I keep hearing this crap about how Hillary Clinton actually won, and how President Trump will be impeached. Trump won because what he said and did on the campaign trail resonated with voters. It was really hard to get to like what Hillary said and did. When you go into West Virginia and tell those folks you are going to shut down the coal industry, you either are not the smartest person in the room or you have a death wish. That was just one example. She put all her eggs into the states she won, but ignored the rest of the country. She figured she had it won. Her friends in the mainstream media told her so, as did most of the elete types who regularly vote for liberal causes.

Trump won because he ran the better campaign. In the end, more voters coudn't swallow what the Clintons are, and what they and democrats stand for. Oh, sure. She won the popular vote. That is irrelevant. Her margin was run up in two states. We elect presidents via the electoral college system as outlined in the constitution. To change that requires a constitutional amendment, to which 3/4 of the states would have to agree. Good luck with that one.

At some point, it would be nice to see the democratic party veer away from their strategy of being the new party of "NO." I suspect that will not happen. They are clinging to a faint hope that, like Oscar Madison's spaghetti, something from this Russian crap will stick to the wall. Good luck with that one, too. It might be nice to see some compromise on their part that did not (by their definition of compromise) involve us conservatives giving up and doing everything their way. And they want to blame a government shutdown on conservatives? As Dirty Harry would say, "Go ahead. Make my day." Maybe what they fear most is that we might find out we can get along just fine without all that bureaucracy and could do quite fine without a whole lot of it.

Bring it on.
