My all time favorite video about Trump winning the e******n is the one of Rachel Maddow telling viewers that this is real, you're not dreaming, and then cutting away to Hillary supporters wailing, beside themselves all played to the music and haunting words of Simon and Garfunkel's Sounds of Silence in the background. Priceless!!!
It's just desserts for we constitutional conservatives who watched in horror where our country was being taken during the previous 8 years.
While reviewing some of the reactions to Trump's e******n is amusing and gives us reason to bask a bit, it is so sad to see the gloom on the faces of those who are supposed to be objective. After 2 years we can see where the campaign to remove Trump started and is continuing today. Does anyone still doubt the bias in the media and the liberal influence of Hollywood? It is clear that the left will never accept any decision not aligned with their thinking and will stop at nothing in their effort to overturn Trump's e******n.

How is that different then the MAGA Provocateurs indifference or intolerance .... there is always a middle ground until there isn't...
When ever McConnell or Paul Ryan smile, it comes off as smug to me, smug indifference. Or as some of my friends refer to it as a "s**t eating grin"....
Their reactions or losers are for those that this man and the Tangerine Dream Team are truly going to destroy opportunity, and they have...fair business practices be damned...

I'm not quite following your thinking here. I'm not talking about a smile, however you might interpret it, I'm referring to our "news" people who are supposed to be objective but are anything but objective. McConnell and Ryan should be enthused when their side wins. 92% of the media v**e Democrat - and speak Democrat when they are allegedly bringing us the unbiased "news". You may view that and think that is what we need but there are millions of Americans out there who are sick and tired of listening to that crap. Hollywood? Yeh, who cares. I can watch them moan and gleefully rub my hands together, but the news media? Then I get upset.

...so when is the opposing side happy about losing anything whether it's politics or pinochle...
I think you're pulling 92% out of your own "backside". I'm probably taking a big leap here: but you don't listen the MSM or Democrats, you listen to critiques of the MSM or Democrats. Name 10 friends of yours who are Democrats.

Here's one take from the Washington Post, a known liberal site.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/.../just-7-percent-of-journalists-are-republicans...
One figure I read was actually 93%. You are wrong about who I listen to. I will admit that I usually listen to Fox, but some time ago, I decided to shop around to see if this stuff about media bias was really true so I started checking out CNN (Allison Camorota, Don Lemon, Brian Stelter) and MSNBC (Rachel Maddow et al)and I defy anyone to watch them for a week or so after a contentious event and come up with a different opinion. If you would like a little more in-depth view, there are a few books by Bernard Goldberg, an old time media guy on why it is what it is. Also one called "Left Turn" by Tim Groseclose. I don't know how I would prove it, but I do have friends who are Democrats. To name a few without naming names, 2 sisters-in -law, a brother-in-law, my younger brother, and several non-relatives. I do try to listen to both sides. I won't say I'm not colored by my beliefs, everyone is, but it's possible to make an objective decision if one wants to be fair. I also won't say that Tucker Carlson or Sean Hannity aren't biased, but they don't claim to be objective journalists bringing us the unbiased news. One of the big areas of bias that really ticks me off is when CNN or MSNBC will not report on something that is favorable to Trump and affects the Country. They simply ignore it. I get my news from a varied array of sources and I KNOW what they do and what they don't do. A large % of this Country gets their opinions by watching this filtered out BS of which I speak. What else would one expect their opinions to be. Hope you have a good week SW. Good watching!

...so why would you quote a known liberal source? Simple: it confirmed your bias.
I'm having a great week
All news sources have learned the art of marketing, no news source gets a pass.

A blind hog finds an acorn once in a while, so even a liberal source might be right occasionally. Hope your week finishes out the same way.
