I want to believe that but I can't see her running for some reason. Besides Trump will just repeat "Pocahontas" over and over again until he wins reelection.

I'm in such a dark place right now I can't for the life of me picture who the Dems could run in 2020 that would defeat Trump even if he is considered horrible by both parties.

Good point about the TPP and I agree that the Dems have been horrible when it comes to talking about the poor, not the middle class, but the truly poor, and they need to figure out a way to address their economic concerns.

Exactly. Both Obama and Trump says that the country needs to come together but…what if I'm Muslim, or Latino, or Black, or gay or a woman or a feminist? Republicans have no bones about offending those groups. And why would those groups want to break bread with a group of people that clearly hates them?

Again in theory I understand that calling them stupid doesn't help things but for fucks sake Trump is a snake oil salesman and his supporters are saying "sell me more snake oil please!" How are we not supposed to think that's stupid behavior?

In theory I agree but how does the Democratic party convince white working class voters that their voice is being heard by them now?

I'm feeling the same way. Just when I feel like I've mentally cataloged all the horrible shit that's going to happen under Trump I'm reminded of something else. Remember that whole Keystone XL pipeline? That's on again. Stop and Frisk in every city and town. That's on the way too.

Same thing happened to me. What the fuck happened? Was this planned or is it a glitch?

I doubt that will happen. They've done an amazing job rationalizing all the horrible shit Trump has done and said so far. Why would they stop doing this?

Trump did promise to bring back torture and reading that list was fucking painful. Sarah Palin Secretary of the Interior? Fucking fuck.

And then you found out that he's been battling cancer right?

And the Republican's just realized they can quit beating around the bush and just say straight up racist shit and win presidential elections.

Yeah Clinton's approach was basically, "hey I can give you an Obama-like third term minus the hope and charm", and a huge part of the country said "fuck that no thanks".

I liked Bernie but I don't think he would've won either. He was very one note. Plus Trump would've used the same attack on Bernie that he effectively used on Hilary, he has years of experience in government but it's bad experience and he has nothing to show for it.

The KKK and various other white power groups that support Trump are not "neutral".

You think the N-Word tape is going to make a difference? A big chunk of his base would love to hear him use the N-word.

They won. They weren't duped. They're in control now. We're fucked and they're going to enjoy fucking us for as long as they're in power. They got what they wanted. They couldn't be happier.

This is a joke, right? You do realize that Trump and Co. have no interest in setting things aside right? Park of his whole thing is blaming others for America's problems. Set things aside? A huge portion of the country wants to ban Muslims, deport Hispanics, stop and frisk brown people, and limit the freedom women

I don't want to admit it but I think you're right. Trump has so completely destroyed my faith in all that is good and right and just that I can easily see him getting another four years.

Yeah uh, no.
