Democrats' Total Failure and Utter Humiliation Delights All Real Americans"Now that the Democrats’ dream of stealing the 2016 election through the power of MSNBCNN-fueled outrage, and through plots by fussy lib bureaucrats, lies in ruins, some people might argue that we should be gracious in our total victory and not mock the stinging pain that accompanied this latest agonizing failure.

"In this current political climate, it seems like liberals objectively oppose Donald Trump, for no reason at all.
It's almost like they were wired by institutions to think a certain way and block out any sort of logic and reasoning.
A YouTube page by the name of CampusReform is taking that challenge straight to the front doors of these liberal institutions.
The host of the channel goes around universities asking students challenging political questions in order to get a common liberal response.

Rhode Island towns moving to block TCI – Boston Herald"Rhode Island municipalities are sending a message to their governor, one of the leading proponents of the Transportation Climate Initiative, by passing resolutions against it.
“Don’t make the lives harder for the people of Woonsocket because you want to join feel-good, baseless initiatives that make it tougher for people to afford to pay for their gas,” City Council Vice President Jon Brien told the Herald.
