How is Trump not beholden to the rich? Just look at his cabinet. You can argue he wasn't beholden on the campaign trail, which is perfectly debatable, but his actions as President suggest otherwise.
The point is that both Trump and his opponent are beholden to the rich. You are seriously naive if you think otherwise. I sure hope you don't vote based on your completely unfounded perception that Clinton is any different than Trump when it comes to this issue.

I was hoping that Trump would make a statement on Citizens United and all the money in politics, this bill has donor class written all over it. Mitch McConnell admitted they needed to pass something for their donors or forget about campaign contributions.
I can't think of any other way to explain why Trump is still so popular among his base. A lot of people I know who voted for Trump aren't particularly satisfied with everything he's done, they just prefer him on his worst day to a Democrat. They will continue to support Trump like their high school or college football team during a bad season because after all, he is their guy, warts and all. Would you say this is the case among the people who still support Trump? Do you actually think the guy is honest and is doing a good job or do you just think he's better than a liberal?
It's a good question, but I'm not too sure.
Apparently, there are quite a few people who switched from Democrat Bernie Sanders to Trump. It mystifies me, but I suppose they both attracted people whose attention is caught by shiny new things.

Even Dems donors agree with that idea as they cut off donations to the losers who have no policy's and only run on hate.
I have voted for a few Democrats in the past, but now they all seem too far left and crazy for my taste. Even JFK wouldn't be accepted by today's Democrats.
And Nixon wouldn't be accepted by today's Republicans.

It's ok to disagree with the president. But as you said, if you stand right, there is no way we can support an extreme leftist party like Democrats are today.
Just as I didn't like Obama's policies (at all) but yes, he was personable, I like Trumps policies even though he says things that ugh. When given the choice I'll vote for the man who's policies I agree with over a smooth talking politician who's policies I can't agree with.
Also note that every time the left screams Armageddon and Russia, you are not looking too sane yourselves.
That's a lie. The polls weren't that far off and Hillary did win the popular vote. I am sure you knew that though. The only thing that didn't go as planned on election night was the Rust Belt, which Trump only won by a razor-thin margin.
Crooked hillary got her fat, ugly azz handed to her by the man who is in the process of saving America and making it great again after eight years of an America hating Muslin doing his very best to destroy America.
If you love America you should thank God every day Trump kicked the crooks butt..
If you don't love America, keep ragging on Trump...
You can keep your doctor.
You can keep your health care plan,
Health care premiums will go down significantly!
Benghazi was about a video.
There is zero corruption in the IRS.
There are shovel ready jobs!

I believe you hit the nail on the head. He was elected into office by the anyone but hillary crowd. They like it that he doesn't take crap from anyone. Shame they don't look at policy though. It's always about policy.
