Just because 2 million people voted for something doesn't make it a good idea. Winning elections certainly doesn't prove that you're right. That's why Republicans get elected so much.

It won't be enough for the GE. Look at where her votes are and tell me how we are going to elect her. We will have a foreign born First Lady and the congress will finally allow for a new SCOTUS member.

The GOP party wont work with Trump anymore than they would work with Hillary.

He's not one of them either.

15. The "establishment" certainly has its problems, but look what it has also done and DOES:

Over the years the "establishment" has provided:

Social Security
Medicare
The EPA and Clean Air and Water Laws
Civil Rights Laws
Infrastructure Development
Education Funding
Small and Medium Business Development
The Affordable Care Act
The Economic Stimulus Act Saving Us from the Second Great Depression
The Auto Bailout Saving the American Auto Industry Which is Now Thriving

And MUCH more. Sure, we need significant campaign finance reform. No one is disputing that. But simply trashing "the establishment" is also shortsighted. It's not that simple.
