Trump has conned the rubes bigly and naturally when it goes to shit they will blame the liberals and MSM and anything else except the fact that they put a grifter into office.
bibo ergo sum
If you hear the thunder be happy - the lightening missed.
This time.
and yet he still won against Hillary

Perhaps the best analysis of the Trump phenomenon written before the election by Salena Zito of the Atlantic and now widely quoted by many pundits.
The press took him literally, but not seriously; his supporters took him seriously, but not literally.
You fascists must be in pig heaven. Trump's top advisor a white nationalist and all.Originally Posted by RPETER65
No it was not Jack Welch, it was Salena Zito as I stated. I'd post several links for you but you're Mr. Happy Fingers so go look it up yourself.Originally Posted by Cold Pizza
Far too brainy. The masses have been permanently dumbed down, maybe Jesse Ventura or Dwayne Johnson.Originally Posted by Storekeeper
I think you're exactly right. If he hadn't had all the TV exposure(The Apprentice, etc.) he wouldn't have had a chance.Originally Posted by Humbert
TV is a dangerous thing...
Bloomberg wanted to run, and he was far more credible than Trump or Hillary
unfortunately Hillary camp convinced him to give up, with the threat of a Trump win
how he must regret now,
The Hillary camp is really a bunch of vicious fuckers ready to do anything to win, the worst kind of politicians
Wow! I actually agree with you on something.Originally Posted by Dragonfly
The Eisenhower Republican Party vs. Today’s Tea Party Republicans:
In 1956, the Republican Party boasted that under Eisenhower “the Federal minimum wage has been raised for more than 2 million workers.” Today, the Texas Republican Party wants to“repeal the minimum wage.”
In 1956, the Republican Party promised to “extend the protection of the Federal minimum wage laws to as many more workers as is possible and practicable.” Today, the lead Republican in the Senate on labor issues wants to abolish the minimum wage.In 1956, the Republican Party proudly stated that under Eisenhower “Social Security has been extended to an additional 10 million workers and the benefits raised for 6 1/2 million.” Today, the Texas Republican Party wants to abolish Social Security.
In 1956, the Republican Party platform pledged that it would work to “assure equal pay for equal work regardless of Sex.” Last year, every Republican in the Senate voted against the Paycheck Fairness Act to assure equal pay for equal work.
In 1956, the Republican Party boasted that under Eisenhower “the protection of unemployment insurance has been brought to 4 million additional workers.” Today, the Republican Party wants to end unemployment benefits for hundreds of thousands of Americans who have lost their jobs through no fault of their own.
In 1956, the Republican Party was proud that under Eisenhower, “unions have grown in strength and responsibility, and have increased their membership by 2 million.” Today, Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham said that abolishing the National Labor Relations Board, the federal agency in charge of protecting the rights of workers, would be considered “progress.”
In 1956, the Republican Party said “the protection of the right of workers to organize into unions and to bargain collectively is the firm and permanent policy of the Eisenhower Administration.” Today, Republican Governors and legislators have undermined collective bargaining rights in Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio and other states.
In 1956, the Republican Party pledged to “maintain and continue the vigorous administration of the Federal prevailing minimum wage law for public supply contracts.” Today, the Republican Party wants to repeal prevailing wage laws and significantly cut the pay of millions of workers.
In 1956, the Republican Party platform stated “Republican action created the Department of Health, Education and Welfare as the first new Federal department in 40 years.” Today, the Texas Republican Party wants to abolish the U.S. Department of Education.

Would love to go back to being a Republican. But not as long as the teabaggers, evangelicals and racist pig fukcs inhabit the party.
