The evidence doesnt support this either.

In states where Republicans can cross the party line and vote for whatever candidate they wanted, Sanders still lost, by HUGE margins..

Alabama for example went 77.8% Clinton, 19.2% Sanders

He was the guy you wanted. Hillary didn't force you to vote for Trump. Own it.
I do own it, and proudly, as Trump continues to lead the world. His speech in Seoul was excellent (not jut my opinion, but also the opinion of Ambassador Bolton). He gave assurance to not only South Korea, but also to the entire region, that America was ready to do whatever is necessary to defend them. It was "Reaganesque" according to Amb. Bolton, and I agree.

Trump's tax plan is a great step to renewing American prosperity (if the Senate Republicans don't torpedo it, which they may do).

Trump is tough on immigration (and illegal migrants), which is what we voted for. We cannot and should not continue to let thousands of immigrants, who are no benefit to our economy, and whom we cannot vet, enter this country (New York terrorist as an example). That program must end.

Those who criticize Trump do so out of ignorance and pure hate.

As for him not getting any "promises" done, cant we argue that Congress is a roadblock given thats where laws are written, while you guys whine about how his EO's are destroying the nation?

But it is HIS CONGRESS ! The GOP controls it all, and if his own team can not support the things he is trying to accomplish, that should tell you something. The man is such an ass that he can't even get his own side to warm up to him and his "ideas".

Obama had the GOP to overcome, and he still got things done. Trump only has Melania and Ivanka on his side, everyone else refuses to go along with him.

Not the situation at all. Seriously if someone that support Trump is a "Trumpee", imagine what kind of nickname someone would have that supported Clinton? It seems juvenile to keep the name calling going, but I understand your envy of us and the embarrassment you felt when Trump kicked your candidate to the curb.

ICE: Immigration Arrests Up Nearly 40% Under Donald Trump Immigration arrest up almost 40%

ICE arrests under Trump jump 40 percent as border crossings drop | Fox News

Consumer confidence explodes to a 13-year high - Business Insider Consumer confidence at a 13 year high.

I know that CNN (owned by Time-Warner who donated over $800,000 to try to get Clinton elected) does carry these articles, but sourgrapes can get in the way of being "balanced".

Most of us that voted for Trump knew he had a hard road ahead. Congress people are SO corrupt and spoonfed how they should vote by lobbyists, not to mention that many would like to see Trump removed so that the religious right, Pence, would step in to the POTUS slot. Trying to rip the government from a few corrupt with power behind them is not going to be an easy job, Trump continues to need the support of those Americans who believe that the government should be a government for the people and by the people.

Obama was anti-American and worked very hard to try to destroy our country. He insulted our citizens many time when he addressed the world. He was an evil force that could only have been matched had Hillary been elected. Let him fade into history, and take his sidekick Hillary with him.

This.. Democrats just a few short years ago opposed illegal immigrants, voted for a wall, etc but now that Trump took the same position, they needed to justify their hate by shouting RACISM...

tRump is nothing if not a juvenile name caller.

Lol. All these conservatives trying to distance themselves from Trump supporters. Trump didn't win the primaries because Democrats voted for him.
