    "I like Trump because he's a straight shooter! He tells it like it is!"

    Build the wall!

    "Well, what he really meant was a symbolic wall made with a few rolls of barbed wire and some more cameras!"

    Obama should pardon Trump for the federal capital crime of treason, and direct the DOJ to prosecute him and numerous accomplices for espionage and multiple cases of campaign fraud.

    Just as a gesture of goodwill, he should throw in a pardon on the federal offense of transporting persons across state lines for the purpose of committing incest.

    Keep mocking, but I don't see his own voters expressing anger at Trump.

    Olbermann is really losing it.

    Best evidence: he suggests folks boycott UBER because of ties to Rudy Giuliani. LOL. Like urban liberals are going to boycott UBER. You might as well tell them they can't take pictures of their dinner.

    I can't take a fucking taxi without someone launching into an Uber infomercial.

    South Carolina elected a veritable vegetable to three or four terms in the Senate. So I guess anything is possible, even an African-American Republican.

    He hasn't even been inaugurated yet. But the quickest way for a POTUS to alienate his supporters is to ignore campaign promises.

    He promised to build a wall. Not a fence. Not install more security cameras. He promised a great big beautiful wall - that Mexico will pay for - at damn near every one of his campaign stops.

    He has to at least try. The liberal knock on Obama was always that he negotiated against himself. Why is Trump already softening on the wall? That doesn't make sense.

    No, that is what it literally was. For someone like myself, who likes to have a sense of fun, it was LIKE something a little more silly.

    You are morphing into Baron of the right.

    True, true.

    If his new starting point is barbed wire and cameras instead of a wall, then what's he willing to negotiate down to - the current status quo?
