I think that Trump won, and HRC lost, because Trump was saying “bring back American jobs”

I also think voters are expecting that.

Not yet...

Idk. If Donald Trump were up against anyone other than the people he’s up against, he’d be in trouble.

If your aunt had nuts she'd be your uncle.

This is a lot of hot air. This is always the case against a losing opponent. Think about it.

If Obama had run against someone else...

If Bush had run againt other people...

If Clinton had run against other people...

If papa Bush had run against other people...

If Reagan had run against other people...

If Carter had run against other people...

Like who knew?

Such an astute observation, for a third grade mentality.

After eight years of economic stagnation, transgender bathrooms just didn’t resonant with most citizens. Who could have guessed?

Yeah, it's like when low-life prison inmates yell at the C.O.s, saying "you'd never talk to me like that if you met me in the outside world."

Transgender bathrooms didn’t resonate period.

Trump was on a different track. He electrified the winning segment of the voters, including most particularly, yours truly. Ask me about it and I’ll tell you.

President Trump is of the WWII generational mold.

A no nonsense Patton like figure who I believe favors general Patton. Certainly has his style.

Americans like, love him.

Just for the background, I was always kind of leery of Trump, from the AC Casino days. Then he kind of turned me with his renovation of Doral, just by reputation, that is. Not that I knew anything about it.

Then, there was a moment in his “Apprentice” TV show, when a female apprentice was challenging a male apprentice on his choice of water bottles set out for a meeting. He had chosen full-sized bottles instead of small bottles, and she was calling him on it, giving a brief explanation that they were awkward, or whatever.

Trump was listening intently, and at the end he announced, “You know you’re right!” ... and to the hapless ( male ) victim ... “YOU’RE FIRED?”

Well, I know it’s just a show, but I took that to heart as an exemplar of Trump’s ability to make a fair and decisive judgement. So that turned me.

Maybe thin! It was just a show! ... but that was enough for me.

Given more ink is the Access Hollywood tape.

That piece of mis-direction bothers me more than just about anything else in this whole election. I still deal with morons who talk about Trump and his sexual assaults on women, that he "admitted" in the tape".

But when I bring up that Trump said "if he wanted to", they go berserk and start massive ad hominum attacks on me and my support of an assaulter.

The facts are still the facts, what he said on the tape, although a little tone deaf, were 100% correct. Most of the women claiming sexual assault now, allowed it back then because the men involved were powerful or famous. They are only crying now because the papers are on their side.

Classic.

My work environment precludes me from crossing paths with this type of person, but I'd love to be able to observe one first-hand.

For what it’s worth, I have a dear friend, my wife’s best friend, who maintained Trump’s unfitness for President base on his making a qualified, inconsequential, claim that turned out to be incorrect.

Apparently, my cross-examination of her grievance caused her to cry, and I’m no longer allowed to challenge her on that level: on orders from my wife ;-)

Oh, this is not at work. I would NEVER bring up anything like this at work.

The “lady” that I serve under has nothing but disgust for Trump because of his lack of intelligence. I sometimes desperately want to ask her how she made her “billions” but I know how that would go over.

And they all hammer Judge Moore and the charges, never once equating their love for so many of their political heroes who did and do far worse than what Moore was charged with.

There’s a reason every scandalous accusation leveled at republicans centers around women.....
