Perhaps he wants to sample her dry ginger ale. Wink Laughing


Man it's hard to get anything out of you lot these days.

Just days after the potential for The Donald's recycled Watergate moment that line was golden baby golden.


read today, they got the ticket because one of their people pestered the hell out of someone in Trumps camp until he found them some to shut them up.

I wonder it Trump ever thought he would win?

Hell I wonder if he wanted to?

Threatening to run for President for many a year and then doing so often felt like just a good PR exercise for brand Trump to me.

P.S-Fair to say Melania ain't no Michelle.

Yes, he seems to have been able to follow the script in that instance.

Has the inauguration started? Or, as Faust said to Mephistopheles, are we there yet?

What are the odds he doesn't see out the 4 years?

50/50?

I wonder who the Australian equivalent of Trump would be?

Good to see this lot out, running rampant and destroying stuff coz they didn't get their own way.

Snowflake

A person of the millennial generation (or "Y" generation?) member who thinks that in order to avoid hurting each other's feelings, everyone should feel like a winner and get a participation trophy. A person who has not learned that real life is about either winning or losing. An overprivileged individual who has a hard time not getting their way. They usually calls themselves "progressives" but they are observed to throws tantrums and use profanity and arrogance when others disagree them. They accuse others of racism or intolerance, but don't judge themselves under the same criteria. They wan't to reap excellent monetary benefits while putting little effort or time into their professions.

Overwhelmed with disappointment and their "feelings", the SNOWFLAKES "peacefully" rioted, destroyed private property and invaded freeways, the day their representative lost the presidential election

Apart from your clueless conflation of radical anarchists, Clinton supporters and tiresome 'Generation Y' clichés, your definition is insightful in that you place yourself in opposition to people who "haven't learned that real life is about winning or losing". I can think of no better encapsulation of the delusions of Trump supporters. Might I posit that 'winners' and 'losers' all end up six feet under, and that there's a little more to life than whether you got to be the top chook in the hen house?

Another irony is that 'snowflake' is a term aimed at people who trumpet their individualism – precisely the kind of extreme individualism that Trump and those like him have worked so hard to promote.

He has broken a record. Not a good one, but he is now the holder:

The man can't stop speaking with his hands.

Annoys the shite out of me and it's only day one.

Hard to believe this bloke was in Russia in 2013 hosting his Miss Universe contest.

Only in America.

FMD.

When I saw the rioting my first thought was that shopping strip won't look much different! Quite shocking how beaten up and horrible parts of DC are less than a mile for two from the White House.

And yes I agree, it's bizarre, can't quite get my head around it. His missus scrubbed up well, classy. Nice.

And, paradoxically, of course, the people who are said to have voted Trump into the White House are supposed to be the downtrodden, dispossessed, average, "white", "losers" in "middle America" who have "had enough". The rhetoric really is unable to sustain its own fictional edifice.
