I think the worry about white noise has to be more on Trump's side, to be honest - Reagen Jan 9, 08:25 27
- I wish I was convinced of this. I don't see yet see an end to his getting a complete pass on everything from his followers. It's like they are - pmb Jan 9, 08:33 5
  - I'd bet on him being a two-term president at this point, but his followers are fickle. - ty97 Jan 9, 09:00 1
    - As long as he gives them their Supreme Court justices who will get rid of abortion and same sex marriage, they will be happy. -- nm - jnine Jan 9, 09:05

  - Your IM is key. "his PR machine is frighteningly efficient with its bullshit." -- nm - JaxSean Jan 9, 08:35 1
    - He knows what he's selling, and he knows who's buying. -- nm - znufrii Jan 9, 08:37
- Emphasis on "white" or "noise"? -- nm - TWuG Jan 9, 08:30
- I wonder about that. - Mel Profit Jan 9, 08:29 16
  - They've continually voted people into Congress who have done nothing for them but cut their spending on education and infrastructure and not create - jnine Jan 9, 08:58
  - "someone" - Spawn Jan 9, 08:35
  - I do think there's a timeline horizon where that stops working - ty97 Jan 9, 08:33 13
    - Don't delude yourself. They're spectacularly delusional and deplorable. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 9, 08:37 12
      - But they want him b/c they want for themselves. If they don't think he's delivered, the love affair is over - ty97 Jan 9, 08:39 11
        
        At Christmas, my dad was talking about how the infrastructure plan would help the economy. I had to explain it was tax credits for profitable works. - jnine Jan 9, 09:03
        
        I think you're 95% wrong. They wanted him because he was the "outsider non-politician who's going to shake up DC" - JaxSean Jan 9, 08:43 3
        
        (My 5% I'm with you is that they think he'll do more for blue-collar jobs than Hillary would have.) - JaxSean Jan 9, 08:54
        
        I agree with this, and with spawn's message below. -- nm - groiny Jan 9, 08:47
        
        Yeah, they did not care how awful he was/is so long as he is not *them*. -- nm - Spawn Jan 9, 08:45
        
        They'll just blame Democrats for preventing them from getting what Trump offered. -- nm - Max Jan 9, 08:42

        I agree with the "loathe to admit they were wrong", and on top of that I'm not convinced that they will be able to tell that he hasn't delivered. The - pmb Jan 9, 08:50
        
        We don't have to peel off everyone. Elections are decided on 2-4% of the populace now. -- nm - Reagen Jan 9, 08:48 2
        
        This is also a good point. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 9, 08:54
