Why no trump option? He will win by a mile and co trol both houses.
Because we're discussing reality, not fantasy.Trump's shot himself in the foot by taxing the average American more. Not that the fact he's a huge embarrassment for America but the tax issue has driven his own supporters against him. Up against someone like O'Rourke or Delaney, he's got no chance.
Trump barely won against Hillary who actually received more votes than Trump did. Had this been a UK style FPTP election he wouldn't have even been president.

FPTP doesn't mean that the majority vote wins. It depends how they carve up the constituencies. It's just as biased as their current electoral college system. It would need to have been proportional representation to guarantee Hillary the win last time.NoNeed said:

People thought he would lose last time, I guess they haven't learned much.
Some voters will have learned The swamp hasn’t been drained and financially they are worse off

I have plenty of family and friends scattered across the country and wealth spectrum with whom I stay in touch. I have no doubt as things stand now, Trump will win the next election.

The average American has done very well under his presidency, hence his enduring popularity and despite what the BBC might tell you.

Many of my US colleagues are doing worse, not getting the tax refunds they had been expecting.I have plenty of family and friends scattered across the country and wealth spectrum with whom I stay in touch. I have no doubt as things stand now, Trump will win the next election.
Either way though, it's amazing to think that for those people who consider themselves slightly better off financially, being humiliated daily by a clown (who is also likely a traitor) is less important to them.

Id say those who cried and wailed when Trump won and bleat on about it day after day desperate for any bit of tattle to try and change a democratic vote are looking more like clowns Either way though, it's amazing to think that for those people who consider themselves slightly better off financially, being humiliated daily by a clown (who is also likely a traitor) is less important to them.
