Donald J. Trump And The Slow Arrival Of Buyers’ Remorse (Democrats still scratching their heads)
The Huffington Post ^ | November 1, 2017 | David Coates and Lauren Tarde

You might be forgiven for thinking ― given all that has happened since Donald J. Trump defeated Hillary Clinton for the U.S. presidency in November 2016 ― that buyers’ remorse would be rampant in contemporary America. But it is not. It is true that Donald J. Trump started his presidency capturing only a minority of the popular vote; and that he is significantly less popular in polls taken today than he was on election day. But very substantial pockets of support remain. They remain among members of his electoral base. They remain among life-long Republicans, not all of whom greeted his emergence as their presidential candidate in 2016 with any great enthusiasm; and they remain – as far as one can tell – in the deepest recesses of the Alt-Right. In those circles at least, there is much talk of seven years of Donald J. Trump in the White House; and for those of us who do not care for that prospect, the immediate political imperative is clear. We need to understand who voted for the Trump-Pence ticket in 2016, why they did so, and whether any or all of them can be dissuaded from doing so again in 2020.

One way of doing that is to build a detailed map of promises made, constituencies mobilized, and commitments delivered; so that – properly armed with the record of aspiration and achievement – the debate in 2018 and 2020 can be built on solid evidence rather than on fake facts.....

The Huffpo smells bad enough as it is, but combine it with this article, and it will drive you out of your tank.

Are Dems anymore popular today than they were on election day in Alabama, Texas, Wisconsin, North Carolina, South Carolina. The question isn’t about Trump even, it’s where are the Dems gaining Strength? Wisconsin may now be Republican for a good while which means they’ve got to get PA, MI back and at least one more state. What is that state?

The ‘Popular Vote’ flap is still waiting a jury verdict from the Voter Integrity Commission.

The popular poll plunge is propagada.

This is HuffPo which is a bad elixir for leftist minds who need a daily shot of Anti-Trump sedation.

BTW, If economy is booming I would submit that they’re NOT getting PA back in that environment.

What does it matter ‘how popular’ Trump is or is not?

Shouldn’t we be concerned about “Is he doing his job?” question?

There is no remorse. Only more people swallowing the red pill and jumping on TRUMP Train. That’s because it is becoming clearer every day that Obama did NOTHING. He left ISIS/terrorism, Taxes, Opioid Crisis,V A fiasco...all untouched and unaddressed. Also North Korea, immigration, and joblessness.

All those things being addressed and fixed by President Trump. He will win in 2020 landslide.

I think Donald Trump is an asshole.

But I would crawl through broken glass to vote for him again.

Does that make me a Broken Glass Asshole?

Ah yes, the polls again. Because they were so unbelievably accurate before the election.

Dems think simply wishing something is true makes it true. Like they think Hillary is President and Trump is not because that’s what they wished for.

Yada yada yada. It’s the leftwingnuts who are a pathetic minority. Most people who vote RAT are not idealogues but just moochers voting for free stuff.
