Maybe we should just elect Trump president

(on a slightly more serious note: Freakonomics Radio: How Much Does the President Really Matter? - download the podcast or read the transcript.  summary: the prez is probably less powerful than you think.  and: if anyone is looking for an interesting podcast to subscribe to, you could do much worse than Freakonomics)

This is why every person who cast a ballot for Bernie Sanders is a complete idiot. The President doesn't just change laws/shut down banks by fiat.

Its like the sun doesn't come out and you have somebody working for Trump saying "Its sunny!!! LOOK UP!!!"

trump supporters don't care what he says.  they aren't listening.  after a year of this, trump and his stooges have internalized this.  why bother telling the truth, or even making sense, if no one cares?  haters gonna hate so no need to cater to them either.

Smacks, you're a Notre Dame guy: you have any defense of this!?

I prefer what he drank yesterday to what he said today...perhaps they go hand in hand.
