because Republicans haven't been fighting for voter id laws and Democrats doing everything in their power to block them... or granting clemency to felons so they can vote.

North Dakota democ-rats found thousands of absentee votes for Roy Cooper minutes before the ballot closed, then refused to re-count them but OMG the Republicans and their racist Voter ID LAWS!

Nope..

Why do Republicans have problems with early voting?

 

[mr-x]

Why do Republicans have problems with early voting?

Why do democrats have a problem with voter Id?

 

[GILSAN]

Why do democrats have a problem with voter Id?

They have a different interpretation of it. They call it voter suppression. Only the rest of the entire world calls it Voter ID. How silly of the rest of the world.

 

[JB Lions]

Why do democrats have a problem with voter Id?

I don't have a problem with it.

Why do Republicans have a problem with early voting?

 

[GILSAN]

Some pictures of the people who rigged the election... using Voter ID's

 

[mr-x]

I don't have a problem with it.

Why do Republicans have a problem with early voting?

I don't have a problem with it. Why do democrats want automatic voter registration?

LOL: Wisconsin Recount Results in NET GAIN for Donald Trump

Donald Trump won Wisconsin even harder because of Jill Stein

I don't have a problem with it. Why do democrats want automatic voter registration?

"Universal automatic voter registration means that every American would be automatically registered to vote when they turn age 18."

Never read too much on it but your issue would be?

Trump senior aide: Moving U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem a ‘very big priority’

Fantastic... this should make the MSM and the Arab world highly pissed off and that makes me happy. Bring it on Trump...

Donald Trump has lost popular vote by greater margin than any US President in history

"President-elect is now 2.8 million votes behind Hillary Clinton - five times more than the second biggest deficit"

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...n-us-election-president-history-a7470116.html

We got a fraud and a puppet going in, someone who lacks intellectual curiosity, work ethic.

It's an open door for fraud. Just like automatic registration at the DMV in CA and OR.

Wow.. too bad popular vote means absolutely nothing.

"President-elect is now 2.8 million votes behind Hillary Clinton - five times more than the second biggest deficit"

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...n-us-election-president-history-a7470116.html

Neither candidate broke 50%.

We got a fraud and a puppet going in, someone who lacks intellectual curiosity, work ethic.

Wait, wut?? Hillary didn't win.

Trump is like fuck an intelligence briefing, let me tweet about my tour. Get your tickets, get your tickets...

Much more important to heap praise upon oneself, instead of getting prepared for your new job.

Just going to leave this "fake" news here and let you liberals ponder the effect that MAGA is going to have over the course of the next 4 to 8 years...

Not like you to praise Obama, July 2016

Stocks have never been higher

http://money.cnn.com/2016/07/12/investing/dow-stock-new-high-record/?iid=EL

"The facts are inescapable: The Obama years have been among the best of times to be a stock investor, going all the way back to the dawn of the 20th century."

It's guessing what will happen under Trump, probably not good. We already know what happened under Obama.

 

[N-A]

Stocks have never been higher

Looking at the historic chart of the DJI, it's gone up under every president. So, not to be bias here, Obama may have had an influence on the markets. Which policies those were, I'm unsure of to be honest.

However, you cannot dispute that the rally we've seen under Trump since November 9th (Hillary took a whole night off to wait and concede) has been the greatest and supersedes anything Obama could have had an influence on while in office.

The lowest point in the Obama administration was Mar 06, 2009 at 6,595.16. It took approximately 55 days until Apr 30, 2009 to regain, and maintain the average, of the 1463.69 points we saw under Trump's President-elect status, which I remind you, he has only held for 35 days.

Yes, we did see a rise in markets under Obama. A slow rise. However, it's indisputable thus far, that we haven't seen a rise under Trump, that probably will surpass Obama's over the next 4-8 years. This holds especially true when the DJI breaks the 20,000 under Trump; we will see a rally that will hold like no other (if history repeats and we see the same surge as we did at 1k, 2k, 5k, 10k, etc.).
