Watched the whole thing. Live blogged it on Facebook.
Trump - -
- - in full-throated gloating, replaying all the slights that came his way from the doubters, and which he overcame.
And boo, dishonest media!
And Trump made a ton of contradictory promises - - huge tax cuts, huge spending increases - - promises he cannot fulfill unless the Congress prints new, Trump $25 bills which can be spent by the trillions for new infrastructure, inner-city rebuilding, poor rural community-rebuilding, constructing new harbors, and, no doubt, paying off businesses galore like Carrier to keep jobs in the US, etc.
I noticed a lot of older people in the crowd there: Do these good people know that Paul Ryan wants to privatize their Medicare? Gut Medicaid which is keeping some of their lower-income neighbors, made relatives, too, alive? Blow up Obamacare which is paying for many of their children's medical care - - all of which Trump seems willing to sacrifice or default to Ryan and the Freedom Caucus to send into their ideological shredder.
So, yeah - - right now the Generalissimo has movement, and he and it are riding high and they all got hear their champion bask in the cheers and claims a fake landslide and rant at the media, again.
They defeated the evil Hillary. They got to chant "Lock her Up, lock her up," again.
So, yes, good times in Cincinnati, and elsewhere in the next few weeks where Trump takes his more victory laps, but this campaign and transition comes to an end in January when the Congress is in session, and Paul Ryan begins chopping away at things the Ohioans, et al take for granted and Trump will not be able to deliver on promises he's made about programs and issues he does not grasp or have interest in mastering...and then, when Putin or the China or Iran or or Mother Nature make their moves - - good times, not so much.
