Trump will walk out to give his prime time speech tonight with his approval ratings low and sinking fast! The world will be watching and if he blows it tonight his presidency will be mortally wounded. My guess is he is so intent on dividing the country and making Putin happy it will be impossible for him to succeed and his presidency will be in a death spiral!

It really comes down to would you rather be on the side of Robin Hood or the sheriff of Nottingham.
I believe the large majority of Americans if they understand this difference would vote democrat, humans by nature are liberal, only when they become greedy and self absorbed do they turn conservative. Originally Posted by StandinStraight

Those same poor people who voted for Obama twice are still just as poor in 2017 as they were in 2008. I consider myself within the middle class. I have no expectations of any change in my current economic status because of the will of a politician. Politicians on all levels are pitchman. They can't win elections by catering to the wealthy alone, not enough of them to go around. They need to sell themselves and their program of change to the average person who can vote for them. The final analysis is they need poor, frustrated, unemployed people to sell themselves too. If everyone was wealthy and content they wouldn't have any power. So with that said don't expect big changes in people's live from political people. They aren't in the business of making people's lives better. They are in the business of making people think they'll make their lives better. Politics is the biggest show earth, that's all it is.
