Donald Trump Debuts New ’45’ Presidential Hat

President-elect Donald Trump debuted a new hat over the weekend, previewing his upcoming inauguration as the 45th president of the United States.

The hat was spotted by reporters who watched Trump leave his Mar-a-lago hotel on Sunday afternoon and left for the airport back to New York City.

The hat read “USA” on the front with the number “45” on the side.

A photo of the hat was captured by Reuters and was shared online by Trump fans.

It is unclear whether an official version of the hat will be offered for sale online or at Trump’s various souvenir stores.

I'm not sure I buy these stories floating that Trump is furious with Conway for speaking out against Romney. I do believe two sides are pulling him in different directions, so if anything it sounds more like Priebus or other establishment types leaking something to counter what she said Sunday.

No one has to be more tired after that campaign than Newt and Conway. They were on the forefront, so I'm sure the last thing they want is another battle. If they are speaking out publicly I trust their instincts. Obviously, we'll support Trump with whoever he picks, but their side has my support. Maybe Petraeus is middle ground for those two groups?

While I think there are worse choices than Petraeus, I don't see how Trump could possibly support him for Sec. State because Petraeus was convicted of mishandling classified info.

If Trump's rallying cry against Hillary was her mishandling of same while at State, I don't see how he could be anything but hypocritical if he chose someone who already committed the "crime".

Yes, I know what Hillary did and what Petraeus did are not necessarily the same, but the parallels are too obvious to miss.

HOUSTON, TX. – November 27, 2016: True the Vote (TTV), the nation’s leading voters’ rights and election integrity organization, today released a statement with respect to President-Elect Donald Trump’s claim that “millions” of individuals illegally voted in the 2016 Election.

“True the Vote absolutely supports President-elect Trump’s recent comment about the impact of illegal voting, as reflected in the national popular vote. We are still collecting data and will be for several months, but our intent is to publish a comprehensive study on the significant impact of illegal voting in all of its many forms and begin a national discussion on how voters, states, and the Trump Administration can best address this growing problem.”

President-elect Donald Trump will meet for a second time with former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney on Tuesday to vet him as a potential secretary of state

A CNN reporter tweeted late in the afternoon that Trump and Romney will have dinner Tuesday night in addition to their second meeting.

Not many Secretaries of State have had a rap sheet. I imagine the Senate will give this close attention should it become necessary.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

I believe that Trump will nominate Senator Bob Corker for Secretary of State. He is the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relation Committee, and shares a similar background.

quote:
In an interview with Esquire, Corker said that he started working when he was 13, collecting trash and bagging ice. Later he worked at Western Auto and as a construction laborer. After graduating from college, he worked for four years as a construction superintendent. During this time he saved up $8,000, which he used to start a construction company, Bencor, in 1978. The company's first large contract was with Krystal restaurants, building drive-through windows.The construction company became successful, growing at 80 percent per year, according to Corker, and by the mid-1980s carried out projects in 18 states. He sold the company in 1990.

In 1999, Corker acquired two of the largest real estate companies in Chattanooga: Osborne Building Corporation and Stone Fort Land Company. In 2006 he sold the properties and assets that had formed these companies to Chattanooga businessman Henry Luken.

In recognition of his business success, in 2005 the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga named him to their “Entrepreneurial Hall of Fame.” Corker has said that he believes his business background has been valuable in his political career and that experience "gives [him] unique insights and allows [him] to weigh in, in valuable ways". As of 2008, Corker's assets were estimated at more than $19 million.

I guess the lesson here is if you are going to launder money, hide the process in plain sight. I can't wait to see what riots and other unlawful acts of dissidence are fueled with Stein's Soros-Lottery winnings.

Pennsylvania State Department says Stein missed recount deadline

http://www.washingtonexaminer....line/article/2608305

Jill Stein has everything she needs to launch a presidential recount. She's got the cash, the grassroots fervor and the spotlight of an adoring media. But there's one thing she needs to overturn Trump's victory: a calendar.

Stein missed Pennsylvania's deadline to file for a voter-initiated recount. That blown deadline is a huge blow for Democrats who have pinned their hopes on recounts in the Keystone State, Michigan and Wisconsin.

"According to Wanda Murren, spokeswoman for the Pennsylvania Department of State," the Philadelphia Inquirer reported Monday, "the deadline for a voter-initiated recount was Monday, Nov. 21."

To keep their hopes alive, Stein has mounted a legal challenge in an attempt to force a recount. While the chances of litigation are uncertain, the vote tally is clear. Trump beat Clinton in Pennsylvania, a feat not accomplished by a Republican since Ronald Reagan in 1984.

While it wasn't a landslide, it wasn't close either. Trump carried the state by 70,000 votes, a significant margin that will be hard to overcome.

And even if Stein manages a recount in Pennsylvania, nothing's guaranteed. Of the thousands of statewide races in the last 15 years, only 27 have been decided by recounts and only three challengers have pulled off an upset.

Here's an idea . . .

What is hard for many to understand sometimes is the interplay between personal faith and politics.

Some people are patriotic, care deeply for their country and fellow citizens but engage in politics not thinking through how the “art of compromise” may not easily square with absolutist versions of faith.

For such persons, straddling the ugly reality of politics is not always easy. Having one foot in an ideal kingdom in one’s mind and the other foot in the dirty land of compromise among bad alternatives can be troubling. This guy thought he could become an elector but finally realized that he had to shift more weight to the dirty side such that he became uncomfortable.

In this election, evangelicals grew up as a voting block. When Jimmy Carter was the believers’ candidate, Evangelicals and people of faith learned that having a faith-filled president does not mean that the president will do well for the country. Evangelicals later advanced Pat Robertson in his failed bid for the presidency and the list went on.

Evangelicals are at a growing stage, realizing that someone who may not be the best Christian may be the best choice for president among the alternatives.

Ideally, Evangelicals would want a person of strong faith and sterling moral character. In the past, the left simply showed the moral failing of a candidate and the Evangelicals withdrew, leaving leadership to people who were very bad for the country.

So, this elector probably presented himself as earnest and enthusiastic to his fellows. The guy even signed a pledge of sorts. Then, he decided that he had already compromised himself more than his internal moral view would comfortably allow. So, he resigned.

Frankly, he may just have more road to travel before he can see what Jerry Falwell, Jr, Pastor Jeffers and so many other Evangelical leaders understood this cycle. The issues are bigger than one man’s internal morality play. That he became an elector is not a stretch to me but he was just not ready in his own moral framework for the job.
