So, tell me again what your mirror tells you after voting for that man

I agree with your comments about the hysteria and apocalypse type attitude. But that does not mean we shouldn't criticize Trump. I'd be doing it to Hillary too, if it was her. And I did it plenty to Obama. Being president doesn't mean we have to like them.

True. But a Congress at his disposal doesn't bode well. They're more or less in line with most things he claimed to do. I can only repeat - big caveat, he's not Hitler - but it would do well to take him at his word. The biggest stupidity is not taking any authoritarian politician at his word. They mean what they say and they will at least attempt to do what they said. If checks and balances are up to the job is about the only thing remaining to be seen.

History has told us as much.
