Clinton Throws Thank You Party For Millionaire Donors As Trump Resumes "Thank You" Tour

For a vivid glimpse in the philosophies of the two presidential candidates, look no further than what the two have done after winning, in the case of Trump, and losing, in Hillary's case, the election.

Following several meetings at the Trump Tower, the President-elect resumed his “thank you” tour with a second stop on Tuesday night in North Carolina, less than a week after his return to rallies at an Ohio appearance.

At that Cincinnati stop, Trump again slammed the “dishonest” media, inspired loud “Build the wall” chants, and took swipes at fellow Republicans and stunned his own aides with his surprise announcement from the stage that that he was appointing retired Gen. James Mattis as secretary of defense. Mattis’ selection was being formally announced Tuesday, and Mattis will appear with Trump at the evening event in Fayetteville, Vice President-elect Mike Pence said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”

Later this week there will be rallies in Iowa and Michigan as Trump barnstorms the country to salute his supporters who delivered the victories in the battleground states he needed to capture the White House.

The North Carolina rally comes a day after Trump chose retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson to be secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, raising fresh concerns about the lack of experience some of Trump’s Cabinet picks have with agencies they’re now being chosen to lead.
