    As I have repeatedly stated nationally they are down. They are up a little in one region, overall though down..

    We are averaging about 500 a month now, in 2011 we were averaging 700

    He raised my income with tax cut legislation.

    He has never talked about raising taxes.

    I know the crazy judges on left-wing courts have been doing all they could possibly do to never Trump, just like Colbert and Kimmel and Fallon.

    Think I'll vote for Trump again. I'd hand-to-hand-combat fight my way into the polls if I have to.

    I don't think farmers are monolithic in their support of Trump. He hurts them and then flings money at them. That's NOT a solution.

    Hell a power hungry organization that named themselves Courageous Conservatives raised quite a bit of money to attempt to overthrow the republican convention and take the nomination away from Trump, having absolute disregard for all the voters in the primaries who chose Trump. It doesn't get any worse than that for we the people.

    In 2011 the country was reeling from the Great Recession that President Obama turned around.

    Another Republican Financial nightmare................ now Trump is adding a Trillion dollars to the debt

    It looks as though people have made up their minds about Trump. Nothing he says or does moves the needle.

    How is the above strategy going to sway people to your point of view?

    Democrats are like a used car salesman selling a pinto and when the customer says they don't like it they say ya you don't like it cause your an idiot..... Maybe just maybe instead of time and again ignoring these people or insulting them listen to what they want and adjust your policies accordingly
