Trump won the Presidency by the electoral college and also with support from citizens that are not part of Trump's 30% base. The average voter has a job, has family activities and does not have the time and or energy to fully vet Trump's history in 2016. Hilary and Bill Clinton's history were well known. Thus the devil known Hilary vs the devil unknown Trump. With Bill's impeachment, and easily connecting Hilary to Bill, well, it was easy to sell the crooked Hilary rhetoric. It's obvious now as revealed by Trump's own lips and by all TV news outlets, MSM and can you believe Fox, also written news, Trump may go down as the most crooked politician ever. If he makes it to 2020, and is unable to use the juvenile, unsubstantiated campaign approach of name calling and lies what's left for him. He shows no ability to research and use evidence for his arguments. Will Trump become irrelevant and un-electable to citizens from places like Pennsylvania. Also, please advise on whether he has actually helped the people of the rust belt and coal mining which created electoral college votes
 
in presidential elections,

1. unlikable legacy candidates generally lose.

2. the more interesting candidate almost always wins.

i did not vote for Hillary because of whitewater and the murderous rampage she and her husband instituted in its aftermath. I believe the count now exceeds 135.

The assertion that Trump was unknown is a joke - the press gave him relentless negative coverage leading up to the 2016 election. Trump campaigned on taxing less and spending more - virtually assuring us that deficit spending was his goal. Unless the demorats yield to the temptation to go much further left to "appease the base" in 2020 then Trump will not be re-elected despite a better than usual economy (obtained by having $1T annual federal deficits?). I also don't rule out the possibility of a third party candidate (or two?) reeking havoc on the 2020 POTUS election.

I agree, but maybe people are no longer just interested, and now see that an interesting candidate can be harmful to our country. I like to read and research and during the 2016 campaign I looked into by reading multiple sources Trump and Hilary's history and policies each appeared tainted. Well Hillary did not get the Presidency and we had one of the tainted persons. The rhetoric I remember was, don't worry that Trump appears to be a loose cannon, possibly to the point of harming the U.S., because the smart people around him will keep him in line. Currently, if cabinet member's, gov't agency directors or staff do not blindly support Trump or lie for him they are either fired or forced out.

RV says, “ it’s all good. Secret service teams should always be exterminated. “
 
“ I demand you set this hilicopter back on the whitehouse lawn so I can get my sunglasses “
 
Many lessons will be taken from Trump and adjustments made as required to avoid a repeat in the future but those will be very hard won insights and repairing the damage to our reputation, alliances and Constitution will take decades to institute. At this point we must be on guard against further damage.

None of that happened and it is just right wing nut job lies.

So you are denying all 135 either died by accident or suicide?

Trump was mostly unknown because, in 2016: Fox news, Trumps lies, hiding of his taxes, and Putin interference was used to confuse the voter. The voter said, well MSM is revealing facts that contradict Fox and Trump what should we believe? They went for the devil less known

2020 will be an important year for Democrats. they should show up and field a candidate this time.

Remember that logic if Trump makes it to 2020

Where is this evidence? Please show Fox, MSM, conservative, and liberal research on this. If true the good thing is the Clinton's are done. Please use the same judgement on Trump

I remember what her husband did to William Colby. Only congress or a presidential decree can deny a bodyguard to one who has been assigned one. And the very day His was taken away, he committed suicide......... by decapitation with a Steinway F string.

Do your own research if you really care about ethics. Youllfeel better about yourself when you do.

I’m saying Hilary had nothing to do with it. You guys just make yourselves look foolish each time.

That was her security team in the med. not bills.

As soon as you cited the highlighted above, you lost me.

Seriously, to base ANYTHING on the TV news outlets, MSM, Fox, written news...not to mention the rest of the Trump hating echo chamber and their cadre of talking potato heads, you would have to be totally devoid of the ability to form a single original thought on your own.

Now...to address your last sentence...would you rather a politician focus solely on a particular area at the expense of all other parts of the US? Or would you rather a politician work to raise economic levels all over the country? After all, EVERY area of the country has electoral votes.

They should. But the $84,000,000 question is will they

Who are "they"? Would (half of?) "they" be the one's referred to as deplorable and/or felt completely ignored by the Hillary campaign? One only need listen to the MSM constantly use opinion based adjectives and adverbs to describe persons and events in its "news" presentation to know that they are biased.

How many MSM "news" reporters have asked dear Nancy Pelosi to explain how placing a physical barrier on the border, which she has fully supported in the recent past, is "immoral"? When the MSM echoes demorat talking points, such as a "manufactured" crisis, then only a moron would not see the bias. I'm not, by any means, saying the Fox News does not also do this on a regular basis but when you hear adjectives such as '"extreme", "far right/left" or "out dated", or adverbs such as "highly" or "radically", applied to polciy positions that is simply opinion being offered as news.

When there is no separation between news and opinion then we are being cheated by the press. Each "side" is then left to seek ever more confirmation bias and freely mimics the opinionated talking points presented as facts by the "news" media.
 
This whole endless cycle of insanity is becoming incredibly tiresome...
