I feel the same way. My daughter watched a Trump add today and said in a tearful voice "I voted for him... He used to scare me when I was a kid" (talking about The Apprentice.
I think it sums up many of our "choice" at the polls. I certainly didn't want to vote for him, I felt I had no choice, especially since Gary Johnson was polling at next to 0 (I think the Libertarian party showed us why the Pauls left them).
All that said, I no longer feel that Trump has no chance, I'm actually starting to think there is a slim possibility of him pulling this off. |

If he does, it's because of "massive voter fraud"  |

Give it a rest. You don't have to be unlikable every day, you know?
You might be voting for Trump in the end, but you are still a NeverTrumper at heart. Part of the the NeverTrumper dogma is to deny voter fraud so they can say,"You see? We should have picked Jeb" or something like that. If James O'Keefe's videos do not convince you, then nothing will. Drudge has something almost daily on this topic. We have a DOJ who protects criminal politicians instead of sending them to jail. And you don't think these people would stage a coup? Ah, but again, the NeverTrumper mental disease. I'm proud to have backed TRump since Rand Paul dropped out. I was never against him. There is no other candidate hat could havd withstood the attacks. Herman Caine, Sarah Palin, ll very nice and qualified. But they could not stand the assault of lies. Trump has.

very slim. The polls have already started bouncing back to Hillary. Hillary's attack ads showing all the crazy stuff Trump has said are coming back to haunt him. She has about 100X the money he does and even in Texas I'm seeing them over and over (100% about how bad he is, nothing about what she could do, but negativity wins) I can't imagine how bad it must be in North Carolina or New Hampshire where it matters most. Unless the FBI actually makes its case in the next few days, I don't see him winning. Its going to be 1996-2000 all over again, daily scandal after scandal.

I've said it since the 2012 election, if she ran, she'd win. I do not (and I swallow hard typing this) see ANY conservative candidate (not that Trump is) winning POTUS perhaps ever again. I think we in the church underestimate how "left" the unchurched American really is. As more and more detract from moral absolutes, it will be increasingly harder to garner support for a conservative who claims faith of any kind, takes a stand for traditional marriage, against the legalization of drugs, and/or is anti-abortion.

Agree for the reasons listed. BUT I am still hoping Trump Wins, because I ain't a HIllary type guy!

Good post. But I do not see there being too many unchurched people as the problem. IMO the problem is the churched people not understanding the Constitution and how to fight for our rights.

How could the unchurched be the problem when if all of the "churched" voted pro life we'd get pro life politicians in the majority of government positions? The problem is a backslidden church in my opinion, and don't read more into that than what I'm saying . Pro life politicians appointed the majority of the sitting judges who refused to overturn Roe vs Wade the last time it came up for consideration. It's all a confusing mess. |

You're correct. A major part of the debauchery of this day is a lukewarm church. Those who sit in pews and "amen" the pastor, but don't confirm the Word with their lives. Add their number to the number of unbelievers, and we are totally outnumbered.

Michigan and Pennsylvania made it happen. Pretty amazing. Lots of factors in this perfect storm of an election. I think my number one factor is the anti-Hillary vote. So many people in my circles talked about not being happy with Trump but had to vote against Hillary. The media underestimated the pro-life/anti-abortion vote.
There were Bernie Sanders fans who were ticked at Hillary and the Dems as well. It all came together and I am shocked. Even if you were pro Trump, you have to admit being surprised. Only a couple of you called it. |

To the only person on this forum who steadily defended the fact that Trump would win, who wavered once or twice. YOu were RIGHT RS. and I am also pretty satisfied, Hillary did not win.
I can't wait for some of the folk who declared they would move OUT of the USA to pack their clothes.
You were right RS

I think Trump doubled the black vote from Romney - he got 8% (Romney only got 4%)
Agree with Eddie - Hillary was a horrible candidate.
As bad as Trump was - Hillary was worse. How could Dems put her up to it?
Biden, Gore, Michelle Obama would have won easily.

So, Trump's opponents got more than 90% of the black vote? So more blacks voted for a black candidate, Obama, than a white candidate, Clinton? Is this supposed to be an accomplishment on Trump's part? |

| I am hopeful that Obamacare will be repealed and taxes will be lowered. I also hope that the IRS can be eliminated with some sort of simple Fair or Flat tax program. But, he has to hurry because history tells us that we will lose the Senate and/or the House in 2 years. |

And, if pressed, I might could come up with some more. Like, he might be open to influence from some advisers who know what they're doing since he doesn't seem to have a clue.
He probably won't get us into a war with Russia since he seems to like Putin so well.
