He just doesn't like us. At all.

Donald Trump is proving it, moment by moment. Just look at those he has already appointed. Not one of them is going to work for our benefit ("our" meaning all of the citizens of this country). Instead of putting together a team that will promote the common good, he seems to be assembling a squad designed to exert revenge. Yeah, we keep hearing to give him time, yada yada, he might yet appoint someone who isn't out to gut us. But I'm not holding my breath. Donald Trump really does not like us.

He says what he thinks we want to hear and goes right on doing what HE wants.

We Democrats knew that long ago.........now the rest of the country gets to find out, and by doing it the hard way.

And no one covered it- not even to point out it was a gaffe. Or Freudian slip.

is that anyone really thought otherwise. I really don't care who he picks for what job, I won't really like any of them, nor did I ever expect that I would.

The number of people that a Trump presidency is really going to benefit is tiny.

The vast majority of the people who voted for him just haven't figured that out yet.

As for the "give him time" nonsense, it's just that...nonsense. If he hasn't turned into a human being by now, more time won't help.

Trump became prez to spite Obama
Now he is picking the polar opposites for each position to spite the the majority of America he knows hates him
