    Oh the irony... No crap Obama, this has been going on for the last 8 years, hence the reason Trump was elected. His administration, and the DNC at large was immensely out of touch with the average American citizen!

    Concerning this gem; "some of the lowest voting rates of any advanced democracy." That is what you get when the DNC preordained one of the worst candidates in US history with no message other than vote for me because woman...

    Thoughts?

    The CIA, NSA, and other dark agencies are who are really governing us, and they're still doing the work of Obama and Hillary.

    there is no escape because of the sickness brought to this nation by the leftist secular media and a party that supported a total enemy of the state, obama and hillary. You are right... there is no escape... because we have plunged too far into darkness.

    FYI, Erasmus was a Catholic priest and friend and consultant of St. Thomas More. It would do you well to heed his advice instead of the DNC.

    Think for a moment how this statement applies to you especially. Don't exclude yourself from his statement by scurrying down the partizan rabbit hole.

    Coming from the side that watched Russia meddle in our election and collectively said "Meh... we got what we wanted."

    I don't think for a moment. I have been thinking about that for 40 years.
    That is why I go to confession every month... I am neither stupid nor holy.

    Well clearly we are hypocrites because our Gubmint does it all the time! You don't think droning targets over the last decade and a half is MEDDLING in foreign affairs and attempting to sway political preference, Libby's are seriously void of reality :roflol::roflol::roflol:

    :D "Russia interfered in our elections!"

    Right-winger response: "So? We do it too so it's perfectly OK and we shouldn't try to do anything to mitigate the effects or ability of Russia to interfere with future elections. After all, Putin is a great and glorious leader; a real beacon to democracy."

    Oh how the right-wing has fallen...

    Trump wants to give huge tax cuts to corps, destroy health care, or he will shutdown government, sad....

    Trump wants to shut down national parks, sad!

    Trump would rather give corps tax cuts then help the military and the people of this country, sad!

    I think Obama wouldn't know his own ass from a burnt biscuit if he looked at them both at the same time.

    Oh sure, you can do something about Russia. You turn America into the old USSR. You shut down the internet, and only give the info our gov't wants you to have through MSM. Other than that what can you do?

    Yet this supposed interference from Russia involved nothing more than revealing to the People, what was going on with the DNC and other things gleaned from Podesta emails. So, IF, Russia was the source wilkileaks used, there was not one lie involved, just the Truth. So the truth may have interfered. How horrible!! It is much better for LIES to prevail? For Truth should never influence people, LIES should? You know how ****ed up that is, right?

    The response you talk about is not a right wing response. It is the rational response. If Russia wants to reveal truth about a person or a party during an election, anyone with a brain should be grateful. The truth is more important than a party, or a candidate. So now, with dems, the truth is evil, horrible, corrupt? For that is the gist, the implications of your post. And that is unacceptable. When the US meddles it is using lies, and other nefarious means. Russia just showed us truth. It hurt the corrupt dems. That is not a bad thing.. We owe Russia a favor and our thanks. Yet Russia did not turn over those leaks to Assange. No evidence.

    Trump's approval rating is in the 30s.

    Congress' approval ratings are in the teens.

    The approval ratings for both parties hovers around 20%.

    It's A fair assertion to say there is a huge gap between how we are now governed and how we want to be governed.

    I'd say that more people need to get to the polling booths next time around.

    The Democrats need a candidate people can vote for first.

    Your just attempting to make yourself feel better is all, in some circles it's referred to as willful ignorance. You want to convince yourself that WAR isn't meant to influence current Government and the minds of the populous then you're pretty naïve to say the very least ;)

    Actually that's why you are only thinking 2020.......2018 is where it's at, focus. Trump will resign or be impeached before 2020.

    Agreed, but for Obama to state that when he was a big part of the problem is pretty ironic nonetheless.

    Totally agree with you. I will say this, Obama seemed very focused on the job, so much so, it was detrimental to the party that he was elected from. And, that may have been the importance or the job or his own hubris.........or both. So yes, Obama did damage the Democratic party unintentionally.

    Is there no gap between Trump and what the American people believe?
