Any war related stock to look into?

Lockheed Martin is doing well for itself as of late.

Might be a good idea.

B- bu- but Trump is anti establishment!!!1111
Trump supporters' reactions to realizing they've been conned is going to be almost as good as Hillary supporters' reactions to Trump winning the election.

I think we should start meming Rand into office at this point...

If they realize they've been conned, I'll give them a great deal of credit. Unfortunately I think they'll only do what progressives did after Obama was elected and steadfastly refuse to criticize him despite the obvious flips.

I'm holding out hope that floating names like Bolton, Giuliani, Gingrich, Christie, Palin, and Carson is just an attempt to set expectations so low that the people he does pick are good by way of comparison, but after Priebus and Bannon I'm not overly optimistic.

Isn't the GOP upset at his choice of Bannon? If so I wouldn't consider it too bad of a choice.

Pretty sure everyone is upset at the choice of Bannon, and for good reason.

Well, except for the KKK and the Nazis

No? It's just the MSM trying to crack down on political correctness. They hate him because they hate Breitbart. What else do they have on him?

And there it is - the definitive proof that when you say "political correctness" what you're actually complaining about is "being held accountable for racist and sexist speech".
Bannon has expressed actual and real racist, sexist, and anti-semetic viewpoints. He is widely supported by white nationalists. The fact that you invoke "b-b-but PC culture!" is all the proof anyone in here needs to know that you use the PC victim card to excuse your own shitty behavior and viewpoints.
It's not "cracking down on political correctness" - it's calling you out for what you and your heroes Trump and Bannon are. Sick. Fucking. Racists.

Upsetting the establishment is the surest way to know that Bannon is the right choice.

That's a shitty metric. Just because something upsets the establishment doesn't mean it's automatically good. Bannon is a terrible person.
17
By that idea, let's commute the sentence for the most notorious serial killer or terrorist on death row and put them in the white house. That will really upset the establishment amirite?
This idea that you perpetuate is awful and only pushes a race to the bottom.

Some people want that, or think they want that

Bannon is worse than the scum of the Earth. Fuck him and his anti-Semitic views.

I don't have a major problem with any of those except Bolton...

What cabinet positions do you think Sarah Palin and Ben Carson would be the most suited for?

Court Jester, perhaps?

How the fuck would I even begin to have the knowledge to make a decision like that.

Seriously? So you think they're qualified to lead a government department, you just have no idea which one. That's.. special

Trump has always been establishment. Just because he technically never held office doesn't change that

Drain the swamp? More like fill the swamp.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 90%. (I'm a bot)
Bolton is a longtime member of the failed Washington elite that Trump vowed to oppose, hell-bent on repeating virtually every foreign policy mistake the U.S. has made in the last 15 years - particularly those Trump promised to avoid as president.
John Bolton more often stood with Hillary Clinton and against what Donald Trump has advised.
Trump has blamed George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for helping to create ISIS - but should add John Bolton to that list, who essentially agreed with all three on our regime change debacles.

He's already betrayed his voters by flipping immediately after the election on a number of wedge issues. And his nominees will only cement him as another Washington crony.
I love watching trump trolls try and play this off by blaming Hillary, as if she matters at all anymore.
well.. that's what happens when you make promises that are literally impossible
Trump got past the "easy" part where he could do nothing but point out the problems and blame other people for it. Now it's time for him to actually get down to work and fix those problems he pointed out.
I sort of get why many people voted for him. There are a lot of problems out there with middle America that no one else was focusing on. What I don't get is how they actually think he's going to damned thing for them. He literally never once said how he will fix anything, all he said was he, personally, is the only one who could and he will, trust him. Pure snake oil salemanship. How in the world did a Billionaire businessman who has spent decades screwing over small businesses and paying political favors become the champion of the little guy?
You know this because you are a clairvoyant.
