None of the sleaze will matter. The fundamental problems will persist and only get worse. News coverage like rich liberals paying to get their kids in good colleges create more Trump voters every day.
AND... it mattered who his opposition was...

It was judged that the Democrat option was the worse option.

Exactly


what the left fails to grasp is that even if we stipulate every terrible thing they say about Trump is correct, we still compare him to them and choose him!


They don't get that this choice isn't about Trump. It is about how vile the left is.




Get this left people. As bad as you say Trump is, we see you as a far worse alternative. period.

After the last 6 months, in my humble opinion there is no democrat alternative that isn't equal to or worse than Hillary.


last night the horror show of a presidential candidate Gillibrand (don't care if I spelled it wrong) said "there are no illegal humans"


The ghost of Kate Steinle begs to differ.

^^^ Projection.

Just replace Fox for CNN, and Brietbart for MSNBC, and voting a straight (R) ticket in the above claim, and you'll have something closer to reality.

personally I get more information from places like C-D than about anywhere. I vote straight ticket republican because of the explanations of the left about their policy beliefs.


The left has utterly lost its freaking mind. utterly.

Well you got us there, I guess criticism of Trump for his statements on a deceased senator (John McCain) is vile.

Doesn't matter what I think.

Doesn't matter what you think.

Mueller has issued lots of indictments, gotten quite a few convictions and a number have already been sentenced.

The circle around tRump keeps drawing tighter.

Not to mention the 16 other investigations into tRump's shenanigans that are also continuing.

He's gonna be done soon.

Ah, yes, deflection once again.

Or, do I mean, "Hillary!!"?

It does but in 2016 we had the choice between 2 flawed candidates, one a DC political outsider and the other a DC career politician crooked criminal. Trump had so called scandals dogging his past. Hillary had real life real time scandals unfolding before our eyes.



Trump even with all his flaws we (America) are lucky that he won and with what the Dems are presenting to us for 2020 America as we know and love it needs to elect Trump again.

The left has utterly lost its freaking mind. utterly.
So you rely on partisan bulletin boards and fora, which by their very natures are filled with personal opinions and unverified claims and often wild and undocumented accusations for your "information". Got it.

Yet you never change your mind, just become more and more entrenched and admittedly always voting the straight Republican ticket.

If that's the case, why do you bother to even check out said bulletin boards and fora? Nothing's going to change your mind, clearly.
