Daily reminder that people actually voted for this man and still support him to this day.

here is strong evidence, however, that the fact-checking of presidential claims is having a small and dwindling impact on true Trump loyalists.
His support remains strong in traditional blue collar areas and evangelical strongholds, where there is more trust in the president than the mainstream media.
The president has relentlessly assaulted the media, launching an attack per day on average since he took office,
denouncing negative news as fake news, and there are signs the relentless offensive has inflicted wounds. One poll released on Friday found that more people trusted the White House than political journalists.
Hopefully this'll mean 2020 isn't bombarded with shitty contenders. I know the phrase is a meme by now, but honestly even at his failing old age, Bernie might actually have a chance. Still hoping for a McCain uprising though.
Its a failure? Could have fooled me. My stocks are at an all time high.

McCain is gonna be 8-fucking-4, dude. Bernie will be 79. If they don't kick the bucket by then, they'll almost certainly die in office. We need someone young.
And no, there is absolutely no reason to believe that 2020 won't be bombarded with shitty contenders. Because it will be. Kanye West is gonna end up winning because you're all fucking idiots and giggling schoolgirls who think this is all a joke.
Everyone jokes about this but I seriously doubt we'll get another meme candidate in 2020.
The only thing I'm worried about is him saying the Checks and Balances are archaic and a bad thing. Not because he will remove them or bypass them in his presidency, but because beating that drum will degrade the power of it over time. Dictators to democratic nations don't suddenly take over from one person all of the sudden (unless it's a coup). The institutions are weakened over time. It's happened plenty of nations, most famously with Rome's Republic.

It's almost funny looking back at when he was just the mayor of Istanbul he was arrested for telling an Islamic poem, now look at where Turkey is.
Finally someone with balls.

Can you tell me what qualities he possesses that you belief would make him excel at the job?
and whatever pandering idiot the dems pick.
