To people who voted for trump: How are you feeling about his reign so far?

I know he's only the president elect and technically the electoral college has not officially voted but what do you think?

He's already bungled relations with china which has resulted in them flying nuclear-capable bombers near taiwan. He's seems very amiable with putin and the election appears to have been influenced by the kremlin.
He doesn't believe climate change is real (it's a plot by the chinese) and the people he's appointing to his staff are climate change deniers, hyper-socially conservative and millionaires with conflicts of interest like himself.

These are all objective facts. On the record.
Is he all you hoped for so far?

Love your one-sided "facts" mixed with personal interpretations and biases.

1) It's not his reign. He's President-elect, not king. And he hasn't even taken office yet.

2) He didn't bungle anything. He believes we should have a more pro-Taiwan policy. I agree with him. He also believes China is manipulating trade. He's right. Add them up, and you're going to have an administration that challenges China. Obviously.

3) This isn't the first time China has flown bombers off the coast of Taiwan. In fact, for the last several years they've been running naval exercises and invasion drills and none of you leftists had any problem with it. Mainly because Obama was in office and you were content to be ignorant.

4) There actually is no evidence anyone interfered with the election. That's just desperate grasping at straws, ironically by the exact same people who were up in arms about Trump suggesting elections could be rigged.

5) "Hyper-socially conservative" is your opinion, not a fact.

@Sicarium

1) Don't be so sensitive. It's a turn of phrase. And yes, you'll notice i DID point out that he isn't president yet

2) Maybe he does want a more positive relationship with tiwan. But the reason he got into trouble was because he as ignorant of the diplomatic situation. I wonder what challenging china will result in. It's not as if they control massive production of goods to the US own the billions in dept that the US has accrued.

3) China has long been firm on their claim over taiwan. But you've missed he point. This isn't a routine drill. This was a direct response to trump's actions.

4) I don;t think the CIA desperately grasps at straws. This isn't some conspiracy by disappointed democrats. It's the result of preponderance of evidence gathered by the CIA

5) Perhaps. But i don;t know what else you'd call wanting to re-visit gay rights and women's reproductive rights in what is about to be 2017

@UnparalleledMonster:

1) Who's sensitive? I'm just pointing out how you're intentionally using language to mislead.

2) Again, you're opinion. From what I saw, he knew exactly what he was doing.

3) You're dismissing how this isn't new behavior to begin with. China has been doing this for years. And you didn't have a problem with it. Don't pretend like you care now. And don't be a hypocrite.

4) The CIA didn't say Russia interfered in the election. The CIA said they might have hacked the DNC servers, but provided no evidence. The NSA and FBI both disagreed with the CIA. Ideologues, like you, then took that story and twisted it to include tampering in the election in a desperate attempt at deflecting from the real reason you lost the election and the contents of what was hacked. Hence, grasping at straws.

5) I don't care what you'd call it. You're a leftist ideologue. I don't expect honesty from you, which means I don't care.

@Sicarium:

1) lol you're being sensitive. Because you felt the need to even address the word "reign".

2) Sure seems like none of his advisers did. How lucky that you're in a better position to understand the president elect's moves

3) And you're dismissing the fact that this happened in the midst of china's pushback to trumps dealing with taiwan.
Do you REALLY want to argue that this is just business as usual? ARE you that naive?

4) What the CIA discovered was that the kremlin had strategically leaked information. The FBI did not disagree. You see, the CIA works based on the evidence while the FBI is forced to work with what can be proven in court.
But sure. The Intelligence agency for the United States is just grasping at straws
lol

5) "Yur a poo head and i don't even care what you say!"
Hahahahahah!
Weak.
But good call not not actually trying to spin those things as anything but frighteningly socially conservative.
Much easier to resort to name calling and tantrums

@UnparalleledMonster:

1) Nope, I'm being factual. You pretended to care about facts earlier.

2) Says the guy who's pretending to be in a position to understand the President-elects moves. Funny.

3) Apparently, you are that ignorant. It has been happening for years. What part of that do you not understand? Seriously, it makes zero sense that you can be that dense.

4) So you admit you lied in your initial assessment. Congrats. The truth shall set you free.

5) More evidence of your dishonesty. Good job.

@Sicarium:

Hmm. Didn't see much content there. Just insults falshoods.
Can't say i'm surprised,
But you've grown tedious.
Feel free to come back with more robust arguments if and when you find yourself equal to the task🙂

@UnparalleledMonster: Still lying I see. Oh well.
