Trump won the election. He isn't winning anymore.

Exactly. The right thinks I don't care if I continue to suffer, but if I can make those liberals in the cities suffer it's a huge WIN.

ageed. Obama is looking better everyday Chump is in office. Even Bush looks better, sure he two massive mistakes, but it least he was not spreading hate internally. I even voted for bush.

It amazes me a lot of you voted for Trump just to see liberal's heads spin. Who cares about policies and the betterment of the country as long as liberals are angry and crying.
FYI, I voted democrat more than republican in the past.

The system is messed up. The Dems need to get their act together. As they said, they need some serious soul searching after last November. Instead, they double down on the old guards like Warren. Wrong move to get the next generation of voters.

Trump couldn't cure ham, let alone cancer.
Trump is a moron.
On the other hand he IS smarter than the deplorables who voted for him - which isn't saying much.

Trump is doing just fine. Of course, you're an OFA volunteer, right? As for your comment about Trump being stupid, he is by no means stupid. Look where he is. Did he get there because he is stupid? Oh, wait ...stupid "rural" Americans put him there, right?

Did you vote for Obama ...twice? Who's stupid?

I consider people like you as "enemies of the State." You are anti-American.
Trump got where he is because he's blatantly dishonest and simply told idiot voters what they wanted to hear.

The 2 party system needs to be broken, period. We have more choice for diet soda than we do a person to represent the populace.

Exactly. He pandered to the lowest common denominator, used fear and scare tactics to appeal to people's emotions and some folks really bought into it, hook line and sinker.

With the Democrats involved, all those extreme obstructionist elements can be kicked to the curb.

With the exception of Mitch McConnell, and without Trump, I believe the majority would work fine with the Dems.
