These voters have come to their senses and realized the travesty of what is going on - but how many who voted for Trump still haven't woken up - or even worse, are willfully stuck in denial, unwilling to admit that they made a colossal mistake in voting for him?

Otherwise, everything they've said was nothing more than bullshit.

When we get conned, especially by someone we trust, and have trusted, most of us get pissed. We have nothing to worry about from these people. They thought he was this, and the pukes are that. At the end, it is discussed how spineless the other republicans are. So it is double mad..
..Not just at Trump, but at republicans for not standing up to the liar. If most pukes had stood up to Trump, they wouldn't be voting for the Democratic Party. But they will, because they have been conned.
...These people have been lied to by their own party. Republicans stood for honesty and standing up for what is correct in these people's minds .But the truth is, all the republicans in the senate have stood with the liar, and his making fun of Ms Ford. Yes, a few say Trump was "inappropriate" but how many have totally stood against him? And said he was totally wrong and mean.

....Watch it again, that lady who was raped, do you think she will vote for the republicans after Trump mocked Ms Ford? She will never vote for them. She will either vote for us, or not vote. There is strong dislike for Trump in this, and these people who used to vote R, will not vote R this time. They will vote D or not vote at all.

these people will vote for us, or not vote at all. I will use another word. They are MAD at their party.
..this does not represent them..

Yes, this happened before with the Democrats. 1972 with George McGovern.. Democrats voted for pukes because they were mad. Very mad the way McGovern ran the campaign and how he stood out..(stood out for what they thought was "wrong"

..Trump stands out for mocking someone who is raped. Pretty bad...and it will be the same but this time for our side. Republicans will lose in ways they never expected. Trump is the.. "Puke Party" No one has stood up against him in a way that stands out.. So on election day, many who in the past voted for the Puke Party, will either not vote, or vote with us. We will find out in about 3 weeks.

millions of people who are mad at Trump. And most of these people will either not vote, perhaps that will be easier, or vote for us.

What I'm most afraid of is how many chances they'll give the next disastrous imposter to hit the stage with some new bigoted T-shirt gimmick.

Oh come on folks! Give him another chance, after giving the grifters a thousand ninety-nine other chances to pillage the U.S. Treasury.

This clip from CNN should be broadcast in all upcoming elections, not just this one. If you think voting-in someone who isn't qualified for office is a good idea, to shake things up, rewatch this!
