President-elect Donald Trump has named Reince Priebus, an Orthodox Christian, as his White House chief of staff come January 2017.

The forty-four year old Priebus has a long history in politics, and is a personal friend of House speaker Paul Ryan, which is expected to help in garnering legislative victories for the Trump administration, The Guardian reports.

Priebus has served as state treasurer and Republican party chairman in Wisconsin, and took up the post of Republican National Convention chairman in 2011, becoming a loyal Trump campaign adviser and helping to garner broad support that led to his victory.

More importantly, the soon-to-be chief of staff is an Orthodox Christian, and through his efforts with fellow Orthodox Republicans, the need for defending religious freedom in places of high risk for Orthodox Christians was added to the Republic Party platform, according to the Greek Archdiocese’s official site.

Priebus is an active member of St. Sophia's Greek Orthodox Catheral in D.C. His 2016Paschal message reads:

Christos anesti! I want to wish Orthodox Christians around the world a happy and blessed Easter. As our church has done for generations, we celebrate the resurrection of Christ and the love of God in providing a savior. Just as the first Christians praised God at the sight of the empty tomb, we too praise our good and merciful God today for his victory over the grave. Christ's sacrificial work provides an example for us all, and we join with the Psalmist in saying 'You make known to me the path of life.' Easter is a time for the celebration of new life, and I pray we will all draw on that new hope throughout the year,

and on his personal Twitter account he exclaimed: “To my Greek Orthodox friends, Kalo Pascha and Christos Anesti!”

Did you find out the latest news via the MSM ?

"Evil Trump goes out to dinner with his family without inviting the MSM!"

"Evil Trump wants to forego his salary,that's against the Constitution!"

:rofl::rofl:

These loosers re desperate.
They're pathetic losers. All they can do is continue to whine like the little b!tches they are. Nobody cares anymore about what they have to say. They're just clutching at straws now and looking ridiculous in the process.

I honestly hope all of the leftist "protests" continue to get more violent, it's doing great wonders for the Republican party and the Alt-Right.

isis need him and his speeches to brainwash more people to join their militia.
ISIS was using Obama's speeches wherein he said he will bomb them in Syria, so it makes no difference.

And if you're implying a violent backlash from Muslims in the West as a result of Trump's victory then guess who that's going to hurt the most? Certainly not the non-Muslims if that's what you were hoping.

Every terrorist attack and every Leftist riot pushes America further to the right.

LOL.... these guys are really horrible pollsters.

CwrD0QoXAAE2ryH.jpg

Though to be honest ,every single pollster out there failed in predicting the conclusion. All of them have truly screwed up & have a LOT to answer for. Their reputation is now in tatters
[Though I must add Nate Silver said there was a x<10% chance of Donald Trump becoming POTUS ,but HRC still gets the popular vote]

@KAL-EL @LA se Karachi I told you guys there was a "Silent" Trump voter out there which the polls didn't show ;)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MY GOD HE ACTUALLY DID IT!! He's becoming the next POTUS! :usflag::usflag::usflag: #MAGA

A small part of me always thought he would win... but I never believed he could actually do it!

@Desert Fox @T-72 @Nilgiri @boomslang Congrats guys!:cheesy: :cheers: :nana::victory: YOU DID IT!! You were always positive about his victory even when the odds were low!!

So is there any party any of you are organizing?:D:P We have to celebrate the defeat of the Establishment & the MSM + the political destruction of the Bush & the Clinton families .

"Donald Trump Will Never Win" Compilation



Nobody can take the media or their rigged polls seriously after this epic fail. :lol:

I think this is the best one:rofl::rofl::rofl:

The last line gives it an excellent ending =D

=================================================================================

Donald Trump was the focus of President Obama’s jokes at the 2011 White House Correspondents' Dinner. It was there that Trump resolved to run for president, adviser Roger Stone tells FRONTLINE in this scene from “The Choice 2016

"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."

Guys this video could go down as one of the important moments in History!! He was invited by Obama to be humiliated & mocked!!
hqdefault.jpg


& now a few years later,he has to teach the same guy the ropes of running the nation with the full knowledge his legacy is going to hell when he does become POTUS :D:rofl::rofl:
obama-trump-meeting.jpg


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@RabzonKhan @All those scared of Trump Mate.. don't worry too much.This is the USA we are talking about,not some random third world nation where a crazy religious mullah/army/tribal leader/out of control mob snatches control of the state ,brings suffering & torture upon their opponents & all institutions go to hell. Your nation has some pretty strong institutions! Your armed forces,judicial officials,state governors & reps. aren't walkovers politically,legally & psychologically .

Your Constitution & Bill of Rights won't be ignored & will always be held in great respect by EVERYONE.No Politico has the guts to say anything which isn't good about it, this includes Trump. If they go against it,the activists will go after them in the courts

No POTUS can ever have a free hand in doing whatever he wants,somebody will always oppose him for some reason(good or bad). Also the establishment,Democrats & the MSM will do their best to give him hell & oppose him.

& you live in Washington, a pretty Liberal State. Just keep yourself armed with a gun/some sort of weapon to keep the racists away if they attack you or ignore them if they mouth something at you. They are just drunk & elated with their success & they will stop later.

Already many of the Repubs don't like him anyway,so this will be no dictatorship. Yes,some choices/decisions of his will be pretty objectionable & controversial. But if he does anything totally ridiculous or totally self serving or serious like Nixon/HRC',he will be impeached.
I bet he will be forced to scale down his Muslim ban(which even Paul Ryan said was wrong & could be challenged in the Supreme Court)

Add to that he is a businessman,they are always pragmatic(by nature & compulsion).He won't be a crazy ideologue like some politicos are! Yes he's gonna get stuff wrong,he's gonna make mistakes. (& yes he does do outrageous stuff & says stupid things)

But I can tell you after doing some research he has been planning this Presidential run for years, he truly loves his nation & cares about it & believes he as POTUS can do something good for it. He didn't enter the campaign for PR & money(which he is very sensitive about). He did it because he truly wants to help his nation...


enhanced-12123-1436563120-13.png


Now that he has indeed become POTUS.. I do hope he succeeds in his aims, he can do it. He has many flaws.. but he can do it.
Let us all HOPE for the best for the USA & the world. The last thing we need is for all his critics to be proved right. We don't need a nuclear war now, do we :)

One important point:- A Professor who predicted Trump has a 87% chance of winning also said he could be impeached in his first term
http://www.cnbc.com/2016/11/16/alla...mpeached-in-office-within-his-first-term.html


Apparently Clinton's name has been cleared in the email scandal. Again..
Hehe ,but the damage has already been done Jhaji. People had remembered the scandal again.& the fact they examined so many emails in such less time had created suspicion & thus came the conclusion in many minds==> The system is rigged!! Trump is right! Drain the Swamp!/I'm not voting for her!

Even her own aides agree to this now

Told you, Hillary is stability, Trump is a disaster, the madman with horrible temperament will ruin our economy and would send the economy back into recession and this time it will be even worse.

Vote wisely, and remember, in the end, it's the economy, stupid!

Dow surges 300 points as FBI clears Clinton on eve of election

The broad market looks on track to break a nine-day losing streak, Wall Street's longest in 36 years, as investors again start to price in their base case of a Clinton win. :usflag:Read more



Market Stampede sees US Dollar Steamroll British Pound, Euro and other Foreign Exchange Majors

The US Dollar is outperforming its rivals as global financial markets rapidly price a Clinton victory in the hours before polling stations open across the United States. :usflag:Read more
Well DOW jones did not collapse as was expected by many people.. It may not mean something positive,but atleast it was nothing negative.

So,if Clinton wins,Bill will become the first lady ? :p:
Naa I think HRC would be the first lady, Bill would be the First Husband/Gentleman/Man

Florida? Why would any Latino vote for Trump? He was unpopular to Black folks to begin with, then alienated whatever little Muslim votes there were, and then pi$$ed off the Latinos. Unless Latinos and Blacks stay home, I don't see a Republican President for years.
Trump's downfall will be his own big mouth! He had a real chance. Had it been Biden, instead of Hillary, Trump would be humiliated big time.
But then... the night depends on how many Latinos and Blacks come out. Trump surely has a passionate following--motivated, like Blacks were for Obama in 2008.
Trump insulted only the MEXICAN LATINOS!! Not all of them.

Latinos are divided among sub nationalities and religion! When he attacked Mexicans,it didn't bother the others-puerto Ricans,cubans,salvadorians,venezuelans,argentinians etc etc too much

& Florida is majority Cuban Latino! You find Mexican Latino in the border states or in Illinois+New York in good nos.!

& now It seems the Cuban Hispanics didn't care if he insulted the Mexicans, they are usually pro Repub as a group. They hate castro & are Christian conservatives! Though the younger ones are more liberal

This is really Hillz fault. She completely ignored the rural White vote. Why ignore the largest demographic in your country??
Arrogance or her team & of herself. She thought the Obama coalition+Moderate Repubs would sweep her to the White house. She also totally ignored Michigan & Wisconsin after the Democratic Primaries. -_- unlike Trump

In her entire team,only her husband talked of doing something to get the votes of Rural whites+white working class. He carried out some rallies,but it was far from enough

"But in general, Bill Clinton’s viewpoint of fighting for the working class white voters was often dismissed with a hand wave by senior members of the team as a personal vendetta to win back the voters who elected him, from a talented but aging politician who simply refused to accept the new Democratic map. At a meeting ahead of the convention at which aides presented to both Clintons the “Stronger Together” framework for the general election, senior strategist Joel Benenson told the former president bluntly that the voters from West Virginia were never coming back to his party."

BANG ON

The Deplorables Trumped the Establishment,the MSM & the Obama Coalition!


I can only imagine what must be going on at the White House right now...

@Desert Fox @T-72 @Nilgiri @boomslang Congrats guys!:cheesy: :cheers: :nana::victory: YOU DID IT!! You were always positive about his victory even when the odds were low!!

well, if you followed him right from the start and watched his rallies you knew there was something special happening with tens of thousands crowding those big arenas with some showing up 8 - 10 hours before his speech just to get a good spot, not normal for a politician, not even in the US. Shame the media establishment never truly showed the scale of his events, they'd talk about it in passing mentioning big crowds but were always dismissive and trying to dampen just how popular he really was/is.

meanwhile Crooked Hillary, who now looks like she's dying for real, was struggling to even fill high school gymnasiums and people caught the media trying to prop her crowds up with camera techniques etc many times. 30 people showed up to a Tim Kaine event in the last 2 weeks of the race to see him in the crucial swing state of Florida.

apart from crazed feminists, there was never any enthusiasm for crooked neocon Hillary, she had zero independent commentators endorsing her, those who did, did so with their noses held tight. So apart from the msm, she had no support anywhere. Shame about Bernie, shame that he was treated the way he was, and shame that he sold out the way he did.

@RabzonKhan @All those scared of Trump Mate.. don't worry too much.This is the USA we are talking about..
yup, but their lefty msm is already flooding their airwaves with stories of bullying in random high schools etc, 'growing intolerance' :rolleyes:

Trump is too smart a person to be a hateful bigot, people see through that, which is why crooked illary lost. He seems to be pretty straightforward guy, not polished, but not evil either. I'm convinced he doesn't hate any specific group of people, those who support him because they think he does are going to be sorely disappointed.

Anyway, short of declaring war, where he'll need congressional approval, President Trump will be most free of shackles in how his administration conducts their foreign policy. John Bolton and Mitt Romney's name have been floating around as possible next Secretary of State, Bolton is probably the worst of the neocons, with Romney, maybe they have an insider system of rewarding past presidential race losers with plump postings like the SoS, who knows.

Gen Flynn got NSA:

very impressive credentials, he's hardcore, fired for not being politically correct lol


I think he understands the sallafist threat quite well and is pro detente with Russia instead of helping those saudi al qaeda guys in Syria. Good to know he'll have President Trump's ear on that stuff. :agree:



also, US citizens, allies, enemies, randoms, a lot of different people have a lot of different expectations of this Trump presidency :lol:

not everyone will be pleased, let's see how he handles this mother of all pressure cooker situations.
 
.
Its the dawn of a new beginning.

The Right will begin to seriously feed off this Trump victory all across the civilised world. Its about time as people shed the political correct BS fed to them by the leftist cartel (who have cleverly transitioned into stealth + deception mode ever since the USSR imploded big league)....... and vote for common sense and hopefully non-political creatures (to stick it to the political elite abandoning them). This is what democracy is about truly....and it happened in the greatest democracy on Earth so there is hope for everyone else.

2016.....what a year! I was at my prime of my life when it happened.....do I have a story to tell my grandkids down the road ;)
The world is becoming more conservative!

World leaders like Abe,Cameroon,Modi,Trump,Duterte,Netanyahu,Erdogan etc are rising & wining elections.

UKIP,The National Front,BJP & other right wing forces are rising & becoming stronger!

The Liberal-Left consensus among global elites post WW2 & post the Cold war is Collapsing to make space for the simple conservative nationalism of the tired,frustrated & energized masses!

This entire story of their rise & fall, the inspirational stories of such world leaders will make amazing stories to younger generations in the future(nephews & nieces :) :blah:)... & if I have kids with my crush :wub::wub:

Pocahontas ?

much debunked already, that Simpsons episode was aired in late 2015 :)
@xenon54 No, you are right on the fact that the Simpsons predicted a President Trump :)

Check this old episode from the year-2000 where Lisa becomes POTUS after Trump =D =D (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bart_to_the_Future)
"In the opening credits of the episode "Havana Wild Weekend", aired on November 13, 2016, Bart writes "Being right sucks" as the chalkboard gag in reference to Donald Trump winning the 2016 U.S. presidential election, predicted by this episode.[23]"

Show creator Matt Groening said last month: “Back in 2000 Trump was, of course, the most absurd placeholder joke name that we could think of at the time and that’s still true. It’s beyond satire.”

It talks of the budget crunch inherited from President TRUMP .

Could there be some oracle on the Simpsons show ?? :o:

I read a tweet which aptly gave the outline of trump's selection for key positions calling it "an Islamophobic's Wet Dream"

The man who earlier stood no chance in presidential elections, one who was mocked by liberals is now the POTUS. What if he wins as a President too and fulfills all his promises. Nothing can be ruled out for a confidant and tough personality like Trump in the land of dreams.

@KAL-EL @LA se Karachi I told you guys there was a "Silent" Trump voter out there which the polls didn't show ;)


I think it had more to do with turnout than the "silent voter" issue, given that we are talking about polls. Sure enough, just as I had warned us earlier, not enough young voters and disaffected Democrats showed up to the polls. While white, rural and working-class voters swung hard for Trump.

But with that said, yes, pollsters did a terrible job. I said before that if Trump were to win despite what polling showed, it would be unprecedented. He did, and it was.

One important point:- A Professor who predicted Trump has a 87% chance of winning also said he could be impeached in his first term
http://www.cnbc.com/2016/11/16/alla...mpeached-in-office-within-his-first-term.html


I remember reading articles about him before the election. I thought his prediction was interesting given what polling was showing, and wondered what would happen to him after the election. Well, it turns out that he was right. His streak continues.

the political destruction of the Bush & the Clinton families

We can all toast to this. :cheers:

Hillary had just one job to do. One simple job. She manged to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory yet again. I never want to see any of the Clintons (or Bushes) in politics again.

& Florida is majority Cuban Latino! You find Mexican Latino in the border states or in Illinois+New York in good nos.!

& now It seems the Cuban Hispanics didn't care if he insulted the Mexicans, they are usually pro Repub as a group. They hate castro & are Christian conservatives! Though the younger ones are more liberal


You sure seem to know a fair bit about American politics. Kudos.

She thought the Obama coalition+Moderate Repubs would sweep her to the White house.


Indeed she did. I never thought that winning over some moderate Republicans would be enough. And sure enough, it wasn't.

She also totally ignored Michigan & Wisconsin after the Democratic Primaries. -_- unlike Trump


It was very foolish of her to not spend time campaigning in those states (until the very end). She should have fallen back to these "firewall" states, instead of campaigning in states like North Carolina, Arizona, Ohio, and Iowa. She didn't need any from the latter group to to win.

In her entire team,only her husband talked of doing something to get the votes of Rural whites+white working class. He carried out some rallies,but it was far from enough


We Sanders supporters repeatedly warned people about this. Ignoring the will of working-class whites and rural voters was a dangerous idea. Not only that, she did not appeal to either young voters or independents. Winning the primary with the votes of reliable Democrats and high-turnout, older voters was a bad idea. Sure enough, these issues proved to be fatal in the Presidential election.

Shame about Bernie, shame that he was treated the way he was, and shame that he sold out the way he did.


With all due respect, please refrain from this "sold out" nonsense. His ideas were much closer to Hillary's (he's a leftist, obviously), and he's made his views about Trump very clear, regardless of what you might think. Sanders hates the man and his ideas. He will be fighting Trump on his first day in office. Other than on trade, Trump is diametrically opposed to just about everything Sanders believes in.

Let us all HOPE for the best for the USA & the world. The last thing we need is for all his critics to be proved right. We don't need a nuclear war now, do we :)


Agreed. But I'm fairly certain that we will indeed be proven right. It's not just his views, but his total lack of experience in government that worries me. I'm not sure he has any idea what do on his first day in office. Not to mention his checkered past as businessman and as a person.

He also has an uneasy coalition of working-class rural voters, rich Republicans and business interests, religious/social conservatives, and xenophobic/"alt-right" types. Someone is almost always going to end up unhappy with his decisions.

Read this, it's long. But it gives you an idea what his reaction was like

Thanks for the link. A very interesting read. Just what I was looking for.

But the photo you posted says it all:

obama-trump-meeting.jpg



:lol: I have seen so many of these kinds photos of the US President meeting someone over the years. And this one takes the cake. Neither man can seem to believe that this is actually happening. Obama's face is priceless.


Trump: "I can't believe I'm actually going to be the next President of the United States."

Obama: "I can't believe he's actually going to be the next President of the United States."

Check this old episode from the year-2000 where Lisa becomes POTUS after Trump =D =D (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bart_to_the_Future)

Imagining Donald Trump as our President still makes me laugh. It's almost too comical of an idea to take seriously. Alas, these are the times we live in. The Simpsons jokes are real life now. I've believed for a while now that the world as I know it is ending. Everyday my belief gets stronger and stronger... :D

SEOUL: US President-elect Donald Trump's national security adviser says North Korea's nuclear program would be given a high priority under the new administration, a South Korean official who held talks with him said on Saturday.

Michael Flynn, one of Trump's closest advisers, also said he would work to strengthen the US alliance with South Korea, calling the relationship "vital," the South's deputy presidential national security adviser Cho Tae-yong was quoted as saying by Yonhap news agency.

Cho was leading a South Korean delegation to the United States to meet with key advisers to the president-elect to discuss the two countries' response to the North's pursuit of nuclear weapons in defiance of international sanctions.

Cho spoke to South Korean reporters in Washington following the meeting with Flynn, Yonhap said.

Flynn is a retired Army lieutenant general and a military intelligence veteran of three decades who has championed Trump's promises to take a more aggressive approach to terrorism. His appointment as national security adviser this week does not require Senate confirmation.

The North conducted its fourth and fifth nuclear tests this year under young leader Kim Jong Un, who has vowed to build a nuclear arsenal and ballistic missiles to deliver them. The UN Security Council has held discussions to adopt a toughened new sanctions resolution following the North's Sept. 9 nuclear blast.

US President Barack Obama has been criticized by Congressional Republicans that his policy of "strategic patience" was a failure and that he must make full use of sanctions authorities given to him by Congress.

Trump pledged his commitment to defend South Korea under an existing security alliance during a phone call with South Korean President Park Geun-hye, Yonhap said last week.

Trump had suggested during the election campaign he would be willing to withdraw US military stationed in South Korea unless Seoul paid a greater share of the cost of the deployment. There are about 28,500 US troops based in South Korea in combined defense against North Korea.
