Even the Dems realize he's offering too much free shit
You don't win a race by only appeasing to a few voting blocks
You also have to make sure you don't piss off all the rest
And there must be no one better than you in the race
The Dems are like chicken right now cause they have no clue what is the best set of policies to run with
And Trump is the wolf
Some Dems even believe it's a good idea to run as "being anti-Trump"
What a bunch of clueless children
^^
I live in the sort of midwest state where working class people generally abhor the democrat's offerings, though frequently kow-tow to their unions who go along with it. It's usually just the welfare-state people in the larger cities that vote for the D.
>Trump is a wolf
he's a bitch that surrounded himself with people with more ambition than him, out of nepotism, and has had to fire most of them because they keep hamstringing his actual goals.
Trump is a legend
he's a notch above mediocre, policywise
he hasn't set the country on fire, but he hasn't gone very far in the other direction
All I can think of off the top of my head that he's done positive is smooth things out with NK and appropriately take advantage of Mexico's new, more cooperative government
nothing really domestic
he hasn't saved any jobs or gone anywhere near an infrastructure bill
Unemployments gone down
I'd have to do some more research on it but I dint think trump has been the worst
unemployment stats are famously malliable
And I agree
Not the best
But not the worst
but that doesn't by definition make him the best, just because democrats are a lost cause
I just sais he's not the best
Lol
politics of spite. its how this "lesser of two evils" shit is gotten away with in a modern democracy
Republic
We aremt a democracy
you don't have to be "good" yoi have to be "better" than the other guy
Aren't
yes we are, not having this retarded discussion again
the two terms are not mutually exclusive
I fail to see wherr we disagree here tbh
We both agree trump isnt the worst or best
I give him a B+ which is a lot better than I would have expected in '16 (he said some really silly things). As to working class support for the dems? I'll give you a hint it's in the name *working* class. Taxes and handouts =/= jobs.
Always fucks me up when people claim Bernie has "working class appeal". Have you seen his supporters? And no working at Starbucks because you got a degree in being useless is not working class.
So many brainlets coming out with the clip "we're not a democracy, we're a republic."
Can't for the life of me remember anyone that acknowledges we're a democracy try to deny we're also a republic.
not gonna say it never happened, I've just never seen it
@Jym he gets rounds of applause from folks in hard-red states where he's speaking at town halls and what not
crowds that don't look like baristas
