Sat next to a trumper on the plane today who actually believes trump is going to solve our problem

He was just sure that ythe economy was going to skyrocket on January 20th. I said, I remember reaganomics differently.

He just kept insisting that it was going to be great. They are dumber that they look.

Users of Airbnb, the housing share site, are pulling their listings in the DC area

Users of Airbnb, the housing share site, are pulling their listings because they don’t want Trumpsters staying in their homes.

Thanks To Capitalism, It Just Got A Lot Harder For Trump Supporters To Attend Inauguration
By


Just like with every presidential inauguration year, Washington, D.C. will become complete chaos during the week of the ceremony. Trump supporters, though, might find it a lot more difficult to find places to stay, though. Users of Airbnb, the housing share site, are pulling their listings because they don’t want Trumpsters staying in their homes.

Most in the country expected that it would be Hillary Clinton who would be inaugurated on January 20th, so the town was pretty well booked with Democrats. Unfortunately, the mostly blue city was slapped with a dose of Electoral College reality and those reservations are being cancelled in droves, but the people who were set to make bank by renting out their homes aren’t necessarily putting the listings back up, at least not for the inauguration.

Donald Trump Is Puzzled About All This Russia Hacking Stuff

Unless you catch "hackers" in the act, it is very hard to determine who was doing the hacking. Why wasn't this brought up before election?

My Alma Mater Northwest Missouri State University will play in their 10th national title game

The have had two back to back perfect seasons and are carrying a record 29 straight winning streak, best in all football.

So after their opponents were trash talking coming into today's game, this was what happened after the game.

They always take out the goal post after a semi-final home win. One goes in the college pond, the other to a local bar to be cut into pieces as souvenirs.

I passed by 4 businesses today because they had trump signs out front.

I am sorry, if you are in business, you should not be displaying or discussing political views.

Garrison Keillor: Life after the election Garrison Keillor

He will never be my president because he doesn't read books, can't write more than a sentence or two at a time, has no strong loyalties beyond himself, is more insular than any New Yorker I ever knew, and because I don't see anything admirable or honorable about him. This sets him apart from other politicians. The disaffected white blue-collar workers elected a Fifth Avenue tycoon to rescue them from the elitists -- fine, I get that -- but they could've chosen a better tycoon. One who served in the military or attends church or reads history, loves opera, sails a boat -- something -- anything -- raises llamas, plays the oboe, runs a 5K race now and then, has close friends from childhood. I look at him and there's nothing there.

Today Show interview with Trump proves we elected the single most fragile ego in American history

Today Show interview with Trump proves we elected the single most fragile ego in American history

Donald Trump phoned in for an interview on The Today Show to talk about being named as Time Magazine’s “Person of the Year” and Matt Lauer pivoted to Saturday Night Live, asking the notoriously thin-skinned president-elect (gag) why he keeps watching. Wouldn’t it be more presidential to simply not watch the show and get on with the business of the country? LOL. This is Trump we are talking about here. He can’t stop, won’t stop because he has the most fragile ego outside of North Korea’s Imperial Palace. The transcript and video are below, as well as the SNL skit that set off his tweet tantrum last weekend. Enjoy!

LAUER: On that subject of a lighter note but on a lighter note, can we agree, President-elect Trump, that at this stage it would be better for you to stop watching SNL as opposed to watching it and then complaining about it?

TRUMP: Well, I hosted SNL when it was a good show, but it’s not a good show anymore. First of all, nothing to do with me, there’s nothing funny about it, the skits are terrible.

LAUER: So why do you keep watching?

TRUMP: I like Alec, but his imitation of me is really mean-spirited and not very good. I don’t think it’s good. And I do like him and I like him as an actor, but I don’t think that his imitation of me gets me at all and it’s meant to be mean-spirited, which is very biased. And I don’t like it.

LAUER: But you can’t bring yourself to stop watching it?

TRUMP: Frankly, the way the show is going now, and you look at the kind of work they’re doing, who knows how long that show is going to be on? It’s a terrible show.
