Trump was democratically elected by the American people as the President of the United States of America. So why all these demonstrations them!!!!!! So why there is an election if its results is going to be undermined? He said what he stands for clearly and he was elected so any demonstration is against the democracy. People would like the incoming administration to know that although they have lost the election, they will not sit quietly and accept the Republican agenda without complaint. They'd like the Republicans in the House, the Senate, and the White House to know that incoming efforts to eliminate Planned Parenthood, reduce healthcare access, battle civil rights, gut public schools, and make life worse for workers aren't going to pass without criticism. -k Quote (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ Friendly forum facilitator! ┬──┬◡ﾉ(° -°ﾉ)

Topaz Posted January 22, 2017 Report Posted January 22, 2017 Definitely fear is running this and I think they should all chill until they actually see what he does. I saw Whoopi (the view) telling the crowd they can win this just like the people got the US to withdrawal from Nam. I also, came across online of a dating for Canadians and Americans , who want to leave the US, really? On the View, Whoopi told Sean Hannity, that he thought they were a bunch of whiners , come on the show and talk about....Sean has said, he'll come on but Joy has to except the one-way ticket out of the US,she said she would move, at one time...I hope he does, like to see this....he said he go BUT will they let him on the show??

I fully expect an expose' from the CBC on how the US border is being heavy handed, with breathless 'reporters' getting said protesters to bitch and moan. And sure enough, the CBC tracked down some dolts who were refused entry at the border after they said they were going to join the women's protest march. Quote

This is what makes this thing so pathetic - that you might actually be right on this. I expected more from Canadians, I expected that they would keep some small perspective and understand that Trump is not our leader and the US is not our country. Some Canadians are talking about their right to freely travel to another country and are offended that they were questioned at the border - good fkng grief!

Maybe it's so over the top because they already threw tantrums and whined like children during the Bush administration, and now they have to raise the bar because of Trump. They hate Trump more than Bush...before he ever took office. After all, Trump defeated their champion....Clinton..which raises a bunch of other cross border, wannabe questions.

Those track-records and agendas are the reasons the Republicans have selected them for those portfolios. You think people should just ignore their histories and their agendas and pretend we don't know what they were appointed to do yet? 2 hours ago, Hal 9000 said: Let's face it, you people would be complaining no matter who was chosen for any position. Not true. I don't think I've heard anybody complaining about General Mattis, for example. I don't think people have been attacking Rick Perry, aside from pointing out the irony of him being appointed to lead the department he famously forgot, then remembered, that he wanted to eliminate. 2 hours ago, Hal 9000 said: P.S - I thought the whole election process was good TV and all, but you liberals who actually live in Canada have taken this thing way too far.
