Before unquestioningly attending these anti-Trump marches and pep rallies, I would think you would at least want to take a minute to read or watch Trump's inauguration address.

His main message is (and has always been) prioritizing America first and returning power back from the global elites to regular citizens. Then ask yourself what motivates career politicians like Representative Espoo (almost 40 years) to attend and lead the charge to divide us.

Could it be that she is actually manipulating you into defending her power structure and the wealthy donors that benefit from it?

Trump's inaugural address? You mean 16 minutes of the same garbage he's been spewing, right?

The problem with Trump supporters like you is that you don't get you've been had by a world-class con man. [Portion removed.]

Perhaps he will turn out to be a con man. He has already suggested he may not fulfill his campaign promise of prosecuting Hillary for the private email server and foundation corruption.

On the other hand, her Global Clinton Initiative seems to be collapsing faster than Obamacare in a death spiral so maybe he can just watch it implode. It looks like the Oil Sheikhs and 3rd world despots did not really care about charitable causes so much once HRC could not peddle her influence.

In any event, everybody is free to check out his contract with America at Web Link

I am sure Trump supporters will be the first to howl if he fails to deliver.

@Sanctimonious,
Any Trump voter with a whit of integrity and who truly believes that the government should work for the people, instead of enriching a few, should already be howling. Maybe start with his conflicts of interest, some of which are unconstitutional, and others involving foreign governments and the US government, that make Hillary's entanglements look like child's play. His actions, and lack thereof, speak louder than the easily spewed words of an inauguration speech or "contract with America"

If you really though a Hillary presidency was fraught for the reasons you suggest, you should be howling now.... You're the sanctimonious and hypocritical one here...

Sanctimonious? Absolutely. Hypocritical? Yes, of course. For some reason, you ommitted the other long list of usual items in the basket of deplorables.

My posts mock the moralizing, the weak minded and the intellectually lazy global elites. Referencing an article from a notebly biased organization from sources with obvious biases (Obama's special counsel on ethics and government reform, really?) that don't even bother to gloss over the complexity of the issues says it all. [Portion removed.]

Just pointing out that Mr. Trump has already failed the test that some elite-busters like you applied to both Obama and Hillary. Glad you acknowledge. Please also note that Bush's special counsel for ethics gave Trump a failing grade, and both have joined a suit over Trump's constitutional violations:
