Trump predicted "so much winning" if he was elected. We're coming up on 30 days of his presidency, and no matter whether you support him or oppose him, there doesn't seem to be any winning going on. For anyone.

Muslims are being denied entry, Mexican kids are being arrested by ICE, and liberals are miserable. That's all the winning Trump trolls wanted

January 3, 2019-- when the Democrats have a majority in the House of Representatives and the craziness ends.

Muslims are not being denied entry. Trump tried. But he failed.

Muslims from all countries except 7 would have not been denied.

That's the opposite of winning.

He missed a 'h'. The whining from the administration and its lackeys will not end, no matter how tired Americans get of it.

Yeah, he didn't even manage to do ban Muslims from only seven countries.

Big Neil G is an amazing win. Tales will be told about how crafty Mitch stole a Supreme Court seat from the party of stupid.

Plus there's a bunch of funny deadbeats yelling in the streets.

Even if you approve of the Senate Republicans' behavior, I really don't see what makes it "crafty". And no, that is not a request for you to elaborate.

It was as crafty as a troll with a club hitting a rock until it breaks.

Stocks have been up and up, hitting record levels. That is because of Donald Trump. The pipelines are going to be built, our border beefed up, and we will have much more strict immigration policies from the Middle East.

A big tax cut is coming and Neil Gorsuch is will be on the Supreme Court, with possibly more to come.

Plus liberals look ridiculously out of touch with mainstream America.

How poltically aware are the conservative base in America compared to the average usatlas poster? Because all these headlines he is grabbing are exactly what he needs to get re-elected in 4 years, regardless of when he actually pushes them through legally. They'll turn up for him now because he showed them he was serious in banning muslims, taking away abortion rights and deporting illegals. Wall not built yet? They'll find a way to blame ''The Liberals''.

I don't believe mainstream is. What's more mainstream? Definition: the ideas, attitudes, or activities that are regarded as normal or conventional.

What's normal about New York City saying there are 31 gender "identities"?
What's normal about a black cop justifiably shooting a black criminal in Milwaukee and black lives matters protesters saying "Let's burn down the black suburbs."
What's normal about having open borders in the most powerful country in the world?
What's normal about letting in Muslim refugees when some of them can go to Ohio State and decide to kill innocent Americans?
What's normal about being penalized for wanting to choose your own health insurance?

The Democrats may be a lot of things, but they're far from the mainstream. So you may have big protests in many major cities. Well organized, far from "peaceful". Most of them kids with rich parents who voted for Trump. They'll outgrow it someday.

Until then, we will keep winning while watching all of the Chris Hayes-Rachel Maddow lookalikes scrambling frantically, searching desperately for inner cities precinct votes in the hopes of stopping the mainstream from winning.

Naso once again perfectly encapsulates the mindset of the average 60 year old white conservative.

Over the past 2 years they've gone from "The GOP is NOT racist!" to "What's wrong with being racist?"

It's not racism. Racism has become something liberals shout when they lose the argument. Now, tell me again, what is "normal and mainstream" about what "progressives" support?

Nothing. That's when you yell racism or sexism or whatever. You lose the argument.

you are correct regarding your synthesis, mister.

i would only add that this doesn't mean that there isn't racism or - more to the point - culturalism.

it's just neither clever nor very successful to point it out. dead for any kind of political argument.

The only standard of winning, I suppose, is this: will your legacy be upheld or overturned? The day to day battles are one thing but how confident are you that in eight years Trump's legacy won't be simply overturned like Obama or Bush?

Answer: right now you don't. And people like ReaganFan ignore that the SJW Clinton strategy won 48% of the vote. And dominated major areas of the country, including 48% of the House vote going to the Dems. So. . stop the inevitability crap. You look like a rube and someone from the Obama left in 2009.

Trump's constantly maintaining his opposition and giving them energy and at this rate, he's also making himself politically vulnerable the moment a recession hits. Plus? The minute the Democratic Party wins Congress (and you know they will take at least one chamber within the next 2-6 years), the investigations will begin, including into Russia. You wanna bet whatever comes up is gonna look good to the country?

This is why Trump's constantly screwing up and playing to the base will backfire on his biggest supporters. The guy is so obsessed with day to day crap that he doesn't have a long term game.

And lol, Supreme Court, guys. Did the Bush appointments stop gay marriage? The Court will go where the country is and always has.

i understand where you are coming from and you are entitled to your judgement regarding the prepositions you described.

just...if more people vote for the party often linked to those "illogical" positions, wouldn't that be the mainstream by definition?
