    Not necessarily

    View it from the millennials postion, they look around and see a deteriorating infrastructure, huge deficts/debts, a failing health system, major income inequality, childhood poverty, failing environment, etc., all which they will inherit and bought to them by Boomer politics, is it any wonder Bernie's rhetoric of change appeals to them beyond emotions?

    You left out family values, once a banner for conservatism; concern over deficits and debt, which we were told was a core conservative principle; judicial restraint, again, a consistent theme of Republican thought; weak Federal Gov't/Executive power, supposedly central to right thinking; and others of lesser extent
    I'm not getting into the weeds on deregulation but plenty of it was anti-growth under the guise of environmentalism. Repealing that is traditional Republican policy. It's not unique to Trump. Trump has given lip service to debt and deficits while doing nothing about them. Reagan actually tried to do something but short of that Trump fits into traditional Republican role on it when in office.. As far judicial restraint how are judges Trump is appointing any different than prior Republican Presidents? I mentioned character already. Did you read what I wrote?

    There's 320 million people in the U.S. and maybe 400 billionaires. Saying the economy is for the billionaires is about appealing to emotion. I'll give you just one example. Are all the boomers who prevent new development and cause the price of housing to rise to unafforable amounts all billionaires? No they are not.

    He profited from his silence after the rigging of the primaries by the DNC in 2016.

    A new lakefront, 600K home, his third?

    He will probably get another one this year.

    Feb 13, 2020 - Sixty-one percent of Americans believe they are better off today with President Donald Trump than they were at the end of Barack Obama’s presidency, a newly-released Gallup poll shows. ... 52% say it’s easier “to go and buy things in the stores than it was three years ago.”

    Here's another poll that will send the left into conniptions:

    Wow; people aren't as stupid as the Democratic Party of the Jackass think they are.

    As opposed to you getting yours from Maddow, Mathews or Tapper?

    You're such a dumb, pathetic leftist troll.

    Another illiterate, grammatically challenged pile of word salad. You should go back to Middle School to be re-indoctrinated.

    “A CNN poll revealed that most Americans believe President Trump will win reelection in 2020.”

    ‘A CNN report says the poll, conducted by SSRS, finds 54 percent of people think that the president will win reelection, while 41 percent don’t think so.”

    Landslide?

    “The new poll suggests that Trump’s push for 2020 is gathering momentum. According to CNN‘s results in December, 51 percent of respondents predicted Trump would lose in 2020.”

    It's great news. The Party of the Jackass is engaged in an internal civil war with the leftist loons taking over their party and Trump is continuing to win and make America great again.

    The peril of the right is they do not see this is another case of voting for change. The people are not happy with what we have become and what we are becoming. It is getting worse for the people and better for the wealthy.
    Obama, a black man,.was elected because hie promised change from Bush's Republican mess. Remember hope and change? But he had to deal with the Republican messes and did not get us moving to the helping the people enough. he did get the ACA in place. That was a huge accomplishment.
    Then Trump said he would change it all, tear it down and rebuild it. He failed to mention it was for the benefit of the wealthy. He is destructive and taking us back to the Robber Barron days. Most people see that.
    Bernie has spent a lifetime working for the people. His change would be real. If enough people understand it, they will flee daffy. He is not just a crook, but a bad one.Trump is not working for you at all.
    America will vote for change again and trump will flee.
