First of all, of course I agree with Mr. Cotton that the mass media, in this country and elsewhere, will do everything they can to slam Mr. Trump before he even gets rolling. They've lied, and lied, and lied to us all for untold years now, they certainly aren't going to stop anytime soon. So, I don't believe anything they say that isn't a direct quote from Mr. Trump, or I don't hear him say myself in a video of him speaking, or relayed to us by someone directly working for him and authorized to speak for him.
Second thing, I am 100% convinced that anything Mr. Trump will do will not be remotely as bad for me and mine as what Hillary would have done in that office. She hates "the common folk" of this country, of all races, colors and creeds, and only "cares" about the ones she could use to gain more power and wealth. She despises the right to self-defense, and regular folks having the means to successfully do so. Mr. Trump has indicated the exact opposite, and so far, I have no reason to not believe him.
And finally, like the rest of you, I have had to put up with almost eight long years of being talked down to and bad-mouthed by a left-wing Democrat POTUS. Mr. Trump doesn't do that, and that difference is almost worth it all by itself.
There is nothing being generated by MSM that I believe. They are still trying to get over their slap in the face by the American public, and will never admit they were wrong. Trump will never advertise to the media his plans, or changes thereto. The media is falling all over itself trying to figure out who Trump is putting in his Cabinet, transition team, advisory roles, etc.. But there is nothing coming directly from Trump.
I am also taking a wait and see attitude, change comes slowly, and there is 8 years of debauchery to the country, it's values, and the Constitution that have to be rectified. There will also be pushback from the Democratic members of Congress, that could delay things.
The press is limping around trying to play catch up, and look more and more like the spoiled children that they are, so I say turn off the news, go shoot at the range, hug your kids, hoist a cold one in celebration, and allow the process to play out. JMHO.
