Anti-Trump Hysteria

This is some funny shit.

Quote:
The response to the shock has been to turn campuses into kindergarten. The University of Michigan Law School announced a ”post-election self-care” event with “food" and "play,” including “coloring sheets, play dough (sic), positive card-making, Legos and bubbles with your fellow law students.”

Stanford emailed its students and faculty that psychological counseling was available for those experiencing “uncertainty, anger, anxiety and/or fear” following the election. So did the University of Michigan’s Flint campus.

Meanwhile, even the Ivy League wasn’t immune, with the University of Pennsylvania (Trump’s alma mater) creating a post-election safe space with puppies and coloring books:

At Cornell, The Fix reported, students held a "cry in."

Yale had a ”group scream.”

At Tufts, the university offered arts and crafts, while the University of Kansas reminded students that there were plenty of “therapy dogs” available.

At other schools, exams were canceled and professors expressed their sympathy to traumatized students.
"A cry In"

"A group scream"

But you obviously are not.

Perhaps a "Therapy Dog" would help.

Do you think your Tricare would cover that?

According to NBC News, Democratic staffers were so distraught over this week’s election that “therapy dogs” had to be brought in to help workers on Capitol Hill cope with their vulnerabilities and hurt feelings.

Therapy Dogs included two golden doodles, two American Eskimo dogs, and a beagle mix – walked around the offices of the House of Representatives.
The dogs were organized by NGOs the Human Animal Bond Research Initiative, Pet Partners, the Pet Leadership Council and the Pet Industry Joint Advisory Council.
Quote:
Their press release says that Democratic Party staffers needed, “the help of a non-judgmental, furry, four-legged best friend that enjoys bipartisan support.”
I guess that's one way of saying the Dog doesn't give a shit who won the election.

Number one, Ryan ain't in charge.

Trump is the Big Kahuna and Trump has said he's not going to cut Medicare or Social Security.

Number two, even though the Democrats had their asses handed to them, they are still going to have 48 Senate seats and they only need 41 to block anything like this. They would have to be a bunch of gutless pussies not to.

Oh shit! Maybe we do have something to worry about.

Anyone who believes a single word of Trump's campaign promises has rocks in their head. That dude changes position within the same sentence with no punctuation.

Sure, because you've been right on the money about Trump all along.

There's a veritable gold mine of past posts of yours that will demonstrate what an awesome prognosticator you are. That is unless you've deleting the Hell out of them like you Gal did all of her embarrassing emails.

Any bets you'd like to place on how quickly the ACA faces legislative action after 1/20/17?

"Jetzt muss er liefern", as we say in German, literally - now he must deliver. (For example jobs, jobs, jobs... By the way, does America have already enough Autobahnen?)

But he has nothing to deliver but soap bubbles.
