... there's the Stones song ...

On June 30, 2015, I saw a thought by someone who wanted to encourage, in his own way, Donald Trump in his run for the presidency.

Although he also wrote that his cat had more of a real chance, he thought Trump should be encouraged nonetheless writing,

"When I was younger- and to an extent still- I was the guy who would speak up about the elephant in the room. I could not understand- and to an extent still do not- why no one else would say "There's an elephant in the room." Perhaps it was the efforts of my father to instill in me a strong sense of right and wrong, and to speak up- to speak up when I saw something I thought to be wrong, and the consequences be damned.

Cowards proceed with caution and the just man says 'consequences be damned', right, dad? Para is that guy. Donald Trump is that guy, at last he is when he's lambasting the established political order in this country. The world needs people like me and the Donald, so, even though you don't need my encouragement, Mr. Trump, I say go get 'em, tiger. Make 'em regret even getting out of bed in the morning.

Months and months later, we are here. Thank you Para for your efforts to keep this thread on task at such an important time for many of us and for our nation.

Thank you to all the contributors as well. There has been so much honesty, humor, joy, humility, bragging and so many other things that have made this election more real from a cross section of our nation than I have ever had the fortune to experience.

There is a lot to do now and I'm starting with Grand Marnier and toasting with my wife as we listen to the last of Trump's victory speech.

That's President Ass Clown, and thank goodness for that...

Oh my God, playing the 'Stones, "You can't always get what you want." in the hall right now. I wonder if that was dedicated to Hillary?

Just a reminder, Colorado still has another 23 counties that aren't yet included, and we're only behind here by 2.6% or about 60,000 votes. It may not matter, but it's not done here.

Really doesn't matter, it's over...

Good speech.

Oh Hell YES!!!!

We Did it boys. We did it.

The improbable elected by us deplorables! An apologetic America no more! God bless America! Glad to be in this basket with you all.

Playing that song was genius. I hope it is playing loudly in the liberals dreams tonight.

Mr. President, see my sig line.

He just gave kudos to the Secret Service. What a contrast to HRC and her referring to them as dogs.

Exactly my thoughts. He is thanking his people individually and by name.
It looks like he is making his SS guys a little nervous working the crowd.

DJT's play this ever since the RNC convention. It pissed off the Ryan's and the Pansey Graham's. And the geriatric center from the UK known as the Rolling Stones.

What a ride.

Thanks Para for providing this spot for all of us to share this.

You can't always get what you want. Hahahahah goodnight to all! Love you guys and are amazing country.

I think he plays that after all his speeches.
