Racists and bigots have been empowered by Trump's election win. We see it in this forum as well. When facts seize to be facts, when objective truth is disputed this becomes a free-for-all country. You can thank Trump once again. From the BBC: Trump inauguration: President disputes crowd photos President Donald Trump has accused the media of dishonestly reporting that there were empty spaces on the National Mall at his inauguration. Trump's inauguration (left) and Obama's in 2009 http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-38707722

I believe this is his inauguration speech.... Φίλοι, προσδεθείτε. Αρχίζει η κατηφόρα!

Even Greeks are threatened in the dawn of the Trump era: Being Told To “Speak F*$&ing English” So I was standing in line at the grocery store, speaking to my wife…in Greek. Out of nowhere I hear some grumbling behind me that seemed like someone was trying to tell me something. I turn around, say “Excuse me?” And I get a loud “Speak English, this is America!” thrown at me. https://mic.com/articles/165904/woman-tells-greek-speaking-couple-in-grocery-store-to-speak-english-manager-asks-her-to-leave#.ara4y696U Maybe Trump supporters in this forum are a bit happier with how things are going?

Two days before inauguration day, here is Obama's last press conference as US President. Full transcript available here: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/18/us/politics/obama-final-press-conference.html

Thank you for the article reference Mr. @Epicurus Seeing that you are new here welcome to this forum.

If there are any honest-to-God conservatives in here (no need for that), a very well written opinion Kathleen Parker, a politically conservative-leaning columnist for The Washington Post. Did we really elect Donald Trump?

For anybody that has half a brain.

There's even a term describing Trump's and (Russian) tactics: gaslighting. From CNN - Donald Trump is 'gaslighting' all of us http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/10/opinions/donald-trump-is-gaslighting-america-ghitis/index.html

Moscow alleged to have enough material to blackmail Trump. Moscow alleged to have enough material to blackmail Trump The full document (as published from BuzzFeed) so that Americans can make up their own minds about allegations about Trump that have circulated at the highest levels of the US government. Holy smokes... This is the guy that will lead America? How long before impeachment?

Obviously your entire being revolves around your a**hole. Sorry I didn't realize that earlier. Just like your role model (Trump) you can't carry an intelligent conversation without bringing it down to the gutter. If you really care about your patents and family, go jump off a bridge or something. Just make sure there's water underneath so there's no mess to clean up.

Are you talking from personal experience? Making good use of your bottom?

"Our next president"? Since when? “Those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it.” - ever hear that one? Probably not. Only a shallow being pretends not to know what will happen in these upcoming four years. "Get over it" is a term for the frivolous creatures that don't know anything about the Four Freedoms speech by US President Franklin Roosevelt, "Get Over it" is what Trump asks you to do, and you repeat it like a little parrot. Brainless, no thinking involved. What's the real word here? DumbF*ck?

There's nothing funny about it. The fact that you consider such a a subject 'entertaining' speaks volumes about your high levels of 'deplorability.' No person with more than 1 gram of functioning brain-power would consider this human disgrace called 'Donald J. Trump" at the position of most powerful person on Earth an 'entertaining' subject. Whether you live in Australia or Tanzania, this guy will screw it up for all. That's no funny matter.

Congratulations. A toast to the newest moderator in town. .

''Classy'' statements from Trump's circle. Are these the people that you voted for? Congratulations you imbeciles. They're all your's now!

So let me understand this. Shifting and mangling the conversation worked for Trump, and you think we'll fall for it again? Sexual kink is on par with the purposeful termination of of close-to-extinct animal species? Are you guys dickless, ball-less? What is it? It's fine for your furor to "grab them by the pussy" and then you "blush" when you see a horny Democrat? Hypocrisy in plain site or just 'we-don't-give-a-F***-about-anything-as-long-as-we-clinch-to-power'? Anybody that takes away (any) life just for the sport of it does not deserve the label 'human' being. An "empty soul" or a "despicable monster" is the appropriate terms to describe individuals that behave and conduct themselves like Trump's sons..

Sure. And Thomas Jefferson was black slave owner and fathered children with his slaves. What is your point? On the contrary you either fail to see that it is imperative that we evolve as a civilization and that would be the only thing the prolongs our existence on this planet. Life --that of any species-- is not something you terminate for the sport of it. Such action is monstrous. Of course this disregard and disrespect for life, this arrogance shows in the way that less privileged people are treated. It's the root of racism, the root of slavery, the root of keeping the workforce underpayed, people without healthcare and education. You might not see the relationship between all of the above. I don't expect that you ever will.

More happy family moments. Disgusting human beings.

Not to leave out Trump's kind hearted family. Here's a shot with his two kids, Donald Jr. and Eric. Killing for fun! How disgusting of a creature is one to kill a living being for the fun of it?

One more thing that Trump can claim credit for. US Economy grew at strong 3.5 pct. annual rate last quarter http://www.phantis.com/2016/12/22/us-economy-grew-at-strong-3-5-pct-annual-rate-last-quarter/

U.S. manufacturing job openings at 2007 levels President-elect Donald Trump wants to "bring the jobs back." But there already are many job openings right here in America, even in manufacturing. The bigger challenge is filling them. In October, there were 322,000 job openings in manufacturing -- about the same level as in 2007. It has tripled since hitting a low of 99,000 during the recession in 2009. http://money.cnn.com/2016/12/21/news/economy/job-openings-manufacturing-trump/index.html What do you want to bet that Trump will try and take credit for this as well?

"Drain the swamp" was a refrain of Donald Trump during the presidential campaign, but Newt Gingrich says the president-elect "doesn't want to use it anymore" now that he's knee-deep in alligators.
