The United States has 536 billionaires in 2015. You tell me what the problem is.

I was looking at the election map from 2016 in the news the other day. Donald Trump won about 80-85% of the total area of the country by county. Only around 15% of the the counties had Hillary winning. This tells you the progressives control the big cities with large populations. The rest of the country rejects them.

He's not the only one the "fans" are star struck over. Obama had his star struck "teenage girls" as well.

But again, I don't think it's a bad as they want. No President is ever going to be universally loved like past ones were, but we're too polarized to ever have both parties respectful of the opposing candidate. I don't think the hatred for Trump is enough to overcome at this point.

BTW, you might want to check with the kid. One Direction broke up some time ago which she probably knows. Time to up your pop culture affairs knowledge, dad.

I know they broke up, but I didn't know whether this audience would get a Shawn Mendes reference. ;)

Collectively they own much more money than our annual Military budget. And at least one of them paid $750.00 in taxes.
In what world is a bunch of private individuals having more wealth than the military a problem?

Nothing if they pay the same percentages of taxes on it as average Americans. I'm happy for them. Sure you can argue they're just using the law and that's true. It's also true they own the people who made the the laws.

So instead of fixing it for everyone we need to break the system for everyone.

The polling in 2016 ended up being fairly accurate when looking at the popular vote and it was always pretty close. If memory serves me right, the close states that Trump narrowly won (Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania) were all within the margin of error with their polls. I think there were also more undecided voters at the end that went Trump's way. You also didn't see much excitement about voting for Hillary, so turnout wasn't particularly high. That's not to say that people are excited to vote for Biden, but there's plenty of motivation out there to vote against Trump and turnout is significantly higher. You could say that part of that comes from people excited to vote for Trump, but the high turnout in 2018 didn't go well for the GOP and that's the most recent example we have. It will be interesting to see how things turnout, but Biden does seem to be in a more enviable position than Trump. With less than two weeks to go and very few undecideds, I think things are pretty well set. Either the polls are right or they are wrong. Time will tell.
