    I think it goes without saying most people on this site who seem to care about politics are mostly left leaning and pro central government authority. Has trumps win made you question overreaching power and authority of a central gov yet? There was so many calls of support for obama to say fuck congress and act on his own with full authority and say fuck u to the naysayers about rule of law. Would the same be said of trump? Do people see their error for thinking such things? Or they still just all about that my god is better than your god bullshit because that is all a president and central authority figure is. Projections of desire upon people to be things they will and never can be.

    I have this feeling that most of peoples frustration and venting about it is a realization they don't want to accept. that this is and always has been the destination and now seeing it like a kid who was swindled at trump university and is pissed and wants a mulligan.

    this is the democracy preached by many on the left. that mob rule surpasses rule of law. people who preach that rhetoric only preach it thinking its their man who will win. people who preach rule of law and small gov knows it will not always be their man that wins. everyone upset about trump should hang out in my neighborhood

    but u know all of this already so im just being capt wow and stating the obvious right

    • sorry, that should have said, I rarely know where to start with a reply to your questions.lowimpakt
    • Trump's shitshow should never be accepted and should flattened at every opportunity. Sustained protest is the valid reaction - rightwing heels can get fucked.face_melter
    • I've said it before and will say it again - the spirit of '68 needs to be revived. Push people too far and they will push back.face_melter
    • Blind acceptance is a sign of stupid fools who stand in line.face_melter
    • The irony is he's planning to impose more authority as govt, so the argument for "less" govt is just naive and stupid. I am tired of it, no one can do it.formed
    • Even things that are not "govt" are govt contracts, which is arguable worse and more corrupt/less efficient. It's a house of cards and shell game.formed
