Guess what? They were wrong then and they are wrong now.

x a million

 

It was a shock to me when Trump won, as I thought the tapes had done him in for sure.

The Dems were so sure HRC had won they started the party before the final result was in, according to the news report I saw.

That was before Americans had seen Trump in action and had betrayed his promises. Did you know that when he launched his campaign he said he thought that taxes on the rich were too low? And that any tax bill he passed would raise taxes on himself? And yet the tax bill is touted as Trump's big achievement and a fulfillment of a campaign promise.

555555.....this is what most Americans think of Trump.  Most Americans are not MAGA rubes.  The Orlando Sentinel is expressing what most Americans think which is "we want someone not named Trump to be President."

 

[Some readers will wonder how we could possibly eliminate a candidate so far before an election, and before knowing the identity of his opponent.

Because there’s no point pretending we would ever recommend that readers vote for Trump.

 

After 2½ years we’ve seen enough.

 

Enough of the chaos, the division, the schoolyard insults, the self-aggrandizement, the corruption, and especially the lies.

So many lies — from white lies to whoppers — told out of ignorance, laziness, recklessness, expediency or opportunity.

Trump’s capacity for lying isn’t the surprise here, though the frequency is. It’s the tolerance so many Americans have for it.]

You heard the "same argument in 2016?"  You can't be serious.  You should read the Sentinel article.  It spells out exactly why they won't endorse Trump--even though they are a right-leaning news outlet.  The arguments they make are exclusively about his time in office, so it's clearly not the same arguments that were made in 2016.

I'm glad he changed his mind and gave us all a tax break. Those that are complaining don't pay any taxes anyway.

Don't care. History is on my side.

Why are you repeating everything bristolboy said already?

Why are you repeating the same old trash every day.

 

Did it ever occur to you that bristolboy and I are different people and anybody can comment on topics if they wish too. 

 

Even you.

[spidermike007]

He can be quite amusing, if you do not take him seriously. After all, it is hard to take this man seriously, right? What has he actually done? Break treaties that assured the safety of the nation? Start trade wars? Coddle dictators, and alienate our closest allies? Sure the economy is doing relatively well, for the top 20% of Americans. But, that upswing started in 2009, under Obama. The tariffs were actually a huge tax hike on the average American, and the tax cuts meant little for the vast majority. So, what has he actually done?

 

He is a victim. And you know why? He drew first blood, by declaring war on the media, and now the big crybaby cannot handle the barrage of criticism. Do not pick a fight you cannot handle baby Donny. Yes, you are a victim of the media. Because you made them your enemies to win votes. And now you cannot handle it. Why? Because you have very low self esteem, from a lifetime full of thievery, in order to amass a fortune, on the misfortune of others. It is alot easier to make money, when you are willing to steal it. Earning it takes intelligence, cunning, the ability to negotiate, and integrity. Qualities you will never have Mr. Trump. You paper thin skin is evidence of your very low self esteem. Well you know something. Despite all of your bluster, I know how you really feel about yourself. And I feel the same way about you! And so does the majority of the US, and 80-90% of the planet. 

 

And he is not an outsider. That is pure campaign nonsense. He is about as much of an outsider to politics, as Robert DeNiro is an outsider to cinema, and Lee Childs is an outsider to corny and poorly written novels. He is an insider. He has populated his administration with lobbyists, and industry insiders. He has hired only crocodiles, and ignored talent. He brings in only mediocrity, and shuns talent like the plague. 

 

He must be replaced, and he must be locked up. Enjoy your last 19 months. After that, prison baby!

[wombat]

He is certainly a victim of the media.

this is how a winner looks like, no loser socialism but millions of illegal aliens will have their bumps kicked out of the usa, bravo mr. trump .

 

when i compare the cheering trump crowd of thousands, to the loser dem impeachment parade with its few participants, it fills me with joy.

Never heard so many lies, distortions and misrepresentations packed into one speech in my entire life. The only heartening thing about watching the speech were the many many muted responses by the audience to things they knew to be untrue. Even his most die-hard supporters have begun to see through him.

Whats the going rate that this rent a crowd charges

I am not sure of the rate but it must be expensive, sleepy Joe Biden, or any of the other looney left Democrats don’t  seem to be able to afford it, their crowds are pitiful. Another four more years for President Trump, Keep America Great!

[JHolmesJr]

That was as powerful a launch as you could hope for...creepy Joe, warren, boot edge edge etc

hold their rallies in school halls and even then they look empty.

 

This guy has battled open bias from a media that shits on him 24/7

 

He fights for what he promised people and that is rare.

 

I can't see any democrat muppet beating him at this point.

Wrong. But your mistake is understandable. You'd have to go all the way back, and I mean way way back,all the way to the poll just before this latest one when his approval rating was 46%.

When he wins again, can we expect another 4 years of Trump hatred on TVF? The same old Trump bad mantra repeated ad nauseam gets boring after 2 1/2 years of it.

 

Trump getting reelected will not change the fact that he's bad.

More delusion by progressive liberal social activists...Trump has been under assualt by mainstream media, the Democratic machine, and the government swamp every step of the way...

 

Amazing he has been able to accomplish so much in a short period of 2 years...

 

I know...I know...you can not see any benefit to you personally because of your unwavering hatred for the man and his family...

Many of the top Democrats lead Trump in opinion polls in many battleground states. 

Shades of 2016...more disppointment for Dems...????

Under assault? Why

 

accomplished what? Oh yer, record making lack of follow thru

 

the main difference this election, is nobody believed that the American voters could be do gullible last time, and actually vote for the trump. This election should be different, now that the dems know that the voters are challenged, they can stop relying on their good or common sense, and aim their campaigning at the more “challenged” link.

You don't think the Russia probe was an assault on him, his family, and his associates?  If you quit listening to MSNBC & CNN for 5 minutes you might hear something besides Russia! Impeach! Trump is deranged! The country is in great peril because of the liar Trump!

 

Typical liberal BS is to attack their opponents rather than engage in meaningful conversation...you sir are the one challenged...can not see past your own vitriol...sad really...????

Too much noise in that but let's focus on one thing. Does anyone actually think "trump" isn't a LIAR? I don't mean normal political lies. I mean lying to a Guinness World Record level.

The man is an insult to the representation of the Office of the President of the USA. Would be no surprise to me whatsoever that once his presidency ends he will face multiple criminal charges.

"Outsider and victim"..   Holy Crap, what a distortion of words.  Trump is likely to invade Iran before the election to appear indispensible.

He is going berserk, first of all trade wars but that isn't enough damage, now he wants currency wars. Who would want to be president after him, the damage control will be colossal.
