The Demo**** power elites destroyed the party backing a criminal candidate, and using criminal practices to do so. And that's clearly Trump's fault because they gambled the soul of their party, and lost. Now they have nothing. So, time to blame Trump rather than clean up their own backyard.
Dead with the left, but the Demo***** are in such disarray it doesn't matter. Harris has similar appeal, and a broader base. (California) Bank on Harris.
As an outsider who is not a US American, but who does not really care who the US president is and what he is doing ... just because it often affects the rest of the ball with the name of Earth: Your US American has left you with a choice between pest (Hillary) and cholera (Trump), with all your shrewdness! Please be the next time smarter in the preselections ... because even worse than in the last choice is actually only this constellation:
He ain't NYC no more. He's Minnesota. And twice elected. The first time just barely. So "they" like him more. Elitist only if you consider Sanders so. I find Franken more Populist like Sanders. Progressive if you "get it" , like a Progressive Tax Code we had in Eisenhower times. Warren use to be but sold out to the Liberals as Trump sold out to the Neocons. I hope that makes sense, because I do not approve of "labels" and I used a lot of them. Although attempt was made to use them in a manner to express political ideology. I mean how can a Wall St. Liberal be Progressive ala Tax Code. No way! We need a Democratic Party Candidate from the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party. Franken could be the one. Not Biden or any other recycled candidate. For decades both parties have played the center and the Liberals are Republican-lite. Same tax policy. Same wars. Same Wall St. gets richer or bailed out while Main St. gets poorer or foreclosed! Thank you bipartisan Free Trade! What part don't I have correct.
Au contraire. His hands across the aisle to GOP senators resulting in bipartisan accomplishments says otherwise. He initiates, shares a lunch and gets results with "the enemy". How unlikable? We need more of his technique among Congress people. Less polarity.
Yes he tore a ton of republicans down to win an election, so it is their turn now. You sow what you reap around Washington, because the same hardball exists after a campaign as it did before. If you telling me that Trump's tender ego is more important than governing the country, then I think you are correct. It is amazing how trumpsters apply a different standard to all other republicans now, that they never applied to Trump before or after he won. The man is still as self centered, nasty, and thin skinned as he was during the election, but everyone else is supposed to put their egos aside and stand loyal to him, for the good of the country .
I think the next president will be a Republican, because the Democrats will not learn from their mistakes and continue to blame everyone else.
Indeed, their record spoke for itself in working class states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Iowa. It spoke so loud that it gave Trump the margin of victory he needed.
Trump didn't tear anyone down He exposed them for the slimy swamp creatures they were and reminded the voters why they were so disliked The republican establishment thought they would tell the voters who the candidate would be just as they always have but not this time
And he is not being 'torn down' either. The establishment is exposing him for the slimy swamp creature he is. Stop pretending that somehow, the normal rules of engagement do not apply to Trump. He is getting exactly what he gave. The same loyalty, decency and integrity he showed throughout the primary and general election is coming back to him. He got in playing dirty, and dirt is all he will get from Washington.
And another Trump hater raises his dirty hand. Politics is a contact sport and the one who got the roughest treatment was Donald Trump. In spite of the smears thrown at him, he won. He made fools out of Hillary, the entire Democrat party, the mass hysteria (I mean media) and YOU. He won by campaigning hard to crowds in the tens of thousands--not by laying at the feet of cable news hacks posing as journalists. In the process, he flipped several states from blue to red--states that had not voted Republican in 30 years. No amount of whining about rules of engagement (and who cares what you consider the rules of engagement to be) will ever change that. The poor losers of last November are morphing into crackpots.
