After that convention, the number had risen to 45%. Donald Trump was viewed favorably by 32% before the Republican convention. After that convention, his favorability was 31%.

I would vote for a convicted serial killer rather then vote for a rePUKEian ahole. Even if some one could find a mythic 'good' rePUKEian, he (because they hate women) would still be backed by the rePUKEian party so he would either get nothing 'good' done or be forced into bad coices by the party.
ReplyDeleteI agree! I have never voted for a Republican - and I never will!
