After meeting with President-elect Trump last Thursday morning, President Obama told reporters, "I believe that it is important for all of us, regardless of party and regardless of political preferences, to now come together, work together, to deal with the many challenges that we face."
This is code language for: "We lost the election, so now we have to convince Republicans that they should give us an equal say in all decisions over the next four years. Those idiots have fallen for this ploy in the past, so we may as well try it again."

Given all the information from end time ministries. I made a choice to vote for trump. I just read trump elected Bannon as part of his cabinet.
(Nationally syndicated radio host Glenn Beck said Tuesday that the alt-right movement is "truly terrifying," adding that while leading Breitbart News, Stephen Bannon gave a voice to white nationalists.
White nationalists see advocate in Steve Bannon, who will hold Trump to his campaign promises "He has given a voice and power to that group of people," Beck told Anderson Cooper on "AC360." "You don't empower people like that. You just don't. It's not smart.)
But if I voted for Hillary that more innocent more murdered babies via abortion. I'm not sure anyone did the right thing.
Reina, this is a predictable attack from the left. I haven't seen anyone produce anything written or spoken by Steve Bannon that suggests he's a supremacist or anti-Semitic. This is based on things others have said on the news website he used to manage. We cannot conclude that just because he published a certain perspective it means he agrees with it. My brother Tom posts all kinds of things on this blog that I don't agree with. I hope no one would try to say that because I let him express his views without censorship, that must mean I agree with him.
What if your wrong? Trump has said things that match some of the words from the documentary of the civil rights movement including during the debate this year, "In the good old days this doesn't happen because they used to treat them very, very rough. and when they protested once, they would not do it again so easily. I love the old days, you know what they used to do to guys like that...they'd be carried out on a stretcher." Who was the THEM he was referring to during the debate when he said those things? Of course these question may be ones only he can answer but it appears to me as though non whites should be concerned.
Your safe.
Reina, your initial comments had to do with Steve Bannon. That's what I responded to. Now you're talking about Donald Trump. There is no hard evidence that either man is racist; in fact with Trump, there is much evidence to the contrary. Donald Trump has been in the public eye for many decades and has never been accused on being racist until this past year by his political adversaries. This is all political theater; it is not anchored in reality. Be safe. Feel safe.

My apologies. It's not the administration voted in or picked, it's the ignorant people who promote and desire to practice racism that concern me. The individuals serving give confidence to such to practice the desire of their hearts. Just as with the Obama administration gave confidence to LGBT to boldly practice and/or discriminate anyone not for their desires/beliefs. But racism is a illness that is destructive. Racism, especially practiced by ignorant people can get twisted (just as LGBT) and violent/deadly. Worse yet when practiced by persons in power. They have their followers.
These things stir up my own experiences, I am neither black nor white. And my own people, call me white because I don't fit their template (not of looks).
David, there is a YUGE difference between allowing unfiltered comments versus a web site that caters to anti semitics and white nationalists. To believe the owner of the site does not also subscribe to those ideas is just having your head in sand. Reina said this is what Glenn Beck says. Glenn Beck is not a part of the left.
Don't be afraid Reina, but for sure stay concerned and let's see what happens next year.
This is what we all should worry about with a President Trump.

Just because bigots support a candidate doesn't mean the candidate supports the bigots.
I've noticed that the rants and screeds against Bannon and Sessions have begun to fade. This is because the Leftists have accomplished their purpose. Their predictable tactic is to tar all conservatives who rise to prominence of any kind with the label of racism. Once tarred, they can go their way and that person will forever bear the label. From that point on, the Leftist minions can go on their Leftist news shows and talk about the person as though it is a given that the person is racist, regardless of the fact that no real evidence has been presented and many reliable people have testified to the contrary. Just watch the pattern. They do it masterfully. The greatest example is Trump himself, who is now considered a racist by half the country, whereas in 35 years of public exposure no one had ever accused him of racism. It was only after he entered the political arena. It truly is a gladiator sport.
