The U.S. Consumer Confidence Index for December surged nearly four points to 113.7, THE HIGHEST LEVEL IN MORE THAN 15 YEARS! Thanks Donald!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 28, 2016
Folks, i don't hate Trump. I hope and want him to succeed and serve all Americans as President. It might be good to start soon.— Matthew Dowd (@matthewjdowd) December 28, 2016
@StarDogCh4mpion that doesn't seem positive. Check my tweets over the last year. Pretty dang positive

As everyone on the Left already knew and what many on the Right and the far larger cohort of the Politically Clueless are beginning to realize is that Trump wanted to WIN the Presidency and then to BE President but has no intention of actually, y'know, doing the job because he's just big baby. Doing the actual Prezidentin' job will be left to his butler, Mike Pence.
I'm expecting much political and economic chaos for 2017. And, as I have said to family and friends, I do not see Trump lasting past 2017 as the actual President.
The only serving that will happen under Trump will be his ego his childrens off shore accounts and repeatedly having his ass handed to him by Putin.
Since this arrogant psychopathic buffoon loves to put TRUMP in caps all over his "projects" all over the world, projects he has no intention of divesting, what are the chances they will present a rich symbolic target environment for lots and lots of bad guys? Will he be able to scare ISIS and the Islamic nutjobs away by not paying them or threatening to sue them?
It's not that easy to bomb an embassy or a Navy destroyer and yet it's been done.
How much easier to take down a hotel or a condo or an office building?
Particularly when there's lots of them?
Oh, and if you're in a lot of highly-leveraged "projects" that nobody will go near for fear of being blown up? How do you make money on that?
And after Trump gets rid of the estate tax, they'll get it for free!

What does Dowd define as serving.
Does Dowd understand when it comes to serving
americans, Corporations are people and people are not.
Succeeding?
At what? replenishing the off shore bank accounts that funneled money to Trump?
Allowing the Banks to go Dodd/ Frank free on all our consumer asses?
To drop the "replace" from the replace and repeal?
Going back to the spiralling out of control Health industry profiteering and multitudes of health care related bankruptcies?
Trump has never seriously offered a cause, result and clear action. Merely sound bites and hopla.
So when Dowd states he wants Trump to succeed. He never took on those that openly declared to make Obama fail. We can see Dowd's bread is buttered on the side without mold so that the mold is not visible unless someone is willing to turn the bread slice over and look at it.
In other words, Down claims eating fruit in the dard increases the success of feeding the poor.
Ddowd,
please provide evidence that you confronted Mitch McConnell or John Boehner over their obstructing.
And by the way, would Dowd describe blocking a SCOTUS nominee as the GOP has . The getting on board soon to help a president succeed? Shutting down Government helping succeed?
Come on, Down was born with "Anal Ignorous-what-I-am -paid-to -selfprofiteria".
Oh, I do hope those that lose their health insurance, their family leave, their overtime and their minimum wage thank Trump profusely for the stock market rise and the rise in the Consumer Confidence Index. It'll comfort them no end.
yeah, what bowtiejack said. I can't imagine too many companies or residents will feel much desire to rent in those buildings....
> I hope and want him to succeed and serve all Americans as President.
People of a certain age may recall a line from a Twilight Zone episode: "To Serve Man, it's... it's a cookbook!"
News update on Trump crying about transition: now says all is smooth after convo with POTUS. Had no idea Obama knew psyops.
Tangent: How come the American Psychological Association can't come up with a term to describe multiple personality disorders residing in one person? What would they call a combo plate of narcissism, dissociative identity disorder, paranoia, egomania, sociopathy, psychopathy? -- plus severe Dunning-Krueger syndrome.
I guess I'll have to settle for "cray cray."

Molly Ivins had that covered. "Crazy as a shit house rat."
Has anyone noticed that some of the media is now taking the time to sort of you know, Report on Trump instead of reporting for Trump?
good nite.
Actually, Molly (for whose mighty heart, soul and body only Raspberry Heaven has room) once shared with us, vis-a-vis H. Ross Perot, a fine old Texas phrase that I consider much more appropriate: "crazy as a peach-orchard boar."
"Will he be able to scare ISIS and the Islamic nutjobs away by not paying them or threatening to sue them? "
CLASSIC! thanks for that, bowtiejack!
I think I'll send a mass email to the media's biggest outlets telling them I could write the same sycophantic quisling shit Brave Matty does at a fraction of the price.
I'm willing to sell out.
The DOW plateaued two weeks ago and closed down 111 points yesterday...several wonky economic indicators are pointing to a recession in 2017-2018.
So please Trump, continue the "Look at what Your Glorious Leader has gifted you!" third world dictator shtick.
I would like to see an "Obama Love Fest" by the entire media of his accomplishments, his grievous moments as trying to ease the Sandy Hook mourners. EtcEtc.
Really pour it on and make it for a few weeks.
Donald, who shows he has no self control and his desperate need for attention would get the best, greatest Hugest of him.
That display would be well worth "Obama goodbye love fest".
What do you say Mr (get on with it) Dowd.
How about covering the out going president with the glory he deserves?
---Come on matthew! Get on with it and get over it and start praising our outgoing president for his service against the most do nothing, obstructionist GOP congress we have witnessed in our lifetime.
I challenge Down
Or can't Dowd get on with it......?
Trump is a nut bar, in my humble opinion. he's starting to make Putin's ego look small.
I thought the guy campaigned on draining the swamp. All I can see is more alligators being put into the swamp. Americans watch out. Those alligators are heading to what is left of your education, health care, voting rights, etc.
If Trump thinks he can nuke his way to "victory" he hasn't had a look at the national arsenal yet. They're big nukes, not those precision small ones, like Putin would like to aim at Estonia, Latvia, etc. He under estimates ISIS. he may find his real estate holdings in piles of rubble if he keeps his mouth wandering around his tiny keyboard.
If this weren't so serious, it make for great comedy. Oh, right it already does, SNL.
Consumer confidence is going up because republicans do not follow the economy, they follow what fox news tells them. It is no surprise they think the economy is better now that republicans are set to take over government.
we'll see how great the American economy is when the Americans run out of money, don't have jobs, no health care, no credit left. The 1%ers will be doing well Trump's going to give them more tax breaks, the rest not so much.
