[POLL] United States Presidential Elections 2016

[TRGTspecialist]

His speech is sure different from the usual ones you get. Fair play to him.

Like his election day victory speech, his eyes being totally glued to the autocue probably has something to do with it!

Forget the assassination stuff, the person actually pointing a gun at him is probably Mike Pence.........dare he try and go off script this time

 

[Dennisch]

WARTALK YEAH!

Trump: "We wont impose..."

Rest of the world: "loooooool"

 

[SlipZtrEm]

WARTALK YEAH!

Ah, so I'm not the only one getting that vibe?

This is all... very strange. He's changed gears again to a more inclusive tone, but that was some aggressive rhetoric.

Of course he ends on his tagline: Trump is a product as much as he is a person.

Is it just me or does anyone else get this feeling to turn into Snake and start crawling behind a huge row of solders?

snake? snake! snaaaaake!

 

[mister dog]

Wartalk? With whom?

The wartalk was for the eradication of Radical Islamic terrorism.
It was a speech as American as it possibly could be. Patriotic.

And now the Rabbi, I wonder if they'll have an Imam...

 

[Touring Mars]

Wartalk? With whom?

 

[SlipZtrEm]

If I close my eyes, this is almost a pitch-perfect Professor Frink impersonator.

 

[Robin]

He was really big on the protectionism, other governments will be very worried now hearing this speech about the potential for trade and global cooperation.

 

[UKMikey]

Not just the Americans...

Bojo is a native New Yorker by birth.

Wait - did I just hear Senator Roy Blunt head of the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Activities describe the US unequivocally as a "democracy" during the opening speech of the Inauguration ceremony? Has he been paying no attention to GTPlanet's "Presidential Election" Forum thread? Sad!

Did you also hear people praying to and thanking God for such a wonderful country and asking for His future blessings? Must both be true I guess.

Must both be in dispute I guess. Nobody seems to know for sure either way.

 

[TRGTspecialist]

A whole 5 minutes have passed and still no tweets? Bah!

 

[Johnnypenso]

Jackie Evancho is up....she's gonna kill it!

 

[mister dog]

Luckily being more protective when it comes to imports, doesn't necessarily mean he'll do that by bombing Peking

 

[DK]

The state broadcaster (RTE) just cut to a break on their live coverage. They just had to pick the bunkhouse-iest guitar chords to play during the transition to the ads.

Marine One looks sweet just sitting there on the road.

Bob Dole.

Well that went well

The old guy you asked about.

 

[Robin]

Bob Dole.

Thanks, Yeah I edited the post because I found out on Twitter.

Reminds me of the Family Guy joke!

 

[mister dog]

And it started...





Cue bikers for Trump

I've been watching this one carefully:

http://thehill.com/policy/technology/315091-patent-office-head-to-keep-spot-in-trump-administration


The patent office director survives the transition between Barack O-figgin-Bama to Donald OMG Trump! Of all the transitions to survive, that's a beast! She did it though, and I think it's a testament to her work and to both Obama and Trump. To Obama for picking someone who would do a great job at a fairly non-partisan office, and to Trump for seeing past politics and keeping some continuity where a good job was done.

 

[ryzno]

Bye bye Obama!!!!!

 

[Robin]

Bye bye Obama!!!!!

Surprised Trump didn't give him a wave

 

[Famine]

Bye bye Obama!!!!!

Well, I think that marks the end of the 2016 United States Presidential Elections. Back to business as usual in the America thread.
