oh yeah and Dems are doing almost 10 points better in special elections than you would expect.
You have months before the house flips and actual congressional oversight begins.
See you then, proto-fascists.
I still see no sign that liberals understand why Trump won, or that they are changing course to avoid the same thing again. Nearly every liberal is stuck in the Liberal Media Rat Maze and as a result has no clue what's going on in the real world. When I see anything change, I'll let you know.
DG,
Holy crap dude, we all know why Trump won. This has been mentioned before, but I will spell it out for you. A perfect storm of many things, all having a near equal effect.
1) Democrats had failed to support policies or even lip service that supported the working man/woman, and while Bernie was a big hit early on, his "free college" mantra didn't strike a chord with those working men and women and in fact helped make Democrats seem elitist (which is an appropriate criticism).
2) Trump said he would support policies that supported the working man/woman.
3) The Democrats had a flawed candidate in Hillary Clinton. She has never been very likable even by many members of her own party, and by her own admission, she is not good at campaigning.
4) Hillary did not campaign as hard as Trump did. Trump clearly outworked her on the campaign trail. Unfortunately this was due to Trump's insatiable need for approval, not any great work ethic on his part as we have seen how lazy he is since being in office.
5) Help from Russia, and now it seems perhaps other countries as well. In such a close election, this help can not be discounted.
6) America's still general feeling that men should be President, not women.
7) Trump was an intriguing candidate. Seemingly coming from the outside, and many people were very impressed with the fact that he SAID he wouldn't be taking money from any special interests because he was wealthy enough to fund his own campaign.
Here is where you DG fail big time.
1) This is not about the election. It never has been. Donald Trump is a criminal and a danger to our nation and democracy. You Trumpers are Uncle Rico from Napoleon Dynamite reliving his high school football days when you constantly bring up Trump's win in 2016. We are now 75 known Russian contacts in. We now know Don Jr. also met with other foreign nations who wanted to help the Trump campaign. Mueller has indictments and guilty pleas including those who are cooperating. We have Trump's personal attorney who was being surveiled and did some bad enough stuff they had to raid his home, office, and hotel room. Now, we have tapes of him on the phone with Trump. We have tons of evidence of collusion with Russia. We have tons of evidence of obstruction of justice. Experts are saying money laundering is a forgone conclusion.
2) Trumpers have no platform at all to say anti-Trumpers aren't living in the real world. Trump is a serial liar, and he continues to lie about things that have been debunked. He is truly in an alternative universe, and you believe his crap. It's all lies, brother. Trump is not a successful businessman. It is very likely he is broke or close to it...much more likely than he has $10 billion dollars as he claims.
There were reasonable reasons for you to vote for Trump back in November 2016. There is no reasonable reason for you to still be supporting this serial liar criminal at the end of May 2018. You backed a corrupt one. He fooled you. Own it and move on to another politician to have a religious-like following of. I thought you conservatives didn't need to rely on politicians, that you pulled yourselves up by your own bootstraps. You make fun of liberals and say we want handouts, but then you gleefully cheer a politician. Don't rely on a politician to make your life better, brother. Make your life better yourself.
I will be proven right in an extremely epic way.
Mueller is coming.
The clown is done.
