Princeton Prof: Democrats badly underestimated Trump

[cytg111]

His 1987 interview shows that he's been consistent with wanting to make our country better even 30 years ago. He was elected b/c he wasn't the usual backstabbing politician who only looked out for corporate interests first.

He owes it all to Russia .. that is why he ran, he promised Putin he would.

It's just he game republicans play, they love to hold that measuring stick up to others and are perfectly content with their lack of self awareness==Trump, game, set, match.

Republicans have gotten themselves into a position to make long lasting, wide sweeping changes to our so-called democracy that will be felt for generations, even if it's costs their voters specifically. So no, it's not as mudane as you allude.

At this point, I'll disengage from you, because you have admitted this is just a troll forum for you.

You realize that Trump isn't even a real Republican? He doesn't fit the mold of any Republican before him (probably why they hate him). What Repub was for gay rights (very few)? What Repub said in the primaries that he was going to raid the Fed's coffers and increase the deficit? What Repub actually wanted to raise tariffs in a bid to negotiate unfair tariffs levied against us? What Repub called out illegal immigrants and even created a slogan based off of keeping them out? What Repub has pondered legalizing marijuana federally and politically lived to tell about it? What Repub has said that black crime in the urban cities was due to them not having a job and that he's going to help them get one? He's pretty dam unique.

Also, you need to be more specific about "wide sweeping changes". Are you talking about the new tax law? SCOTUS nominations?

Proof is in the pudding. He ran as a republican, and follows the republican playbook. Hes not as unique as you think.

Well they hate him, that should tell you something. I actually hate RINOs, and only dislike Dems. At least Dems keep it real with you. Rino's are probably Trump's worst enemy but he has to play ball with them or he doesn't get anything passed (like the new tax law).

Whatever dude, they're still controlling everything and following the republican playbook.

They are a minority but they control things by the fact that in order to get anything passed you have to play ball with them. McCain, Graham, Ryan and their ilk can't get replaced fast enough. I wouldn't say they're even a majority, similar to the Tea Party.
