Trump got into office because of the failed policies of the democratic party.
Trump got into office because of an Electoral College that permits the majority of actual voters to lose. The majority of Americans did not vote for Trump, and now a supermajority of them disapprove of his dismal attempt to lead.
The majority of Americans did not vote for the loser you supported either.
Yet Dump was the bigger loser, numerically. And, wow, but does it show in the way he behaves now. He's got the mentality and behavior of someone who knows he's illegitimate and so do all his toadies.
He won 30 of the 50 states and won in the states that counted. Your loser candidate got fewer votes where it counted and Trump receved the majority if the votes in the electoral college. Your loser didnt even campaign in some states that were crucial to her winning.
It has been over a year now and its high that you grow up and stop whining abiut how it usnt fair that your loser candidate did not win by the rules in place. Skirting the CoC [ph]
Donald Trump is the most morally and ethically corrupt president we have ever seen.
Naaah. That's like saying Steph Curry is the best basketball player ever. It's the argument of a teenage kid who doesn't remember Bill Russell or Oscar Robertson.
We had LBJ. We had Nixon. We had US Grant and John Tyler.
Trump got into office because of an Electoral College that permits the majority of actual voters to lose. The majority of Americans did not vote for Trump, and now a supermajority of them disapprove of his dismal attempt to lead.
here we go again. "The EC needs to go" rhetoric is old. You supported it 100% when Clinton had the 95% chance of winning. Then Trump started racking up the votes and suddenly the EC has to go. Give it a fucking rest. The EC worked as it is designed to work. Just because YOUR side come out on the losing side doesn't mean it has to go.
You can't even spell the President's name, and yet you expect us to think you can compare numbers?
But, lets look at the numbers, shall we:
Nominee
Donald Trump
Hillary Clinton
Party
Republican
Democratic
Home state
New York
New York
Running mate
Mike Pence
Tim Kaine
Electoral vote
304
227
Looking at the vote count, it looks like Clinton was the biggest loser, numerically. And I know the popular vote was higher for Clinton, blah blah, blah. You all won't let that go, just like the Trump recording from a decade ago you hold so dear as "damning evidence" that Trump is a womanizer. But the popular vote means NOTHING when it comes to the Presidential election.
Yes, we know that the left thinks the Electoral College should be done away with. You all have whined about that since the election. Just keep in mind, you all were all for it when Clinton had the 95% chance to win. Wasn't that about the same time Clinton stated "Any one who doesn't accept the results of an election is a threat to democracy"? Well, who is the threat? We all know who that statement was targeted to. But now that things didn't work out the way she thought, it revealed who the threat really is. You all have been throwing tantrums like a toddler that needs a nap. And yet, you all expect to be taken seriously.
Sorry, but the people dont elect the President, the States elect the President. That is how its done so the majority Tyranny can not rule. If it were popular vote then 2 or 3 states would rule over the rest of the nation.. Not happening.
I find it stunning that this very simple constitutional fact still needs to be explained to Hillary's supporters.
Unfortunately, we are forced to deal with a lot of stupidity here. The national polls were accurate within the margin of error.
National polls were generally correct and accurate by historical standards. National polls were among the most accurate in estimating the popular vote since 1936. Collectively, they indicated that Clinton had about a 3 percentage point lead, and they were basically correct; she ultimately won the popular vote by 2 percentage points.
The national polls today show Trump is the most unpopular first year president in history.
It doesn't matter how many times the right wing on this site claims the polls werent accurate. It's not true, - the national polls predicted the popular vote pretty accurately last November, which is what they were intended to do.
No that would be obama and his pieceacrap administration....we are finding out just how corrupt since the whole Russian collusion story and the dossier story fell apart..then there's the whole Clinton Foundation thing, the Uranium and Fusion One deals. the DOJ thingy and the FBI "insuring" Trump would be neutered somehow in his ADM...we just getting started.

Word salad seems to be the favorite food of the Right these days. How does that sour stuff taste Volfan? Here's some real hard questions to answer because, I'm going to ask you for FACTS to back up your claims in your comment. What does the Clinton Foundation have to do with Republicans in the House holding private meetings and, hearings to try to discredit Comey and, his testimony? And, what about the Uranium One deal? Please be specific in your answers, no word salad, no Trump talking points and, make sure that there are verifiable facts.
Haaha. Unreal. The shift the blame game is old. Believe me, as much as you all hate Obama, there would have been something by now. We have now the most unethical president that I can remember and the people on his team can only deflect to others. Never once hold him to account for the nasty things he says or does. Sadly people with zero scruples, zero dignity, zero pride, zero moral standards, now think they can act and do as our new resident in the WH. Enjoy. Take pride in the common lack of dignity, the bully atmosphere, the giving away of our nation to the highest bidder. Now we now all get to enjoy. Hell I can grab a pussy just because I am famous...oh yeah...if I am a dem I will be disciplined. If I am a rep I just deny.
Trump got into office because of an Electoral College that permits the majority of actual voters to lose. The majority of Americans did not vote for Trump, and now a supermajority of them disapprove of his dismal attempt to lead.
Sorry, we all have to play by the rules. Most of those who voted against Trump were out in CA and their vote was a thank you vote to the democratic party - for letting them into the country.
Well said. I'm sure there are many more that come close like allowing Hezbollah to import drugs into the country, so as not to offend Iran during the Iran deal negotiations. Something we are just finding out about. Then there is the case to be made of how he divided this nation. As more and more is revealed about what Obama and his operatives in government did behind the scenes - we can now understand why Hillary Clinton apologized to him when she lost. We weren't supposed to know about all the scandalous activity.
We did know about the IRS, the State Department and his radical DOJ, but there was so much more
Good Lord...talk about "word salad"! A year long investigation and what do they have? A top foreign national Dem staffer HACKED the DNC, Debbie Wasserface paid him 300K to do it and he was arrested as he tried to flee the country, you have the top FBI and DOJ people stonewalling an investigation - that they made to try and fine something on Trump (and so far, after a year, nothing), and top DOJ and FBI people so obviously biased in their by their own admission in FOIA documents including texts and emails, not to mention the previous statement above...but you keep on talking word salad, k?
FACTS? There has been plenty of facts given here and elsewhere, you just don't want to acknowledge that.
Where did you get that definition? From a liberals dictionary of redefined words needed to support your goofy-assed narrative?
The actual definition according to my Merriam Webster Law dictionary:
a provision requiring a supermajority vote — say, 80 % of the common shares instead of the usual bare majority rule
Or as far as US congress is concerned it's a 2/3rds majority vote. So that would be between 67-80%. Keep dreaming if you think you have that across the board and all the time in the real world.
Maybe, maybe not. I do know that clinton would have been the wirst most corrupt and underhanded the world gas ever seen. It is a bkessing that she lost the election.
They are the ones who elected Trump, not the voters
You are wrong, the voters did elect Trump. The voters of 30 states voted for a slate of electors that were pledged to vote for Trump in the Electoral college. That is how we elect the president in this country. It is how we have elected the president for over 200 years. Deal with ut!
Yes, pretty much everywhere with huge swaths of vacant land with tiny populations of white Christians voted for Trump. Our government is for the people, by the people, and all the places where most Americans live voted overwhelmingly for Democrats which is why Donald lost the popular vote by more than 3 million. But you go ahead and get giddy at the map that represents as much vacant land as it does the vacant minds that sparsely inhabit it. The fact remains, the majority of Americans much preferred our last president and are embarrassed by the narcissistic incompetent moron currently occupying the oval office.
But you go ahead and get giddy at the map that represents as much vacant land as it does the vacant minds that sparsely inhabit it.
Nice to know how much you respect your fellow Americans. You do have it wro g though. Those voters that truly have "vacant minds" are in the blye areas of the map. Those contain the people that are easily led and have difficulty thinking and surviving on their own.
Made that up from nothing. I guess pointing out that vast tracts of vitually vacant land is now un- American, next it will be that pointing out the horrendous corruption that is trump will also be un-American. Circle the wagons.
I just hope someone will come in here and "Make America" great and number one again....and not continue the Apology for......Oh wait.....I think we have what I was looking for.
Not where I live. Since the "new guy" took over, everybody here is FINALLY seeing a raises that are long overdue, money is finally coming in to get things fixed, they have the ability to do their jobs to the fullest. I'd say VERY FEW miss Obama.
Obama left with a 62% approval rating. He had a 68% approval rating by the end of his first year.
And you didn't even get him a cookie.
Trump's most recent approval rating is 44%
And he's STILL President.
Data contradicts your anecdote.
No it doesn't. I live on a military installation. The people WHERE I LIVE were shit on for eight years by Obama. Salary raises that barely did anything, budget cuts leaving much of the equipment and facilities on the installation broken and unusable, budget cuts to bad that medical care professionals were let go. ROE for combat was so restrictive we weren't even permitted to have a round chambered in our weapons.
So no, your data does NOT contradict my statement.
It's even laughable that you even consider a poll a reliable source of information.
Obama left with a 62% approval rating. He had a 68% approval rating by the end of his first year.
Nobody cares what Obama's approval rating was. He's gone "forward" and is busy building a basketball court and a sledding hill as his "presidential library".
Since the "new guy" took over, everybody here is FINALLY seeing a raises that are long overdue, money is finally coming in to get things fixed, they have the ability to do their jobs to the fullest.
Trump hasn't passed any legislation to fix those problems.
Let's throw out some meaningless poll numbers and claim something factual that is at best an educated guess and at worst just a designed result by the pollsters and their wording of the questions. There is only kind of poll that matters and that is the one where a person steps into a booth, mails in a ballot, or mails in an absentee ballot to vote for person A, person B, etc. And, that poll only becomes relevant for President every 4 years.
This is in response to the most idiotic comment I saw this week here, claiming that anyone who supported Obama is a traitor.
if everyone who supports trump can be called a Nazi = then everyone who supports obama can be called a traitor.
that is how the cookie always crumbles...
The Nazis and Ku Kluxers weren't praising Obama at Charlottesville. This is what it is. Read em' and weep. Trumpers, every single one.
Obama bots... traitors every single one.
funny how the left likes to forget 7 million obama voters voted trump...
so they hated obama but voted obama into office just to bring us trump 8yrs later? is that how it goes?
ya'll are simply too funny
Donald Trump is the most morally and ethically corrupt president we have ever seen.
even for Obama... the 7 million Obama voters who elected trump are too painful to think about.
is Obama saying hatred towards him/his policy turned those 7 million voters against him / the left? if so... obama is correct.
Cheers

Supermajority? Hilarious! You guys really crack me up.
The nonsense you come up with ....
He won 30 of the 50 states and won in the states that counted. Your loser candidate got fewer votes where it counted and Trump receved the majority if the votes in the electoral college. Your loser didnt even campaign in some states that were crucial to her winning.

NOUN
a number that is much more than half of a total, especially in a vote.
Trump's approval rating fluctuates between 33% and 46%. It's fair to say that a supermajority of Americans disapprove of the job this moron is doing.
Naaah. That's like saying Steph Curry is the best basketball player ever. It's the argument of a teenage kid who doesn't remember Bill Russell or Oscar Robertson.
We had LBJ. We had Nixon. We had US Grant and John Tyler.
That was a new thing for the 2016 election.
Oh.....
Wait........
How was Obama a traitor in any way? Are you admitting to being a birther?
Birther? Is that a bad word?
here we go again. "The EC needs to go" rhetoric is old. You supported it 100% when Clinton had the 95% chance of winning. Then Trump started racking up the votes and suddenly the EC has to go.

And you are the biggest broken record on NT.
Great! And, great, again.

it is fair to say the super majority of americans know the polls are bogus or Hillary would have won.

By the way,
For those short on attention span, 2 mins
Try again, but with facts this time.
No uranium was given to Russia, here's the truth if your interested.
Louis Farrakhan endorsed Barak Obama and Farrakhan & his group are a hate group.
So the same question goes for the radical Obama:
Are candidates responsible for anyone who chooses to endorse them?
He's accomplishing what needs to be done. I'll put his morals up against Obama and all his leftist surrogates any time
Sorry, we all have to play by the rules. Most of those who voted against Trump were out in CA and their vote was a thank you vote to the democratic party - for letting them into the country.
Evidently it was a good word when the question involved Barry Goldwater or Ted Cruz
Well said. I'm sure there are many more that come close like allowing Hezbollah to import drugs into the country, so as not to offend Iran during the Iran deal negotiations.

So your reality revolves around far right wing innuendo, propaganda and obvious lies? How sad for you.
You would be in the minority. Globally, Trump is held in contempt by all actual thinkers.
Learn to spell and I still won't take you seriously.
Herr Hauptsturmfuhrer you are getting even nastier in your work.

Thank goodness for the electoral college, or we would have elections based on 2 or 3 states "Wants" only.
I love when Liberals show their own racism, and they don't know....or don't care....that they are racist.
I see Liberals are still digging their own graves, and just can't stop.
Stupid IS as Stupid keeps doing, even after the constant losses since 2010.
"Trump will not have his place until long after his exit poll, which is still 7 years from now and then we still have to wait."
Trump is going to be re-elected ?
Cool Beans !
Nice to know how much you respect your fellow Americans. You do have it wro g though. Those voters that truly have "vacant minds" are in the blye areas of the map. Those contain the people that are easily led and have difficulty thinking and surviving on their own.
34% of the population agree, run with that!
Racism? What orifice did you pull that out of?
Still 3 years to go.
Run with that !
Exactly !
Made that up from nothing. I guess pointing out that vast tracts of vitually vacant land is now un- American, next it will be that pointing out the horrendous corruption that is trump will also be un-American. Circle the wagons.
I dunno. We went for years with "anyone who disagrees with him is a racist", so the competition in the stupidity contest is pretty intense.
OMG that's the truth!
No, anyone who supported this unqualified unheard of nothing from nowhere is an IDIOT! Traitor status is a little harder to determine.
Yes, I do
I'll never miss any of 'em !
I just hope someone will come in here and "Make America" great and number one again....and not continue the Apology for......Oh wait.....I think we have what I was looking for.
Well hot damn !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not where I live. Since the "new guy" took over, everybody here is FINALLY seeing a raises that are long overdue, money is finally coming in to get things fixed, they have the ability to do their jobs to the fullest. I'd say VERY FEW miss Obama.
Yep, its the same where i live. Few miss him here, not in the least. Now Detroit is a different story. I'm sure they miss their sugar daddy in Motown.

What is laughable is that this was the best response you could come up with to Spartacus.
Again, more anecdotes rather than hard data from you.
I have to break it down so even a liberal can understand.
Seeing as how I provided actual numbers while all you provided was a story, that reply is laughable yet not unexpected.
You provided poll results. Nothing reputable.
Nobody cares what Obama's approval rating was. He's gone "forward" and is busy building a basketball court and a sledding hill as his "presidential library".
Trump hasn't passed any legislation to fix those problems.
In many of the cases that we are seeing, legislation isn't required.
does not take legislation to clean up after BO.
just a mop and a pen.
cheers
Same!! My sis in law got a bonus for the first time in years.
Funny! I am certain you would like for it to be true!
You have proof that it isn't?
If you REALLY wanted to show countries that favor BO over Trump you should have listed Iran, North Korea and Afghanistan.
this was a joke seed, right? Did the author forget the s/ or something?
Obama is more popular that Trump.
Deal with it Trumpsters.
Oh wait, you CAN'T.
Good unless every scum sucking socialist hates his guts he isn’t doing a good job. There’s more idiots than Einstein’s out there.

In a way....YOU created the voters FOR Mr. Trump ......sooooooo..... essentially........YOU DID create Trump Mr. Obama !
Figured out how to get that umbrella under the archway yet Mr. Obama ?
