You don't actually think anyone is going to take this statement seriously do you?

Huge difference.

(the community agitator was way way way out of his league. the destruction of the Democrat party is proof of this)
You say that like the moron you put in office is somehow "in" his league. You must think that all the other, you know, actual politicians are as stupid as Trump.

And women. Hence his attacks on Clinton, Merkel, and the San Juan mayor.

Wrong again burdell.
Quit pretending everyone in NC voted for that mouth-breather.

He barely won the state.

Good grief. We don't all like him as much as you do.

Or at all, for that matter.

The size of the protests against him here are evidence of that. And, no... nobody has paid anyone I know to attend a protest.

It is very obvious that Trump has one mission with all these EO's, to remove any trace of Obama. Trump is a vindictive, vile little man, with an immature ego, and he does all these little acts just to show Obama he is now in the WH.

But, when it comes to all the important things he promised his voters, he hasn't accomplished ONE of them.
fully agree with you that Trumps mission is to remove any trace of Obama. what you don't understand is that's exactly what the republican voter was demanding of ANY republican nominee. Jeb Bush and the mods didn't get even the slightest traction because Republican voters didn't think that pack would in fact, EO Obama out of the books. This was a battle between the guy that would out Obama and destroy the republican insiders comfy house (Trump) and the guy that would out Obama (Cruz).


in the end, the republican voter got the guy that would do both of their main agenda items. period.

Why something so simple seems to be lost on the left is beyond me.

As much as a lot of republican voters do not like liberalism or what they see being done to the culture by progressives, they dislike, distrust, and flat loath the cowards in the party that have promised and promised and never delivered.

You'll have to supply evidence of Trump's far better replacement for Obamacare being instituted immediately after him taking office as well as copies of cancelled checks from Mexico paying for the wall to make a case that he's not in that group promising and promising and not delivering.

I wish North Carolina would flip heavily blue. My family wants to retire there, but are kinda refusing to move to a Trump state.

Everyone knows this is just Trump's way of sabotaging Obamacare so he can claim "See, it failed."

GOP has no solutions for a better healthcare system; everything they have even suggested is obviously much worse. So it was apparent they would have to change tactics and destroy the current system so that people have no choice and their ****ty plans look better by comparison.

But the end result will be the same: tens of millions losing health insurance. And if the insurance is "cheaper", that's because it won't cover jack and will leave you screwed if you actually get sick. Because conservatives don't believe access to healthcare is a necessity, and they don't really care if a bunch of people can't access it.

They do not have any answers on healthcare that would improve it. Never did, never will.

Hon. Donald J. Trump won NC by the largest percentage since 2004.
