Trump Talks Tranquility
Thomas Gallatin: Donald Trump has begun the process of choosing advisers and cabinet members, and one theme is becoming increasingly clear: Trump is all about mending fences. Over the weekend, Trump announced that his chief of staff would be current RNC chair Reince Priebus, while Breitbart's Stephen Bannon will be his chief strategist. Bannon was Trump's campaign CEO. The announcement said, "Bannon and Priebus will continue the effective leadership team they formed during the campaign, working as equal partners to transform the federal government, making it much more efficient, effective and productive." This move is clearly an attempt to bridge the divide the between the Republican establishment and conservative anti-establishment groups.
In another welcome move, Trump replaced the head of his transition team, Chris Christie, with Vice President-elect Mike Pence. This was a smart change, as Pence is a favorite among principled conservatives and will likely make moves to assuage the fears of those same conservatives. That's not to mention the fact that there are still concerns over more potential political fallout with Christie and the Bridgegate scandal. Trump doesn't need that distraction. What we're witnessing so far shouldn't be that surprising given Trump's history of having surrounded himself with good people.
As for the agenda, Trump isn't quite as rigid as the Leftmedia want you to believe, either. On Sunday night, CBS's "60 Minutes" aired its Friday interview with Trump, in which he was asked questions ranging from his campaign promises to his views on the liar-Clintons. Trump reemphasized his commitment to fixing the illegal immigration problem by holding to his plan to build a border wall and to deport criminal illegal immigrants. But he eased up on liar-nObamaCare, suggesting that he's open to fixes rather than repeal.
Trump was also conciliatory on liar-Hillary Clinton, calling her a very tough competitor. When asked if he would seek to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate liar-Hillary's scandals, Trump demurred. "I don't want to hurt them, I don't want to hurt them," Trump said. "They're good people. I don't want to hurt them." Many Americans believe the liar-Clintons are bad people and that it's critical to prosecute liar-Hillary to uphold Rule of Law and eliminate the double standard the liar-Clintons have enjoyed for too long. Trump seems to think it's more important that he offer an olive branch by way of just moving on.
Where Barack liar-nObama was an idealist whose ideology hampered his ability to constructively accomplish goals, Trump appears to be more of a pragmatist who understands his strength lies in combining the right people to get the goals accomplished. Trump looks poised to continue to do what he has done all through his run for the presidency — defy the "wisdom" of the nation's political elite. ~The Patriot Post

Experts Discuss Libya,
Syria and Chemical Weapons
by John Grady
{usni.org} ~ The key difference between Libya and Syria in the removal of chemical weapons and their precursors from their countries was the trust, transparency and openness that Libyans showed—from removal to transport to destruction... Mallory Stewart, deputy assistant secretary of State for emerging security challenges and defense policy, said Thursday, “Libya went out of its way to keep the international community informed” of where the heavy industrial chemicals that could be transformed into weapons were, the security around the stockpile and details of its movement from a desert storage site to the port for eventual shipment to Germany... https://news.usni.org/2016/11/11/libya-syria-chemical-weapons?utm_source=USNI+News&utm_campaign=e23a4365d2-USNI_NEWS_DAILY&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_0dd4a1450b-e23a4365d2-231491269&mc_cid=e23a4365d2&mc_eid=3999f18767

Valerie Jarrett Key Player in Fast and
Furious Cover-Up After Holder Lied to Congress
{judicialwatch.org} ~ President liar-nObama’s trusted senior advisor, Valerie Jarrett, was a key player in the effort to cover up that Attorney General Eric Holder lied to Congress about the Fast and Furious scandal... according to public records obtained by Judicial Watch. The information is part of a Department of Justice (DOJ) “Vaughn index” detailing records about the gun-running operation known as Fast and Furious. JW had to sue the agency for the records after the liar-nObama administration failed to provide them under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). A federal court ordered the DOJ to provide the records over the agency’s objections. Yesterday JW reported on the broad information in the records, including that liar-nObama asserted executive privilege for Holder’s wife as part of the administration’s efforts to cover up the scandal. Practically lost in the 1,000-plus pages of records is an index that shows Jarrett was brought in to manage the fact that Holder lied to Congress after the story about the disastrous gun-running operation broke in the media...

Analysis: Settlements bill puts
Israel on collision course with liar-nObama
by TOVAH LAZAROFF
{jpost.com} ~ Right-wing ministers on Sunday night put Israel on a collision course with US President Barack liar-nObama over settlements, precisely as he weighs a possible peace initiative... or action on settlements at the United Nations Security Council in his last two months in office. Throwing diplomatic caution to the wind, the Ministerial Legislative Committee gave their initial approval to legislation to retroactively legalize over 2,000 settler homes, many of which are built on private Palestinian property. Effectively, should this pass, it could transform dozens of West Bank outposts into new legal settlements, a move that is a red line for the US and the international community... http://www.jpost.com/Israel-News/Politics-And-Diplomacy/Analysis-Bill-to-create-new-settlements-puts-Israel-on-collision-course-with-Obama-UNSC-472567

Trump and International Security
by Richard Kemp
by Richard Kemp
{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ Since Donald Trump's election, media-fuelled panic has engulfed Europe, including over defense and security. We are told that World War III is imminent, that Trump will jump into bed with Putin and pull the US out of NATO... Such fantasies are put about by media cheerleaders for European political elites, terrified that Trump's election will inspire support for populist candidates in the forthcoming elections in Germany, the Netherlands and France. This has been an EU aspiration for many years. Citing Trump is just a cynical pretext for speeding it up. It is already well advanced and has gained greater focus since the UK's decision to leave the EU. The EU army is a vanity project, seen by many European leaders as a necessary instrument of the ever-closer union they desire. Speaking at a meeting of the European Defense Agency in Brussels the day after Trump's election, Ms Mogherini suggested that the EU needs "the full potential of a super power, in the field of defense and security."... https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/9313/trump-international-security

Soros and Other Far Leftists
Instigate Revolution Against Trump
by Joseph Klein
{frontpagemag.com} ~ George Soros and other left wing advocates are seeking to foment a “Purple Revolution” against those who dared to reject their preferred presidential candidate liar-Hillary Clinton and vote instead for President-elect Donald Trump... After all, Soros alone is reported to have “committed $25 million dollars to the 2016 campaign of liar-Hillary Clinton,” and refuses to accept that his investment was wasted. What’s a few hundred million more to pay for imposing his preferred result through civil unrest rather than through the ballot box? As Zero Hedge explains, “The Purple Revolution will…seek to make the Trump administration a short one through Soros-style street protests and political disruption.” Left wing groups, some supported by Soros, are even paying protesters to take part in disruptive demonstrations. Of course, Soros is doing his best to keep his fingerprints off the protests, as a hedge in the event that violence continues to spread. “George Soros is not funding these (anti Trump) protests,” Soros spokesperson Michael Vachon said in an interview. “This is a fiction promoted by the alt-right.”... http://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/264824/soros-and-other-far-leftists-instigate-revolution-joseph-klein

Get a Grip, Losers
by Michael Reagan
{townhall.com} ~ It's all over.
So why are people still arguing about something Donald Trump said three weeks ago?
Why are protestors milling around the streets of our cities holding up misspelled signs and promising revolution?
The argument ended early Wednesday morning when the votes were counted.
Trump won.
It was shocking, amazing, impressive, historic ---- all that and more.
The billionaire with no ideology except egoism, the ex-Democrat no one thought had a chance, turned everything upside down and made fools, losers or incompetents out of both major political parties, the liberal media, the pundits, the pollsters, the financial markets, the weathermen...
You hear suicidal talking heads in the liberal media saying that Trump tapped into something they didn't see.
Of course they didn't see it. They're liberals.
The reality is that Trump tapped into the kinds of issues that talk radio has been talking about for 25 years.
Every issue he brought up in the campaign ---- from the border wall and the bad trade deals to tax cuts, liar-nObamaCare and Islamic Muslim terrorism -- has been talked to death on talk radio.
Trump won because he internalized talk radio. Its audience became his base, which is different from the GOP's base, and he won because his rural rust-belt people showed up on Election Day to smoke liar-Hillary.
So live with it, all you liberal media people, broken-hearted liar-Hillary followers and angry Bernie children.
No matter how much you hated or feared Donald Trump three days ago, he's going to be your president in January.
I know it won't happen, but I hope all sad people will get a grip and say, "Hey, now that he'll be the president, what can we do to help him make America great again?"
Otherwise, what's their position going to be for the next four years? Join protest marches? Sit back and expect Trump to do everything on his own?
Or is it to be helpful?
If it's to be helpful, the first thing you have to do is stop arguing about the issues of the campaign 48 hours after it ended.
Your guy lost. Live with it.
Four years ago, and eight years ago, our guy lost. We lived with it.
Now the Republicans are in charge ---- of everything.
All the things they've been saying they wanted to accomplish in Washington but couldn't because of Harry dinky-Reed, Nancy Pulosi and President liar-nObama's executive orders are soon going to be possible.
Republicans in Washington ---- including the ones who hated Trump -- now have at least four years to put into place all those things they believe will make America great again.
It's going to be kind of hard to get things done if even the people on our side keep screaming and complaining about Trump. So get a grip.
No matter what we Republicans thought about Trump's racist statements, or his crude locker-room talk on the bus, or his narcissism, the bottom line was we thought less of liar-Hillary Clinton.
Even at his worse, Donald was more likable than liar-Hillary could ever be. That's why she lost.
Finally, to all those Democrats and Republicans who don't want to live in America anymore because Trump won, I have some advice:
"Get out of the streets. Go back to work if you have a job. Go back to school if you want to learn something.
"Cut with your rioting. Cut with your foot stomping. Cut with your bad language. Cut with your whining.
"And, really, grow up."
This is how it works every four years.
