I don't think I would vote have voted or will vote for Mrs. Clinton, either.

I sincerely hope she runs again, but her own party even hates her now, so I doubt she will get the nomination.

You have Trump regret. How many people share your same opinion? Let's do the math. Trump had about 63 million votes, representing 46% of the total vote of 132 million. If we average all of the current polls his approval rating is about 40%, which means he has lost about 6% of support. That works out to nearly 8 million voters who regret their vote.

It means you have lots of good company. It also means that Donald Trump's chances of reelection are very slim.



If the economy is doing good, and we get some real results from the NK/SK peace summit, Trump will win pretty easily against whatever the Dems can drudge up at this point. Kamala Harris? LMAO. Add in some substantial illegal immigration progress, and it wont be near as difficult as the Dems hope.


People vote with their pocketbooks and their personal feeling of security. Having positives on the illegal front and the NK front, with a good economy, and get used to 4 more years of chaos.

Nope

Trump's not a saint but that's not why you vote for president.

Given the alternative - Hillary Crooked Clinton --- it was a no brainer.

Ironically, I still side with some of his points, like the immigration issue. Of course, how one addresses the illegal immigration issue is another issue. So, do you regret voting for Trump?

Thanks for your apology.

I regret NOT voting for Trump! I believed all the lies in the media and how it would be the end of the world if he got elected. I won't make that mistake twice.

I have no regrets at all. I would do it over and over again given his performance in the last year. I didn't vote for him because I liked his personality. He's often abrasive, but he's getting the job done he was elected to do.
If I wanted a nice guy that doesn't offend anyone but can't get the job done, I'd vote for Jimmy Carter, and I wouldn't vote for Hillary Clinton if my life depended on it, ever.

The polls already have the good economy baked in. Trump was around 35% and the tax cut/economy gave him a bump up to about the 40% level. He's been stuck at 40% for months, it appears to be his ceiling.
Click here for the chart.

This is pure math, not spin: Trump lost the popular vote by 3 million. He won the Electoral College by the thinnest of margins, just 100,000 votes scattered across three states (Penn, Mich, Wisc). He won by a statistical fluke. His ratings have fallen in all three of those states, even with the good news you mentioned.

I think there's a better than 50% chance Trump is not on the 2020 ballot.
