Are you a Trump Chump? Do you honestly believe that Trump cares about the working class and the middle class? Do you think that Great Again really means Great Again for the wealthiest individuals and corporations? Do you think that Trump has a better idea for healthcare or do you think that there are a lot of nervous people wondering if they will still have healthcare? Do you believe that Trump will protect Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid or do you believe that Paul Ryan will try to raise the age on Medicare and have it privatized? Do you believe that our environment is about to take a big hit or do you believe that Trump wants us to have clean air and clean water? What do you believe?

I am definitely not a chump. I did not vote for him either. He is a moron. A maniac and a self centered a-hole. She could care less about anyone in this country. Especially why working class and the women and the immigrants. This country is doomed now. Medicare and medicaid will be cut without a doubt now. And Social Security will be cut as well. That is going to hurt lots of people in this country. The rich will get richer and the poor will be homeless.

No to all those but as people keep telling me the American people have spoken. That does not mean I have to like it. The left is also to blame because they kept telling us who we had to vote for instead of who they should have voted for.

Hillary and the Democrats needed to have run a better campaign. Where have I heard that before? They needed to emphasize the GOP's plans on Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. They needed to warn the American people about the GOP's sorry record on the environment and how most do not believe that humans are the leading cause of Global Warming. There is much that needed to be done. Now we are going to suffer from Trump and the GOP. It will not be pleasant.

@crossbones27 Bernie will not run. He will be too old. Elizabeth will be over 70 in 2020. She would be popular. There may be other compelling choices. The Democrats need someone who is progressive and offers a real alternative to Trump and the GOP. I believe we are in for some disastrous years.

@zebra2222 Agreed, and the amazing thing was Hilary was to Corrupt and so America in its infinite wisdom went with someone more corrupt. Bernie please run in 2020 just in case my prediction of Trump is wrong or even Elizabeth Warren.

Obama wanted to increase infrastructure spending, but was stopped by the Republicans. What makes you think that the Republicans will have a change of heart?

@Susan2015 Hate crimes will occur much more often because of Trump's past reckless rhetoric. His cabinet positions will enlist the extreme of the extreme. The benefactors will be big business, big finance, big oil. We will be the big losers.

@zebra2222 Obama divided people and set groups against each other.

I know that Donald Trump said anything to get elected. If he does do what he says he wants to do with the wall in Mexico then I will quit writing Wordgirl fan fictions. Supergirl are you ready to be fan fictioned by me?

Did you believe that Clinton truly cared about all those things? You can pile on Trump and vice versa can be done on Clinton. BTW, thanks to Obamacare I have no health insurance so that's not a good example. Yes, you are unhappy and now you know how many folks have felt the last eight years. Do you wish a one party rule country that allows no opinion contrary to yours?

Obamacare was flawed. I am not going to deny that. However, the GOP never had a plan to help the uninsured. The GOP never had a plan to keep people on insurance if they had a pre-existing illness. The GOP never tried to reform or make changes regarding the Affordable Care Act. They fought against a Public Option. The GOP has fought against Pharmaceutical reforms to reign in high prices. And remember, before Obamacare, there were millions of people who were without insurance. Many went to emergency. This was taxing hospitals. The healthcare costs kept on rising back then and the GOP had no viable plan in place. I can understand how you feel, but I think things will get a lot worse before they get better.

@zebra2222 Let's hope things will get better. I don't care who makes things better. Obamacare is a subject for endless debate and argument and the bottom line is our opinion depends on how we are individually affected. At this point, Obamacare shouldn't be repealed but seriously overhauled. For starters, a huge point of anger for us who disagree with you was that penalty enforced by the IRS. And from the stats from your Obama administration, there are just about as many uninsured now as before and the point was we were promised healthcare for all meaning 100%.

Sometimes it's hard decide which one should run America. What promises did Donald make? How is
he going to make America great. Both candidates are eloquent speakers and tremendously talented.

Trump is a con man. He is a cheat. He is a liar. He is a bigot and sociopath. He is ignorant about domestic and foreign policies. America is now going to face the full wrath of the GOP. The Democratics in the Senate are going to have to fight like hell to keep Trump and the GOP from fulfilling their goals.
