Never thought I would see the day where Michael Moore is a Republican hero. LOL. Y'all keep believing that Trump is a shoe in and don't bother going to the polls as it would just be wasting your precious time.

Trump had no platform either he just finger pointed and the left and it worked.

Not a hero, but a leftie who knew Trump would win in 2016, when all others (includes most posting here) never saw it coming. Most predicted a Hillary landslide. Now they can eat crow.

Honestly, what Trump's election has shown is that any moron, no matter how insipid or corrupt, no matter how little experience they may have, if they have enough money and a catch phrase...


..a little help from a foreign power and the FBI would not hurt either.

None of the Dim candidates are doing much for me. Gabbard isn't too bad, but the DNC has buried her. I might have to vote for Trump. Hold my nose and pull the trigger I guess.

None of them really want to be president. They just want to remove Trump from office.

It doesn't matter who the Ds put up. They are just not very good at campaigning.
Dems aren't well liked outside of the West Coast and Northeast. They'll have a very hard time trying to win in the Midwest and the South

Florida however does like Trump. The problem is what do states like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan and Arizona (which Trump won but is not very liked) vote like. These four states could go blue and there goes trump if they hold. No Florida or Ohio needed. Trump expanded the map in 16, now he need to keep the map the same.

I tend to disagree with this statement. Trump responded against the “status quo” that puts other countries’ needs ahead of working Americans, against increased MORE legal/illegal immigrants that HRC said that we “don’t have enough refugees”. Voting for Trump was the equivalent of trying to “short circuit” the system that pretty much ignores the common man. When Bush was selected/elected, it proved that ANYONE can do a job as POTUS since he was only a figurehead/mouthpiece. Why not elect the same to send a message to the “powers that be” that Americans come first and that we don’t want to be FORCED to buy healthcare by the government? Trump didn’t have to be so nasty to illegals with his insults. He should have just run on a nationalism platform and left race/ethnicity out of it. Honestly, those racist appeals though did appeal to his core base since they need to “rule over” someone to feel superior.
