This is NOT why 45 won, Ignorance, a poor opposing candidate, and a slick con job is why he won. Anything that you can think of will neatly fit under one of these categories.

Please move us to the "Off Topic" thread before @Sportster becomes apoplectic and gives both of us one of these:

What was the con job? As far as I can tell, he is exactly what most of us thought he was. As already posted, the reason why he won was he had opposition that was worse. That’s hard to fathom, huh?

Actually, the reason he won is his opponent. That is the sole reason he won.
Sure, if you believe that everyone votes for or against a candidate for the exact same reasons, then yeah I can see that

you ( not you personally ) just stereo typed a group of people disdainly , i might add and you think that they didnt vote for 45 because of that ?? its the russins that did it ?

it couldnt be that he was voted in because they disagree with the previous presidents policies

i bet there are certain groups of people that if i stereo typed them that wouldnt go over well

Yeah I get that, but people vote or don't vote for all kinds of reasons. In fact let me ask you if it's possible that some people voted for the "R" or "D" because this is how they've always voted. Candidate be damned, they vote party. Now be honest, isn't that true?

Very true but party goes with ideology.

Hard to fathom huh? Possibly, except that's exactly what I wrote in my response. Did you miss that? or are you just so limited by tunnel vision that you didn't realize that, quoting myself, "a poor opposing candidate" referred to his opposition?

Now about that con job...people familiar with this idiot already knew that he was not fit for office, even now if he dared to run for dog catcher in New York, his home he would lose and lose badly to a goat. The trick, or "con" was in convincing enough voters in that part of the country who didn't know him, that he was fit for office. He's succeeded in doing that and NOW the rest of the country is quickly finding out what we already knew about him.

OK, I see that, so it's still NOT the candidate or that lack of a better opponent as it was in this case, it's likely that ideology /party as well. That is my point.

Alfred Morris thus far 8 rushes 67 yards 1 fumble. In fact I think that there should be a new thread for this. Possibly a sticky one ?

It's a damn shame Oakland is about to lose their football team. Not sure what I would do if Snyder moved the Skins.

There is a lot more money in Las Vegas than Oakland and if I remember right Oakland wouldn't do a new stadium deal. I would liked to have seen Oakland stay there. I didn't like when they went to Los Angeles … not shocked though. The 49ers keep a team in the Bay area.

awfully hard to ask the bay area residents to foot the bill for a new stadium with all the local poverty issues they are having

I get it. That fanbase was crazy last night and they know they are leaving. If the Skins moved and kept the colors and name I would root for them even if D.C. got another team. Too many family moments watching the Skins with my late father to ever switch.

Riddle me this , I was watching the Laura Ingraham show of fox last night . She did a segment on the NFL protestors. It seems that the NFL is donating 73 mil dollars to left wing groups run by Van Jones. And financed by George Soros . President Trump is looking at prison reform which focuses on keeping hard core criminals in jail while rehabbing others with his 2nd chance program . Now the interesting thing is she had President Trump on tape telling the NFL football players and anyone else that. If anyone knew of anyone who had or knows a friend or anyone who has been treated unfairly by the courts that he has a committee. Set up and if he finds that they were treated unfairly he will pardon them or set the free ! My questions are as follows 1) why hasn’t that prima Donna Colin Kaepernick took him up on the offer and 2). Why is so called ate up Fox News the only ones who reported and showed the offer on TV ? That begs the question is this about justice or idealogy.

The offer was made in June .

So, the new timeline:


4/10/17: Strzok texts Lisa Page wanting to discuss a "media leaking strategy."

4/12/17: Strzok texts Lisa Page that two articles are coming about "her namesake" (Carter Page)

4/22/17: Strzok texts Page: “article is out!" and "Well done, Page”

Dates that somehow a poster won’t understand or get amnesia about
