Not really in either case.
BS of course Conservatives and Liberals voted for those two in droves.
Not really in either case.
Anytime someone wins they always take it as a mandate for all people. Neither side has figured out yet that whenever they have full control the public gets pissed off and votes the other side in coming elections. And, both sides are obstructionists trying to thwart the other side so that when voters get pissed off at the gridlock the other party will assume control and will claim that they have a mandate and we just keep on going around the merry-go-round.
Now that the election is over. And the competitiveness on the election goes away, we (the people) will go back to hating both political parties. That was the trend that was building up until the election campaigns poured massive amounts of money into the conversation. But as the reality that both the GOP and the DNC are not actually doing anything good creeps back into peoples minds, the voters will remember that they change they wanted was not a new president shoving the same old **** down our throats.
I oppose political parties, but outside of my personal feelings about them, the change needed is for Democrats and Republicans to change theirs parties by getting rid of those politicians that are toxic to our freedoms and liberties. To vote out the ones that use tactics like gridlock etc.
I'm anxious to see how hard the Dems are going to block Obamacare reform. Their own constituents are getting killed with premium increases. Wondering just how stupid they STILL are...
There is no way they can block it. The Republicans & Trump are going to win that round 100% for sure.
The Democrats have a slew of Senate seats to defend in '18. If they block Trump & the GOP-controlled Congress, they will have to go home and face the hundreds of thousands of angry constituents who are seeing their premiums skyrocket.
Constituents: "You said this was gonna be affordable! It isn't so affordable anymore."
Dem CongressCritter: "Um...uh..uh..."
Constituents: "Why didn't you support the hleathcare reform bill created by the Republicans?"
Dem CongressCritter: "Uh...um...*gulp*..."
Constituents: "Prepare for unemployment, you prick!"
