Its also important to note that after Trump was elected, the numbers of Republicans and Independents remained fairly steady BUT there was an exchange in the 5% range of R’s moving to I because they didn’t like Trump and I’s moving to R because they liked Trump. This helps explain why Trum support is so overwhelming among Republicans – the party’s membership has aligned to Trump and his political approach.
…in spite of every force known to man working against him.
I don’t think you understand how political polling works.
The sample isn’t stratified by self-identified party affiliation. That would defeat the purpose.
When a poll says that it included 48% “Democrats”, it means 48% of the respondents (a random sample of the population) said they were Democrats.
That is part of the progress and probably needed done. The new sections are underway though it remains to be seen how much is done by election time.
Paul_Thomson: H_Arendt:And Trump was so sincere that Mueller documented twelve instances of obstruction of justice.
False. He documented evidence that could point to obstruction, but was not solid enough to prove obstruction beyond reasonable doubt.
A quibble. Trump has pursued the truth in these matters with the same degree of sincerity that OJ Simpson showed in finding out who murdered his wife.
We know OJ is vigorously pursuing the real killer and will search every golf course in the world if that’s what it takes!

That’s why dems want the grand jury testimony that they will ultimately get. Then well known for sure
Optrader:He is building the wall, he has gotten Mexico to put 27,000 troops on the border, which has greatly reduced drugs and illegals from crossing our border, he has gotten NATO members to pay their share of defense, he has gotten tax payers a sizable tax refund, he has gotten two young, Constitutional, pro life nominees on the supreme Court, he has renegotiated new trade deals with Canada and Mexico and China, and gotten better deals for America, just today I heard that China has agreed to more of Trump’s trade demands, he has called out sanctuary City leadership, he has taken a pro life stance, he has built up and properly funded our depleted military, he has provided more healthcare options for veterans who have been limited to VA hospitals, he has cut off money to countries that hate us and have been using US tax money to fund terrorism against us, he had gotten many manufacturing jobs back, brought the unemployment rate to it’s lowest in decades, especially for blacks and Latinos, he got drilling approved in ANWR, he has gotten job killing and massively expensive regulations rolled back and repealed, he got hostages released and bodies held for 70 years returned from North Korea… All these things that Republicans and conservatives have wanted the presidents they voted for to do and never got. In less than three years. His bombastic blustering and narcissistic personality may be seen as negatives, but I think those are the qualities that enabled him to accomplish these things…
About 70 miles of new border wall has been built since Trump became President. Yesterday, a Federal Judge correctly ruled that Trump’s National Emergency declaration to build more border wall was unlawful. Link
The Unemployment rate was down to 4.7% when Trump became President. There were more created during Obama’s last 32 months than during Trump’s first 32 months.
Obama’s last 32 months - 7.13 million jobs
Trump’s first 32 months – 6.15 million jobs
Once the country is at near full employment, how can created jobs continue to increase? At some point things will level off and the unemployment rate will remain stable too.
Zero.
But I’m sure trump will proclaim Mexico will pay for the wall during his 2020 bid and the The Red Hat Mob will be duped again into believing it.
Zero.

Already past zero, and by winning back the house and weeding out more Rino’s in 2020, he’ll get much more done and set the stage for Pence in 2024!
A big part of why so many of them lost their seats in 2018.

They weren’t trump enough lol

As if house Democrats, who can’t even ask their own coherent questions of witnesses, will discover within the same material incriminating evidence that thirteen angry partisan Democrat lawyers couldn’t find after sifting through it over two years.

Ever heard of legal immigration: something Trump and other patriots love.

With more jobs created during Obama’s last 32 months than during Trump’s first 32 months, Trump getting “job killing and massively expensive regulations rolled back and repealed” didn’t increase job growth.

The Republicans are not going to win back the House in 2020.
They didn’t keep the promises they ran on to get elected and sandbagged Trump’s platform so many of the Trump core voters sat out 2018.
Simple economics, the closer you get to “full employment” the fewer new jobs can be created without some serious economic changes.
Not only has UE continued to drop but more and more people who left the job market completely have come back into it and found jobs or started businesses themselves.

He couldn’t bring charges against a sitting president. Doesnt mean it wasnt there.
Trump’s performance and behaviour in the first two years and movements such as March for our Lives driving the increased enrolment and vote of the younger demographic is a more reasonable explanation for the Republicans losing their majority in the House of Reps in the 2018 midterms.
None of which can be shown to have had an effect on the election.
