I'm no leftie...its not rocket appliances to see what Trump has done here though...He won one demographic, uneducated whites.
 
He pretends to be a Christian and uses boomer bait for power.  Sorry if you guys fell for it or continue to fall for it.  None of the nonsense he talks about is happening except the tax breaks for the rich.
 
Cost of living in the US is not coming down for the average Joe Dirt.

No, one of those people who sees “free healthcare” and can’t functionally comprehend that it refers to “publicly funded and free at point of service healthcare” so they say, “um, well actually…” and everyone has to patiently listen to them act like they’re the first ones to realize something everyone else figured out in high school.
 
That person.

If Canada starts grabbing Democratic states, which also happen to be, by far the most economically successful, what's left is going to be about as economically successful as Mexico.  Canada would acquire massive wealth generation potential, so it's all pretty affordable.

He pretends to be a Christian and uses boomer bait for power.  Sorry if you guys fell for it or continue to fall for it.  None of the nonsense he talks about is happening except the tax breaks for the rich.
