Trump's inauguration speech was chock full of them, loved it.
Enjoyed the speech, especially the focus on we the people.
Cue radical alt-Left-government-media-complex and SJW snowflake heads exploding in 3...2...1

I wonder if those trigger words include:
Personal responsibility
Work ethic
Honesty
Respect
-
All the focus on the little people is exactly what traditional Democrats were all about. If the left weren't hypocrites, they should love Trump. But today's leftists don't care about little people, they just care about staying in power.

I noticed the Dems behind him, notably the O's, were not looking happy during the speech.

I was working during the majority of the speech, and got a break when it was almost over. I only got to watch the end of the speech, when Obama shook Trump's hand and said "Good Job."
A true class act.
I did read the speech while on break. Trump makes a few good points, though I'm surprised any conservatives stand by it. He won't accomplish any of those things without some (sometimes major) form of government intervention.

You may be surprised about how many conservatives believe in those points, but failed to admit it out of fear of being called a RINO.
Labels suck. And radicals live on both sides of the Bell Curve. And the radicals generally have the loudest voices.

I think conservatives understand the difference between intervention (to repair O damage and neglect) and invasiveness (vote farming, imposing mandates, strangling freedoms, etc.). It may even be that Trump can easily justify certain expenditures as needed for recovery in the areas O ignored.

Yeah, he sounds like a protectionist Democrat when talking about bringing back jobs. He IS the guy for the blue collar working man now. He took it from the Dems because the Dems forsook them and now focus on gays and illegals and Muslim refugees and animals and trees and "the planet", anything BUT the ordinary working American citizen.
The good points you agree with might be the same ones I do, that it's time to return control of the country to the people rather than the wealthy and powerful elite class. This election wasn't about liberals vs conservatives. It's about us the people vs a governing class that has become completely out of touch with us, on both sides.
Agree about Obama and Michelle during the transition. Apparently they've been gracious to the incoming couple. But we all need to remember, Trump is NOT a conservative. He's been on the liberal side of some issues before and supported some liberals, he can befriend liberals and work with them, so I'm not surprised there seems to be some warmth there. Not saying he won't follow through with his conservative promises to lower taxes and reduce regulations, and build a wall and build back the military, but I think he can cross over on many other things more easily than say Cruz would have, which is what earned him the hate of some Republicans.
I'm still cautiously optimistic.

Rush, I am cautiously optimistic also. I am NOT a Trump fan. I like his kids, and Pence much more. I have been called names on this forum because of my Libertarian, and Conservative beliefs. I do think Trump will be better than Obama who was a divider, and America hater.

Or a racist.
