The Rust belt gave him the victory. If he lost Penn, Wisconsin, and Michigan, Clinton would be President right now. If he lost Ohio and PA, the election would have gone to Clinton as well.
Trump fears Biden the most, because he’s a rust belt kid, and connects to blue collar workers. Trump losing support of the fire fighters made him go into a twitter rage.
Winning re-election will be a tough task for him. Being so unpopular means that he can really only get at most 45-48% of the vote. Polls have shown that 55% of the country will not vote for him.
Kennedy shouldn’t count. The media at the time didn’t get into personal politics with him. If he were president today the media would have a field day with all his indiscretions.
Plus, getting assassinated helped with his post presidential popularity. In a good way for most.
You just choose to see the worst in what they’ve done.
Case in point. Choice. Choice such as who a person can and cant marry. Choice like whether a person wants to keep a fetus or not. The list goes on.
I could list hundreds of examples of this and others, I wont because it wont make any difference to do so.
Both sides see what their representatives do as mostly morally right through their own bias, and vice versa. Only the stubbornly ignorant typically insist they dont.
How exactly am I forcing to accept those choices. Who a person can and can’t marry. That isn’t your choice., If a woman chooses not to carry a baby. That isn’t your choice. You don’t have to accept it, its not your choice. But you’d have no problem taking away someone elses choice to do what they want.
Married tax breaks are a function of the 14th amendment.
PA laws also fall into that category.
As for morality. You morality is not affected by what others choose to do. If two gay men decide to get married you don’t go to hell because they did.
I mean if you want to go down that path, one could say the 2nd amendment is forced morality. What about those who don’t think owning firearms is morally right?
You say population centers, but you seem to discount that land percentage ownership isn’t the metric by which laws in this country operate. If 90% of rural area decides that murder should be okay, do you think the 10% that live in Urban areas who make up a majority of the population should be subject to that?
As we have for several years now I try to understand your point of view, but on issues such as previously discussed that just doesn’t jive with reality. Absolutely no one is forcing you to believe that same sex marriage is morally right, nor abortion, nor any other issue that you don’t have a personal say in. The fact that it can legally happen has no bearing on what you choose to do personally and morally in your own choices.
your example of “choice” is not. You are forcing me to accept your choice. You are forcing us to accept your morality.
