Logically, even if your so-so on the guy, there may be someone better to vote for.

I tell you this much, I still suspect a STRONG republican challenge in the primaries against him in 2020.

If so, I'll probably have to change my registration to Republican so I can vote against him....because my state is so republican the final vote never matters.
Hard to challenge a guy where his approval ratings are solid. Poor, poor liberals

BUMPS IN THE ROAD: Bad relations with and a tariff war with China. North Korea sending a missile to Hawaii? The stock market declining like it did today with the Dow at 570 and possibly staying there, affecting many who have 401K’s and the retirement income of lots of folks. And the unease that having such a volatile President causes to the rest of us.

We had a four to one trade imbalance with China before Trump announced his candidacy.

Clinton, Bush and Obama all kicked the North Korea can down the road.

The Dow is up 3,274 over the year and 4,105 since Trump took office.

The stock market is currently growing at more than three times the rate for Obama's second term.

In fact, it really only started taking off after Trump won the 2016 election.

Where were you when it was Obama's trade deficit, Obama's North Korea problem and Obama's flat-lining stock market?

They can't run a Connor Lamb in every race, so Democrats will continue to lose elections.

What do you mean continue to lose. Democrats are winning elections that they shouldn't win...in red states. Trump is toxic for our country and the world. He is unpredictable and erratic. He makes decisions based on his mood.

Time will tell.
progressing =
normalization of drug use?
marginalization of religion?
redistribution of wealth?
normalization of homosexuality?
gender unification?
wide open borders?

Maybe you should start considering that most of America doesn't agree with what you call "progress" and then maybe you'll start getting somewhere

The Democratic Party is pulling itself in two different directions.

FWIW Lamb ran AGAINST the tax cuts in a heavily Republican district and he won.
