3 million votes... you can use it, control it, and play with it... it won't help when Trump creates the policices that will end you... The Democratic Party survives by keeping the status quo which creates more victims for the Democratic Party... the status quo is ending... you are ending,,, the Democratic Party is ending... I am smart enough to know which brick to knock down... Trump has a dozen people like me... you are done for...

Wow, no matter how the media spins it, Democrats have become a localized party. Elitism and progressivism has been rejected. Maybe you should wake up to that fact.

Nor were they as anti-white, anti-Christian, anti-western civilization, and blame America first as they are now.

Thanks for posting.

It's an excellent example of the OP.

And how could we be brainwashed by the media? We are not listening to the media or, I should say, we don't believe the media.

I do not want to talk for WaldoKitty. But we were both Democrats and, on our own and in our own time, we saw what was happening with the Party. Pay for Play isn't my cup of tea. Me and my wife are not fans of traditional Republicans. Heck; I am an atheist and do worry about a government that is too religious. But I used to travel 100,000 miles each year as a commercial truck driver. I have seen what these trade deals, the outsourcing, the legal and illegal immigration, have done to our Nation. This isn't a complaint simply against the Democrats; many Republicans are just as guilty.

Hillary spent over $1.2 billion trying to get elected. Of course that kind of money bought votes. Does that mean the Party is STRONG and VIABLE; I don't think so. I would say that it was a very bad investment!

In this election Trump was the only way to break the chains of the establishment. So far it looks like he will start on the right path.

Unfortunately probably the same ones that Hillary's would have.

There is a reason large companies have not relocated to appalachia.

Next?
