The Trump brand is here to stay for the next 8 years. If he gets this tax bill [which he will], President Trump will win re-election EASY. Like I said in another post, as long as there are record corporate profits each quarter with unemployment staying low, no one is going to care about the disparity between the rich and the poor as long as Americans have "more(?)" money they can spend.

Agreed. Trump doesn't have to pass any major legislation between now and 2020; as long as, economy continues to grow as it has been for 8 years and unemployment numbers stay in the 4% realm as it has the last 2 years then they'll taunt that as all Trump and all GOP.

MSgt (Join to see) - Is that based on single income or joint income households? I'll assume household is defined as joint; and it does make a difference, considering a household with one employed individual bringing in 6 figures vs. a household with multiple employed individuals combined bringing in less than $90K.
Nice to see them state household net worth rose by 3.6% between 2014 and 2016 which disputes the GOP argument that the economy was still bad under Obama. However, I would be more interested in seeing numbers for the other 90%; did it grow for them at same rate it did for the top 10%? That would be an interesting floor debate on the economy.

When is enough enough for what? Are you advocating for the over throw of the duly elected leader of the united states just because you do not agree with his policies? How about this. Wait a few years for the next election and vote against him. Maybe he will be reelected and maybe he won’t but let me tell you this most people I’ve found in middle america don’t care about half the crap that bothers you. We care about jobs and the economy. That is what we vote on. So, if the economy is good he will get reelected. If its bad he won’t. Its that simple.

SFC J Fullerton - Agreed. Real data. That poll data you shared is representation of less than 25K individuals from what environment. Hardly real data representation of the election involving over 127 million individuals.

MAJ James Woods - Any data derived from polls can be subjective, especially when its not in your favor. Unfortunately, exit polls is the only way to analyze election results. When properly complied over geographical and demographical expanses, it can and does provide a "snapshot", with a margin of error.

SFC J Fullerton - The election results is the best Exit Poll we have today. 127 million votes out of over 200 million registered voters. That's sufficient data to make any analysis that's better than a "snapshot" poll by random organization and with minimum margin of error.

Kurt, as usual, blowing smoke. Oh and stop calling me, Jimmy. Now I remember why I stopped engaging you; your inability to be professional and courteous.

PO1 Tony Holland To Trump all the Presidency is, is Just Another Marketing Tool. He is Incapable of True Leadership.

Really? What do you think marketing (also known as salesmanship), recruiting, and military leadership is? Simply put, it is - "the ability to influence behavior to get people to do things they would not otherwise do."

SSG Robert Webster - Do you think military leaders use influence on subordinates to get them to do things they wouldn't do otherwise? Who joins the military knowing they might be told to do something they wouldn't normally do and needs to be convinced and influenced to do so? Yes salesmen, businessmen, politicians but not the military.
