Many polls have Hillary and Trump neck and neck. Talking heads point out examples like McCain leading in polls in 2008 around the same point in the election and Romney being very popular - both were beaten miserably though. Nonetheless, they do admit that Trump has defied precedent and made many critics and reporters look like idiots by proving them wrong. He is doing things that have never been done before.
Johnny, I can tell you I did like two of Obama's policies:
1) Obamacare - yes, it's an extremely expensive system, the doctors and hospitals hate it, coverage has gone up astronomically, and there is definitely better options. Nonetheless, Obamacare allowed my mother to have health insurance for the first time in I don't know how long (10, 15 years - maybe more?) simply due to pre-existing conditions. She feels that the $500 a month bill she receives is a Godsend. She is finally able to take care of her body and do tests and procedures she otherwise wouldn't of been able to afford without insurance - colonoscopy, stomach surgery (removal of polyps), etc. Again though, I do feel that there are better options. To me it really doesn't matter one way or another because although I am healthy, I work out regularly, and I eat only the best food (I never eat ground beef for example, drink soda, or potato chips) I still refuse to work for a company that won't provide me with good health insurance - just in case... Also, I believe Obamacare forced companies that employ above a certain amount of people to offer health insurance to their employees. Yes, many corporations try to go around this by hiring more part time people and contractors - but nonetheless it gave people insurance to people who would otherwise be unable to afford it - or even unable to purchase it due to preexisting conditions
2) The Iran deal - I am a fan of just about any program that puts Israel on its toes. The fact that the IAEA has inspected Iran's facilities more than ANY other country in the world shows that Iran is complying with international guidelines. Nonetheless, the Zio controlled media and Zio controlled dems and reps both push for sanctions on Iran, dismantling their nuclear program - which again has been inspected more than any other country, and just general hawkish rhetoric towards Iran. Saudi Arabia has hurt the US far more than Iran ever did - yet we consider the Saudis our friends and allies and Iran the 'axis of evil' because the Zionist lobby dictates US foreign policy and Zionist media tells us what to think. The fact is Israel has a nuclear weapons program - everyone knows that. Yet, Israel has NEVER allowed inspectors inside its nuclear facilities. So again, Iran - inspected more than any other country in the world (questionable nuclear program - facilities were found to be for peaceful purposes according to inspectors) VS Israel - never inspected despite clearly having a nuclear weapons program. Another example of why the Zionist government of Israel and it's lobbies in the US are the most hypocritical, arrogant, deceitful and manipulative bunch of scum bags in the modern civilized western world.
Trump isn't perfect - I won't lie. Nonetheless, I totally support him because it really takes a business man to run this country. When Trump says that our politicians don't read much of the bills and trade deals they sign - it's totally true. After 9/11, Bush passed a bunch of bills like the patriot act which no one really bothered to read and stressed the urgency of passing this ASAP. Since that time period, the presidency has learned that it can pass bills as it pleases without anyone reading it and if there is opposition, then Obama just uses executive orders. Trump actually understands how deals work and is a deal maker. I mean even his book is titled 'Art of the Deal.' This is the kind of person we need. Hillary criticizes Trump by saying 'everything's negotiable with Trump' - well, the truth is we don't even bother to negotiate much anymore. We're a bunch of wimps. That why countries, lobbyists, and bankers take so much advantage of politicians and in turn the citizenry. They're a bunch of spineless weakling - there are very, very few politicians that actually fight for what is right and fight for the citizens. However, they're a minority - and they get voted out by the majority of spineless politicians. Even among these few brave politicians - even fewer will criticize Israel. One particular person I remember is a black politician from I believe Alabama - he criticized a Zionist policy in a lucid, thoughtful arguement, and his career has never since recovered.
Hillary's slogan is 'Fighting For Us' which is true - if you're a welfare king and queen living off the government for generations, an illegal immigrant, the 1%-2% of LGBT population, the 47% that doesn't pay federal income tax, socialists/communists, or a coddled college student/graduate who blames capitalism for why he or she still lives with their parents and claims that they can't get a good job (How about instead of marching with BLM, you fill out a couple of job applications instead).
The truth, if you're a proud hard working, tax paying citizen - then it's Trump who's fighting for you.
