9 Nines Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 President Trump is a rich kid that had everything handed to him his whole life while also having the scars of having an overpowering father. From that experience, outside of his early childhood, where it is noted he was denied even common things, he was given everything he wanted as a young adult, and always got his way with others to become the bully his father was to his younger self. Now, he will be faced with something new. For possibly the first time in his life, someone besides his father, will hold power over him - an equal branch of government with legal authority to force his Administration to do things he does not want it do. What will he do? He will likely either cower as he did much of his childhood to his father, or he will lash out as he did as a bully his whole life. Either one will be highly amusing to watch.

Justafan Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 It's completely unpredictable because he's a baby and doesn't behave in any way that would be considered rational. He's likely to lash out as much as possible and do some things that are stupid, especially as more and more of the truth about him and his corrupt as fuck family start to get out.

'Nator Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 Hate to say it but this might get him re-elected. He has someone to play foil against. If they economy tanks near 2020, it's all cuz of the Dems in the house. "I had it working amazing, and they came along". His voters are retarded. They will buy it 100%. A part of me wanted to see him eventually fail with all the chips so that they wouldn't have any excuses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A part of me wanted to see him eventually fail with all the chips so that they wouldn't have any excuses. He won by around 100K total votes combined in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. He did that with low-turnout among Bernie-types and Democrats who thought Clinton had it wrapped up. And all three had republican governors to help republicans in the actual election process across each state. Democrats won governorships in all three last night. So scratch off the latter. Based on young voters and Democrats overall making last night one of the highest voter turnout elections, I think the former is gone also. If he wins every state he did last time, but loses those three (again, around 100K votes combined for his margin in 2016), he would get less than 270, which means the Democrat got over 270. President Trump is an underdog all-else equal right now. https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/07/politics/democrats-rebuild-blue-wall-michigan-pennsylvania-wisconsin/index.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is another thing. He barely won and she ignored those three states for the most part. Trump would be unlikely to win any state that Clinton did. Demographics and anger are completely against him in them. Therefore, Democrats will not have to heavily use resources in the states Clinton won - defend/not ignore but not have to spend much. That means more resources for those three key state. On the other hand, republican resources are going to be spread thin having to waste resources in three large states that Democrats do not even need. Trump will have to defend Florida and Ohio, just because his path to reelection would be very hard without both - two big states that will take material resources. Also, if Beto O'rourke runs for Senate again against Cornyn (indirect votes for president from straight ticket voting) or is the presidential or vice-presidential nominee (direct votes for president), republicans will have to waste resources in Texas, a very large state with three large media markets and a couple of medium-sized ones, just as they did this year.

Remember when Kansas went all red all across the board, and instituted all red policies that then fail spectacularly? Did you see what happened in Kansas last night? I sort of wanted that to happen to the country. Show 'em what happens when conservative policies are implemented all across the board. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the "heartland" is souring on Trump. They are good and decent people. The renegades in the low population West and crazies in Florida are probably the last of Trump's true base.
