    There's no way Trump can be a healer when this is all said and done. Historically, the only way you get Americans to rally around their President is by picking an enemy overseas to take on a la Bush Jnr. I can see there being conflict in the next few years. Iran have always been on the neo-cons' list. Dark days ahead whoever they choose to pick a fight with.

    Pardons inbound for Clinton and her team

    Only a conviction/sentence can be pardoned.
    She is fooked if Trump goes through with his threats

    I won't.

    Your nonsense view that people only follow him by what the media say about him and that you are somehow the only smart person in the room to see the true Trump is hilarious in fact.

    Trump is very accessible you dont need a media filter to see the true trump

    One good thing is that the sexual assault allegations didn't change the election. You can't have a situation where the media find 3 women who decide to reveal they were sexually assaulted three weeks before elections (they never mentioned it for 30 years) and have it put out all over the media with no evidence. It very much felt like a conspiracy that was coreagraphed by the media are some rich powerful people. The timing was too convenient and if Trump lost the media and rich, powerful people would see how easy it is to fix an election.

    Ironic to see Megyn Kelly leading the Trump praise on Fox TV.

    Trump isn't a neo conservative. Every single neo conservative opposes him. Clinton was more likely to invade Iran.

    Anything on your privileged Irish view on health care? Have you even been to America? Do you know people who can't afford health care there? I do btw they have kids.

    What about Iran?

    Since you are choice choosing answers.

    Or the senate

    Why should Irish people care about health care in the US? What's more important is how America acts abroad.

    lol, you sound like a toddler stamping his feet.

    You will, you'll see. And seeing Trump's true character was never about smarts , and I would never claim to be the "smartest in the room", please.

    It's about heart.

    Trump has repeatedly trashed the deal Kerry agreed with Iran and pledged to scrap it. She would have had hawkish advisers I think, but I'm not convinced she would have listened to them; I don't think Trump will be interested in challenging his own hawks and will do whatever they want.

    Clinton is a neo conservative. She's a hawk. She wanted a war with Putin. She deposed ghadaffi.

    All American neo conservatives opposed trump. Including bush.

    Because I have friends there that need it and unlike your privileged Irish ass can't sit on the Internet and critisis a president that brought it to them and are now faced with worrying how they're kids will fare with trumps attack on the same health care


    Some people can't see how utterly lucky they are in ireland I suppose.

    Sexual assault allegations? Does this refer to Trump? He pretty much admitted sexual assault on the tape!

    A very dark day for the US, especially if you are LGBT, a minority or a woman. Plus, the vast, industrialised and largely unaccountable American national security and intelligence apparatus is now in the hands of a very unstable character......

    ......but the people of Clare seem happy enough with their golf course!

    You stated Clinton is likely to invade Iran and think she wants a war with Russia.

    3 weeks ago I was at the Texas White House, where LBJ spent about 25% of his presidency.
    The house is kept the way it was when he was president with all the Johnson's possessions present - also got to go on his air force one plane.
    Anyway, he had three TV together in several rooms so he could watch all the three main TV channels that showed the news.
    We were told he would ring up the news channel to complain if they gave him bad coverage.
    He had telephones everywhere including one on the underside of the dining table.
    His bedroom was like an office, it has the bed he died in, the three tvs , a telephone fixed to the ebd and a massage table.

    I suspect Trump like LBJ will be ringing up news channels...

    Trump wants to withdraw American troops from the world. He didn't run on any kind of imperialist campaign. He's not sabre rattling.

    The organs of neo conservatism - weekly standard, wash post, wsj were pro Clinton.

    They wanted a continuation of endless wars. Trump is an isolationist.

    You left out insatiable vindictive.

    You only have to look at what he did to a farmer in Scotland.

    A man of that power and he's concerned about a farmer in Scotland.

    Vindictive little individual.
