Look - I'm tired of people saying that all people in DC are part of the swamp. That's simply not true. The reason why DC has become a swamp is because of the slimy fucks that the rest of the country keeps voting into office and SENDING to DC.
Exactly. The people at his rallies are all paid to be enthusiastic supporters. Anyone that doesn't toe the line is removed because Trump's pathetic ego can't handle it.
There is a long tradition of the Dems doing that very thing
You always say this outlandish stuff as if it's fact. Please link something that indicates a "long tradition" of Dems doing that. You say shit without linking anything even close to fact. If you don't know how to link articles and/or graphs, then say so. It's easy.
The political fact-checking site Politifact gave the claim that there was "serious voter fraud" in California a"Pants On Fire"rating at the time.
"Elections officials and nonpartisan observers in California said there were no widespread reports of voter fraud," Politifact's Chris Nichols wrote. "The state has some of the most stringent voter verification laws in the country. Allegations of fraud are so rare that Los Angeles County, the state's largest county, does not track them."
On Thursday, The Brennan Center for Justice at New York University tweeted in response to Trump's remarks, "study after study has shown that voter fraud is vanishingly rare, and voter impersonation is nearly non-existent."
Trump's claims have been widely criticized, by Democrats, Republicans and especially by election officials, who worry unsubstantiated claims about fraud will hurt voter confidence in elections.
Officials are already worried about the state of voter confidence heading into the 2018 midterm elections, aselection security concernshave come into the spotlighton Capitol Hilland nationally.
In January, the president dissolved the commission he set up to investigate claims of voter fraud. [Emphasis mine.]
"It's sad the president continues to recycle his same old lies," said California Secretary of State Alex Padilla, in a statement to NPR on Thursday. "His rants dishonor the thousands of local elections officials and volunteers, from across the political spectrum, who work hard to ensure the integrity of our elections."
'Exactly. The people at his rallies are all paid to be enthusiastic supporters. Anyone that doesn't toe the line is removed because Trump's pathetic ego can't handle'it.
Seems like some here think you don't toe the line. I see this comment is flagged. Why, I have no idea.
Possibly they don't like the truth.
I wonder how many people who show up at these 'rallies' are promised to be paid and then stiffed, just like the towns who are left holding the bag for his security, and everything else, every time this turd holds one of his 'rallies' in their city.
It was a rhetorical question as you and I both know it's a simple lie.
I call bullshit. He HAS had paid attendees.
Thousands of union workers at a multibillion-dollar petrochemical plant being built outside Pittsburgh were given the choice of attending a speech by President Trump on Tuesday or staying away — and losing some of their pay for the week.
“Your attendance is not mandatory,” one of the construction site’s contractors wrote in rules for the speech that were shared with its employees, according to The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, which first reported on the matter. But the rules said that only those who arrived at 7 a.m., had their work IDs scanned and then stood waiting for the president for several hours would get paid for the time . [emphasis mine.]
“NO SCAN, NO PAY,” a supervisor for the contractor wrote, according to the paper.
The president’s appearance at the Royal Dutch Shell facility in Beaver County, where natural gas will be converted into plastic for a wide range of products, was publicized as a speech about energy, but it was hard to distinguish it from a standard campaign rally. Mr. Trump repeatedly targeted rivals and aired his political grievances.
In politics, "astroturfing" is the term for hiring people to attend a rally or event in order to lend the appearance of grassroots support. Astroturfing is typically contracted out to political consulting firms, much like Gotham GR. The practice is considered bad form.
Here's the full email from Extra Mile, with contact information redacted.

" ignorant of both facts, and just spreading shit.
Open the cites. Just spreading shit without citations is Wally's domain. He says the democrats have shipped in illegals to vote. Proven wrong, of course.
What a sack of shit trump is. He gets a presidential box for Game 5 of the world series, invites friends from work and a couple of die hard supporters, leaves his young son at home. My son would have been the FIRST person on the invite list.
When I was a kid, I didn't much care for baseball either, but would have, (and did), go with my dad to ball games just so I could hang out with him. As usual, you completely missed the point.
He gets a presidential box for Game 5 of the world series, invites friends from work and a couple of die hard supporters,
What's wrong with a sitting POTUS having a presidential box and inviting people? Many presidents have done this. There are photos of Wilson, Coolidge, FDR, and others with special treatment.
leaves his young son at home.
I highly doubt that Barron was left unattended or unprotected.
My son would have been the FIRST person on the invite list.
Many parents keep their children on a schedule on school nights. And ... not all children are interested in baseball.
Damn, you had to go to a baseball game to be with your dad? I feel sorry for you. My dad and I had much better things to do than sit in the stands at Ebbets Field or Yankee Stadium sweating our asses off.
My dad worked 14 hours a day, every day. You going to slam him for that too? Running your own business is a lot of work so I valued the time I could spend with my dad. Apparently you didn't like spending much time with your father.
You ain't kidding! The hospital I work for sponsors the Braves and their stadium, I can get 2 tickets in a nice section for free, but buying an extra 3 for our girls and stadium snacks will run us about $200, just in regular season!
Reminds me of the time my daughter met her first automatic flush toilet. She was about 4 and the thing flushed itself and it scared her. Like the bad mom I am, I laughed.
leaving Donald, clapping for himself, looking from the field to the monitor for too many more seconds.....Yay, Donald...
He's got a teenaged son and he didn't take him to a World Series game? WTF?? Oh wait. My bad. Barron's not really the Traitor-In-Chief's and Melania's son. Or is he? I know he's Melania's son ... together ... who she loves very much.
Trump believed he was paying Flutie too much money, but he didn’t want to be the bad guy. Enter his fixer, John Barron.
Barron, identified as an executive vice president in the Trump Organization, was quoted by several news organizations, including the New York Times, as saying, “When a guy goes out and spends more money than a player is worth, he expects to get partial reimbursement from the other (USFL) owners.”
When I made a phone call to Trump Tower for a bigger story about the state of the USFL, I got put through to that executive vice president, John Barron. The moment I heard Barron speak, I knew.
After he made the point, several times over, that Flutie was making more money than one owner should have to pay, I said, “You know, John, you sound an awful lot like Donald.”
There was no long delay, no hint of concern of being unmasked.
“Donald and I went to school together, so we have a lot of the same inflections,” he said.
The conversation didn’t last much longer.
The next day, I realized I needed to confirm how to spell Barron — the name had also been in the press as “Baron” — and get his exact title, so I called back. It got even more interesting. The secretary who answered gave me three different spellings, and there was confusion over his title. She asked, “What did Donald tell you yesterday?” I said, “I wasn’t speaking to Donald. I was speaking to John Barron.”
When I asked if John Barron was real, she told me he “absolutely” existed and added, “You can come in and meet him sometime. He’s been with us a long time.”
Earlier, another secretary told me Barron had been with the organization only a short time. Both secretaries knew the truth. I did, too. I also knew I had to pick one of the three spellings, so I went with Baron, but pointed out in the story that I’d been given options.
Look at what I replied to, the "joke" that Melania wished she were barren rather than have had her son. You gave it a thumbs up. But go ahead and keep calling Trump a terrible person.
President trump going into the belly of the beast and getting loudly booed by a 90% Hillary voting area within 24 hours of killing Baghdadi was like the best thing that could happen to him in the rest of America.
Your comment reminds me of a true story. A coworker of mine was legally named Please Please. Of course I had to ask her the origin of it and this is what she told me. "My mother died giving birth to me and her last words were "Name my baby please please." So they did. The corker is that she and her husband adopted a boy and a girl. The girl's legal name is Little Please and the boy's legal name is Different.
“Donald and I went to school together, so we have a lot of the same inflections,” he said.
My best friend in school was black, but I didn't go around saying "aight". Trump knew he was busted and that is why the conversation stalled. The secretary basically confirmed it. As far as her spelling the name wrong three times, she was perfect to work for Trump.
He'll soon be tweeting, "They love me here in DC at the World Series!!. They love me everywhere! I am the most beloved and respected president in history! No president has ever been more admired and respected!"
Trump deserved the reaction he got. As far as the sign goes, sporting events should not used as political platforms even if I agree with the sign and I do as a vet.
U.S. federal budget deficit runs at nearly $1 trillion in 2019
The numbers: The U.S. government ran a budget deficit of just under $1 trillion — $984 billion — in the fiscal year that ended in September. It was the largest shortfall since 2012, and was 26% more than the fiscal 2018 deficit of $779 billion.
How's that BOOMING ECONOMY, oh yeah...TAX BREAKS FOR THE RICH and the deficit EXPLODED....
The numbers: The U.S. government ran a budget deficit of just under $1 trillion — $984 billion — in the fiscal year that ended in September. It was the largest shortfall since 2012
So....your point here....in response to a comment about Obama deficits...is to produce a quote stating Obama deficits were larger than the current one.
That fucking retard in the WH said he would pay off the debt but has already added 3T. So yea, we have a right to call him out for it. Obama was handed an economy that was in the shitter and it took money to stabilize it. What's trumps excuse? He was handed a great economy and STILL added 3T in 4 years? Why?
Obama left the nation's economic conditions in much better shape ( it's condition ) considering ( it's ) stature the previous administration engineered.
Can we please all agree that this experiment of having a dumb TV host and shady real estate developer with no government knowledge, 6 bankruptcies, 5 kids from 3 marriages, 23 charges of sexual assault, and 35,000 lawsuits as president is not going well at all? #LockHimUp
Well, someone had to 'pay down' the Cheney/Bush debt/ deficits---and of course it would be the taxpayers. Who did you think would ante up? Carlyle Group, Wall Street, Hedge Funds, Big Banks, America's patriotic billionaire cliques?
Get real. This is Supply Side America. Nobody pays anything except us.
So....your point here....in response to a comment about Obama deficits...is to produce a quote stating Obama deficits were larger than the current one.
In 2009 two terms of a Republican administration that had started two unnecessary unfunded wars gave us an annual deficit of $1.4 trillion.
By 2016 President Obama had reduced that deficit by 65% to $585 billion.
By 2019 inept Donald has increased the annual deficit nearly 50% to $1.09 trillion with projections for 2020 at $1.101 trillion and has grown the debt by over $3 trillion. His claims of fiscal responsibility to his fans during the 2016 campaign were nothing but lies, but I've no doubt he'll use them again for the 2020 campaign to prove just how mind numbingly stupid anyone would have to be to vote for him again.
By 2016 President Obama had reduced that deficit by 65% to $585 billion.
OK, but in 2012...four years after he was elected...the deficit was apparently still larger than it is now.
The larger point being that there are a lot....and I mean a LOT... of ways to compare Obama very favorably to Trump. She should probably choose one that is mathematically sound.
Well, someone had to 'pay down' the Cheney/Bush debt/ deficits
So....you "pay down" deficits by increasing deficits? Riiiiiight.
---and of course it would be the taxpayers.
The half of us that pay them, yes.
Who did you think would ante up? Carlyle Group, Wall Street, Hedge Funds, Big Banks, America's patriotic billionaire cliques?
When we deregulated the banks in 1999, I thought it was a terrible idea. Apparently I was the only one in America who remembered what the three letters "R.T.C" stood for.
Get real. This is Supply Side America. Nobody pays anything except us.
She should probably choose one that is mathematically sound.
If you'll look at my link you'll see that nearly every year since Obama took office he reduced the annual deficit (only 2012 and 2016 did it increase) and 2012 it was actually at $1.087 trillion compared to 2019 which is at $1.091 trillion.
The point is, Trump ran on supposed fiscal conservatism and a promise to reduce the debt and deficit. Since taking office he has only increased both the debt and deficit, and not just a little but dramatically. He has nearly doubled the deficit in just 3 years back to highs not seen since the ones Obama inherited from the last fiscally irresponsible Republican administration. But don't worry, I've no doubt Trump will lose in 2020, a Democrat will be President again and Republicans will go back to claiming they care about the debt and deficit again as if it's all the democrats fault. It's what they do, run up the debt with huge give-a-ways to corporations and the wealthy and then jump ship to go work for those corporations while blaming Democrats who end up cleaning up their mess and having to make the hard choices in cutting spending or increasing taxes to pay for Republicans fiscal irresponsibility.
When the shit hits the fan they turn around and blame the other side.
no, the GOP would never
turn that fan around, and say, blow that shit in that Dem face, cause it's about face, when they in place,
and a face they should never be able to save after allowing Trumpp to remain, and fooling those he enslaved to a twitter chained to an anchor dragging us like drugged,
to our bottom feeders delight, sucking off the suckers, of whom did bite, the little one in our White Power House of Mirrors and other Fun
House Horrors, none would/could have imagined or imaged, in our White House of Mirrors,
yet Republicans with veto proof numbers erased the stained Glass/Steagle act in a play
Republicans did not possess a veto-proof majority at the time. 75% of Democrats voted for the measure. But don't let facts get in the way of your partisanship.
If you'll look at my link you'll see that nearly every year since Obama took office he reduced the annual deficit (only 2012 and 2016 did it increase) and 2012 it was actually at $1.087 trillion compared to 2019 which is at $1.091 trillion.
Already familiar with the data. Didn't need the link, but thank you for providing it.
The point is, Trump ran on supposed fiscal conservatism and a promise to reduce the debt and deficit.
He also ran on the promise of a giant wall with the label "Hecho in Mexico". Nobody cares what he promises. I don't understand how we're nearly 3 years into his presidency and people still live in denial about how he won.
But the point is really that liberals, in general, need to be able to say stuff that isn't mathematically preposterous. It shouldn't be that hard to criticize Trump or defend Obama with math that doesn't require pixie dust and unicorns.
Since taking office he has only increased both the debt and deficit, and not just a little but dramatically. He has nearly doubled the deficit in just 3 years back to highs not seen since the ones Obama inherited from the last fiscally irresponsible Republican administration.
So out of curiosity, where do you stand on the ultimate deficit warp engine known as Bernicare?
But don't worry, I've no doubt Trump will lose in 2020, a Democrat will be President again and Republicans will go back to claiming they care about the debt and deficit again as if it's all the democrats fault.
And Democrats will go back to telling us deficits don't matter and it's all the previous Republican's fault. It's an exceedingly predictable pattern.
But before that...they have to nominate somebody who isn't a raving nutter.
Republicans did not possess a veto-proof majority at the time. 75% of Democrats voted for the measure. But don't let facts get in the way of your partisanship.
Yes, i mis spoke about a stick you try and wedge between the front spoken, about a back wheeland deal, you attempt to twist, as i only use pretzel logic when assaulting chips.
But i'll own up to mispoken speakage, and agree Dems, bought and paid , by the Lobbyists who conquer and invade our politics me off with the way our pay to play system works for the ones who can purchase candidates who produce Laws to benefit only the few who benefit.
But, The President, Bill Clinton WAS AGAINST the repeal, was he not ?
Was the bill written and sponsered by Democrats or Republicans ?, as i believe you know it was 3 Republicans who wrote it.
And Big Money Bought Pols on both sides of the aisle, in our rigged two no surprise party system of a Down Fall.
.
Does my partisan view allow YOU to be blinded...
cause you are constantly defending the GOP and Be
cause the way i've found it, you are confounded with a dumfounded way of
excusing Trumpp,
where there is NOT AN EXCUSE for that blunder of Thunderous proportions as he performs abortion after abortion on our Constitution,
Reputation, Rule of Law, See but not really Saw, purveyor of all he didn't say er,
as
it's all Fake News, Witch were cast by Cauldron to Arms by him stirring the pot blackened to incite the White Power Kettle 1 team of ignorant bufoons
who can't yet determine a fact that they were just lied to, to be the fact,
THEY WERE JUST LIED TO !
.
Lost Respect for those who i know , know better, wouldn't and shouldn't you....NO ?!?
Clinton waffled back and forth. By the time he signed it he supported it. He later came back and said it was one of the biggest regrets of his presidency.
The point here is that blind partisanship is stupid. Accusing "the other side" of some sort of villainy while your own side is actively involved in the same deed is ridiculous.
The Clinton impeachment is the perfect example of this. You currently have partisan conservatives screaming about a Democratic witch hunt, looking for a reason to impeach the president. But what was the investigation of Clinton, if not a witch hunt? How much dirt did they have to dig up before they caught him in a perjury about something most people didn't care about in the first place?
So our choice is to participate in the foolishness or step back and think for ourselves while the headless chickens run around and squawk about whatever nonsense has them riled up today.
cause the way i've found it, you are confounded with a dumfounded way of excusing Trumpp,
Cite me excusing Trump.
It is a further measure of stupidity when partisanship blinds a person so fully that they mistake anyone who fails to join their own chorus as some sort of enemy in league with the hated enemy.
I'd have to look, but since you hail from a red state..... most likely you're one of the "taker" "half of us." Jack_Tx.
*sigh*
That's ignorant on several fronts. First, Texas is a net payer of federal tax. Secondly, my own personal contributions will depend on my own personal income. Taxes are my single largest expense every year.
Yet he seems to think any weird promise he made must be kept..to appease his base.
I stopped guessing what he thinks sometime back in the 1980s.
I think his base is still resentful of a lot of things, in some cases justifiably so, and Trump has done more to give voice to that resentment than any other candidate.
Resentful of what though. I could think of a few things yet they would sound like I was calling them racist.
Nah, it's not really race-related anymore. Don't get me wrong...a lot of them are racists...but this is different.
The 10-second encapsulation would be when Hillary used the word "deplorable". She finally said out loud what most of them have known for decades, which is that college-educated elites view working-class people as lesser human beings.
These guys work their asses off in jobs I thank the Lord daily that I don't have to do. If I had to get up on Texas roofs in July to fix A/C units, I'd have heat stroke before 9am. But these guys get up, get it done, and do the best they can to provide for their families.
Meanwhile, both Republicans and Democrats have been proclaiming how great NAFTA is for decades while millions of manufacturing jobs have migrated to Mexico. They wanted the TPP after millions more jobs have gone to China/Malaysia etc. They watch China manipulate its currency to artificially suppress prices for Chinese goods so they would have a competitive advantage over American manufacturers, while their own government has done nothing at all to protect them.
Here in the states, it's tougher and tougher to support their families because wages are suppressed by millions of illegal immigrants with fake documentation.
If they complain, they get called racist. If they point out that "identifying" as a girl doesn't actually make you one, they're called homophobic. If they point out that women can actually afford a co-pay for birth control, they're misogynistic bastards engaged in a "war on women".
They're expected to pay taxes to fund college grants for kids whose parents don't work, while they can't afford to send their own kids. Then, kids who did go to college and took out $200k in loans to study art history want the deplorables to pay them off.
Some are able to scrape up enough to send their kids to college, where those kids are taught that their dads are the root of all America's problems but they're just too old and ignorant to understand.
So yeah...they've had about enough.
Resentment does not make for sound policy.
No. It doesn't. But it's usually not created by sound policy, either.
The problem that concerns me is the lack of any visible source of sound policy. We seem pulled between the Trump/Bannon right and the Sanders/Warren left, with AOC even further out in la-la land.
Yeah but I think most of what you listed has been going on for decades.
One thing I will say is jobs going to Mexico. Kind of ironic imo, that people complain when they come here for jobs and complain when jobs are made for them at their home country.
Sort of counter productive.
I agree about the extremes. Shows me people like showmanship and bullshit over substance.
Yeah but I think most of what you listed has been going on for decades.One thing I will say is jobs going to Mexico. Kind of ironic imo, that people complain when they come here for jobs and complain when jobs are made for them at their home country.
If they're taking your job, it doesn't really matter if the new guy works in Mexico or in the US. It's not lost on them that accounting or finance or sales or upper management jobs don't get impacted.
I agree about the extremes. Shows me people like showmanship and bullshit over substance.
Clickbait.
We didn't used to have a scenario where you chose your own news sources based on how outrageous the headline was. Starting a media outlet was expensive and TV and radio stations were licensed. You had 3-5 TV news outlets and usually 1-2 newspapers in any city.
Now, you can be a "journalist" in 30 minutes if you know how to set up a blog and buy a domain name. "News" is everywhere, and if you want people to view your version of it, you have to stand out.
Nobody cares what he promises. I don't understand how we're nearly 3 years into his presidency and people still live in denial about how he won.But the point is really that liberals, in general, need to be able to say stuff that isn't mathematically preposterous.
Does anyone else see the stunning hypocrisy in those two lines? And the fact he put them one after the other. He starts with "Nobody cares" about Donald's lies, then goes immediately into "But it's Liberals that shouldn't say stuff that isn't true! That's the point we all need to remember!". It would be really funny if it weren't such a sad but apt example of the ongoing battle between conservatives and liberals.
Failing to understand the difference between "true" and "mathematically preposterous", I see.
Here. Try this:
Example...."if you like your doctor, you can keep him". Not true, but also not mathematically preposterous.
Example 2.... "read my lips...no new taxes". Also not true, but not mathematically preposterous.
Example 3... "I didn't inhale". Preposterous, but not mathematically preposterous.
As opposed to...
$55-$90 trillion for the Green New Deal. Mathematically preposterous.
Bernie Sanders says we can pay for his $40 trillion Medicare for with $15 trillion in tax increases... which is 50% more than we collect now and 60% short of what he needs. Mathematically preposterous.
Warren's wealth tax raising $2.75 trillion over 10 years. Mathematically preposterous.
There is also "scientifically preposterous", which is where far right Republicans tend to dominate.
Now... we have Mayor Pete who (to my knowledge) has yet to go down the mathematically preposterous route. Biden does a very good job at avoiding the mathematically preposterous. Even Kamala Harris has backed down from some of her extremist/preposterous stances. So the Democrats have some normal people they can nominate.
I don't need it. Between Medicare and Tri Care, I have been covered quite nicely with virtually no out of pocket expenses except for my two meds which combined cost me about twenty bucks a month.
So Trump was booed in Washington DC, where he received around 4.1% of the votes for President. Ha!!! That's 4.1% of the votes from Swamp City!!! Would you expect him to get cheered in the septic tank of the country? Hillary received 90.1% of the votes from District of Columbia!!! Imagine that!!!
Information the MSM would rather leave out of this incident. It hinders them in their agenda to take advantage of the misinformed. Trump's policies are for people who want to become something other than dependents of the state. Somebody is desperate and for good reason.
Evening..A friend of mine is flying out of New Zealand in 2 hours time to Houston for a 3 week holiday touring the States...She said they had been warned not to mention Donald Trump in shops etc as a lot of Americans love him??? Thought that sounded a bit odd seeing last time I checked you mob were still a Democracy...what happened to "free speech"???
She said they had been warned not to mention Donald Trump in shops etc as a lot of Americans love him???
She may feel free to discuss anything she wishes. If she has a New Zealand accent, we'll want to listen all day long...regardless of topic.
How long will she be in Houston? Trust me, if she's renting a car while there, she has more to fear from Houston drivers than anything else. Anywhere. In the world. True story.
But seriously, I hope she has a blast while here. We're not half bad when you get to know us.
Well, if she’s old and frail looking she might want to avoid voicing support for trump in public as groups of progressives like to beat up senior citizens and others who can’t defend themselves for the crime of wearing a red hat.
otherwise, it’s just a question of manners. One typically doesn’t walk into a store and make political pronouncements. She’s free to do so, but people might assume she’s crazy.
I was told by my parents to never discuss politics or religion with people I don't know, so my advice would be to just avoid talking about trump at all.
I was going to post that. Glad you beat me to it. And that standing ovation was long after his tenure was up.
America, by and large still love Obama! Best President ever in modernity. Did he makes a few mistakes, yep, they all have. Difference this time is this flake in the current Oval is there by fraudulent means. And he's going down. If he out-lives his jail sentence and ever makes a public appearance that isn't pre-arranged with MAGAts only, he will find the same booing reception and maybe much more.
Chances are he won't live to see it out of the Oval. I bet he strokes before long.
If he out-lives his jail sentence and ever makes a public appearance that isn't pre-arranged with MAGAts only, he will find the same booing reception and maybe much more.
True. He has all of his rallies screened for supporters, wouldn't want any non-believers in his cult meetings.
Well you're a woman so I wouldn't expect you to see that for what it is. I've not seen any girl's teams play baseball (I coached fast pitch softball). And I have coached girls that did strike me out in that softball environ.........and won two consecutive championships with them. Back then, girls were girls. Not guys going after the low hanging fruit enabled by the current liberal mindset so who knows these days.
The nutters on twitter are complaining that people chanting "lock him up" at Trump is disrespectful. If that's so, then why were these same turds cheering while chanting, "lock HER up"? Disrespect, apparently, is only ok when it's to a Democrat.
Seems to me the people at Game 5 were just being non-PC, which donny loves, so I guess he must have loved it.
Most of those at that baseball game were not from D.C. proper, which is 48% black. I would be surprised if more than 5% of those at the game were black.
It's just that most people cant stand the man. He has his 30% core base and that is about it.
7 Million Americans born in 1999 and 2000 will turn 18 by November 7, 2018. 7 Million Americans born in 2001 and 2002 will turn 18 by November 3, 2020. 7 Million Americans born in 2003 and 2004 will turn 18 by November 8, 2022.
These are 18 year olds that have seen and experienced all the school shootings, are more in line with Socialism than Capitalism, see clearly that they have started with less opportunity than their parents, are highly connected on social media, and sick and tired of the status quo. They are also now voters.
There will be many stadiums full of people booing Trump before this mess is over.
What if there is a group of voters, similar to the Trump voters in 2016, who want something different this time (and given Trump is the incumbent it is quite arguable that there is a lot more need for something different this time) ? We could see a wave that throws the GOP out of all its majorities nationally.
It is pretty well known that there are more Democrats than Republicans. Simple turnout will dictate the winner as long as independents break even. But given the way things are going, it seems likely that independents will break for the Democrat. If Democrats can bring out their vote, they will win the White House.

I'm not sure you've met many of them.
Generation Z is very different than the Millennials.

In my personal, non-scientific experience, my 25-year-old daughter's Millennial friends are much more likely to be liberal. They attend protests as social events.
However, my 20-year-old son (college junior) has a girlfriend with a Ronald Reagan photo on her dormitory wall. No, that's not in Texas and she's not from Texas.
I'm not sure that's going to be as big a wave as you hope.

No wonder he never goes to anything that isn't intentionally loaded with retards.
The game was played in Washington DC, so it was loaded with retards.
They were leftist retards, so you support them is all.
And DC lefties don't like it when Trump has an "austere scholar" eliminated!
Look - I'm tired of people saying that all people in DC are part of the swamp. That's simply not true. The reason why DC has become a swamp is because of the slimy fucks that the rest of the country keeps voting into office and SENDING to DC.
DC isn't the problem.
The majority of people living in DC can't afford to go to MLB games much less the world series. These people live in the suburbs in Virginia.

Exactly. The people at his rallies are all paid to be enthusiastic supporters. Anyone that doesn't toe the line is removed because Trump's pathetic ego can't handle it.
It's just as likely as Democrats bussing illegals to polling sites.
May not be necessary..............
Actually, no, but if that's what you have to tell yourself, feel free.
You always say this outlandish stuff as if it's fact. Please link something that indicates a "long tradition" of Dems doing that. You say shit without linking anything even close to fact. If you don't know how to link articles and/or graphs, then say so. It's easy.

Seems like some here think you don't toe the line. I see this comment is flagged. Why, I have no idea.
Possibly they don't like the truth.
I wonder how many people who show up at these 'rallies' are promised to be paid and then stiffed, just like the towns who are left holding the bag for his security, and everything else, every time this turd holds one of his 'rallies' in their city.
Yep, they expect to be paid.

Please back up with proof or a link to prove your sweeping generalization that all who attend Trump rallies are paid to attend them....
I find it hilarious that you ask anyone to back up their posts.

What a sack of shit trump is. He gets a presidential box for Game 5 of the world series, invites friends from work and a couple of die hard supporters, leaves his young son at home. My son would have been the FIRST person on the invite list.
When I was a kid, I didn't much care for baseball either, but would have, (and did), go with my dad to ball games just so I could hang out with him. As usual, you completely missed the point.
Trump's kid lives in an orphanage?
What's wrong with a sitting POTUS having a presidential box and inviting people? Many presidents have done this. There are photos of Wilson, Coolidge, FDR, and others with special treatment.
I highly doubt that Barron was left unattended or unprotected.
Many parents keep their children on a schedule on school nights. And ... not all children are interested in baseball.
Why would that even have to be said, jasper? That sentence seems oddly out of place. There was never an inference that he was left home alone.
That's true. They're probably afraid that Barron is going to run away from home.
Even tho my father and I played lots of baseball together, I think he would have enjoyed taking his children to a World Series game if he could have.
Fathers take their kids to ballgames? I think my father took his stepson. That son of a...
Anywho, the Saints pulled off another win.
Wait, what were we talking about again?
I use to grab my Nephew under the armpits and hold him up so he could use them. He had to be like everyone else.
You do know Trump is rich right? He will even be richer once he leaves office and starts cashing in on his name full time.
He can afford tickets to any event he wants. There will be other world series.
My dad worked 14 hours a day, every day. You going to slam him for that too? Running your own business is a lot of work so I valued the time I could spend with my dad. Apparently you didn't like spending much time with your father.
He's emolumentally rich.
First and last trip to Connie Mack stadium, seats fit for inmates, cigar and cigarette smoke, first experience with a trough urinal,
For what it costs these days, you almost have to take out a bank loan to attend a game.
He will be booed for the rest of his life. Don't kid yourself. He's trash.
And the only ones that can afford to buy anything from the food concession stands are Trumplethinskin's paid off hookers.
Do NOT eat the urinal mints.
Have you seen the Trump golden shower urinals?
It is unreal. Tickets to a Saints game (I know, NFL) are ridiculous.
A seat in the nosebleed section is 200$. Then parking etc.
I found this little gem too,
I think that may have scared the hell out of my Nephew.
Scarred him for life.
You ain't kidding! The hospital I work for sponsors the Braves and their stadium, I can get 2 tickets in a nice section for free, but buying an extra 3 for our girls and stadium snacks will run us about $200, just in regular season!
For that kind of money you're better off taking your girls to Six Flags. They'll probably have more fun, too.
(there is a Six Flags in Atlanta, isn't there?)
Reminds me of the time my daughter met her first automatic flush toilet. She was about 4 and the thing flushed itself and it scared her. Like the bad mom I am, I laughed.

Actually I don't know that at all. Maybe you could prove it.
All you need to do is look at his tax returns.
Wait... you can't because The Donald is still "being audited".
Look up. See that airplane?
It's not an airplane, it's another joke going over your head.
Yes, and it's just as expensive LOL! They enjoy the baseball games
That's good! I want to go see an Arkansas Traveler's game some time. I hear it's fun
Where I come from people get the jokes.
I bet that Barron sometimes wishes he were an orphan.
Please stop hitting on me.
I already have an NT girlfriend - Cobalt.
Dad took me to a KC Athletics game on bat day (still have the green bat).
My team won the world championship of beer stacking at Royal stadium (wasn't Kauffman stadium yet).
Don't much care for baseball, but was there for both world series wins sitting behind home plate because dad had influential friends. Thanks Dad!
Wish I could have been there.
Game 7 starts at 8:08 in Houston.
I wish Trump would attend so I could join in the chant.

I'm rooting for the Nets because their fans won me over with their standing ovation for The Donald.

He goes to his own rally's.
When he entered the Presidential box full of politicians and Wounded Warriors, no one noticed.
An aide pointed out that they were on TV and Donald and Melania started clapping like wind up bunny toys along with the aide.
The aide stopped because of the action on the field.
Melania glanced about and stopped clapping,
leaving Donald, clapping for himself, looking from the field to the monitor for too many more seconds.....
Yay, Donald...
Being amazing as always!
He's got a teenaged son and he didn't take him to a World Series game? WTF?? Oh wait. My bad. Barron's not really the Traitor-In-Chief's and Melania's son. Or is he? I know he's Melania's son ... together ... who she loves very much.
During the pregnancy the doctor asked what she wanted her sons name to be and under her breath Melania whispered "I wish I were barren…"...
Doc: "What??"
Melania: "Yeah, that's it. Barren."
Didn't Trump pose as John Barron , spokesperson for ... himself ?

Look at what I replied to, the "joke" that Melania wished she were barren rather than have had her son. You gave it a thumbs up. But go ahead and keep calling Trump a terrible person.
Okay, Trump is a terrible person.
The 'righties' never attack the president's kids or the First Lady, never.
ghties' never attack the president's kids
Keep rationalizing why attacking kids is okay. Does mocking kids make you feel better about your life?
President trump going into the belly of the beast and getting loudly booed by a 90% Hillary voting area within 24 hours of killing Baghdadi was like the best thing that could happen to him in the rest of America.
No one is mocking Barron here, no one.
Again, the 'righties' never attack a democratic president or their First Lady or their children, NEVER EVER.
Your comment reminds me of a true story. A coworker of mine was legally named Please Please. Of course I had to ask her the origin of it and this is what she told me. "My mother died giving birth to me and her last words were "Name my baby please please." So they did. The corker is that she and her husband adopted a boy and a girl. The girl's legal name is Little Please and the boy's legal name is Different.
My best friend in school was black, but I didn't go around saying "aight". Trump knew he was busted and that is why the conversation stalled. The secretary basically confirmed it. As far as her spelling the name wrong three times, she was perfect to work for Trump.
He'll soon be tweeting, "They love me here in DC at the World Series!!. They love me everywhere! I am the most beloved and respected president in history! No president has ever been more admired and respected!"
No no, those "boos" were actually "woos" as in everyone was so impressed by his mere presence.
Bwahahahaha! Too friggin' hilarious ...
And the LOCK HIM UPS?
There was also a makeshift sign from some vets attending the game that said "Vets for Impeachment" but they were made to take it down.
Trump deserved the reaction he got. As far as the sign goes, sporting events should not used as political platforms even if I agree with the sign and I do as a vet.
If Trump had arrived before the teams even took the field, he would still have started clapping for himself.
Even with a solid economy, he still gets booed... Why? Because he is a horrible human being.
The 'solid economy' is a fraud. It is way to top heavy with debt. Corporate and government.
After Obama you have the nerve to post anything about debt?
You've got to be kidding:
U.S. federal budget deficit runs at nearly $1 trillion in 2019
The numbers: The U.S. government ran a budget deficit of just under $1 trillion — $984 billion — in the fiscal year that ended in September. It was the largest shortfall since 2012, and was 26% more than the fiscal 2018 deficit of $779 billion.
How's that BOOMING ECONOMY, oh yeah...TAX BREAKS FOR THE RICH and the deficit EXPLODED....
True.
So....your point here....in response to a comment about Obama deficits...is to produce a quote stating Obama deficits were larger than the current one.
Are you agreeing with him or what?
That fucking retard in the WH said he would pay off the debt but has already added 3T. So yea, we have a right to call him out for it. Obama was handed an economy that was in the shitter and it took money to stabilize it. What's trumps excuse? He was handed a great economy and STILL added 3T in 4 years? Why?
Yes, I do have the nerve.
Obama left the nation's economic conditions in much better shape ( it's condition ) considering ( it's ) stature the previous administration engineered.
Just saw this post on twitter... I love it.. LOL
Well, someone had to 'pay down' the Cheney/Bush debt/ deficits---and of course it would be the taxpayers. Who did you think would ante up? Carlyle Group, Wall Street, Hedge Funds, Big Banks, America's patriotic billionaire cliques?
Get real. This is Supply Side America. Nobody pays anything except us.
In 2009 two terms of a Republican administration that had started two unnecessary unfunded wars gave us an annual deficit of $1.4 trillion.
By 2016 President Obama had reduced that deficit by 65% to $585 billion.
By 2019 inept Donald has increased the annual deficit nearly 50% to $1.09 trillion with projections for 2020 at $1.101 trillion and has grown the debt by over $3 trillion. His claims of fiscal responsibility to his fans during the 2016 campaign were nothing but lies, but I've no doubt he'll use them again for the 2020 campaign to prove just how mind numbingly stupid anyone would have to be to vote for him again.
Do pay attention sweetie. I didn't bring up Obama.
Did you have anything logical or factual you wanted to add?
oh Jack, you can be so funny sometimes.
OK, but in 2012...four years after he was elected...the deficit was apparently still larger than it is now.
The larger point being that there are a lot....and I mean a LOT... of ways to compare Obama very favorably to Trump. She should probably choose one that is mathematically sound.
So....you "pay down" deficits by increasing deficits? Riiiiiight.
The half of us that pay them, yes.
When we deregulated the banks in 1999, I thought it was a terrible idea. Apparently I was the only one in America who remembered what the three letters "R.T.C" stood for.
I think you mean "half of us".
yet Republicans with veto proof numbers erased the stained Glass/Steagle act in a play
to
cause financial dissarray ,
and even to this day, call for the regulations implicated to prevent a replay,
to be away, and done with.
Yea, the GOP to save the economy and the day, cause,
oh, that will be the day !
If you'll look at my link you'll see that nearly every year since Obama took office he reduced the annual deficit (only 2012 and 2016 did it increase) and 2012 it was actually at $1.087 trillion compared to 2019 which is at $1.091 trillion.
The point is, Trump ran on supposed fiscal conservatism and a promise to reduce the debt and deficit. Since taking office he has only increased both the debt and deficit, and not just a little but dramatically. He has nearly doubled the deficit in just 3 years back to highs not seen since the ones Obama inherited from the last fiscally irresponsible Republican administration. But don't worry, I've no doubt Trump will lose in 2020, a Democrat will be President again and Republicans will go back to claiming they care about the debt and deficit again as if it's all the democrats fault. It's what they do, run up the debt with huge give-a-ways to corporations and the wealthy and then jump ship to go work for those corporations while blaming Democrats who end up cleaning up their mess and having to make the hard choices in cutting spending or increasing taxes to pay for Republicans fiscal irresponsibility.
Same old song and dance.
When the shit hits the fan they turn around and blame the other side.
The gullible believe them and repeat....
no, the GOP would never
turn that fan around, and say, blow that shit in that Dem face, cause it's about face, when they in place,
and a face they should never be able to save after allowing Trumpp to remain, and fooling those he enslaved to a twitter chained to an anchor dragging us like drugged,

Republicans did not possess a veto-proof majority at the time. 75% of Democrats voted for the measure. But don't let facts get in the way of your partisanship.
Already familiar with the data. Didn't need the link, but thank you for providing it.
He also ran on the promise of a giant wall with the label "Hecho in Mexico". Nobody cares what he promises. I don't understand how we're nearly 3 years into his presidency and people still live in denial about how he won.
But the point is really that liberals, in general, need to be able to say stuff that isn't mathematically preposterous. It shouldn't be that hard to criticize Trump or defend Obama with math that doesn't require pixie dust and unicorns.
So out of curiosity, where do you stand on the ultimate deficit warp engine known as Bernicare?
And Democrats will go back to telling us deficits don't matter and it's all the previous Republican's fault. It's an exceedingly predictable pattern.
But before that...they have to nominate somebody who isn't a raving nutter.
Yet he seems to think any weird promise he made must be kept..to appease his base.

Yes, i mis spoke about a stick you try and wedge between the front spoken, about a back wheeland deal, you attempt to twist, as i only use pretzel logic when assaulting chips.
But i'll own up to mispoken speakage, and agree Dems, bought and paid , by the Lobbyists who conquer and invade our politics me off with the way our pay to play system works for the ones who can purchase candidates who produce Laws to benefit only the few who benefit.
But, The President, Bill Clinton WAS AGAINST the repeal, was he not ?
Was the bill written and sponsered by Democrats or Republicans ?, as i believe you know it was 3 Republicans who wrote it.
And Big Money Bought Pols on both sides of the aisle, in our rigged two no surprise party system of a Down Fall.

Clinton waffled back and forth. By the time he signed it he supported it. He later came back and said it was one of the biggest regrets of his presidency.
The point here is that blind partisanship is stupid. Accusing "the other side" of some sort of villainy while your own side is actively involved in the same deed is ridiculous.
The Clinton impeachment is the perfect example of this. You currently have partisan conservatives screaming about a Democratic witch hunt, looking for a reason to impeach the president. But what was the investigation of Clinton, if not a witch hunt? How much dirt did they have to dig up before they caught him in a perjury about something most people didn't care about in the first place?
So our choice is to participate in the foolishness or step back and think for ourselves while the headless chickens run around and squawk about whatever nonsense has them riled up today.
Cite me excusing Trump.
It is a further measure of stupidity when partisanship blinds a person so fully that they mistake anyone who fails to join their own chorus as some sort of enemy in league with the hated enemy.

That's ignorant on several fronts. First, Texas is a net payer of federal tax. Secondly, my own personal contributions will depend on my own personal income. Taxes are my single largest expense every year.
I stopped guessing what he thinks sometime back in the 1980s.
I think his base is still resentful of a lot of things, in some cases justifiably so, and Trump has done more to give voice to that resentment than any other candidate.
Resentful of what though. I could think of a few things yet they would sound like I was calling them racist.
Resentment does not make for sound policy.
Nah, it's not really race-related anymore. Don't get me wrong...a lot of them are racists...but this is different.
The 10-second encapsulation would be when Hillary used the word "deplorable". She finally said out loud what most of them have known for decades, which is that college-educated elites view working-class people as lesser human beings.
These guys work their asses off in jobs I thank the Lord daily that I don't have to do. If I had to get up on Texas roofs in July to fix A/C units, I'd have heat stroke before 9am. But these guys get up, get it done, and do the best they can to provide for their families.
Meanwhile, both Republicans and Democrats have been proclaiming how great NAFTA is for decades while millions of manufacturing jobs have migrated to Mexico. They wanted the TPP after millions more jobs have gone to China/Malaysia etc. They watch China manipulate its currency to artificially suppress prices for Chinese goods so they would have a competitive advantage over American manufacturers, while their own government has done nothing at all to protect them.
Here in the states, it's tougher and tougher to support their families because wages are suppressed by millions of illegal immigrants with fake documentation.
If they complain, they get called racist. If they point out that "identifying" as a girl doesn't actually make you one, they're called homophobic. If they point out that women can actually afford a co-pay for birth control, they're misogynistic bastards engaged in a "war on women".
They're expected to pay taxes to fund college grants for kids whose parents don't work, while they can't afford to send their own kids. Then, kids who did go to college and took out $200k in loans to study art history want the deplorables to pay them off.
Some are able to scrape up enough to send their kids to college, where those kids are taught that their dads are the root of all America's problems but they're just too old and ignorant to understand.
So yeah...they've had about enough.
No. It doesn't. But it's usually not created by sound policy, either.
The problem that concerns me is the lack of any visible source of sound policy. We seem pulled between the Trump/Bannon right and the Sanders/Warren left, with AOC even further out in la-la land.
Yeah but I think most of what you listed has been going on for decades.
One thing I will say is jobs going to Mexico. Kind of ironic imo, that people complain when they come here for jobs and complain when jobs are made for them at their home country.
Sort of counter productive.
I agree about the extremes. Shows me people like showmanship and bullshit over substance.
If they're taking your job, it doesn't really matter if the new guy works in Mexico or in the US. It's not lost on them that accounting or finance or sales or upper management jobs don't get impacted.
Clickbait.
We didn't used to have a scenario where you chose your own news sources based on how outrageous the headline was. Starting a media outlet was expensive and TV and radio stations were licensed. You had 3-5 TV news outlets and usually 1-2 newspapers in any city.
Now, you can be a "journalist" in 30 minutes if you know how to set up a blog and buy a domain name. "News" is everywhere, and if you want people to view your version of it, you have to stand out.
Apparently so. Trump has done that. Pay attention.
So now you're telling us that Trump is using the same tactics as Obama, and they work.
So what are you complaining about again?
No. That is not what I said. That is what you said.
It's probably not what you meant to say... because it doesn't make any sense.... but it's definitely what you said.
Sure, you watch CNN and I have a 14 inch dick.
Does anyone else see the stunning hypocrisy in those two lines? And the fact he put them one after the other. He starts with "Nobody cares" about Donald's lies, then goes immediately into "But it's Liberals that shouldn't say stuff that isn't true! That's the point we all need to remember!". It would be really funny if it weren't such a sad but apt example of the ongoing battle between conservatives and liberals.
Failing to understand the difference between "true" and "mathematically preposterous", I see.
Here. Try this:
As opposed to...
There is also "scientifically preposterous", which is where far right Republicans tend to dominate.
Now... we have Mayor Pete who (to my knowledge) has yet to go down the mathematically preposterous route. Biden does a very good job at avoiding the mathematically preposterous. Even Kamala Harris has backed down from some of her extremist/preposterous stances. So the Democrats have some normal people they can nominate.
The question is...will they?
I would be willing to give back the 7 grand Trump said we would all get......oh wait, never got it so never mind.
I don't need it. Between Medicare and Tri Care, I have been covered quite nicely with virtually no out of pocket expenses except for my two meds which combined cost me about twenty bucks a month.

The Nets won the World Series.
The rednecks in Texas can suck it.
All presidents and politicians get booed, with rare exceptions, like George bush in 2001.
This too will be quickly forgotten. Like----'Stormy Who.'
I wonder why he went.
And I really wonder why Melania went. Why does she still be seen with him? Maybe contract?
It would be by a normal human, but not by him. Two days and he is calling the fans human scum and asking for them to be arrested.
So Trump was booed in Washington DC, where he received around 4.1% of the votes for President. Ha!!! That's 4.1% of the votes from Swamp City!!! Would you expect him to get cheered in the septic tank of the country? Hillary received 90.1% of the votes from District of Columbia!!! Imagine that!!!
Information the MSM would rather leave out of this incident. It hinders them in their agenda to take advantage of the misinformed. Trump's policies are for people who want to become something other than dependents of the state. Somebody is desperate and for good reason.
A little screeching on the chalkboard for ya!!!
Evening..A friend of mine is flying out of New Zealand in 2 hours time to Houston for a 3 week holiday touring the States...She said they had been warned not to mention Donald Trump in shops etc as a lot of Americans love him??? Thought that sounded a bit odd seeing last time I checked you mob were still a Democracy...what happened to "free speech"???
I would expect your friend to encounter many fine Americans to openly share their love and admiration for Mr. Trump with.
Tell me true, Dean. Yes or No. Do you love and admire Donald Trump?
The friend can also expect to find many more who don't.
Not as much as Ron Paul.
Trump supporters are a minority in the USA, so yes, her friend is more likely to meet good Americans.
Guess so - that's why he's the President, eh?
She may feel free to discuss anything she wishes. If she has a New Zealand accent, we'll want to listen all day long...regardless of topic.
How long will she be in Houston? Trust me, if she's renting a car while there, she has more to fear from Houston drivers than anything else. Anywhere. In the world. True story.
But seriously, I hope she has a blast while here. We're not half bad when you get to know us.
Well, if she’s old and frail looking she might want to avoid voicing support for trump in public as groups of progressives like to beat up senior citizens and others who can’t defend themselves for the crime of wearing a red hat.
otherwise, it’s just a question of manners. One typically doesn’t walk into a store and make political pronouncements. She’s free to do so, but people might assume she’s crazy.
I was told by my parents to never discuss politics or religion with people I don't know, so my advice would be to just avoid talking about trump at all.
Just my two cents.
BTW: Good to see you here.
I just became a baseball fan.
I want to make the "lock him up" chant my cell phone ringer.
Well, let's hope trump never sees this...
I was going to post that. Glad you beat me to it. And that standing ovation was long after his tenure was up.
America, by and large still love Obama! Best President ever in modernity. Did he makes a few mistakes, yep, they all have. Difference this time is this flake in the current Oval is there by fraudulent means. And he's going down. If he out-lives his jail sentence and ever makes a public appearance that isn't pre-arranged with MAGAts only, he will find the same booing reception and maybe much more.
Chances are he won't live to see it out of the Oval. I bet he strokes before long.
Raptors (Canadian played IN Toronto) and Golden State (California) Why wouldn't they applaud.
True. He has all of his rallies screened for supporters, wouldn't want any non-believers in his cult meetings.

Yeah, Obama “throwing” a baseball inoculates any other President from criticism on that topic.
What was sissy about that pitch?
And some girls would strike you out....jes sayin'
Well you're a woman so I wouldn't expect you to see that for what it is. I've not seen any girl's teams play baseball (I coached fast pitch softball). And I have coached girls that did strike me out in that softball environ.........and won two consecutive championships with them. Back then, girls were girls. Not guys going after the low hanging fruit enabled by the current liberal mindset so who knows these days.
I would hope a girl could throw better than this.
lol....what did he need a glove for?
Trumpp didn't need no stinkin glove,
even when bangin a pornstar !
DEFLECTION ALARM....
push snooze and go back to sleep
I tried but it just went off again................perhaps you need the nap.
i n joy dirt naps. actually, wet dirt naps are just dreamy.
throw the alarm clock out the window with the big baby and his bath water, asz he deserves every boo and lock him up chant, this country can, as
this 'man', just can't handle the spork he dishes out to fork over people he;s cut
with his lowering of about everything in our country
At least Obama had the balls to actually do it, unlike coward trump.
MEMO FROM GEORGE WASHINGTON TO TRUMP - I want my teeth back you grifter.
"Girly man"?
Why don't we re-name that the Sissy Pitch?
The nutters on twitter are complaining that people chanting "lock him up" at Trump is disrespectful. If that's so, then why were these same turds cheering while chanting, "lock HER up"? Disrespect, apparently, is only ok when it's to a Democrat.
Seems to me the people at Game 5 were just being non-PC, which donny loves, so I guess he must have loved it.
By the way, whatever happened to the special prosecutor that Trump was going to appoint in order to have her locked up?
That and the 10% tax cuts for the middle class he promised just days before the midterms.
Has Mexico paid for the wall yet?
Trump just lost on Wheel of Fortune.
Where's that replacement for Obamacare?
I swear to Jebus that Trump is the most unphotogenic human ever.
There is no mention of this on fox news. None.
I see it as a nothing burger same as when Michelle Obama was booed at a NASCAR race.
When was she the POTUS?
Yet it's NOT. Michelle Obama participated in 'unscripted' events all of the time. This is one of the first times that Trump has done so.
Consider the demographics of NASCAR racing...rednecks, grade school drop outs and racists.
Most NASCAR fans make more than $50k/yr.
as they cheer on people turning Left...
Shhhhhhh
it
Turning left and making very loud noises. Mustn't forget the noises.
Love him up? Giving or taking???
Most of those at that baseball game were not from D.C. proper, which is 48% black. I would be surprised if more than 5% of those at the game were black.
It's just that most people cant stand the man. He has his 30% core base and that is about it.
7 Million Americans born in 1999 and 2000 will turn 18 by November 7, 2018. 7 Million Americans born in 2001 and 2002 will turn 18 by November 3, 2020. 7 Million Americans born in 2003 and 2004 will turn 18 by November 8, 2022.

These are 18 year olds that have seen and experienced all the school shootings, are more in line with Socialism than Capitalism, see clearly that they have started with less opportunity than their parents, are highly connected on social media, and sick and tired of the status quo. They are also now voters.
There will be many stadiums full of people booing Trump before this mess is over.
What if there is a group of voters, similar to the Trump voters in 2016, who want something different this time (and given Trump is the incumbent it is quite arguable that there is a lot more need for something different this time) ? We could see a wave that throws the GOP out of all its majorities nationally.
It is pretty well known that there are more Democrats than Republicans. Simple turnout will dictate the winner as long as independents break even. But given the way things are going, it seems likely that independents will break for the Democrat. If Democrats can bring out their vote, they will win the White House.
That will depend entirely on who the nominee is.
I'm not sure you've met many of them.
Generation Z is very different than the Millennials.
We have teens and children in our house all the time. The Republicans are looking at a shit-storm they can't weasel outta; and, it's gonna be brought by this generation of voters.
In my youth we where sick and tired of the status quo too. Instead of crying about it daily on social media, we changed our own lives for the better.
In my personal, non-scientific experience, my 25-year-old daughter's Millennial friends are much more likely to be liberal. They attend protests as social events.
However, my 20-year-old son (college junior) has a girlfriend with a Ronald Reagan photo on her dormitory wall. No, that's not in Texas and she's not from Texas.
I'm not sure that's going to be as big a wave as you hope.
