The Obamaites/Hillaryites aren't a 'cult'? I you think Trump supporters are a 'cult' you don't know the definition, and by whatever definition you are using the Obamaites/Hillaryites are surely a cult too.

No, we just support the President because of his pro-America, agenda, which is something we haven't seen in years; certainly not from Obama, who was decidedly anti-american, and so is the entire Democrat Party.

Also noted, Wa-Po is no longer fake news to the cultists.[/quote]

Really? Because of one columnist's opinion (who probably contributes to other publications as well)? That does not mitigate the multiplicity of lies and false stories they have published in the past.

The sad truth is that Trump can win reelection and only a fool would not take that prospect seriously. Democrats need to bring their A game in 2020.

I would almost say it is in the bag. Michigan, Pennslyvania and Wisconsin are not going to come back easily, and the Dems are going in the wrong direction, doing everything they can to alienate whites.

Minnesota will be next.

States like Arizona and Nevada are going to see a fall off of thousands of illegal voters due to the fact that more are now going home than coming.

Florida, however, which was looking more solidly red, might turn purple again due to the influx of Puerto Ricans.

Still, I would say Trump has a pretty good hand.

So you assume that Trump is not going to have an entire field of Republicans willing to run against him in the Primary? He has to win THAT first. You see this time around he will have to deal with his record from the past 4 years.

My entire family were Bernie supporters, who voted for Hillary in the General. Also, anybody BUT Trump. Ever hear of the Ross Perot effect? By voting Third Party it would take away votes from Hillary and be an indirect vote for Trump.

Who is the most likely to win and beat the candidate who you dislike the most? Third Party candidate or the other Political Party candidate? I suppose you can correlate it to a chess game.

NOTHING would surprise me anymore. One thing his win taught me, never under estimate the ignorance and fear of white America. So yes, I could see him being re-elected, or worse yet, Pence becoming president. My only condolence is that I will retire soon after the next election and can get the hell out of here.

BTW, a lot of us disagree with the failure of leadership meme you libs like to throw around. You pretend that the GOP's failure to push through Obamacare light is a failure when many of us are content to watch it implode on it's own.
They are right for once.

Excellent assessment. I doubt FL turns though as , in all likelihood, % of newbies who vote is lower than state average, mitigating some affect. In addition, redder areas of Fl spike turnout partly to insure , despite the influx, their voices are heard.

In 11 months though, Dems have simply doubled down on what cost them wwc vote.

Be content with whatever it is we are getting now, a change will be forthcoming.
It's always amusing to hear from the "he has no path to victory" crowd. I would bet they are the same fools who, about 5 years ago, were cawing and caterwauling about the great blue wall.

It's not happening and you really shouldn't want it to happen because it's killing people. Get black lung disease then want to use Obamacare. Contradiction.
