One Year Ago Today....

The great citizens of America got out and voted in record numbers, for true change, and real hope. It's MAGA Day in America and Trump is doing a fine job whether you love him or hate him.... Polls are nothing and we all know that. Statistically, Trump has turned this country around to days we haven't seen since pre-9/11 (with the exception of manufacturing jobs, which are on the rise). It's a great time to be a true American!

You can talk about polls and approvals all day long, we've learned our lessons about polls though. Looking at the statistics, Trump is doing exactly what he said he was going to do, which is make America great again.

 

Uncle Ferd says, "Yeah...

... The Donald got elected in spite o' grabbin' a woman's hoochie...

... an' Harvey Weinstein gonna get arrested fer doin' the same thing.

Go figger."

 

I've always given you the benefit of the doubt, but this time you're gonna have to show me proof that Trump grabbed a woman's hoochie.

 

`Cause he said so.

 

Harvey ain't going to no jail........he'll be on the beach in Tel Aviv humping some sex slave from Eastern Europe

 

Except that "voted in record numbers" exists only in your dreams. Because turnout was not even close to record number, let alone turnout in 2008 and 2012.

But, keep reliving that glorious moment, since after beating Hillary, Trump hasn't really achieved much in terms of legislation, despite the GOP holding the WH, Senate and the House.

 

Trump is doing nothing but Tweeting and going around running his mouth like the guy at the end of the bar.

Right now, Trump's biggest boast is the economy. But the Trump adminstration made no changed to the economic and fiscal policies they inherited from the previous adminstration, and the stock market's trajectory and job and GDP growth are pretty much on the same path as they have been for the past few years.

The fact is, that Trump has nothing else to point to. He also has two habits that are characteristics of weak demogogues.

One is avoiding responsibility (as he did when he attacked Ed Gillespie last night).

The other is taking loud credit for things he had nothing to do with.

The US is in broad decline as a world power, as our allies in Europe and Asia know that they can't trust an erratic, untrustworthy and decidedly unloyal US leader, and our rivals rush to fill the vacuum created by the failures of US leadership under this administration.

 

I'm pretty sure Trump said he 'could' because the woman let you. I don't recall him saying he actually did.

 

That's an odd statement considering that before Trump ISIS went from the JV team to an army, Russia ran wild, NATO wasn't being properly funded, BLM was formed, and Europe was Islamicized. By merely being elected our economy has improved, the stock market rose, unemployment dropped and illegals left of stopped coming here.

The problem is the left wing anti Trump media takes everything he does and makes it look bad, i.e. eats fried chicken with a fork, 2 scoops, collusion, koi fish, and so on. You guys have been willingly brainwashed by the media and you can't see it.

If I was advising Trump I'd tell him to stop with the Tweets as they give the left too much ammo to measure every word and find something wrong with it.

 

Yah they let Harvey too

 

Consent doesn't exist just because someone keeps their mouth shut, or else deaf-mutes would be impossible to rape

 

Voter turnout for the Republican candidate:

2016: 62,984,825
2012: 60,933,504
2008: 59,948,323
2004: 62,040,610
2000: 50,456,002
1996: 39,197,469
1992: 39,104,550
1988: 48,886,097
1984: 54,455,472
1980: 43,903,230

Should I keep going or do you get the point now?

As for total turnout...
129,446,839 - 2008 total turnout
126,849,299 - 2012 total turnout
128,838,341 - 2016 total turnout

2008 was historical after democrats bused in millions to vote so no surprise there. However, each year since, the democrat turnout has decreased while the Republican turnout has increased. I don't know why you'd have such a problem with Trump making this country better, but I guess that's just partisanship on your part.

 

Are you ago today "Hillary by a Landslide!"

 

No he didn't. He said a rich man CAN. He never said he did.

 

Voting and turnout was actually lower than previous elections.

I gave you stats and a link to follow that proves Trump's success so far. Your opinion is your opinion, but that stats prove he's doing good for the country.

You must not be paying attention to all the places Trump is visiting right now, in Asia, where he's welcomed with open arms. Are you too concerned with his decision to toss an entire box of fish food to the koi to notice?

 

In the trippy hippy dippy lunatic liberal world it’s the same as rape.

 

Yeah we know about that.... There was proof and huge DNC donor Weinstein admitted to it. Since then, tons of people are coming out about those big DNC donors in Hollywood sexually abusing them. No proof of sexual abuse/assault by Trump though. What's sad is that the left would be overjoyed to hear that Trump sexually assaulted a woman or women while at the same time acting like they're completely against it in every way.

A woman's life is expendable to the anti-Trump crowd as long as they can pin something to Trump in a negative light. Absolutely sad to know that the pro-women crowd isn't really pro woman.

 

Where's the proof that Trump did what you claim?

 

He's to busy with hatred.

 

He has no proof, he just has hatred.

 

Why, yes it is, my friend, and I tip my hat to President Trump and all his supporters - including yourself - who prevailed while everyone told you he would never win the election.

I also tip my hat to all the Republicans who didn't vote for Trump in the primaries but set aside their differences after he won the nomination and helped push him over the top to victory. It truly was a team effort.

As for all the sore losers in the Legion of Butthurt whose pain and lack of dignity and grace continues to bring me so much joy, I want to thank you for making this the BEST YEAR EVER!!!

Sincerely yours,

 

You run into a problem in figuring out these numbers. Some reflect the percentage of the voting age population, others do the percentage of those registered. Even the federal election commission has different numbers or percentages as to how many make up the voting age population.
Voter turnout is now pegged at 55.5% for 2016
2012 53.6%
2008 56.8%
2004 55.3%
2000 51.3%
1996 49.1%
1992 55.1%
1988 50.1%

With the exception of 2008 one has to go back to 1968 when 60.8% voted to get a higher turn out percentage than the 55.5% with the exception of 2008 which was at 56.8%

I believe she was sitting around an 80% chance of winning at this exact time last year... In fact, let's see.

Here's a good one where a poll favorable to Trump was calling a Clinton victory by a score of 352 to 186. It's from Nov 7.
