You guys were embarrassed as Americans? I voted for Hillary but I thought it was really cool seeing all the former presidents and current Supreme Court justices. I thought trump s speech was pretty good. My 8th graders were in awe watching it.
The only thing I was embarrassed about was the small percentage of protesters who were three to incite violence and cause damage to private property.

Wait so your proud to have him represent you ..to the world ? I for one am totally embarrassed ...

I myself don't give a shit what the world thinks of us, why should I? We have enough crap to deal with here within our own borders to worry about something as silly as image, that's a middle school worry. Or a 7up commercial. At least the guy says he's focused on fixing the things Americans need. I'm glad we won't be apologizing to the rest of the world anymore like we did for the last 8 years.

Agree that he may be a poor public speaker, looks like a hairy cheetoh and has tiny hands, but I can get over that.

You know there's an actual component of the job where he needs to make decisions on international affairs? Someone can try to be an isolationist all they want, but that doesn't change reality.

Of course, i know that, but im not talking about his policies. I was replying to the comment that he's embarrassing as far as how he represents us to the world, not as far as his international decisions and policies. I just don't care how people see us or him, it really doesn't mean much to me as far as how I weigh a president. Since he hasnt even made any policy yet that could be judged. the only thing that the outside world could judge him on is his speeches, rallies, tweets, etc., and it doesn't bother me how people think of us all due to those, that's all pretty trivial and surface level to me

He's already had interactions with Russia and has flubbed with China. He's expressed policies that can be judged. None of this is trivial. It's time to have actual expectations for trump.

Russia doesn't scare me, their economy is shit and the only thing they export is vodka which they drink too much of anyway. China makes too much of our goods, so I'm glad he's flubbed with them whatever that means. Trump plays the game, and that's what you have to do, right?

China could completely dismantle our economy is they wanted to. And colluding with a Russian dictator destabilizes everything around the edges of their country. The only "game" trump is playing is what's in his head and what makes him feel good.

One good thing came out of the violent protests. Richard Spencer got punched

I m giving the guy a chance. If he s terrible then I ll jump on the bandwagon. But until then I really hope he does a good job.

Does that equate to you being proud you asked if some of us are embarrassed I stated that I'm embarrassed ! So I take it your proud .

Of course I m proud. I love this country. Today we got to witness living history.

Ok I'm proud of being an American but I'm embarrassed to have this man represent me as an American ! Just a ? For you would you let him near your wife or daughter alone

I d like to think I have enough trust in my wife and the leader of the free world to be alone together. My 12 year old daughter really shouldn't be alone with any 70 year old men except her grandfathers.

I'm not saying Trump would do anything, but honestly, trust in your wife does not prevent sexual assault from happening.

This I know.

There has to be at least one for sure.

The rioting is terribly embarrassing. I'm embarrassed by some of the things I've seen regarding President Obama on social media. I'm worried by the nationalistic and populist address given by the President. Some of the noted changes made to the White House website are troublesome if it is an indication of things to come.

Lots of feelings today, obviously.

Yes about the White House website . . . Says everything we need to know about the policies he'll push through

Bu$hleaguer seemed to be a cathartic exercise for Ed, trying to rid himself of his demons and his assist in getting W elected. My Way is something Trump chose because he's Trump. He's used to "My Way". He lives "My Way". What a prophetic start to the song, too... "And now, the end is near".

All the wants you just listed won't happen with trump and nothing except his hot air said it would. If you look at his plans, they will actually have the opoosite effect.
