"The voters have overwhelmingly given the Republicans a mandate to get government regulation off the backs of hard working, barely getting by, businesses and I fully expect them to keep that commitment.



Yes he won the popular vote by a landslide.

you know, I have to actually agree with the first statement, which was NOT about Trump, but about Republicans. If you look at what voters have voted for in Governors, State Houses, the House, and the Senate, I would say that it is pretty overwhelming.

Regarding Trump, I think all of the above dragged him over the line, barely.

"You have that long early voting in Florida, it's so long and so many things can go wrong when you have that long period of time. A long long long period. It used to be you have a day and you vote, now you go on forever, weeks and weeks," Trump said in Baton Rogue.

"We have to discuss that early thing, that's sort of - so many things are going on, I wonder what happens in the evening when those things are locked," he added, making air-quotes with his hands as he said the word "locked."

Stream of consciousness idiot with a twitter account.

Apparently no Trump supporters are counting on Social Security. Good thinking.

As is often the case, the idiots that voted for him (and vote Republican, in general) will be most adversely affected by his policies.

A fair point. But at least at the national level in presidential years, the vote is pretty evenly split between Democrats and Republicans.

But the electoral college and gerrymandering have given the R's a decided advantage.

But beyond that, I don't think that many R's are voting policies.

In 2000 they voted for a fishing buddy and got the Iraq war.

Yeah, and they will blame Obama.
Seriously though, how many republican representatives vote on things that benefit their constituents?

What a f*#ked up country.

Forget it. That plays great before the election. Now, we don’t care, right?”


Trump today at one of his rallies. Wondering how long it takes before the sh#t hits the fan about what people thought they were voting for.

I actually had the opportunity to talk to Sean P. Roche, who spoke at a conference at UCLA on Wed. Pretty impressive guy.

Unlike Sun, who apparently knows nobody and nothing about anything, Roche, who is the Deputy Director of CIA for Digital Innovation, does.

It's a shame that adolescents like Sun don't actually bother going to class and learning.
