[QUOTE="SueEllenRules!, post: 47413, member: 87"] And she was wrong? I can't think of 2 entitlement programs I'm less likely to see in my lifetime. I hate to say it, but she may very well be right. Unless a meteor hits the earth and somehow manages to wipe out the GOP. And I agree. Unfortunately, the vast majority of Republicans don't give a sh!t if anyone other than the rich can afford health care or a college education and they're determined to keep it that way. You mean millennials. Not that it did her any good since they failed to support her in the same numbers they did Obama. And they got the Trump presidency they apparently preferred instead. Well, let's see...for starters, how about the booming economy of the 90s? Or the budget surplus that Bush ultimately squandered? Or low unemployment? Or taking out Osama Bin Laden? Or a Supreme Court that has a liberal wing? Perhaps because they [I]barely[/I] managed to pass the bill as it was? And without a single Republican vote in the House or Senate. How lucky for the Democrats that you're so easy to please. You only ask that everything be [I]exactly[/I] the way you think it ought to be. Or else. I was wondering when the tirade against Hillary Clinton would begin. Again. Is a Trump presidency acceptable under any circumstance whatsoever? Hell no. I'm afraid you've got a long row to hoe. The Democrats [I]forced[/I] Republicans farther right? If you say so. Although, I'd characterize our choices as Hardcore Fascism or Moderate Democrat. And Hillary supposedly had a double digit lead over Trump for several weeks during the general election. But whatever. And yet, 35-40% of that demographic voted for Trump, with another 8-9% squandering their vote on third-party candidates, which did nothing but help elect a candidate whose policies couldn't be more different from their own. Let's leave the insane out of this. If Clinton or Obama walked on water, something tells me you'd criticize them for not being able to swim. I just hope that winning elections is somewhere on the list of priorities. Lofty values don't butter any biscuits. And worse yet, he's not a socialist. [/QUOTE]
