    He will. We finally put a good, God fearing man in office. God does not bless those who turn their backs on him. Hence the miserable last 8 years. 
    I really liked that President Trump mentioned God several times. I don't know who wrote his speech, but there where a couple of Masonic catchphrases in it. I liked that as well. 
    Lol.  Trump is many things, but one thing he is not is "God fearing" !

    Compared to days gone bye, no, it is not. But we took a step in the right direction today. Obingo is gone and "The Truth" is in.

    My brother, it could not have ended any other way.  

    Brother @SGH , I regret that I am only allowed one vote to agree with you here.  Your post deserves at least half a dozen agrees and as many likes.  Eight years ago, I also knew the disaster was somewhat inevitable.   When the spineless republicans in Congress just stepped aside and let the American people get trampled by this socialist president, the outcome was certain economic turmoil.  It's a good thing his foreign policy was rock solid crappy because that helped distract people from the stellar cesspool economy.

    Yup.  That's what happens when otherwise intelligent people regurgitate what they've heard rather than discuss what they've expended effort to know.

    Let me break it down for you brother Heavy. Everything that I own of any value was purchased during a Republican presidency. Every hardship that I have ever faced was under a Democrat presidency. My homes, my boats, my tractors, my smokers, literally everything was bought and paid for during a Republican presidency. 
    The past 8 years has almost bankrupt people like myself. And obviously I'm not alone. Hence Trump crushing Clinton. The only people who prosper under a Democrat are, well if you think about it just a little it will come to you. No parallel universe my friend. Just some simple and undeniable truths of life.

    Yeah?  Since the economy took a crap in 2008, I have received exactly one pay raise which was previously scheduled.  The raise was more than offset by immediate  increased healthcare costs.  I have taken a handful of pay cuts since then.  We've had a bunch of folks laid off and they're not coming back.  I'm glad you're doing so well brother, but some of us are not as fortunate as you.

    If only people with [multiple] $1,000+ grills could somehow invest in the United States' [already] Great Economy via the Stock Market . . .


    "If you own stocks, you need to thank President Obama

    If you're an investor, there are a lot of people to thank for the second-longest bull market run in history. Perhaps after mentioning people like Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen and S&P 500 CEOs for the support, it would be wise to bring up someone a little more unexpected: President Obama.

    In fact, as far as presidents go, he's been one of the most successful in modern history in supporting the growth of the market according to Bespoke Investment Group.

    "The reality, though, is that the stock market has done exceptionally well under President Obama," wrote Bespoke in a note out Thursday. . . . "

    "obama stock return COTD

    "Let's be clear, it's not as if a president can pull a lever and make the stock market go up, and there are certainly many other factors at play in the rise in stock prices over the last seven years. But, presidential policies do have an impact on the economy, which in turn matters for stocks. So in a roundabout way (at most), a president has some influence over the market . . ."

    I get that the crash/recession of 08 hit a lot of people hard and many folks may still be in a pinch.

    What I don't buy is blaming Obama.

    Housing prices in most areas have recovered to pre-crash levels, mortgage rates are very low, the stock market has doubled, yadda yadda yadda.

    Scottie has told me multiple times off the forum that the Bill Clinton years were very, very good to him and his family.  He just does not want to admit this publicly or he'll get thrown out of his shriners or whatever group.  Just a simple undeniable truth. ;)

    Yeah, I never really know how to take things @sgh says - whether he is serious or just trolling.

    Like this whole anus thing he's been pushing. Part of me thinks he's just messing with us just to see how many of us he can prank into actually eating a$$holes. :)

    Depending on your definition of eating a$$holes, there may be some truth to this.

    Brother Heavy, it's no secret that I like to cut up and troll from time to time. Stir the pot if you will. But I give you my word that I never kid about anus. Never. You can honestly take that one to the bank. Growing up poor we used just about every part of the animals that we raised. Anus included. All jokes aside, battered and deep fried it is excellent.

    I don't know about you, but if I were asked about trolling and I wanted to troll the question, I would say I never kid about it.  Ever.  Swear to my dead dear nanna.

    Again, the genius either doesn't know or is deceitful. It's the type of things you execute the orders on that really matters. Things that are not in the executives authority. This will be screamed about in the coming year. I bet you and the clown posse are the first in line. Hypocrites!

    now you'll pretend you don't get it and ask a bunch of stupid questions I'm guessing.
