Consumer Confidence Soars in the Polls...
Americans confident that Trump can lead us to prosperity? Certainly seems that way, as the Stock Market rises, the dollar strengthens, and consumer confidence rises to levels not seen since Bush was President. I guess some people think that Trump will "Make America Great Again"

"The Trump Effect"
More people believe in a profitable, working, prosperous and low taxed America.
More poetically, the Trump bump.
All During the Obama years we were told By the Fake-Media that this economy is on freaking fire.
So match the best year as far as GDP with the President.
A, Obama
B, Bush
1, 3.8%
2, 2.6%
Thanksgiving Proclamation
Issued by President George Washington, at the request of Congress, on October 3, 1789
By the President of the United States of America, a Proclamation.
Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and—Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me “to recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness:”
Now, therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the 26th day of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies and the favor, able interpositions of His providence in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquillity, union, and plenty which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now lately instituted; for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and, in general, for all the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us.
And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations, and beseech Him to pardon our national and other trangressions; to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness to us), and to bless them with good governments, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and, generally, to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to be best.
Given under my hand at the City of New York the third day of October in the year of our Lord 1789.
I am thankful for a Trump WIN and the securing of the USSC for the next 50 years.
Clinton's soars to a lead in the popular vote surpasses 2 million
A half-dozen electors, those who will formally cast votes for Trump and Clinton on Dec. 19, are pushing to block Trump from winning a majority of votes.
Hillary Clinton’s lead over Donald Trump in the popular vote surpassed 2 million Wednesday morning, according to Dave Wasserman of the nonpartisan Cook Political Report.
Clinton has garnered 64,223,958 votes, compared to Trump’s 62,206,395 votes.
HB I see your puking again, what your baby diaper full.
Anyone else seen Hillary and her transition team?
There are still 1.5 million absentee votes are uncounted in California. That will probably push it to 2.5 million. That means 2.5 million American voters were not counted because of our obsolete electoral college.
One of the reasons Nyuk from Soars won't come back here, is because we have to scroll past dozens of worthless and stupid posts by k'putz.
HyperBolic, you do know how small you look, Right?
HyperBolic, let me say She won the Popular Vote by 4 Million.
so what.
That means 2.5 million California voters were not counted because of our brilliant electoral college.
I have to agree... California voters don't matter! They should just start their own Country and play by whatever rules they want!
HB Contribute CASH to your cause
Calexit ?
GO , rejoin Mexico
It's hard to understand HB's reasoning. Without California's 55 electoral votes, Hillary Clinton would never have a chance.
Trying to us reason with a person who can't reason, it's like giving medicine to a dead man.
My reasoning is simple. When the 1.5 million absentee votes are counted, the Clinton lead will approach 2.5 million Americans who's votes don't matter.
Brain dead Menstra.
Obama soars at the polls to 57%, higher than Saint Ronald of the Reagan had at the same time in his administration. If he could run again, he would have won in a landslide.
HB, lets put an end to this now two week old meme, you win, 4 million more Americans voted for the WINNER of the 2016 Presidential Election.
Obama is better then GOD.
Yes, Obama could never be defeated.
Now, take a shot at the real world.
C.H. Truth said... They (CA) should just start their own Country and play by whatever rules they want!
You think all the rural counties will be happy to let LA choose the President for the Republic of California? I'd say not. They'll want some sort of geographically allocated voting. HB still won't see his "popular vote President" vision in action.
For tax year 2016, the personal exemption amount is $4,050 " IRS
For tax year 2017, The personal Exemption amount under the Trump plan:
"Replace the current personal exemption ($4,050 per individual and dependent) and the current standard deduction ($6,300 for single filers and $12,600 for married filers) with a standard deduction of $30,000 for married filers and $15,000 for single filers."
But, every Hillary voter will because they hate Trump and Tax cuts, they will continue to take the small personal exemption.
Cutting a separate check to the US Treasury for the difference.
WP, The Map of the Counties that would be shorted under the HB NEW CA Banana Diaper Wearing Republic.
President for the Republic of California?
Maybe Hillary should hit that "Reset Button" on this election nightmare , you know the one she used on Russia.
Besides the three million illegal votes cast, jc popular vote totals meant anything, Trump would have campaigned in CA, NY and IL. The vote results would be different.
But HB wasn't talking about the popular vote before the election he was talking about CLINTON IN A LANDSLIDE OF 306 ELECTORAL VOTES.
Where did those votes go HB?
Are you really so DEVASTATED that you are reduced to whining about California's slow vote count?
Just what did happen to Clinton's big electoral vote victory HB?
CLINTON IN A LANDSLIDE!!!!
KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE!!!!
Talk about brain-dead reasoning.
LOL
The Fly over states took away the results of an election and awarded it to the least qualified candidate in the history of the United States.

If the electoral college delegates were distributed by the vote of each state, not the number of congress districts and Senate votes, California would have 199 electoral votes. It was 140 years ago whee this kind a miss balance of this size, resulted in the electoral college awarding the Presidency to Rutheford B. Hayes over Samuel Tilden. Tilden got 4.288,191 votes, Hayes got 4,033,497 votes for a difference of 254,694 votes. That was a 6.3% difference, 254,694/4,033,497. Clinton got 3.25% more votes, but trailed in the electoral college and Donald J. Trump will be sworn in on January 20, 2017, in my opinion, something we will never be able to explain to our children and grand children.
Is this is fair to the voters in the country? I think not.
wp said.
HB still won't see his "popular vote President" vision in action..
Perhaps, but to say not ever?
I don't want it to go this way, but let's say that Trump ends up being a total failure as President an amendment might just gain traction. But that is unlikely, at least I hope not because our country would suffer.
Let's be frank and honest about a few things.
First, the EC IS undemocratic and it needs to be changed.
Second, that fact has nothing to do with Clinton and this election, and her California votes are meaningless except in California.
Third, rehashing old Clinton talking points, such as "most unqualified President in history" is going to get old. If Clinton had won, SHE would have been "the most unqualified President in history." It's time to move on.
Is this is fair to the voters in the country? I think not.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
who are you trying to fool? you don't give a shit about fairness. if this situation was exactly reversed and clinton was president elect while trump was up by 2M popular votes you'd be crowing about her victory and telling trump supporters to deal with it.
I don't want it to go this way, but let's say that Trump ends up being a total failure " Liar
That means 2.5 million American voters were not counted because of our obsolete electoral college."
I would rather say there votes were ignored and the real winner is still sitting home. I guess the fact that the minority being protected is the real danger here, again. Oh well, there will be plenty of time to see how competent he really is and will save judgement as long as loretta gave obama. LOL

i'm sure you have an impeccable link for that BS. LOL!!!!!!!
For the idiots who will believe anything

Too stupid even for you, ballz. LOLOLOL
This thread was about the good news that is being caused by "The Trump Effect"
So let's get to work making America Great Again.
Odopie, the minority in this case would be those that voter FOR Trump, given your debating point is that Hillary is the REAL WINNER.
" I guess the fact that the minority being protected is the real danger here, again."
After Reading the post by Jane and his ugly sister HB, they have made it clear, they are pissed off at losing to Trump.
They also made it clear that by any means they see the Electoral College vote in a few days going to Hillary.
Will they get there way?
They have to get enough electors to move the needle from the current landslide Trump win of 306, and move states to the Hillary and get her to 270.
But which states?
Come on lets have some more fun at the expense of the Diaper Pin Wearing bed wetting leftist.
the Electoral College vote in a few days going to Hillary.
No that's not going to happen. For one thing, it would spark civil unrest orders of magnitude greater than we've seen already. For another, since it's more likely that no candidate would reach 270 and it would go to the House, what would be the point for Clinton?
WP, I never had any idea how leftist here that post would go so off the rails .
She had the money
She had the FakeMedia aka Main Stream Media
She had the Wall
She had the ground game
The only thing she lacked was voters in enough states to WIN, now the Leftist like HB and Jane his ugly prom date, want to have the "faithless voter" move the election to a Hillary WIN.
I agree with you it is not going to happen, not on the scale that the Three Liberal Stooges would need to shift the devastating loss to a Hillary WIN.
I do want to see from the Three Liberal Stooges which states they believe they can flip????
Wilbur Ross as Commerce Secretary
What a fine pick .
Even trying to overturn the election would be a colossal blunder even by DNC standards. Try it and fail, and what happens to the DNC then? Succeed and you really do have a "not my President" situation and what's the plan, quell dissent with the National Guard? There is no "win" in that scenario.
the DNC had better start paying attention to what REALLY matters. they are exactly one state legislature away from not being able to block any new constitutional amendments.
They are not trying, the are actively going for it.
Hillary has 10's of millions of dollars poured into this new strategy, their is no way she is just going to go away.
HER believes like her supporters, they won, so they deserve to serve.
Trump won 3084 out of 3141 counties. That is more than fly over and is more than stealing an election.
Clinton won a lot more counties than 57. You keep falling for fake news, Balls.
Falling for fake news? Like all trump voters are racists, his nominees are Nazis, and he wants to lock up all Muslims?
No that's libs falling for that fake news.
Should I call it repeating a lie on your part then? You've posted this falsehood many times now.
Clinton won 27 counties in Texas, 13 in Wisconsin, and 7 in Ohio. And lost all three of those states. She also won 14 in New Mexico. That's 61 counties in just four states.
Clinton won in about 500 counties. Trump won in a few thousand counties.
Clinton's margin of victory in the California popular vote is larger than Trump's margin of victory in the rest of the country. Trump needs to shape some policies that will benefit California. The Democrats need an agenda that is more attractive to US citizens that don't live in California.
the DNC had better start paying attention to what REALLY matters. they are exactly one state legislature away from not being able to block any new constitutional amendments.
And to ensure that the House will have a permanent Republican majority for the foreseeable future.
Democrats ought to thank their lucky stars (they don't believe in God), for the 17th amendment.
Otherwise, they would be a permanent, filibuster irrelevant minority in the senate.
The point is the Democrats haven't learned a damn thing from the election.
The right lesson is that the Democrat are representing an increasing narrow section of the population.
They are in fact in danger of being a regional party that has overwhelming strength in the northeast and west coast but none anywhere else in the country.
Without such broad appeal you will continue to see electoral victories such as this and increasingly Republican dominance in the house and especially the senate.
But instead of learning that lesson they are whining about the electoral college denying them their "rightful victory".
The presidential election is not a national election. It is a 50 state (and one district) election. That is never going to change.
And if the Democrats don't learn that lesson and start broadening their appeal their will continue to be Republican victories for the foreseeable future.
BTW, the Republicans are now the party of the working class.
Which includes whites, blacks, people of asian and latin descent.
So much for demographics is destiny. The divisive identity politics killed the Democratic party as we know it.
However the corpse of the Democratic party has just doubled down on stupid.
The numbers are different but the point remains the same. Unlike the fake stories I referred to. They are jyst plain false and slanderous.
