    Thus meaning Donald Trump would be on par with every other president of the united states in recent history. The last three were no better, nor any of those that came before even them.

    25 February 2017 and Hillary is STILL NOT NOR WILL EVER BE President of the United States. The not-my-president crowd need to grow up and start healing the country and not dividing it.

    Trump could never betray the working class voters in a manner that rivals decades of DNC back stabbing. It's been months since the election, and liberals can't seem to digest the reason for their defeat. Trump beat them with WHITE WORKING CLASS VOTERS. Democratic white working class voters ... in the democratic rust belt states ...

    You mean like Obama betrayed the white working class who helped elect him in the first place? Thing is I don't recall Trump saying the white working class is the root of all evil who cling to their bibles and their guns.

    With all the hatred heaped on Trump from every direction, all he has is his base. No one else can harm him. He is a smart man, selling us out, sells himself out.

    TWO DAYS After Governor Declares CT Sanctuary State – Illegal Alien Murders Mother and Kidnaps 6 Yr-Old Girl.

    We need laws that hold these politicians singling and corporately liable for the harms that results when they nullify federal law. Hell, even case law would do it.

    Just because Obama betrayed the working class does NOT mean Trump will. Hey, here's a novel thought.....why don't you give him a CHANCE? Libs seem to have a selective memory about Obama, like he was some god-----just because Obama thought he was, certainly didn't make him one. He ignored the middle class and played identity politics instead. Hence the rise and victory of Trump...

    He betrayed them from the very first time he opened his pie hole. HIs intentions were only to fulfill his and the agendas of the people that are giving the him the directives and it sure ain't his supporters.

    They "hate" the right so much that they will destroy the country before they willingly step aside to let us run it. If they aren't in power over something, they burn it down.

    True.

    Trump is a Russian-backed Steve Bannon puppet.

    Without President Bannon pulling his strings he wouldn't have a clue.

    Everybody knew that Trump was going to betray the blue-collar base.

    He is more interested in tax cuts that will line the pockets of his Wall Street cronies.

    Trump is going to get a lot of push-back, especially on health care.

    At some point, I would hope the Senate would stop this Bannon-inspired lunacy

    We have enough issues in Connecticut, Bridgeport, New Haven, and Hartford aren't very nice places.

    But, why not bring in illegals, as if that will help out the situation.

    The irony is that it's mostly the working class who get Obamacare, it's actually mostly the lower middle classes who get it, because the poor get Medicaid.

    Russia is being brought its knees due to the sanctions and while other counties are proliferating energy independence, this corrupt administration wants to take the USA backwards so that Putin and the Oligarchs in partnership with Exxon (this is where Tillerson comes in) can steal oil from places surrounding Russia as they take over territories.

    I have sympathy for the poorly-educated White males who were seduced by the Novelty Act when they felt that the Democratic Party had abandoned them.

    Will the angry tweety bird really take them back to 1950s coal-mining, steel production, and large-scale manufacturing prosperity? Of course not.

    He's already betraying them by trying to stiff them with the tab for his silly wall that he had vowed he would make Mexico pay for, and his promised "immediate" repeal of ObamaCare and replacement with his "something terrific!" health care plan that covers "everybody!" is as reliable as a Trump® U diploma. Mar-a-Lago Lardass snd his prissy Goldman Sachs cronies have a very different agenda.

    Some are suspicious; some already get it; some are cultists who never will.

    "Asinine policies"? Oh, you mean like bringing jobs back to this country, securing the borders to keep illegal criminals out, etc? Yeah, gee....how asinine can he get?

    I noticed he got Bruce/Caitlin Jenner's panties in a wad when Trump ordered the schools to get back to basics, meaning the girls restrooms/lockers means just for girls (those born w/a vagina) - no boys allowed and vice versa.....rock on, Trump!

    You think like most democrats and you all wonder why the working class is leaving your party.
    Because you are hoping the working class suffer just so you guys can make a political point.
    You liberals and democrats are truly a hateful group of people.

    your post is naive. expect the left to treat trump the same way the right treated obama...look up karma. the difference obviously is the left has as much smaller grasp on power.

    OP, for someone like you, Trump could never do a thing right.

    For the rest of us, even if Trump did nothing for us from here on out, he has done wonders.

    If I believed in a god I'd get down on my knees and thank that god for Trump!
