It reminds me of Obama these days. i.e. yapping poodle.
Oh, there's plenty of hell that can be raised yet.

No power left? We don't need Democrats to be in power in order to be heard. Ask Reagan or both Bush's if you don't believe it.

Don't let Trump gas your head up into thinking that some new rules are coming regarding this relationship. It ain't happening. We aren't our ancestors. Those days are over, and you conservatives aren't gonna bring them back.

Better address that to the Republican Party.

Im from nyc and I know Trump. I know folks who worked and use to work for him. Trump is usually all talk and action. This is thr sad part that most Americans who voted for him don't know. Any way, Trump needs to be held accountable for statements he made. Trump said he is going to build a wall, and how Mexico is going to pay for it, than let's see it hot shot. He said he was going to bring back factory jobs to the rust belt, let's see it. Trump said he is going to help out black America, than let's see it.

I would agree with you that Trump should be held accountable for the things he promised, but in order to do that he deserves the opportunity to put his plans into action. You can't say you'll hold him accountable if you stand in the way of progress.

And by the same token, why don't you hold Obama & Co. accountable for his failures in the last eight years? His entire tenure has been a lot less than he promised, to say the least, and people looked the other way.

Keep up the liberal attacks by Pelosi. More votes for Republicans as liberals continue to alienate potential democrat voters. More governorships list, more state house losses. Failing liberal policies.

So when Trump takes them over his knee and spanks them they'll pretend to struggle and hate it?

I don't care about politics. I care about my people.

Like I said, don't let Trump gas you up.

Sounds like yapping poodles to me.

And do you think that do nothing politicians like Jim Clyburn elected from a district gerrymandered specifically to elect a Black person is going to do anything difficult or hard? Think again. He's got his. Apparently you don't because you support politicians like him.

Democrats have no power.

I'm not standing in his way of nothing. HE can do whatever he feels, and will gain my support. Look the elections are over. We have to put aside our differences and move on. If it makes you feel any better, I did not vote for Hillary either. I also hold Obama for lots of failures in his 8 years as stewardship of the POTUS.
