    Trump has endured more unethical and illegal attacks on his administration than any previous president

    Uh oh, I hit a nerve. You are confusing Dems pursuing the agenda of the majority with being obstructionists.

    If you want an example of obstructing the will of the majority look no further than past legislative sessions when Repubs blocked bills most Americans favored.

    I did not vote for the man and I do not like him. But I am better off today then at any time in the last decade. You say it is bad, but from my door step it has been nothing but positives. I am making more, my kids are getting an education, and we have no worries about where we will live. When is all the bad stuff supposed to happen? I mean it is not like I am well off or anything. No ivory towers or country clubs for me. But a solid living where my family can prosper in peace.

    Depending on who the Libertarians throw up I may end up voting for Trump because in the end when it is asked are you better off today then four years ago if things do not change then the answer will be a resounding yes.

    Well, we know Hilary broke the law with her server as shown in the FBI report. After two years investigation by Mueller, Mueller did not say Trump broke the law.

    Kind of what happens when your administration has the highest number of staff members fired or forced to resign because of ethics violations. Hell, Trump hired Omorosa and The Mooch ... nobody trusts Trump to do the right thing.

    #50.

    Laying out examples, in great detail, of illegality is may not be "saying" Trump broke the law for you.................but over 800 former federal prosecutors disagree.

    Allow me to suggest to you that while you may feel that way because of economic security you should be concerned about more than that. Most of your fellow Americans are. Among other things, they are worried about the mountain of debt Don is amassing to give you the temporary secure feeling you have. The feeling he is counting on to dupe you in to re-electing him. The one being charged to America's credit card.

    Murder rate by year has dropped considerably since the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's to the point where it is very close to the 1950's. Americans choose not to take the steps that would reduce murders further.

    As for raising a family as noted earlier the average family is substantially wealthier than it ever has been.

    As for pension plans those days are not coming back. Every time you go to Walmart or Target you're supporting the practice of importing cheaper goods from China. The market drives corporate behavior and the market has decided to buy cheap stuff from China.

    But at the end of the day as I said US household wealth is at its zenith.

    That's the greatest under statement since Trump doesn't always tell the truth.

    Just look at the two unqualified nitwits he floated to be appointed to the Fed as an example. Both withdrew their names to save themselves the embarrassment of a confirmation hearing. Very few competent people want to work for this admin and most of the ones who did have been drummed out.

    They were talking about Trumps in comparison to other administrations. Hilary was certainly part of one the other administrations when she broke the law with her server. By the your counting is wrong mathematically. You arbitrarily started with 40. Since you do not know whether the 40 was right or not and was most likely not correct, the correct way to show it would be "a plus 10" where "a" has an unknown value.

    Which administration did not increase our debt load? Which Democrat running has proposed a plan that would lower our debt and not increase it? I would love to look at their proposals.

    Not sure where you're getting your information from but it looks like the suicide rate is very similar to the 50s. Stats from 1950 to 2016 are here. The rate is only 0.3 per 100K higher than the 50s (not double as you claim) and the increases are small increments, hardly 'alarming' increases.

    Trump has had more "not good choices" than any other administration. He has had the highest number of staff members resign from ethics violations and has by far the highest turn over. The staff members who got the tax reform bill through Congress have all been either fired or have quit. And HE FRIGGIN HIRED Omorosa and THE MOOCH.

    And you have the gall to say, "Not all Trump appointments were good choices ...". Hell, dude - that's the understatement of the decade.

    GOP Senate majority isn’t even pretending to legislate

    https://thinkprogress.org/gop-senate-majority-isnt-even-pretending-to-legislate-e7b35d7c3521/

    Despite several campaign promises to change the way Congress legislates and get things done, the U.S. Senate, under the leadership of Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), has not had a recorded vote on a bill in more than a month.

    Instead, the Senate on Thursday was considering the nomination of Michael H. Park for a lifetime appointment to the be a federal judge. On Wednesday, it voted to confirm President Donald Trump’s nominees for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Export-Import Bank, and another circuit court judgeship.

    You still made his point.

    And you provided us with a wonderful illustration of how empty Trumpism really is.

    You didn't even bother to try and deny the facts. (which is a refreshing change after three years of listening to Trump's sheep made absurd excuses and repeat Trump lies).

    You, like all the rest of the Trump crowd, are reduced to cartoons and adolescent one liners.

    I guess that stuff works on your social media or on your AM right wing talk radio show.

    That's what happens when you play down to the level of your competition. Congrats! The Democrats have penciled themselves in for Homecoming opponent for the next 50 years.
