never worked for the people...

free trade - job loss
trickle down - rise of our own oligarchs
deficit reduction - cut social programs that the people needed (oh, they were all in favor of cutting them until they NEEDED them)


so... along comes a "populist" wanna be dictator who promises them that he alone can fix everything... all you needed was someone who was a great deal maker as President... and because your party was SO afraid of a centrist democrat ( you all started believing your own vile lies about her ) you ceded power to this person AND gave him the propaganda media outlet(s) that the old republicans created.

You really shouldn't be surprised that he was able to use it to create this cult of personality.

JoeS said ..."80% of Americans support..." tRump's treasonuos behavior with Putin. From Google: As of October 2017, Gallup polling found that 31% of Americans identified as Democrat, 24% identified as Republican, and 42% as Independent. That means that 80% of 24% of republicans, 19%, support his behavior in Helsinki. There are still a few Republucans, 5%, that may not support tRump. If we take 95% of the 31% Democrats, 5% of the Republicans,and 85% of the 42% Independents, that comes out to 70% of America do not support tRump and only a combined 30% support what he did with Putin in Helsinki..

with Putin" was done behind closed doors, how do we know what happened? Vlad tapes EVERYTHING, so he knows. He may have laid down his laws to tRump, toe the line or else tapes will be released, financial records will be released. This closed door meeting fiasco should NEVER be allowed. tRump is not in charge of the USA, there is supposed to be a network of checks and balances. The Gross Old Pervert party made certain that President Obama obeyed them, why not their "boy" Widdle Donnie?

They are unknowing traitors. Anyone who thought anything bad about Hillary Clinton, SHAME ON THEM!

She would have protected us from our enemies. FUCK REPUBLICAN TRAITORS!

6. Joe, it's not the Repbulican Party now. It's the 45 Cult

It is a cult that supports 45. It is no longer a political party.

He spent ten minutes ranting before letting his guest speak! He's painful to have to listen to, no wonder regular DUers who watch this are in such a mood when it's over!
