If the other major party had nominated someone other than Hillary, he probably wouldn’t be there .

I was waiting for a right winger to bring this up.

It's obviously apparent that Trump has no talent to speak even WITH a teleprompter. He sounds like a 3rd grader.

Obama LIED. He also must have hated America, because you don't want to Fundamentally Transform something you like, do you? Hillary would have been even worse. The country, and our leadership is much better under Trump.
Stories are so much better than statistics and charts - which show health care spending leveled off (didn't grow as quickly) and 15+ MILLION more people were insured.

ME ME ME is so much better.

If your insurance went up it's because your "welfare" was less...unless you are going to tell us that you spend over 10K per person per year (the average cost of heath care in the USA currently 10.8K each)....

So, if a family of 4 isn't paying 40K+, the government and taxpayers and future generations are picking up the tab - PERIOD. I can see what it might be upsetting for the government to only pick up 1/2 your tab instead of 3/4 of it, but not so if you are someone who yaps about welfare and entitlements.

The problem is the Capitalist Health Care system....predatory. ACA was just to get more people covered and to somewhat standardize (prevention, not allowing junk policies to be sold).....the cost curve is an entire other issue, one completely ignored by Republicans (double digit increases and people dropped from the roles during GWB)....

Sadly history might repeat itself. Get somebody or he will win re election. Defeating an incumbent is not that easy. But He's got another year and a half of his ineptness to change peoples minds. His degree of senility seems to be getting worse.

Can you imagine an Obama stuttering speech.....

I,I,I,I,I,I ,uh,uh, I,I

Without his teleprompter he was a complete idiot. Trump at least wings it 98% of the time accurately.

One of the things that endeared him to fans....his famous ‘malapropisms’.

One of his famous malapropisms was ‘Nobody goes there anymore, it’s too crowded’.

Mostly he had a cool name. But we are all showing our age. Wasn't it a chocolate drink also?

"In the 1960s, an advertising campaign tried to appeal to an older public for the drink, and featured Yogi Berra and his New York Yankees teammates. Berra, in a pin-striped business suit, drinks a bottle of Yoo-hoo, lifts it next to his cheek, and says with a smile, "It's Me-He for Yoo-Hoo!""

And Obama trolled Trump....generally more successfully I might add.
