Pls don't ever hero worship any human being especially one I am sure even you are 100% more intelligent and capable than like Trump.

Let me now shock you, Trump is actually unlikely to win re election. Every logical reason you bring to support his winning the re election would be the same mistake that made an over confident Hilary Clinton lose.

CNN panel was looking dejected probably because they know SANDERS or BLOOMBERG are the only ones that will bury Trump and they are frustrated about Biden's drop.

Sanders will bring the power of the hitherto silent millennials and in traditional GOP states like Texas, Louisiana and Atlanta, oil field workers, immigrants and tired middle class to bear on the election.

To you think the DNC got its majority in the House of Reps by magic?. Trump may even lose Utah by insulting Mitt Romney so directly.

So.my question is if Trump supporters are so confident why do they keep saying his re election is a foregone conclusion?.

It is not. Wait till November and see the shocker coming

From where would the shocker come? You mean from the DNC that is tramping on voters rights by rigging the outcome of their primaries? Are you even watching the news at all? Please, read alternative sources and see the facts for yourself.

Many dems voters online are now turning independents following the disgraceful and outrigt robbery that characterizes the just concluded Iowa caucus. You think people will always remain foolish. People are already loosing faith in the DC process that specializes in rigging primaries against certain individuals.

Bernie was robbed in broad daylight, and even the most conservative talk shows are pointing that out already. It's also been alleged that Pete Buttigieg paid the App that did the counting $40, 000 (I don't know how truthful that is). But everyone knows the process was rigged. And there is no kind of shock such a rigging house can deliver come November when people are already losing trust in it.

As things stand now, the dems have no solid political base and figure to unseat Trump. That's the fact.

Lets be real here. Almost all politicians have their family benefit from govt. Do you think George Bush did not benefit from his father's influence in govt? Even Trumps son in law is in charge of multiple strategic positions in this govt.

While it might be shady but its what every politician does so that accusation of his son doesn't really hold much in Political scheme of things

Now to the real politics

40% of Americans will vote for Trump even if he releases a sex tape or kill someone, Another 40% will never vote for him

Trump will never win Massachusetts, New York or California and he will never lose Texas, Alabama or Missisipi

So the election is really about the 20% left. Who among these Democrats can appeal to most of the 20% undecided? Thats why elections usually come down to like 10 states out of 50

Of those left Sanders and Warren claim they are socialists which is anti what America stood for, actually 50-60yrs ago, that political leaning was considered treasonable. There are many Americans who dont want to hear about Socialism or Communism at all

Most of that undecided 20 % will rather vote for the devil than consider a socialist

Biden is not an extremist, he is your regular politician who won't topple the cart, he will simply keep America the way we have known it No radical leanings

That said, A Biden vs Trump contest still favours Trump 60% unless something drastic happens


...Joe Biden is the only Democrat who can cause a big dent to Trump's reelection...he is a moderate...compared to Sanders and Buttigieg...unfortunately the women candidate can't achieve anything...Americans are not yet ready for a female president / C-in-C...

...So just like the Republicans and Trump went after Hillary Clinton about Benghazi and the emails...because they see her as a formidable candidate...they are repeating the same formula against Joe Biden, through his son Hunter Biden's relationship to Ukraine...as 'corrupt'...this will not go away and ultimately will have an impact on Joe Biden during the Democratic primaries...

...The same Treasury dept that was unable to release Trump's tax records are fired up to release information about Hunter Biden...

Treasury complies with GOP Senate inquiry, hands over highly confidential info on Hunter Biden, report says

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/treasury-complies-with-gop-senate-inquiry-hands-over-highly-confidential-info-on-hunter-biden-report-says

The Treasury Department complied with a Republican-controlled Senate inquiry into Hunter Biden's business dealings in Ukraine and handed over highly sensitive financial records and "evidence' of questionable origin," a report on Thursday said.

Biden, the son of former Vice President Joe Biden, has been a favorite target for President Trump and other Republicans who use him as an example of an extreme case of crony capitalism. He once held a $50,000-a-month job with Ukrainian gas giant, Burisima Holdings while his father served under then-President Obama. His father was tasked with handling Ukraine policy at the time.

- Senators, with help from Trump's Treasury Dept., are going after Trump's political rival and his son

Fox News Internal Document Bashes Pro-Trump Fox Regulars for Spreading ‘Disinformation’

https://www.thedailybeast.com/fox-news-internal-document-bashes-john-solomon-joe-digenova-and-rudy-giuliani-for-spreading-disinformation?ref=author

Fox News’ own research team has warned colleagues not to trust some of the network’s top commentators’ claims about Ukraine.

An internal Fox News research briefing book obtained by The Daily Beast openly questions Fox News contributor John Solomon’s credibility, accusing him of playing an “indispensable role” in a Ukrainian “disinformation campaign.”

The document also accuses frequent Fox News guest Rudy Giuliani of amplifying disinformation, as part of an effort to oust former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch, and blasts Fox News guests Victoria Toensing and Joe diGenova—both ardent Trump boosters—for “spreading disinformation.”

The 162-page document, entitled “Ukraine, Disinformation, & the Trump Administration,” was created by Fox News senior political affairs specialist Bryan S. Murphy, who produces research from what is known as the network’s Brain Room—a newsroom division of researchers who provide information, data, and topic guides for the network’s programming.

The research brief is especially critical of Solomon, a former opinion columnist at The Hill whose opinion pieces about Ukraine made unsubstantiated claims about its government interfering in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. Solomon’s pieces for The Hill fueled Giuliani’s efforts to dig up dirt in Ukraine, which eventually helped lead to President Donald Trump’s impeachment. Trump has also frequently cited Solomon’s questionable reporting on Twitter in his own defense.

Most Trump supporters get really scared when the myth of the inevitabilty of his re election is busted.
Re election for where? .
Is it Hilary Clinton on the ballot?
Is Sanders not doing well in Iowa?.
Will he not take NH?

The man is highly intelligent, yet he calls himself a "democratic socialist " in a country they say is moving to the right.
He knows something. The millennials, university kids, highly skilled young professionals. The guys who refused to come out for Hilary. They are coming.
You guys think racism and North-South values split are the issues?
Well listen; health care is an issue, wages are an issue, environment is an issue, women reproductive rights are an issue.
All the above are just the ideological reasons.

What about the Trump reasons? .The greatest misfit in the political history of the US. The most insulted by his own appointees, the president with the most jailed aides and assistants, the one with the most secret tax returns, the unintelligent lies.

You must be joker to say the GOP are losing Texas, Georgia and Florida. Elections were conducted in all three of them during the last mid term elections and Republicans hold all statewide elected offices, both Senate seats and both chambers of the Legislature in all of those three states. You are just another ignorant liberal, go and get informed before you embarrass yourself any further here.

Bernie Sanders is doing well in iowa? Yes, in a democratic party primary!! Even there he only managed to get only 26% of the votes and if you add the percentage of votes accrued by all the moderates combined, it outweighs the percentage won by the progressives. And where was the energized base of millennials Sanders was supposed to turn out? The turn out in iowa was mediocre, well below the record turnout in the 2008 Democrats primaries. Sanders is only a threat to Trump in blue and blue leaning states, in swing and red leaning states, nominating Sanders will be a disaster for Democrats

Despite all you've said, I still believe Trump will be re-elected. I'd love for Sanders to win, but America has always been a capitalistic country. Socialism or anything else is associated with sth negative. Yes, health care is an issue, as well as wages and the environment, but honestly Bernie's goals and ideals of what America should be are more than that of a socialist orientated country like Germany.

I also don't think Americans are ready for that kind of drastic change and Trump's propaganda about socialism isn't helping either. In fact Trump is benefitting from the extreme polarised views in America right now. Therefore will do anything to keep the atmosphere polarized.

U.S. employers add a strong 225K jobs; unemployment up to 3.6%

https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-usa-economy/mild-weather-boosts-u-s-job-growth-but-benchmark-revisions-show-ebbing-momentum-idUKKBN2010G5?il=0

Hiring jumped at the beginning of the year as U.S. employers added 225,000 jobs, bolstering an economy that faces threats from China’s viral outbreak, an ongoing trade war and struggles at Boeing.

The Labor Department also said Friday that a half-million people streamed into the job market in January, though not all of them found jobs. That influx meant more people were counted as unemployed, and it boosted the jobless rate to 3.6%, from a half-century low of 3.5% in December.

https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-usa-trump-emoluments/u-s-appeals-court-throws-out-democrats-lawsuit-challenging-trump-businesses-idUKKBN2011Z7?il=0

A U.S. appeals court on Friday threw out a lawsuit brought by Democratic lawmakers alleging President Donald Trump’s overseas business dealings violate the U.S. Constitution’s anti-corruption “emoluments” clauses.

Reversing a lower court judge, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit said a group of more than 200 Democratic lawmakers lacked legal “standing” to bring the case in the first place.
The three-judge panel said it was bound by U.S. Supreme Court decisions that have limited the ability of individual members of Congress to litigate questions that affect the legislative branch as a whole.

The National Security Council expert who testified in the House impeachment inquiry last year, U.S. Army Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, was escorted out of the White House Friday, his lawyer said.

His twin brother, also an Army lieutenant colonel assigned to the NSC, was also escorted off White House grounds Friday, "suddenly and with no explanation," the lawyer said. Yevgeny Vindman was a lawyer and ethics official on the NSC.

It was unclear if Vindman, the NSC's expert on Ukraine, had been dismissed from his position.

Earlier Friday, President Donald Trump did not deny reports that his White House planned to force out Vindman.

"Well, I'm not happy with him," Trump said when asked by a reporter if he wanted Vindman out of the White House. "You think I'm supposed to be happy with him? I'm not."

The same people who are against “evil” socialism have no issues with receiving Medicare benefits - another government program. grin

Democratic-socialism is all about ensuring that workers, who are the engine of the economy are treated fairly. Also, DS comes along with a healthcare system that ensures that folks wouldn’t be bankrupted by astronomical medical bills.

The guy Vindman that the empty-headed pink colored drama - queen in the White House sacked also dies not want to work with Trump.

Liberals on SM are just painting a picture of persecution to extract propaganda value out of Trump. Same for the Ambassador.
They will get high profile jobs, TV show appearences and speaking engagements Maybe book deals. They are made for life. Just wait 2 months and go find out.

You absolutely have to be a fool working un.Trump White House. Many have gone to Prison. Many appointees even more politically conservative than Trump have resigned in disgust and used the most derogatory words to describe the great joke in history that America now calls President. John Bolting is the latest one.Can you be more conservative and hawkish than Bolton?
Go and ask Bolton about Trump.

So we have many guys in prison, many generals left in disgust, many high profile right wing servants of the American people saying someone is trash....and here some Nigerians are praising that same guy, why?
-Fear of Islam planted by funny websites
-Inferiority complex for the white race
-Mixing religion with contemporary politics
-General fear of institutions and complrx systems and the hope that a plain talking, over-simplifying but intellectually deficient hotelier/golf course owner will provide some hope.

All these are unrealistic expectations. The world is already complex and you cant hate your way into simplifying it.

The political left has never understood that, if you give the government enough power to create "social justice," you have given it enough power to create despotism. Millions of people around the world have paid with their lives for overlooking that simple fact.
