The forthcoming election is no longer a contest between Democrats and Republicans, as has been the case in the past; it is between democracy and those who would seek to tear it down, by converting it to an instrument that reflects their interests and their will alone. The US is sailing towards an iceberg.

I say the bar has to be set highest for the leader of the nation, don’t you think?
I say that those who get their moral compass from political leaders are simple-minded, don’t you think?

Agreed. It is disgusting how the DNC and establishment MSM are trying to once again undermine the will of the people and insert yet another corrupt, empty-suit corporate "Democrat". The whole basis of democracy is to let the people decide, and you now have MSM talking heads unabashedly tearing down Bernie Sanders on the regular.
The same thing happened with the Republicans in 2016. During the primaries they tried everything to take him down, including using the Democrat "you racist!" playbook. But Trump's strategy (expanding the Rep base by stealing blue collar from the Democrats) was too strong. Not sure Bernie's strategy can steal back some of those folks.
Unfortunately, we never get the chance to see it play out. …..because the Democrats are so desperate that they seem willing to nominate an actual former Republican, racist policy-supporting, misogynistic, middle-class-hating BILLIONAIRE. Isn't it great what desperation can do to your mind?

Hey Trump lovers, whatever happened to MS-13? Did they all move away after the election? Haven’t heard you right wingers complaining about them in a long time.
How's your boy Avennati doing? Haven't heard you Lefites talk about him in a while.
Oh that's right, he was just CONVITED and facing a loooong jail sentence. Oh, and then there's the California cases against him, which are even worse.
How'd the Kavanaugh case go?
Oh that's right, you guys lost and he's doing a great job on the Supreme Court (per Ruth Bader Ginsburg).
How's your boy Jussie Smollet doing?
Oh that's right, after activist judges corruptly tried to drop the Hoax case, he's now indicted on the charges that we all knew he should be in the first place.
How's your Native American drummer guy that was harassed by Nick Sandmann doing?
Oh that's right, it was exposed as yet another massive lie pushed by the MSM, as video proved that Sandmann actually acted quite well for a 17 year old kid with a drum inches from his face. Oh, and CNN has now PAID the Sandmann family BIG MONEY for their blatant wrongdoing.
How's the illegal immigration situation going at the southern border?
Oh that's right, after Trump threatened tariffs on Mexico (literally 3 days later), Mexico came to the table and immediately began a new program to stop the flow through their country. And guess what? Now it's down 75%. And guess what's been sharply going up now? Wages for the lowest income workers. Imagine that.
Little Mikey insults farmers:
“I could teach anybody in this room” to be a farmer.
“It’s a process,” he went on to say, referring to the agrarian economy 300 years ago, “you dig a hole, you put a seed in, you put dirt on to, add water, up comes the corn.” He then said working in the modern information economy is “fundamentally different, because it’s built around replacing people with technology and the skill sets you need to learn are how to think and analyze and that is a whole degree level different, you need to have different skill set, you have to have a lot more gray matter.”

Welp, after a couple of recent mini-peaks (he was actually flirting with 44% approval), it appears that DJT is on the way back down--and his disapproval ratings are heading up.
The battle lines mostly seem to be drawn, though. Absent a (quite unlikely) stock-market crash or other clear recession signal, I seriously doubt the President will go below 40%, or above 44%. As others have observed, the only question is whose supporters will actually go to the polls and vote.
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/trump-approval-ratings/Trump has a 45.2% approval per RCP average.
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/president_trump_job_approval-6179.html
He's been at 45% on RCP numerous times. That doesn't change the conversation nor does is change the fact that he has been the most consistently unpopular president....ever?
41-44% -/+ 3% looks about right.
He, and his supporters, are still banking on winning with 46%. YOU are still banking on him winning with 46%. I've explained this to you before so I won't explain it again. He can't win with the same demographical advantages as the demographics change as our country changes.
The fact that a socialist and a 30something year old homosexual are polling ahead of Trump in NATIONAL polls should concern you. Yet you have your head in the sand.

Did he say something that was untrue?
Tell me again why Trump should get all the credit for the low unemployment numbers instead of Obama.
great piece here, summing up the confusion right now in the eleciton. dems should read it. it's short.
and bringing the election into context by showing how wounded and weak obama and bill clinton were ant that they still won by large margins.
Maybe bernie's grouchy but understandable persona will work. It's no crazier than thinking a southern ex-radical lefty with female problems and a half black guy named Hussein who was raised overseas and not particularly qualified would win.

What did he say wrong? You can teach an illiterate 2nd grade dropout to be a farmer or factory worker. Facts
