Whether or not you believe a politician when he panders, it’s wise to believe him when he doesn’t. Donald Trump may govern effectively or incompetently, as a moderate or a conservative or something in between, his administration will be closer to a king’s court than any presidency before it — and it will be very, very good to be the king.

Now now Sdgla, let all take a half a nano second to feel the letfy loon's pain. I know you can do it. After all as Ann Coulter sayes the official *expiration* of gloating of the stupidity of letfty loon losers is three years. OK I am still trying to find a nano second and ...LOL it's not easy. By Wesley Pruden - The Washington Times - Thursday, December 1, 2016 ANALYSIS/OPINION: Life is not fair to losers, or the critics of Donald Trump, and the way he won the presidency. He just won’t stand still and give the rotten eggs a chance to hit their mark. The Donald is conducting his transition to the White House in his own way, taking his time, choosing his Cabinet carefully, and rationing misery to his detractors. His critics, particularly in the know-it-all media, are having trouble with a transition of their own. Almost a month has passed since the election, and the critics, who are supposed to be working their way through the five stages of grief — denial, anger, bargaining, depression and finally acceptance — are stuck in denial. They should be angry by now, and learning how to bargain with their emotions. Some of the critics of press and tube are still in denial — wallowing in it, if plain truth be told — consoling themselves that after all, Hillary won the popular vote, and if the world were an ordered place she would be measuring the White House windows for new curtains. But if all the plain truth be told, she would rather be returning to the White House and let the Donald have the consolation of the popular vote. Others have grumbled that he was taking too long to fill out his Cabinet, until someone looked back to the Obama administration — most journalists cultivate a memory fit for a fruit fly — and discovered that not only was the Donald not loafing but was in fact a little ahead of usual. The Democrats don’t like his Cabinet choices; fair enough, if Hillary Clinton was the president-elect the Republicans wouldn’t like hers, either. Opposing is what the opposition is entitled to do. But now that he has made some choices they don’t like his Cabinet of millionaires. But it’s hard to find men and women of accomplishment in homeless shelters. “I’ve had several jobs in my lifetime,” Phil Gramm, the former senator from Texas once said, “but I’ve never worked for a poor man.” The stock market, which was supposed to have taken permanent residence in a basement apartment, has surged since election day and investors are expecting lower taxes and less regulation from heavy-handed government bureaucrats to sustain a boom. A survey of small-business owners, the chief source of the nation’s jobs, shows them optimistic for the first time in months. The National Federation of Independent Business finds that small-business firms are enthusiastically preparing for better times ahead.
