So everyone is just going to shrug at Trump's request to change the 14th amendment, but anytime the 2nd gets brought up, there's a fight?
- Everyone on the republican side you mean?zarkonite
- I feel like this is major and something you don't see Dems complaining about.bainbridge
- i don't think the Dems have ever seen these kinds of tactics before, they are stymied.robotron3k

People are really starting to believe this caravan is going to threaten their lives and that illegal immigrants are costing us so much money by taking benefits and not contributing.

This is a perfect metaphor for Trump's USA

For all the fuckery and big noting by Trump and his pack of lying cunts, the fact is Obama’s Administration created more jobs in his final 21 months in office than Trump’s has in his first 21 months. Just a fucking con.

So has Trump actually done things to boost the economy? NPR says jobs growth is good and unemployment is low.
- My dad who's in investment says prez has little to do w/ the overall economy. Trump's caused some flux but the economy would be good no matter who was in the WHmandomafioso
- You can thank President Obama for the the unemployment rate, particularly the African American unemployment rate.mg33
- It's categorically insane to think Trump can take sole credit for it being so low, when the latter of the figures barely decreased 2% on his watch.mg33
- The Obama administration saw it decrease from 16.8% in 2010 to 7.8% in 2017. It's impossible for Trump to ever say he's decreased it by more than Obamamg33
- Even if we hit 0% AA unemployment, that percentage decrease will be less than what Obama accomplished.mg33
- And I'm only pointing this out because that's all that matters to Trump. He doesn't care that more black people have jobs. He cares that he can brag about doingmg33
- something that Obama didn't, which isn't anywhere remotely true in this context.mg33

Politics in the US is like a sport and ego-driven. You support your time no matter what and want it to win, and more importantly, you want the opposing team to lose. Badly.
- I agree, To me that is the biggest problem with the mindset of the electorate, they view their side as infallible and the other as "the enemy"...kirshar12
- As a moderate, I feel completely isolated from my own country's politics....kirshar12
- you support your *team (not time)chukkaphob
- @kirshar12 +1000chukkaphob
- In the case of Trump, politics aren't even a factor. He's simply unfit for the role or any party.monospaced
- This is because the country is harshly divided. A huge portion of our populace are racist dimbulbs that treat politics like sports. If the left doesn't..garbage
- ..respond in kind they get steam-rolled. Factor in inert racism that many were just keeping to themselves, the dumbest fucking president of all time..garbage
- ..and major media outlets licking their lips at every morning's new scandal, and you've got what we got. It's depressing.garbage
- It's Facebook and clickbait sensationalizing trigger points. Talking common ground and actually getting shit done wouldn't make FB a penny.formed

My prediction is that if the Democrats make enough gains today we're going to see in the next two years Trump stabbing republicans in the back repeatedly just to look like he can still get shit done. He's not a conservative, he'll do anything to stroke his ego and augment his fame.
- If the Dems take the House today, Trump will get re-elected because the Dems house will rally the conservatives to vote him back in for a second termKrassy
- If House goes blue, watch stocks tumble tomorrow. If House stays red, stocks will leap.robotron3k
- You always mention stocks, but fail to realize the market was down 5.07% in October under Don the Con.hobgoblin
- robo fails to understand that the stock market isn't connected to this election, and this will be proven tomorrowmonospaced
- only drooling retards think the stock market would be affected by a house majority for either partymonospaced
- damnit, robo. .. why do you like being wrong about everything?monospaced
- he's a trump fanboy. simple as that.inteliboy
- robo you really don't understand much about finance and the economy...zarkonite
- He likes getting a rise out of you guys mostly.zarkonite
- Oh I know. And I like to be there to point and laugh.monospaced
- Looks like the stock market is up this morning, as it should be since nothing of economic significance happened overnight.zarkonite
