Republicans are SO classy! They ***** about how the Dems are, but conduct themselves with the dignity of a boozed up teenager! Must reflect their voter base. If they don't get their way-pout. Anyone else does it they get on their high horses, but when they do it, it's cool! Truly a cowardly bunch.

The simple reality is the republicans in the congress will by and large cave like the French in WW2.
Those Republicans in Congress will know better than to obstruct things the way they've been doing. If they continued holding the nation hostage, they would lose big in two years. Only by working with the President to a reasonable degree, will they avoid losing their majority in the next election. If they put their country first, their party can survive. If they don't, things will be bad for everyone.

why don't you go out and tell that to the face of someone instead of posting anonymously on a message board. then get their true opinion first-hand. my guess is the first hand you would get would be a fist.

I have decided that if Trump loses, I will never vote again, because I now realize it is all a game and it doesn't matter which party wins. After seeing the republican elite vote to put a career criminal in office over someone who will make changes and derail their gravy train, I see it's a waste of time to vote, the whole system is rigged.
A number of republican i have voted for in the past refused to support the republican candidate, and instead put their support behind crooked hillary. We little guys are powerless to change anything, it's all a game and we are the losers.
Do you think politicians continue to run for office well into their 80's and 90's do so because they care about us? The benefits are too good to give up until you die of old age..
I believe there are millions of Trump supports who feel the same way and will leave the party. Either a new party that is really for the people will be formed, or it will become a one party system and soon after, a thrid world country.

I never did understand this question. They asked it to Trump in a debate regarding if he'd "accept" the results.

What are they expecting one to do if they don't "accept the outcome"?

We'll all just live like we are now, but I'll sit back as things continue to downward spiral and at least have peace of mind that I didn't vote for her.

You have a thread with the question whether Trump supporters will accept Hillary stealing the election, and you want to ***** and talk crap about Trump supporters? How about this, every single US citizen should be pissed if Hillary or anybody else steals our elections.

We should be pissed at idiots that see conspiracy theories at every little thing that doesn't go their way. We should be pissed at people that propagate McCarthy-ism like strategy to take down people they don't like. We should be pissed at people that want to stone wall anything and everything because they have no policy ideas of their own.
