I think people are more in despair about how things are—yes new jobs but they are low wage jobs. HOUSING is a huge issue. Most people pay half of what they make to rent…

She's right. In fact, this is WHY the Republicans are the minority party. Their opposition to the social safety net means that they are willing to let a hundred million Americans go homeless and starve rather than have a system to provide for them.

That entire hundred million votes is permanently written off. There is no OTHER electorate that the Republicans can look to to replace the bottom half of the America.

Trump is the only Republican who gets this...which is why so many Republican leaders hate him.

Nah. Conservatives would rather give them jobs than make them an eternal dependent underclass on the government tit. Dems just lie, mislead or distort in public and tell the truth in private. It's called having a private and a public position.

Under President Obama, the economy has experienced a record 70 straight months of private-sector job growth. Over 14 million jobs!

No, Republicans would rather that they HAD jobs, but Republicans don't want to lift a finger to make that happen. The jobs are supposed to just exist, because the market is supposed to be efficient. It's not, and they don't, but Republicans have never been willing to think through that part. Democrats have, and people on the margins see the difference and vote for them on account of it. Republicans are really stubborn about it too, which does not bode well for their long term survival.

Democrats have created an underclass in the inner city ghetto projects who are dependent, like addicts, on government handouts. The government education they are provided is a disgrace.

Socialism is the answer only where living on the dole is an accepted way of life.

Go back before welfare, including Social Security and Medicare. What was that like? It was the Great Depression. There was starvation. That's the problem with refusing - and Republicans absolutely refuse - to accept the need for a systematic approach to poverty. In good times, poverty can perhaps be handled through private charity, but in bad times, poverty expands exponentially, the wolf is at everybody's door, and the rich, by themselves, neither have the resources nor the interest in keeping everybody alive, fed and sheltered. It's not their job.

The Left and the Center have turned to government to fill this gap, and government HAS filled the gap. There's nothing else to do it. Republicans have systematically refused, since the 1930s, to admit that on a philosophical level. They refuse to admit it. They refuse to ADDRESS it.

Consider the health insurance issue, that led to Obamacare. Obamacare sucks, but what did the Republicans offer to address the problem? NOTHING. They offered nothing. And in the face of a crying need, something, anything, is better than nothing - at least you're trying. Republicans have refused to try. They have set their faces against ANY sort of rational social welfare, and view it punitively. That is why they are the minority party, and always will be.

The difference in THIS election, which makes it unlike any other, is that THIS time the control of the Supreme Court will pass to the Democrats for the first time in 50 years - if Hillary wins. Truth is, it has been the conservatism of the Supreme Court that has held back the Democrats from charging ahead into all sorts of protected areas of the Right.

With 5 liberal Dems on the Supreme Court, things will change across the board faster than at any time since the "Switch in Time that Saved Nine" allowed FDR to implement the New Deal.

Republicans have not reconciled themselves even to the New Deal. They hold to a "Flat Earth" view of social welfare that will never win the day again (and that failed in the first place because it did not work in the crisis of the Depression).

Trump's appeal relies, in part, on the fact that he isn't a traditional Republican at all. His energized voter base is not the traditional GOP base.

Anyway, all of the Republicans had better hope Trump wins, because he is what is standing between them and political oblivion. They don't realize how dramatic and swift the changes will be when the Supreme Court works for Hillary Clinton.
