Ratings? Hahahahahahaha!! If we were to believe ratings, the Hilary would be president and not Trump. In Georgia they told us Jon ossof the democrat was leading every poll but when the elections came guess who won? Karen Handel the Republican. Right now in Virginia they are telling us Republican Ed Gillespie is about 20 points behind the Democratic party candidate. Can't wait for voting to start to prove to this idiots who come out with all this useless polls that they are nothing but trash. Trump's rating is in the gutter but for electoral contests has been held this year and guess who won all of them? The guys that Trump supported won. So much for a guy that is supposed to be very unpopular
The rating where right, they said Hillary will edge it, she will win slightly was what it said, well I thing it was more than slight...2 million is not a joke, what they didn't factor in was the electoral college. She won the popular vote which the rating was about.

The ratings did factor in the electoral college. They said Hilary would win in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania (They called it her blue wall) she lost all three. If she had won them, she'd have won the electoral college. The polls have almost always been wrong about Trump and I believe they are wrong now. The Georgia run-off polls proved it. If we were to believe the polls, the GOP candidate would have lost that by about five points because of Trump's supposed unpopularity but guess what it wasn't even close. She trashed the democratic candidate by about ten points. If Trump were so unpopular as the polls would have us believe, how come the candidates he supported have won every single elections held this year?

Hillary Lost, not a big deal...she will never be the worst American president, George Bush Jr, was glad humpty Drumpty Came around to save his a*s

Trump is worst president for proscribing ISIS whom Obama propped ?

Trump is worst President for openly voicing his repulsion towards gay marriage , transgenders in the military and for banning illegal migrants and undeserving Muslims?

He is not so popular, voters were depressed because of the massive propaganda against Hillary, those who could have voted for are stayed off

Help yourself bro. Trump never said kneeling was illegal. Stop manufacturing fake news. He called unpatriotic and he is right about that. And except you have not been following the news, you will know that all the things you mentioned North Korea, obamacare repeal and tax reforms are been addressed. Trump is doing a great job.

Wow, hear yourself.

Firstly, I don't like mixing words.
If you know what the First Amendment says, you won't type the above.
Kindly show us what makes the kneeling "unpatriotic"; if flag burning according to the US Supreme court is within the rights of a citizen; with relevant sections to back that lousy claim.
I'm waiting for what qualifies kneeling down during the anthem, a legitimate peaceful protest, as unpatriotic. Especially if you understand what the original idea of the founding of America and how Mr. Trump calls right-wing activists "nice people" under the present socio-political climate



As for the rest, I think it's safe to say Trump hasn't achieved anything tangible since assuming office:
North Korea is escalating beyond control. He is engaging their leader in a face off that he appears to be losing.
The Obama-care repeal is as good as DEAD since even members of his own party are disowning voting for it's repeal.
Tax reform, please that one hasn't even gone anywhere.

Yet you tell me he is doing something about it.

Trump is busy whipping up twitter storms instead of being a leader when the situation demands. Spitting invectives instead of inspiring. His supporters will talk about the economy when it is only the boomerang effect of the Obama years.
Even the lunatic in Pyongyang knows he is a hot air bag.

You are standing with these idiots claiming that are protesting against racism but then you show your stupidity by being a tribal goat.

Foolish hypocrite!

You that is an intolerant racist to your fellow black man is now siding with these illiterate frauds?

Do you see how you just exposed your foolishness?

Afonja bastard goat

How can I be tribal when I'm an Igbo man stating an observation that the majority of reetarded Nigerian Trump bootlickers I see across social media and cyberspace tend to be Igbo. The fuckktards feel some kind of weird kinship with a man who would only sneer at you in utter contempt. grin As I've said, you clowns are mentally ill.

And don't kid yourself. Majority of those NFL players you're calling illiterate have far better education than you do. You don't get much dumber than a black fuccktard that posts memes from white supremacist sites. You're exactly the kind of house negro and porch monkey and useful idiiot to white supremacists who would have abused Muhammad Ali for rejecting the Vietnam draft because he was "disrespecting the country".

You must be a master of exageration...the whole America indeed! Aren't you tired of your phony polls and statistics?

Same polls that said Hilary will win both electoral and general vote by a landslide? Keep fooling yourself. Core Trump voters are not on facebook or twitter. They show up silently and exercise their love for America.
All haters of America (like you expressed your hate up there) will be disappointed.

For your information, your protest has just begun. Trump will rule till 2024 and then handover to Mike pence who will rule for another 8 years..

I can smell inferiority complex all over you. With your comments and others like you, black race needs mass re-education I swear. I know people like you, you are the type that will lick a white man's shiit at any given opportunity
I was concrete sure you were going to bring the " inferiority complex argument " just like morons playing race card when they have nothing in their head to put forward in the name of sound argument with critical thinking abilities.

I have come to realize that people like only want to be superior by calling white people racist, that's not superiority. Superiority is creating African continent where blacks all over the world can point to as evidence that we are superior, superiority is creating technologies to rival the west, superiority is stopping tribal hate , before you fight racism if there's anything like that , superiority is creating perfect free speech in Africa before telling Americans they don't have free speech in their country.

You morons most likely begged for a visa to come to USA , they gave you one, you escaped the carnage placed on you by your fellow black man. Now you have mouth to call them racist.

I do not blame you, prove your superiority by actions not by mouth. South Africa is the only shining country in Africa , guess what their white population is actively involved in nation building hence their rapid development.

When you call anybody racist, look your self in the mirror. Native Americans endured the worst treatment in USA history, you hardly hear them scream racism on tv.

Burn the NFL.

It is unpatriotic to disrespect your national anthem and flag. Any one wit half wit knows that but that doesn't make it illegal.Trump spoke of the act being unpatriotic and not the illegality of it like you claimed. And it is obvious you don't follow the news otherwise you would know that two obamacare repeal and replace bills have been brought up at the capitol. One by Ryan passed the house and failed in the senate, the second graham-cassidy bill was just introduced in the senate but they failed to get the requisite votes to pass it and they already working on a third proposal to repeal O'care so how can you say nothing is being done? Trump has banned immigration from about 7 countries and just added another three countries to the travel ban recently. He also ended the DACA "dreamer" act and a new bill has just been presented to the public to replace it.Trump has also implemented stronger measures against illegal immigrants and the results are already showing. Illegal immigration is down by 46% and arrests of illegal immigrants is up by 28% How can you say nothing is being done? As for tax reforms, it's in the works. A lot of works are going on in both chambers at the Capitol and a tax reform bill will soon be proposed. It has been in the news for long. How on earth can you say nothing is being done? I don't know which planet you have been living in but you can click the links below and get informed on all the facts and figures I just gave you
