No one cares about North Korea....that was something that was dealt with between the Koreans anyway. The economy was good when Trump was elected, which says he was not elected on that issue. What makes the public weary are fake politicians who give lip service and little else; many at least took a chance that Trump the jerk was authentic, which it turns out he wasn't. What the public really wants is a leader who not only says they care, but proves it. Not someone who says "I will fight for you Flint" and never comes back when they lose the election (hi Hillary). Basically they want someone like Bernie Sanders, lol.

Bernie would have won......the (D)'s still have not figured out why and that is why someone as bad as Trump is may very well win again.
This is NOT true.
North Korea having nukes was creating a lot of instability in Northeast Asia and it might have eventually led to Japan and possibly South Korea one day also having nuclear weapons. And with Japan and China and also Japan and Russia having territorial conflicts, the situation could have gotten out of control.
Just because we do not live on the Korean peninsula or in Northeast Asia does not mean the situation is unimportant.
The liberal elites already chose Hillary as the Democratic candidate so there was no way Bernie had a chance. It's unbelievable that Bernie supporters still don't get their vote didn't matter.
I was speaking about the general. Sanders would have won.
The problem Trump will have is the same one that drew criticism of Obama, Bush and Clinton. The gains in employment are not spread equally across states. And the unemployment numbers don't adequately reflect underemployment, jobs that that holding on by a thread, or folks who fall off the rolls.
People like myself understand that is because everything we did was done for the top few percent. We bent over and took care of Wall Street while ignoring Main Street.
Now, will Trump do the same? Absolutely but unless the (D)'s nominate someone other than another Corporatist, I'm not going to vote for them just because Trump is one.

True, but their party was the incumbent. Similar situations.
