I think he has a lot more support than people realize, and his opposition is just VERY vocal. A lot of people are too embarrassed to admit they voted for him, and support him.

Plus, Republicans tend to show up no matter what. Democrats are more emotional, and are more likely not to vote at all if they don’t like either candidate. That’s voting based on principal, rather than emotion.
If we are emotional we will vote.

If we have a recession, Trump will loose. He is currently trying to get the fed to cut interest rates to help prop up the economy.

Yea the Dems had 4 years to hammer him on policy but they played chicken little and overreacted to everything he said.

People in the "flyover" states just cared about jobs, and he delivered. Not those bullshyt uber and door dash "service economy" jobs, but actual jobs that paid good money. Dems came in caping for illegal immigrants, who hurt wages, just an example of how out of touch they are with the average citizen.

I think the Dems need to lose this election so they can take an honest look at themselves and decide who they're going to be going forward. Nobody likes a whiner, and the "progressives" whine so hard about Trump because he exposed the fact that people don't fukk with them like they thought outside of their echo chambers and block bots on twitter. Hilary pandered to them and lost what was probably the most slam dunk election of all time.

They still haven't learned their lesson.

Russiagate- nothing
Mueller-nothing
Tariffs and trade wars hurting the economy- didn't happen
Worst recession of the modern era- didn't happen
World war 3- nope

They rode the outrage train until the gas ran out

All this plus the economy is good. Liberals and left leaners and young folks are less likely to vote when the economy is good. Republicans as you said vote no matter what.

In the end it will be a vote or no vote based on your wallet.

I see chump ummm I mean trump winning a second election.

^^^ I agree with almost* everything, especially the bolded.

I just saw a clip of Dr. Drew asking how many homeless people have to die in LA for the city to address the homelessness. Mind you, in that clip, it was stated that LA somehow found housing for 800,000 illegal immigrants. As we all know, LA is supporting free health care for illegal immigrants too. Who the hell is supposed to vote for a party that puts illegal criminals before tax paying, legal citizens???

The biggest liberal cities are infested with literal rats, mass homelessness, unaffordable housing & just straight up lack cleanliness. I keep asking myself if the better quality of life is consistently found in red states. I can’t use racism as marker, b/c racism is literally everywhere. Plus, people are leaving California & NYC in droves based on that Bloomberg article...what does that tell you?

*I think that this upcoming recession will be way worse than 2008.

Donald trump wins easy hell lose popular vote but win the electoral college easier.

The dems will get less of the black vote without tangibles. I think the white vote will ho higher for donald Trump

and the dems will turn their backs on black voters and blame us for trump being elected. They will drop black voters for illegals and LGBT votes next.

And they will lose again. LGBT has its own racism to worry about & I doubt that they are majority blue anyway. Hopefully this paves the way for a new/independent party to emerge as a formidable contender in the next cycle & finally expand the two party system. That’s all that I’m hoping for at this point.

thats what i never understood, the attention is always on the gop and dem... why not have a 3rd party get as much attention, and have them in the debates. The last independent candidate to make some noise was probably Ross Perot and he pulled a lot of Bush's votes.
