    Where did you come up with that nonsense. Now It is certain that Trump did run a campaign with an emphasis on exploiting racism and was supported and endorsed by white supremicists but that his different from claiming the working class were labeled as white supremacists by the Democratic party.

    So what is you explanation of why the middle class was so willing to vote against their own interest. No question that the Republican healthcare bill was going to shaft the lower middle class. And the Republican plans to cut Medicaid and Medicare are aimed at hurting the middle class. And of course there is the tax reform which gives at least 80% to the upper ten percent and a measly $660 dollars to the middle class while balooning the deficit. And now of course the Republicans are putting 401K plans at risk and perhaps cutting other deductions that help the middle class i n the budget plans so they can do tax reform to help the rich.

    So give me your theory why the middle class voted so obviously against their own interest.

    Yes. Stock market at all time highs is fake news. What a joke. Job posting everywhere. Jobs unfilled everywhere. Fake news. More like fake brain to not see a good economy right now.
    And no, it didn't just materialize in the last 9 months.

    For the sake of argument, I'll go along with your first paragraph. As to the question you pose (in bold), the answer is simple: because their only other option was Hillary Clinton. Probably anyone else could have won, but the DNC insisted on ramming Hillary down everyone's throats. If you want to find "fault" in people who got Trump elected, the DNC should be at the top of your list.

    Foreign scientist using Poland as one of the examples.

    Maybe these scientist can explain what happened to California ??? -> Adios Mexifornia formerly California -> http://www.politicalforum.com/index.php?threads/adios-mexifornia-formerly-california.517277/

    Many of Trumps middle class tax paying supporters have either seen, saw or heard of what has become of California and they don't like it.

    And EVERY righty I know, Every single one is a racist. They don't even hide it.

    I am often surrounded by righty laborers when I run a job site. They are thick as thieves around here. And they are all racists.

    In fact, I cant remember the last time I met a righty who I thought was a good person. I was a Republican for many years but this crowd is anti-conservative and could care less about core American values. They just want control. They remind me of rabid dogs.

    Much of the crap on the left drives me nuts. I wish we had a respectable right wing. Maybe Flake, Corker et al will take the lead and drive the core, principled Republicans a new direction. There is a lot of talk of the party splitting.

    So you actually think the American healthcare system was working before the ACA? But that silliness aside block grants to states is hardly returning America to private healthcare.

    In your blind worship of your p****-grabbing messiah, your zealotry compels you to fantasize that most Americans disapproving of his squalid performance is based upon "hate" and that unpopularity is the metric of democratic success. Representative government is not based upon your contempt for Americans when they do not share in your adoration.

    By your metric, your blind faith is affirmed by your Glorious Leader's public regard sinking even lower.

    You may well get your wish.

    You can not provide any evidence to support that statement because of course it is not true. But go ahead and try to post your evidence if you actuslly have any.

    90% of Americans were covered by healthcare

    When rich canadians get really sick they flee their socialized medicine system and come to America for treatment
