To me; I see no reason to look back. The Democrats do not support America. They have no candidates with any positive message for the taxpayers and voters.
My wife has voted (R) in every singe election since she turn 18. Her first election was in 1984. She vote for Stein.

So I guess she wasted a vote, when she could have voted for Clinton. Anyone who has voted Republican for 30 plus years and switched to vote for Stein isn't making any sense. That would be like saying someone supported Bernie Sanders and will vote for Pence next time if he is the candidate.

A vote for Clinton or Trump was a wasted vote.

My honest opinion is that you should take all person views on other people with a grain of salt.

Some people here claim they have tones of black friends who all vote Republican. Some claim every soldier they know is a Democrat.

Some people claim they are doctors and small business owners and so on and so forth.

I hope she didn't send Jill Stein some money for that silly recount nonsense. Though I do believe they discovered that voting on that Democrat plantation of Detroit was crooked.

Jill ended up with $4M or so once that was said & done. Still no word on what happened to that money.

A have a serious question - since you are someone that flipped and maybe are also someone that could flip back: What is your take on Trump's line of "MSM is Fake News" and how he is handling Russia, the Mueller investigation, North Korea and Iran?

Do you agree with how the President is handling these things? And before you vote for Obama, who did you support in earlier elections?

It won't matter even if Kim Kardashian runs for the Dems. None of the candidates will have any kind of a chance. Not against a robust economy.
