Gin or Vodka? (Brand?).
Dry or extra dry?
Olives or lemon peel?

I'm a classic martini.

Gin (Hendricks), very dry (just a rinse), stirred (you shouldn't shake gin), and lemon peel (twisted over the glass before dropping it in).
Am a traditional gin martini guy. Just a splash of vermouth and two Olives served up. For the record I just woke up a very happy camper

That acceptance speech was exactly what you wanted to hear from him.

Edit: I didn’t realize this had already been moved to the off-topic board, so I will expound on my post.

I was always going to vote for the guy, because that was the right decision decision to make, and the left keeps going further and further left, but I did not like a lot of the rhetoric that I was hearing from him leading up to the election, and quite frankly there were times that I told people that I spoke with it I wasn’t very fond of him.

Anyway, as my wife and I are watching the election results come in last night, she kept saying, “there is no way they’re going to let him win”. Throughout the night, she started saying, “do you really think they’re gonna let him win this election?”

As the night on, it seemed clear what was going to happen.

Anyway, even though I was still already going to vote for him, there was a great sense of relief in hearing his acceptance speech, wanting to bend some fences, so to speak, and start the healing process.

I am still not convinced he will sit as President. Trump was right that it would be too big to rig (I still thought they would rig it) so they couldn't cheat this time so they will try something else.

Although the vote counts are incomplete so far, a quick review of the popular vote for each Democrat Presidential candidate in last several elections is pretty conclusive that cheating occurred in 2020. The vote totals were similar in all but a 30% jump in 2020?

This thread wasn't even contentious but was moved prematurely.

It's an interesting choice.

Probably better to move it here prior to any mud slinging.

What’s convenient is that, once you respond in the thread, you can be kept informed / up to date, by the notifications.

My hope is he leads in a common sense moderate way . No reason we can't do this . I believe he will surround himself this time with better people.

He needs to get rid of all the people in the white house that he left in place last time. They worked against him. Get supporting in place in cabinet positions that will push his agenda.

Moderate? No.

Fix the economy, fix the border and let the social issues be on the back burner.

I thought Bernie Mereno (sp?) did a great job of articulating that (with he and his Family being immigrants) that they were basically wanting to welcome anyone that wanted to be here, just need to do it the right way.

Of course he was much more eloquent than what I just typed out.

Border is a social issue so start there and he can chew gum and walk at the same time

I'd argue it's an economic and defense issue, for me at least.

Gets into social when you start talking deportation. I want the order closed.

...and an ***-kicker for an AG. It is not about retribution but about sending a message that the DOJ can't be weaponized.

Trump will round up the illegals and then deport them and close the border. If they want in, they need to follow the process. He really wants to stop the drugs from coming in. He made promises to the mothers of the girls raped and murdered - he will honor his promise.

I think the drug cartels will finally be hit hard by him. Enough is enough.

Economy is a no brainer.
