@Ger Kelly: These people put their superstitions above everything else. Him being a pedo was a lesser evil than Jones being pro choice. F@#ked logic for a normal person but this is Alabama.

@Ger Kelly: a lot of god fearing, black hating, pedo lovers left.

@Ger Kelly: Yip…agree. V slim but important win. Worring how many voted moore

@Boo!: it’s Alabama, that is a very good win for a Democrat considering any Republican g ts a 20-30 point head start

@Joseph Murphy: I said the exact same thing.

I expect the implosion in 3…..2…..1……

@Dave O Keeffe:
Ha ha you never know! Time is against him.

@The Guru: wow that is depressing!!.

@Jonathan Byrne: must be Dublin, Kentucky then.

@Jonathan Byrne: Irish people also like Hollywood movies, Premier League Football and food from Italy. Weird isn’t it?

@Jonathan Byrne: you care enough to post.

@alphanautica: politics are different from movies sports and food, just thought I’d point that out to ya. Some people living in Ireland I guess think they are important enough that they feel like whatever Trump does will effect there day to day let that set in for a minute. Did you wake up everyday when Obama was president, an think, today is gonna be a good day, this is basically what your saying.

@Fiona deFreyne: do you think Hilary would have been detrimental to global affairs?

@Jonathan Byrne: You gave enough of a toss to have a whinge about it though

@bmul: it doesn’t really effect my day to day Life to be honest, life is good here easy to get a job cost of living is cheap. It’s maybe the fact I’m out for myself an wife , and I’m not so ego-centric that I believe my social media martyerdom is gonna save the world, your gonna bring down Mr big bad Trump on a social media site 3,000 miles from the USA good luck with that.

@WinSomeLoseSome: yeah I like a good oul laugh with this. I mean c’mon nobody can really take themselves seriously on a social media forum. Have ya seen the amount of political nonsense on the journal? I do like to throw an opinion out there, but that’s all it is.

@Fiona deFreyne: the problem with people who hate Trump is, they will believe in anything social media says, without proof, was your convicted yet, or does that matter now.? Social media= he’s guilty, real world= we’ll have to see, ya know that whole evidence thing an all.

@Jonathan Byrne: The butt-hurt is strong with this one…

@Cathal S Byrne: OMG Cathal I can’t believe you just mentioned Hilary!!! FFS man, cant you just be glad that this race turned out ok?

@Ted: Oklahoma City is where I live around the population as Dublin, lots of conservatives an this is gonna blow your mind, I Know you won’t believe this there’s also alot of liberal people as well, I mean what your saying is in every small town in the 4th largest country in the world, everybody is clueless, please tell me you see the iriony?

@Mitch Peterson: honestly I’m not that invested into politics well not through social media, I’m off work 2mo smoking a bit, it’s 3 in the morning an I’m getting a laugh at how people can become so politically irate over a social media forum, like there gonna change the world over there phone with what they have to say. It’s kinda of funny, lots of thumbs up for being liberal, congratulations, ghandi would be proud.

@Mitch Peterson: yeah man….my point wasn’t directed at you man.

@neilo: no comment away I think it’s funny, that how politically emotionally invested people get on a social media forum, telling the president of America how he should act , like it’s going to make a difference. There’s at least 20 articles a day about American politics , 90% of the comments are usually slagging trump, like somehow they’ve claimed a moral social media victory of the president of the USA. I’m pretty sure he doesn’t give a sh#t .

@neilo: haha you’re so emotional, I care about my wife, job, house. Ya know things that are everyday. I don’t have the ego-centricity to say something on a social media forum and take it so seriously and literal, that somehow what I say will make an impact, that’s delushional

@Jonathan Byrne: yes actually. But since the rise of the Tangerine Throne every straw is being grasped to affirm our sanity and hopes for the future. Any future actually.

@Cathal S Byrne: Well, mine was directed at you, man! I mean, to shoehorn Hilary into this article… just really pathetic stuff. Business must be really slow on Wednesdays. But, like I said, lets just be happy that Moore lost, that is something we can agree on!

@Jonathan Byrne: Well if you don’t even care, none of us should.

@Peter O’Connor: is that from a fictional show? I honestly don’t know, all I do know is using opaque quotations online means your very intellectual.

@Sean: hey I’m all about helping out others an what not in the local community, and seeing where it goes, Im just saying when there’s about 30 articles a day on American politics, on a social media forum. People aren’t really caring, they just think, Trump bad, must insult. Like somehow they’ve a moral victory, I mean what a waste of time.

@Jonathan Byrne: Because most people over here are idiots and they like what they are told to like

@Jonathan Byrne: its not even 5am, go back to bed, you’re drunk

@Dave O Keeffe: ahh yes let’s hear what the righteous one will say, gather around fellow social media people and let’s hear what lord Dave has to make of it, I’m sure your contribution in a comment section will pave the way for future generations of social media journal people to rebel and live in a utopian world, via the journal app.

@Jonathan Byrne: I’m not drunk , as I stated earlier I’ve smoked a bit and I’m getting a laugh at all the comments being emotionally nonsense , like how people make a joke about Trump being Mr badman. So they’ll post the typical know it all Trump an the Republican party are like this and there like that, blah blah blah , and yet somehow they are convinced they won a moral debate to an online forum that really nobody cares about. Talk about crazy.

@Mark Mcloughlin – do you ever tire of posting nothing

@Jonathan Byrne: i honestly couldn’t care less if you live in the States.So what if you do? It automatically doesn’t mean that you know wtf is going on around you.There are a fair few commenters on here that would tear you apart regards issues in America..You’re probably the guy that picked up an American accent after one hour..

@neilo: well women are more emotional than men, ehh I’m not on Breitbart, I don’t see the point, my wife runs a non-profit organization that helps with community development, so I help her out with that. That’s probably more than the average social media folk who comment on how things are negative, Trump is bad Republicans bad , go socialism ! It’s all nonsense, or ya could go out and do what you can for the local community. Me personally I’ll go with helping the community. I’m only doing this now cause I’m stoned and I’m getting a laugh, about how righteous some people act on the comment section like there the next ghandi or something. All from the comfort of there phone an probably don’t do anything for the local community.

@Francis Mc Carthy: na I’ve only been here 2 years , still very much so irish, and why would that make a difference? No but I work in retail an talk to alot of people on a daily basis an they share there opinions, and after the commenters tear me apart (on the journal no less) what happens?, I’ll be wrong, so what me being in wrong about something doesn’t change a thing,

@Peedur Dante: people have been fascinated with the president of the USA for years, have they not? In not saying you shouldn’t be interested , I’m just saying your not making any impact, haha it’s so funny how wound up ya get, that you have to slag my beard, should I be liberal and offended? Na ! Never trust anybody who tells ya what’s good and not good for on a social media forum, they just become obsessed with wanting ya to agree with them. And nobody learns anything.

@Peedur Dante: I’m sure you gave someone who doesn’t agree with ya much consideration, an what does it really matter, if you agree or not, social media forums isn’t gonna solve anything, it’s just a laugh, what’s even funnier is some people who get very angry on this with there opinion, and that’s all it is, think they know all the soci-political answers, that is so dilusional, ya can’t help but laugh.

@Peedur Dante: ohh you use stoner references, your very clever, you should be a comedian.

@Peedur Dante: discuss ideas? See I do that at local community fundraisers because it’s beneficial, discussing ideas on a social media forum is a waste of time, mock people? The comment section of American politics has been beating to death, with usually the same drivel from the same people. And nobody learns anything from biased anti president rhetoric, so that’s why I take the p#ss. I never said no people help out in the community I said some, yeah it makes me feel good to help out in the community, like it should make anybody feel good. Well I’m off for a little nap, in this great affordable city of Oklahoma, enjoy crying an insulting people who don’t agree with ya, hope it all works out well,

@Peedur Dante: well you just told to not smoke weed, an that your not a fan of beards, aren’t you telling me what not to be interested in? Yeah sounds like a contridictian .

@Peedur Dante: I thought it was the people that voted for him ? An that’s why he got elected. But you can go on about your Russian conspiracy theory

@Peedur Dante: a more honourable person? You’ve just insulted someone who doesn’t agree with ya, tell me again how’s that honourable again?

@Jonathan Byrne: sure. You just keep burying your head in the sand. Good boy

@Jonathan Byrne: god you are so tedious

@Peedur Dante: ok that sounds a little parinoid, who’s us? I’m having a laugh at everybody, and I want people to have a laugh back, what’s wrong with that? Don’t take the comments so personal. Jesus !

@Michael farrelly: ahh ok. Or I could get worked up about a president of a country , that will have no outcome on my day to day life. As I said I’m fully taking the pis# on this , because a couple of comments on this , is hardly impactul. Whatever your political opinion is.

@Peedur Dante: well I think your an idiot, so I guess the feeling is mutual, good look trying to get everyone to agree with ya.

@Michael farrelly: ok. Don’t take it personal I guess.

@Peedur Dante: he’s an NBA basketball player, called Steven Adams. An yeah he’s pretty well looking for a guy, but he also has alot of money to look well. Thought I’d give ya a little info on him, because I’m sure you haven’t a clue about sports in the USA. It sounds like you need a bit of psychotherapy.

@Jonathan Byrne: an yes I am small to him, that’s because he’s 7 foot 2 inches, alot of people are small in comparison to him.

@Peedur Dante: well you just did, all you’ve really done is comment oh how I look in the picture, for the most part. Which is kinda creepy, an a little psychotic. Did you ever think the reason you get so wound up on this sort of discussion on social media, is because your probably the one that needs help.?

@Peedur Dante: yeah I couldn’t sleep, some nights go like that, an I’ve the day off work today. Well I’m insulting ya on your political opinion an your insulting me in a how I look one. If you can’t see the difference then well ya need help. An I’ve only been really taking the pis# out of you for the most part. ” Doing drugs all night” ehh so fu#king what, I can do what I want.

@Peedur Dante: yeh Kool, peace ou !

@Jonathan Byrne: I was referring to the Irish people and more specific the people that comment here on the journal

@Jonathan Byrne: so you voted for him!

@Casper: your asking the people who comment on an Irish social media forum, to stand against what exactly? I’m sure you’ll make a difference on the journal, pffft, insanity.

@Jonathan Byrne: read both my comments again where does it say I am asking people to stand against something, it doesn’t, I am only expressing my opinion yes it’s my opinion and I am entitled to it now get lost or else find someone else to have a little argument with lol

@Deborah Behan: well I’m Irish, so what do you think?

@Casper: lol, really? totally crushed any meaning in your over the top emotional burst of stating the obvious that you have an opinion. Your opinion on a social media forum an my opinion doesn’t mean sh#t that’s why you take these articles as a joke. As I said how articles are there on American politics on a daily basis, you think the american Senate go ya know let’s go to the journal app an see where we should lead the USA.

@Jonathan Byrne: have a nice day young man

@Casper: your opinion was very articulate and knowledgeable , thank you.

@neil what are doing it’s 1 in the afternoon, ya gotta be on the dole.

@Jonathan Byrne: people who work get lunch breaks..they typically take them around 1pm in the afternoon…

@Del Bear: well he was comment alot longer than a hour

@neilo: ha that was good :)

@Thought for Food: What strikes me is that you think Donald Trump is worthy of your loyalty. If you “idiots” think you’re standing up for decency and morality in society, you are wrong.

@Thought for Food:

There was more than enough evidence to disqualify Moore as a suitable candidate for election, including the fact that he was banned from a mall for bothering teenage girls.

And you’re right, he has not been tried, convicted and or sentenced in a court of law – he has simply lost an election.

In reality, the RNC are doing a happy dance abou this.

@Thought for Food: What strikes me is that your first thought is to protect the abuser. Why is that I wonder?

@Thought for Food: This man has been removed from his job as a judge twice. On one occasion the entire bench of the Alabama Supreme Court called him a liar, that is as good as any conviction as far as I’m concerned – along with the fact that he was rejected by the majority of Alabama voters.

@Thought for Food: he lost. Get over it snowflake. Or paste in what ever was said to Hillary’s supporters after she lost.

@Thought for Food: He admitted ‘dating’ 14 year old, but he said it was OK because the childs mother consented on their behalf apparently. I don’t see anyone acting here like he has been convicted. He did not get elected to the senate because democracy is a popularity contest and creeps who ‘date’ children when they are in their 30′s are not very popular.

If you ‘conservatives’ think you’re standing up for tradition and christian values in society, explain voting for an adult male who admits trying to ‘date’ children.

@Thought for Food: you’ve gone very quiet. Does the avalanche of sensible answers overwhelm your redneck neo con viewpoint ?

@Thought for Food: You REALLY have your head up your hole.
