    At least she approaches being correct almost half the time. That's about 10x the success rate of the useless left.
    Depends ... notice how Trump will fix his problems ... from the family business to the nearly $1 Billion he owes Foreign Banks to running the Whitehouse and thus America from Trump Tower ...

    You must be confused as LWNJ lost in reality.....as I waded into your ranks 100 fold deep where you stand and hide. The very same place where you crawl back under that rock and live with the slime.

    You're just mad because I leave no stone of your kind.....unturned.

    Anyone looking at the 2016 electoral map and exit polls knows there were two main forces that tipped the election to Trump: white working class inhabitants of the Rust Belt upset about a hollowed-out economy, and religious voters, both Catholic and Protestant, who reacted to attacks on their values by voting against the candidate of the cultural elite. There may be other reasons, but these two are highest on the list.
    Trump’s victory did not happen overnight, either. The last eight years of the Obama presidency have been disastrous for Democrats. On their way to minority status, Democrats since 2009 have lost a net of 13 US Senate seats, 69 House seats, 12 governorships, and 30 state legislatures. The entire party is a smoldering ruin.

    This is what happens when you invite unfair foreign competition for American jobs via bad trade practices and massive illegal immigration, and when you go to war with nuns over birth control.

    Don't Worry about The Democrats ... you just handle Trump

    BTW ... is Trump a Republican today?

    Bernie Sanders says Obama let down the progressive movement

    Vermont Sen. Bernard Sanders said in some ways President Obama has let down the progressive movement within Democratic Party, citing the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal as an example.
    Anderson Cooper, the moderator of CNN’s Democratic presidential town hall on Wednesday, asked Mr. Sanders whether Mr. Obama had disappointed the progressive movement. Mr. Sanders replied: “In some areas, for example in the trade area. Right now, I think they signed today the TPP in New Zealand. It is a continuation of bad trade policies. The president supports it. I strongly disagree with it.”


    “Hillary Clinton believes we must build on the progress achieved under President Obama and that, no matter what, we can’t go backwards. Despite 70 consecutive months of private sector job growth and landmark legislation for universal health care and Wall Street reform, Senator Sanders has a troubling history of questioning President Obama and his achievements, and continues to do so,” her campaign said in a statement Wednesday night.

    Just like the democrats with obamacare.
    I wish there were more balance but it is what it is for now
    This is balance. Much mischief must be undone. There is much damage that must be repaired. This nation must be moved far to the right just to get back to the center.
