    Smoothy, I'm sick and tired of your racist rhetoric. And I'm not going to put up with it anymore. I don't believe Obama was a demigod or that his administration was perfect. I am perfectly willing to face reality if there are facts that show things. If you can't produce those facts then I can't accept that reality.

    Hello smoothy:

    My worth is NYOB, but suffice to say, if I started with a $ million loan from my father like Trump did, I'd be worth a 100 times what he is today. You know I'm in business, right? Trump even had a head start.. I handicapped myself with a criminal record.

    Hi smoothy, I haven't replied more to your message because the editor doesn't recognise the space bar, but there is no use in making any of this personal. I don't get your comment about a northward facing moon, all moons where I come from are northward facing and we all come out and bay at them once a month, Ahroow!

    I didn't ask you for your net worth... read what I said. But someone who is barely able to live paycheck to paycheck... and hasn't made themselves a BUNCH of money in their adult lives... really is in no position to cast aspirations on others, particularly others who have. If you have... good for you... then you aren't one of them.

    Nothing like coulda woulda shoulda....fact is you didn't and why I picked a number thats not that hard to reach...than many people have.

    As far as your record..as far as I know it was a one time thing and you did your time.....I have issues with those who keep getting busted over and over and over.

    What about an ordinary everyday blue collar worker like myself? Is it okay to blast a lying bloviated ego maniac like your hero Trump? No need to respond since I will anyway!

    Well if your going to mention about making it personal... you're late to the game... someone else already did that... and it wasn't me.


    BTW... northward facing moon.. wasn't directed at you... don't think it was an American thing... but giving the moon is dropping trou, and bending over... similar to the one finger salute, or "shooting the Bird" in meaning. Northward facing implied the direction it was given.

    I know a lot of "blue Collar workers" with net worths well into the 7 figures range. But then you have a choice... live abouve your means now... or live below your means for years and invest it... You think I'm self employed or some corporate executive... man you really don't know me then. SO who is really the out of touch ones here... better grab a mirror because I haven't ever been a paper pushing manager...

    But then....like I've said..Trump won..get over it.

    If you was a Saunders person..Trump didn't steal your primary....Hillary and her minions did that..... Saunders ( not my guy however) might have won...that's the Fault of the DNC.

    If you were a Hillary person..then your standards are REALLY low and have no moral high ground to harp about anything Trump might do. Lots of Saunders people Voted Trump because they couldn't stomach Hillary either.

    Don't you have anything better to do, how about some constructive criticism.

    Back to the theme, it would seem that Dump would be very confused about the McCain/Republican agenda. What part of being in power do they not understand? Where I come from we would call McCain's action Shytting in your own nest

    Where I come from we call it truth to power, and it's a bedrock of the republic. You know that free speech thing?!

    I wasn't commenting on free speech, just stupidity, or in McCain's case dementia

    I don't see McCains comments as stupid or demented. He often has broken from his party line on many issues.

    How about the lefties present credible facts and stop the incessant ranting.

    Look at the topic of this thread... ZERO proof what so ever... And could even legally be considered libelous if a lawsuit was ever brought by the accused party.

    Did you watch the press conference where he claimed he had the biggest electoral margin? He was clearly stunned and confused when his statement was debunked. So much for your "ZERO proof".

    You get that from CNN? And his electoral margin was significant... it wasn't even close.

    Directly from Reuters... a very left leaning source..

    The Republican businessman, whose presidential campaign was his first bid for public office, garnered 304 electoral votes, compared with 227 won by his Democratic challenger, Hillary Clinton, according to the vote tally read by Vice President Joe Biden.

    That's NO small margin in anyone's book... care to disprove that and claim it was a close call? So Debunked? Far from it.

    No I got that from watching the live press conference. And you are missing the point. Trump made the statement that he had the largest margin since Reagan. A reporter confronted him with the fact that there were greater margins. This got him nonplussed and confused. It was very clear to anyone watching. I'm not arguing about how many electoral votes he got or how significant it was. I'm talking only about how he reacted when he was caught in an untruth.
