I actually never voted for him (or Hillary). Yes, for the longest time,
I liked him as something different to shake up DC. Towards the end
though I caught all the religious-right aspects. Overturning Roe v Wade?
yikes! Then his pick for VP. Yikes again. The best we can hope for is
that Trump stays healthy. Heaven help us if Pence ever takes over. He
will NOT get my vote when he runs.

On a lighter note, here's one thing that I find amusing...
Funny how the two world leaders with the worst haircuts are the ones
threatening with nucs. Both have silly haircuts and they are the ones
that are starting to scare the world.

Notice how Gary's enthusiasm for the Trumpster has dropped since that
loonie won the election. I imagine that the US political scene will
likely end up something like that of post war Germany where no one would
admit that they had been fans of Hitler.

He was a wild card and was shaking up the comfortable DC lifers.

I didn't learn about his super religious attitude until near the end.
For that reason, I didn't vote for him. I'm not backing out of
what I wrote for months. I did support him. Just not on election day.

BS Dave. I freely admit that I supported him right up until almost the
end....just not on the day that it counted. And I'm not backing out. As
far as you Canadians are concerned, just think that I voted for him.

If the Democrats can come up with a decent candidate in 2020, they might
just win.

If you are saying that what turned you off was his super religious
attitude, then you haven't been paying any attention at all -- either
before or after the election. It means that you really don't know
anything about trump or Hillary Clinton and you have formed very
casual and wrong opinions about both of them from some overheard,
off-chance comment someone made. There just isn't any way that you
could have been listening and thinking. I would have respected your
vote for trump if you had.

I had the impression trump is not religious but wanted the bible belt
on his side and cemented the deal with pence.

I don't think he cares about religion but wanted those who do to vote
for him. I don't believe for a second he cares about anyone else
other than himself and his family - he will make the lifers mad but he
won't change anything unless it directly benefits him.

Just think of all the small time contractors he has ripped off over
the years, does that seem like a person who cares about people eking
out their living?

What is funny is, Lewis Black already commented on this, concerning
the Tea Party.

Trump hasn't started a Holocaust yet, so that comparison is unfair, no
matter what an idiot Trump is.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Trump's very religious.
Having Pence as a running mate was probably just a strategic move.

Hitler and the Nazis had been around for a few years before they started
rounding up the Jews and other targets of their genocidal activities.
Trump has only been in office for 100 days.

I'm not sure about that one. Each ferret has their preferences. Mia
basically only liked her ferret food mix. 3 brands combined then ground
to powder to make the "warm gravy meal." It wasn't just food for her -
she loved the bonding time. I would hold her and she always put her left
foot on my finger then I spoon fed her. She loved that.

She enjoyed a few occasional treats but not so much as the others.

Each ferret is different as night and day as far as what they liked to
do and what they liked to eat. As far as snacks, as I said before, I
always offered them to help themselves to whatever I was eating.

Yep, they would eat right off my plate or sandwich. I didn't mind. We
all shared germs here anyway. hehheh
