Trump won the popular vote in the primary by a landslide with 12 million more votes than the runner-up (Hailey.) We sent a message to the delegates, and they listened.

In contrast, the DNC didn't give a flying one about who you wanted for nominee, and they didn't even bother to ask you.

I'm satisfied with Trump's VP pick. That's another funny thing about Democrats; the nominee doesn't even pick his own running mate; the world's elite decides for them, then after they get elected, the world's elite decides everything else for them too.

Neither of us can prove it one way or the other, but a Democrat hiding from his responsibilities sounds like a familiar story.

That would probably be a big deal if I were running for office.

Well said.
