You failed at the poll.
It’s niave to think anyone can do anything about Trump.
Systems rigged, he was put in place, elections are pacifiers for the weak minded.

The poll posted the way I intended to, so mission accomplished.

Also, I tend to think that elections have actual power, or else people wouldn't put such huge amounts of money into campaigns. Not that some hackers in Moscow couldn't nudge it one way or another under the right circumstances.

If people don't sometimes have the power to change things, then what happened to the USSR? No one could have seen that coming just a few years earlier.

There was no poll when I posted.
It showed on main page but not in Austin forum.

Looked fine to me, and 12 people have voted on it. Maybe it was your browser or a plug-in.

I’m pretty sure my browser is fine as well as my os.
Probably an Eccie glitch, those never happen here on this well run site.

A few people had voted when you first posted, 12 on your second post, and now it's 16. You're probably right that it was a glitch on the server, especially if it magically started working for you later and you didn't change anything on your PC.
When can I vote for him again?
Right there with you!!!!

"So, how do the two presidents measure up in terms of growth in major indexes, measured between their inauguration and May 31 of their third year in office?

The short answer is that Trump has quite a way to go. Under Obama, the S&P 500 grew by 56.4%. The Dow Jones Industrials Average was up 50.6% and the Nasdaq, 92.9%.

The numbers under Trump were 21.4% for the S&P 500, 25.2% for the Dow, and 34.2% for Nasdaq."
