Or would some of you accept that Trump was an "accident" and not good for the GOP and/or USA in a general sense?

I'm just wondering...and it's a big IF.

We saw how the Tea Party instantly disappeared and GOP stopped being fiscally responsible at all...due to the Trump election.

So will any particular issues like that change into the opposite direction? Or, will Trumpism continue in the form of no free trade, no care about fiscal matters (except for tax cuts), etc.????

It's interesting to game out....maybe companies like Fox are starting to think the same way? What are they going to do is he is destroyed fair and square?

It will be interesting to see...and it does have some chance of happening (so does every other scenario)....as his disapproval spread is continuing and is at 12 points (aggregate) now.

I'm all in with democrat frontrunning superhero Joe Biden , and he will win .
But since 3030 is still a ways off I am going to take a wait and see position .

BIDEN 3030 !

note that the headline in the NYT's claiming Trump lost by a landslide was printed a week before the rigged election.

So, what happens if we continue not stopping illegal immigration, continue growing government more and continue raising taxes?

Not too much difference than now, so I guess I won't be crushed, just disappointed at how naive so many people can be.

At some point, you just look after your own interests and don't worry about the rest. It's hard to be concerned about your neighbors if they are fixated on driving off the cliff. When Rome gets sacked, you don't have to be in the city.

Check out the Kingdom of Soissons sometime, sometimes cultures can take a lot of killing.

I was no fan of Obama's but I didn't accuse anyone of cheating . I didn't threaten to leave the country just because. News flash I can oppose a president's ideology and policies without crying no fair. The dems have done this at least a couple of times.
Your entire side runs on cheating.. Trump thinks millions of votes went for Hillary just recently on twitter and claimed they should have gone for him.. All while he won the election.. And he's posting about this in 2019 when the election was in 2016!

Your side always talks about how dead people are voting for D's also and how illegals are voting for them.. the hypocrisy is too much

Trumpers? What's that? Can you not speak like a 12 year old little girl, OP?

Well, Trump supporters certainly wouldn't act like the MEDIA, Democrats (same thing), Social Media, Google, Facebook, etc have.

She did win by around 3 million votes but the electoral college decided to put him in the white house. Imagine if the white house ended up putting a democrat in the white house even if they lost to a republican.

Funny how people actually think it makes a difference who is (s)elected as President.

I'm guessing most people won't care. I can't speak for Trump supporters, but I'm not batpoop insane like liberals. I won't begin marching and pouting like a 6 year old. It doesn't matter who is in office and the house and Senate will flip in a couple of years just like when Barry da bomber was elected. And honestly, it won't happen. The Democrats are so insane, that even their supporters aren't taking them seriously anymore.
