Donald Trump will remain an exec producer on NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice,” which is returning Jan. 2 after a two-year hiatus with new host Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Good to know what his priorities are.

Oh yeah, devil horns, totally not a woman laying down with her knees up. Right?

And it's more like cat ears than devil horns.

Yeah, I'd heard the devil horns thing. I think it's a stretch. As I said, Republicans are becoming liberals looking for ways to be offended.

Secondly, Trump HATES that all these businesses are leaving and we have trade deficits with all these other countries.
We all should...shouldn't we? This is inspiring a new thread...
And unfortunately the Republicans are proving to be just as easily emotionally manipulated as the left.
That's why working together is the only solution. Hell, most of us are of a similar political mindset, yet we all still help one another see different views of an issue. Imagine working with someone who has an opposite viewpoint. The problem is the emotional link many people apply to issues.

Nah, that's a bullshit complaint. Being an executive producer doesn't mean you're doing any work at all. Mark Burnett is an executive producer on a million reality shows. Do you really believe he works on them all? If I filmed an independent movie this winter and you chipped in 30% of the budget I'd give you an executive producer credit even though you, literally, only gave us some cash.

Reprieve.
Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani pulled out of the secretary of state sweepstakes late last month, President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team said Friday, as Trump has widened his search to select the nation’s top diplomat.
Woohoo.
But ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson has emerged as the leading contender, according to two transition aides.

Dumb-ass Drumpf continues to "drain the swamp" and shit in it right after. But don't take it from me, take it from noted pinko-commie left wing pundit/nutjob, John McCain.
"I don't know what Mr. Tillerson's relationship with Vladimir Putin was," McCain said, "but I'll tell you it is a matter of concern to me."
...
In 2011, Tillerson signed an agreement with Russia allowing ExxonMobil to drill in the Arctic Ocean valued by as much as $300 billion, The Telegraph reports.
No conflict of interest here.

Drumpf has nothing better to do but pick twitter fights with magazine editors.
Although Trump didn't refer to it, the magazine's website on Tuesday published a rough review of Trump Grill, located in the lobby of Trump Tower in Manhattan. The article, by politics and media writer Tina Nguyen, was headlined, "Trump Grill could be the worst restaurant in America."

But let's be fair, that headline doesn't get written without him being elected as president as a republican. I mean, she uses his political campaign as insults in the article. That wasn't a review, it was an attack.

Speaking of attacks from the "not at all biased" MSM, a "respected journalist" at Politico, literally, tweets that Trump must be fucking his daughter, and Vanity Fair can't wait to hire her.

I'm just having a vision of ISIS trolling Drumpf, actually getting a rise out of him, and us sending in troops to fuck knows where in the Middle East about a week later. That strategy's been working out so well for the past fifty years.

Obama has had SEALS everywhere. The MSM doesn't find it interesting. They will soon, though.

Yeah, but they aren't there to set up shop, stage another campaign, and open another base in a vast area whose main claims to fame are, in order: (i) religious extremism, (ii) constant warfare due to animosities started centuries ago, (iii) big-ass deserts, (iv) at best a medieval view of human rights in most regions, (v) no bankable exports except liquid dead dinosaur, (vi) western countries pissing away resources in the hopes that they can overcome i - iv to get to v.

Was anyone actually voting for him because they thought he'd make things "great again" or was it mostly spite for the alternative?

I voted Johnson to spite the alternatives.

According to my insane right wing uncles, Trump will make America great again...

He could be. The same way I could theoretically go into a few Vegas casinos one day, pull the biggest Mr. Papagiorgio run in history, and walk out with a quarter million worth of expensive cars. He could be. The same way space aliens could show up tomorrow with the good versions of Star Wars Eps I-III that Lucas probably tried to dispose of in the interstellar void. I didn't know there were that many insane gamblers in this country.

These are the people that worry me. He's not even sworn in yet, and he's more or less been openly admitting he played his supporters. Wasn't this how the Penguin was supposed to win office in Batman Returns?
