40% approval rating, under FBI investigation, pushing unpopular legislation and on pace to lead his party to a mid-term wipeout.
If this is winning, I would hate to see what losing looks like.
Did you take a look at the 2010 election?
Oh, I remember.
Which is why it is hilarious how Trump lackeys are making the same mistake we did in 2010.
No no, dude. This is where you libs are getting it wrong. Trust me. The Trump train is much stronger than people think.
On election night on MSNBC, Rachel Maddow didn't believe that America was electing the "outsider" if they were simulatanious casting votes for "insiders" like Toomey and Burr and Portman.
I understood exactly what they were doing...they were voting for whoever didn't have a "D" next to their name. It really was that simple.Republicans will have the advantage of money as they did in 2010. They are better organized and more ruthless than Democrats. But Donald Trump is already seen as a failed President all over the political spectrum. He broke his promises to working-class white people other than to make life miserable for the middle class. He then sold out quickly to people who believe only in the enrichment and indulgence of themselves, easy people to vilify. If you think Barack Obama scared people about 'gun rights', wait till you see what Trump can do to build visceral fears in people who disdained him in November.
Donald Trump governs like a corrupt kleptocrat, always looking out for his cronies. This is new to America, something which few of us will like. Because our only chance to weaken his power will be to vote against his Congressional enablers in the 2018 midterm election. Democrats will be motivated as they have not been since 2008. Be sure to watch for the constitutional purists.
The prize is to be had in 2018. Republicans may be dreaming of transforming America into the perverse dream of a society in which 95% of the people suffer for 2%, in which hunger and cold motivate people to treat unpaid overtime as a blessing... how did that work out in Russia a century ago?
No, it is YOUR idol whose clay feet are getting eroded. People are recognizing his incompetence, corruption, recklessness, and cruelty. This is before the economy tanks or some fellow named Kim uses WMDs on our ally South Korea.
If there is anything to the stories of Russian aid to the Trump campaign, then your GOP has a big problem. If you cheat to win, you lose all credibility. You will see social unrest that makes the anti-establishment demonstrations look placid by contrast.
