    Trump has yet to enact any policies in relation to the economy. Those that believe the mere presence of Trump in the WH has cause anything more than a blip for a day or two do not understand how the economy works very well.

    Regardless - my train wreck comments are not related to the economy.

    Now that I agree with but this has nothing to do with the fact that rump is a train wreck. There are not many real republicans in the GOP these days and Trump is certainly not one of them. He probably does not even know what Republicanism is , never mind subscribe to the the ideology of Republicanism.

    Neither do you of course so you should probably avoid using the word Republican until you figure out what "Republicanism" means.

    it is you that is clueless when it comes to politics
    the president gets the credit or the blame when it comes to things like the economy even if he had nothing to do with it

    Just like your opinion that Trump is a train wreck has nothing to do with swamp-dwellers panicking as he gets closer to pulling that plug. McCain is one of the more obvious, but plenty of RINOS are shaking in their boots.

    Now you are just throwing insults and building a strawman. I did not say that the President does not get credit or blame when it comes to the economy.

    Swamp dwellers are not panicking. Not the one's that matter anyway. McCain is not such a dweller.

    Second - Trump is a RINO - Like most conservatives Trump does not follow the ideology of Republicanism and probably does not even know what it is.

    How do you know who's panicking and who's not? Psychic?

    McCain is desperately trying to discredit Trump. Why? Because he's scared. Doesn't make much sense because McCain has nearly reached the end of his career, but he has a reputation to worry about. He's afraid Trump wont stop at exposing crooked Dems. McCain is a lot of things, but hes not naive.

    Trump is neither a RINO nor a traditional Republican. He's above two party politics and both parties know it. Which is exactly why they're all panicking

    P.S. appears you're a little panicky too. ;)

    Like both Red and Blue - Trump hates the the main principle on which this nation was founded - respect for individual liberty - individual rights and freedoms "ABOVE" the legitimate authority of Gov't. He loves Big Gov't and Big Deficits and has disdain for the middle class. He wants to push the middle class into indentured servitude by moving wealth from the middle class to the elite.

    The GOP leadership has lost its way and has little respect for Republicanism - and neither does Trump.

    What is this now ? Can you not have a civil conversation on the facts. The above is nothing demonization and name calling.

    Just because you can not handle the message is no reason to shoot the messenger Ms Ad Hom Fallacy.

    You know what would "save the day"? Try putting up a non alcoholic candidate with less baggage.

    I'd say it's amazing to see all of these Trump lovers who are anxious for the Republicans to get destroyed, handing the government back over to the Democrats, but it isn't. The Trump lovers are not Republicans. They're alt-right white supremacist Republican haters, like Steve Bannon and Steve Miller. Sad.

    You keep using the words "train wreck" and that is an opinion, millions believe otherwise.

    Does anyone care what the Bush family and it's suck-ophants claim? Ask Jeb Bush...if you can locate him.

    The only message you're interested in getting out is hate for the president. And telling us what other people think. Both of which are purely emotional.

    Okay. No idea what "barrycare" is though. But if you want to get rid of the Republicans and replace them with Democrats, that's your choice. You just may get your wish.

    Of course you know what barrycare is( repealing barrycare isn't a big enough hint?). I never said replace the rinos with democrats, after all rinos are Democrat lite. I want to replace them with Republicans that will do as they campaigned on.

    Trump is a Train Wreck ... he has gotten almost nothing done in congress none of any significance, members of his own party want him out and have spoken out publicly which is a whole different level of dislike, even ex President Bush (along with Obama and McCain) spoke out publicly against him.

    His actions contradict his words - he talks about the opioid crisis and then appoints the guy who fueled the crisis as Drug Czar.

    He is against freedom of the press and has characterized freedom of speech as "disgusting" and wants censorship of the press.

    He is alienating our closest allies while snuggling up to the #1 supporter of terrorism in the world

    He lies on a regular basis and then gets caught in those lies.

    He lashes out like a child against criticism.

    He is a buffoon on world stage and does not know how to conduct himself civilly.

    This is just to name a few things. Denial that this guy is a Train Wreck is like denying that water is wet or that the sky is blue.
