That is, as you said, it's worth doing it twice, which implies that it was already tried, and failed, so now we need to do it again.

Let us repeat again: Saying "Keep America Great Again" makes absolutely no logical or grammatical sense whatsoever. You do not "keep" something "again." You can do something again, and you can "Make America Greater," or maybe "Make America Even Greater," but it makes no sense to say you're going to "keep" something "again." The fact you keep repeating this indicates you don't care if you make yourself look a bit on the illiterate side of things, which is exactly what you're doing.

I already know Russia hacked the election - there is already plenty of evidence on that. The open question is whether or not the Trump campaign was directly involved with it.

There is zero evidence that non-citizens voted.

And the last time I checked, CA and NY were still part of the United States so I have no idea what you think your comment is supposed to demonstrate. We all know that the President is not elected by popular vote. It remains a factual statement that Trump lost the popular vote by about 3 million votes.

well glad you think so, just don't start celebrating. Do you think this means the Dems are going to take over both houses? Actually it is likely the GOP will do better than you might think. Will the Dems gain some seats? Most likely yes. If you know anything about the system you would know, normally in the off year election the office in power loses seats.

Trumplings are funny to watch aren't they? They're oblivious to the fact that the rest of the world is laughing at them.

Two more bad polls for republicans today. Both Brown & Cordray are up by numbers outside the error of margin on the latest Suffolk poll. These are the big two statewide races this year, if the Dems win the governor's race then they will hold a key spot on redistricting in 2020.

Ohio Senate - Renacci vs. Brown Suffolk Brown 53, Renacci 37 Brown +16
Ohio Governor - DeWine vs. Cordray Suffolk Cordray 43, DeWine 36 Cordray +7

Trump's approval rating also dropped below 40%..
