Why are the dems railroading the KFC guy?

I don't get it. He sucks but he's the only ham sandwich with a chance. So why do him the way they are doing him?

They know your IP addresses (phone service/ISP's you use to log on).

One thing the POTUS and the GOP has done is made the average GOP'er believe they can now say and do whatever they want to who ever they want. First thing out of their mouths when you disagree with one is they call you a 'snowflake' or 'libtard'. The 2016 election has made it normal to name call without reprisals. They believe they are now untouchable forever. I have co-workers and friends that walk around and call women, minorities and those with disabilities all kinds of names every day. They'll tell you Trump gave them the go ahead with it. We've even had guys fired from work because they started calling all the women 'dumb broads' all day. We had a deaf girl at work and 3 guys decided to print signed sexual words on papers attached to her work station, knowing 99% wouldnt have a clue to what it meant. They laughed at it and admitted to it. They cited Trump's 'grab her by the p***y' quote as the go ahead to be allowed to do it. 1 guy agreed to 'retire' and leave. The other 2 still have their cases pending.

People shout and scream that their free speech rights are being infringed but really they're not. People really need to take a class on their right to free speech. When they learn just how free their speech is, they'd be flabbergasted.

As far as fake news goes, there's plenty of real fake news out there created by both sides. Trump heard the phrase and ran with it, so did the GOP. They call every organization 'Fake' that they disagree with. There are many fact checking sites out there that debunk just about every claim made by either political party and the POTUS.

I still think it will be Trump/Bloomberg

I think Trump wins very soundly.

I don't understand the Dems and these candidates they are putting up. They need an Obama or Bill Clinton. I think either of them would have won against Trump. It seems like the only candidates they can come up with are deranged or crazy now. Just find a normal guy and run him. It just seems the Dems are just pushing further and further left and they will not win with that. They need a normal dem that is more towards the middle than the extreme left. But, I hope they don't because I don't want them to win, lol.

Oh and as for the Hillary talk, I think she was the worst presidential candidate I have ever seen. Trump is president right now because Hillary was running against him.

Bloomberg makes Jeb "Low Energy" Bush look like a lively sparkplug. He doesn't even look like he cares in his commercial.

his post started out making sense and then it turned in to the typical blame trump and the right for everything wrong with people. sounds like the poster works in a sh*thole and needs to find another job if hes working with people like that.

I've said for a very long time liberals are the best campaigners Republicans could ask for.
Thanks for doing your part.

As far as the election goes, a lot could happen.
With Trump I believe the economy makes or breaks him. If it stays strong I just can't see enough people wanting to rock the boat. While I certainly don't believe Trump takes anywhere near a majority of the African American vote, I could see an upswing from the last election and any loss by the Democrats is not going to help their cause.
With the Dems I think it depends on how nasty the primary goes. I'd be worried about any of the shunned candidate's supporters showing up at the polls. From what I've heard there's a bit of disappointment with the turnout in the primaries already.

I think what gets Trump re elected this time is the Black Vote. in 2016 he received 6% of the black vote. Currently his support with black voters is at 30%. that is HUGE, and can swing the election in certain areas. Well, that, and the horrible candidates being put up. The middle and independents dont want socialism. Dont want to pay for everyones free ride. Dont want to pay for illegals health care. The entire platform right now is Orange man bad, Illegals and free stuff good. Sanders recent take on bail is the peak of insanity. His Hispanic approval is also up from 26% to 37%. Not as big of a jump, but just as important. Simply put, people are doing better and like it.

Another demographic people are not looking at are the folk who are 2-4 years away from retirement. That's a large number of people. Watching your 401K grow by double digits it huge. I have several co workers and an uncle who have been life long democrats tell me they would be dumb not to vote for Trump. My uncle told me that Trump has pushed his retirement up by 2 years. I think Trump wins 65% to 35%, CNN should be fun to watch on election night.

I agree with most of what you said, but I don't think he'll get anywhere near the level of blacks votes you quoted. I think the Trump Campaign would be ecstatic if they could even sniff 20%

Spot on as well. I'm guessing there will more than a few Democrats looking over their shoulders in the voting booth before they pull that lever for Trump. JFK's Democratic Party is dead and gone.

If they could that would be the largest for a repub in decades, but the 30% is current polls. Thats from emmerson, rasmussen, and Marist. I would be shocked at 15% to be honest

It has been dead and gone for a long time. If Bill Clinton ran as a Republican today, with the same platform and policies, the left would consider him a racist, sexist, war monger, Hate monger right wing zealot.

I have seen people say he is stripping away our constitution. I ask what articles, I get silence. I have heard them say he is taking away our rights. I ask which one. Silence. I was a democrat for a decade, then switched to Independent, and now as far left as they have gone, I cant find any dems that I support any longer. Its sad really, because We used to at least have a choice.

And this is why a lot of Democrats are leaving the party.
