January 20, 2017 will be a beautiful, beautiful day! The best part is the butt-hurt crowd kicking and stomping. Maybe they could hold their breath? Set themselves on fire?? They've unsuccessfully tried sooo many childish tactics: Threats; Intimidation; Bullying; Boycotting; Whining Face it. It's over You lost. You get no trophy. Mr. Donald Trump IS your President. You're free to leave. TRUMP NATION RULES!

"You are free to leave" is exactly the same sentiment that has been expressed numerous times to all those on here who hate Mr. Obama and refused to accept him as their President.
Mr. Trump will be our President this time tomorrow. That doesn't change the fact that the guy is a raving buffoon. It doesn't change the fact that he is unqualified and unprepared for the position. It doesn't change the fact that "Trump" nation is a decided minority of the US population and appears to be shrinking on an almost daily basis. It doesn't change the fact that many of the cabinet nominees have little to no knowledge about or experience related to the post they have been slotted to fill. It doesn't change the fact the transition team has told all the people holding non-Senate confirmable positions to leave, yet the team has appointed no one to fill those positions. So how, exactly, does "Trump nation rule" when no one in the positions of authority and the cabinet nominees disagree with the President elect on almost every nationally critical topic?
What is our foreign policy come Friday afternoon? Who is in position to make decisions should another nation decide to tweak us when our leadership roles are in a naturally weakened state that has been further degraded by the incompetence of our Twitterer in Chief?
Who is in charge of domestic policy? What is our domestic policy? "Build a wall"?

This last question is fair - it's almost impossible to have any clue what a government run by Trump will be like, since he's not had one millisecond of authority yet.
However, the nation will be largely unchanged. Probably more prosperous, with a higher credit rating, a larger workforce participation rate, a higher rate of inflation, a challenge to other world leaders, a happier military and immigration protection force, more hope for many, huge anger by most everyone because he will inevitably piss off everyone at one point or another, etc. But, no one can know.
As for foreign policy, it will be Trump. We're in a naturally weakened state every 4-8 years, so this is nothing new. Obama was challenged, and failed miserably.
As for domestic policy, it will be Trump. If you're asking if "build a wall" is a small part of domestic policy, it seems pretty clear that it is. You should read up some more, that's not really a hard question to find an answer to.
Keep sipping that Kool Aid and watching MSNBC in your safe room. President Trump found a way to win and did so VERY successfully. He's building a strong qualified team that WILL change the flow of this country's dismal direction. A much needed change. As a nation, we've digressed and become more divided over the past 8 years. Thugs have taken over our cities. Law and order ceases to exist. Internationally we're weak. Obuma Care was a disaster. Hey, do you hear that? The fat lady is singing. President Trump is already making America Great Again. TRUMP NATION RULES! (Do you miss Hillary? Maybe you should consider donating to the Clinton Foundation.)

Anyone here who refused to acknowledge him as their President? Names? I never liked his policies, and wish that micro-racial incidents were not his weakness like Twitter is Trumps. Between that, his utter inability to consider compromise (except with Big Pharma and Big Insurance, they got just what they wanted in return for support) on the ACA and his "Tough on Mud Huts, soft like Fluffernutter on anyone with any real power" foreign policy, There was very little I liked about his leadership. But for good or ill, he was my President. I don't recall the level of hysteria we are seeing now outside of the really far right, while it seems this frenzy is escalating every day.

to be fair the same thing was said about Obama,
However Obama had ZERO Executive Experience, and had not managed so much as a lemon aid stand
However Trump has DECADES of Executive Experience - Successes and Failures

Right, but to be even more fair, the folks who said that about Obama didn't use it to question his legitimacy to hold the office, we had an election people voted, and we tried a community organizer on for size.

Yes, Trump tapped it. He found the vein. Extraordinary. My hub has always said we need a prez that is a biz man. Well, we got one. Hopefully, he will be great.
