Well, if another depression hits, it's going to hit you too. If you are worried about that possibility, perhaps a change of strategy is needed to ensure the people you want in power can win elections.

It'll hit all of us to varying degrees. Well, unless we happen to be phenomenally rich in the first place. It's good to be that when everybody else is broke, busted & begging. That's when you can really put the bone to 'em. Until they come to their senses & start thinking in terms of we & us, instead of the conservative mantra of me & mine.

Worshipping at the altar of greed along with the financial elite doesn't mean they respect you. Far from it. They know you're just another chump who's falling for their job creator bullshit.

I was going strictly by the ads myself and many Americans who were watching shows on Discovery, History, Travel, and Science Channels viewed many times a night for a couple of months. How many voters do you think came in here or other political related places? A thousand or two? How many saw ths ads run on the channels I mentioned? Hundreds of thousands?

If that's the standard we're been going by, coverage all over the news of trump lackeys for months look to be directly correlated to the aforementioned "that bitch hillary" sentiment expressed well beyond whatever positivity over trump policy. Shame this is so hard for you to figure out.

That plus the people who swung the election are traditional Democrat voters. The Dems relied on "I'm not Trump" and promises of the same old social programs, ignoring both that those programs do nothing to keep their jobs and that these people want jobs, not handouts. That was a tactical mistake of the first water. Other supposedly Democrat-owned constituencies such as Hispanics and blacks also demonstrated some erosion, and across the country, Hillary won a record low number of counties. (Except for "go away, we're still counting" California, obviously.) Democrats need to examine their beliefs. Instead, they are furiously blaming the Russian boogeyman and trying to figure out how to keep power in spite of losing.

You're right that tradtional dem voters swung the election. They stayed home, victim to the right wing slime machine that buried Hillary under a tsunami of it.

I do love the way you reference the whole thing about counties. I'm pretty sure Trump won nearly every backwater in America, the places the Job Creators left behind-

I never saw any of that because I chose not to watch main stream media news nor did I waste untold hours every day in here. Though I did see the ads I've mentioned more than once in this thread. Guess you'll have to deal with the present the uneducated have given you for the next 4 years. Maybe in 2020 the Dems will run less negative ads and take the time to reach out to these voters.

because if he (Trump) isn't careful, he is walking a thin line.
Rebellion or Insurrection:

And people thought it was crazy right wingers that wanted to overthrow the US government.
Now the highest treat / priority for our intel agencies is folks who believe your crap.
Fringe will be screaming rooskies all the way down to the asylum.

This is the left's equivalent of Obama the Muslim Communism Kenyan Space Alien.

Pretty sure your sort's news outlets covered it even more, which is why you were all about them emails until they told you it was unimportant. Just as they've been telling you to downplay the roaring success of this and that about indigenous looking mexicans and blaming it on them leftists instead.

The vast majority of voting Americans didn't read nor care about the emails. Only political junkies cared

On that note it was Comey who did all the damage.
Voters would have heard "new emails, more crimes" as one final note before voting. The rebuttal wouldn't have rang out as loud.

You can call it "fringe" all you want. It doesn't change the fact that this is happening right in front of you.

Please. It was the whole astounding stream of the most incredible bullshit imaginable, perfect exploitation of Brandolini's law. Comey just added to the din.

My sort? You have no clue who I am or what my political stances are on most things. As I told you I don't waste untold hours in here or reading or watching news on a daily basis. What roaring success? You and the elites learning a life lesson of losing an election? I know people of Mexican descent that vote GOP and dislike illegal immigration to the US.

Why don't you show some of that hidden brain trust deep thinker, starting with glorifying the virtues of collective tard strength.

Other countries avoid these issues by censoring the crap out of media and internet.

All we can do is that air america radio crap.
And subliminal Michael Jackson videos.
Damn world you scary

Land of the free.. And easy to manipulate.. No such thing as a free lunch it seems.

Let me get this straight. Democrats and liberals are upset Russia exposed their corrupt emails to the public? Your mad you got caught. What a joke...
Sure, a congressional investigation into Russian Hacking can happen as soon as charges are filed against Hillary Clinton for leaking classified information. That would seem fair and bipartisan.

Lets try it another way.
You sir, are knee deep in a messy divorce with the mrs.
You are an asshole.
Your mrs is definitely a whore.
Divorces are a messy business but you manage somehow get an agreement going - lawyers laughing all the way to the bank, papers not signed yet though.
Introduce me.
I am a creep AND I live next door to you.
I like to watch people. With a camera. I keep an archive.
That means I know for fact what you have been doing with the babysitter for at least the past six months. Dirty asshole she's only 17.
I also know for a fact that your mrs IS a whore. In fact I got her live action on camera too.
Now back to the divorce - and I really do think you are an asshole, hmmm. You know what? I am gonna stick it to you, who knows, with you out of the picture maybe I can get in on the whoring on your mrs as well.
So I leave an envelope behind the whiskers on your mrs car, 100% anonymous. - Imagine her surprise.
You know how that story ends?
She got the goldmine.
You got the shaft.
She got the goldmine.
You got the shaft.

But hey, you cant really be mad at me, can you bro? I mean, you did do the dirty, you did do the deed.
Doesnt really matter who shafted you, what matters is that at least some of the truth was exposed.
Right?
right?

And if the Dems in power "think" (lol) like this, you'll be enjoying eight years of Trump plus four to eight of Pence.

Trump & the Repubs are making some mighty big promises to those folks, promises they have absolutely no intention of honoring. Meanwhile, they'll cut the supports right out from under a lot of poor places in this country, mostly red places. It'll be awful hard to blame Dems, but I'm sure they'll try.
