    Well, you should because there's recent history to show that they matter. Like WPG pointed out earlier, Obama wasn't popular in 2010 and Republicans won in a historic landslide in the midterms. Trump is much more unpopular than Obama was then.

    Also, I don't know where everyone gets this idea that polls showed Clinton winning a landslide. The night before the election, polls had her 4 percentage points ahead, almost unanimously. That's not a "landslide" lead. FiveThirtyEight published an article the week of the election explaining that Trump was only a standard polling error away from winning the election which is EXACTLY what happened. Like, why are you making s--- up? Lol

    Just do some research lol. All before the election everywhere was reporting that Hillary would win. I think even Fox news was. Why are you making s--- up acting like most people anticipated trump to win?

    Again - I would like to point out that I don't like Trump (anymore, and I haven't for a while).

    We need to refine our political system. Everyone is corrupt and there hasn't been a decent politician in years. Glen Johnson or whatever his name is was an idiot but the most civilized out of them all last year

    No, impeachment is the House's responsibility... Removal is the Senate's responsibility... You can be impeached without being removed... That's what has happened twice.

    Now you're changing your argument lol. You went from "polls showed trump losing in a landslide" to "polls showed trump losing." I know polls showed trump losing -- I said that in my last post. What you and a lot conservatives keep throwing out there is that polls had him "losing in a land slide" when they most certainly did not lol. I even linked you to a 538 article published before Election Day explaining how a Trump win wouldn't be improbable. You need to stop reading headlines and reacting to them and actually read the articles themselves lol.

    70-30 sounds about right. A 30% chance of winning is not nothing. To put that in perspective, the Cavs had less of chance last year in the finals when they were down 3-1 and they won. The Cubs had less of a chance of winning the World Series last year when they were down 3-1 and they did. This is all probability; what's likely to happen, does not always happen.

    There is no huge annocement lol it's conspiracy theory b.s. Hannity has connections to Trump and his administration. He's peddling this to take away the media spotlight from the Trump/Russia investigation. Even employees @ Fox News have said they're "disgusted" that hannity keeps trying to push a debunked conspiracy theory.

    You do realize that the clintons have been proven over and over again terrible people

    Bet you didnt believe the monica situation. Or Benghazi. They were just "theories."

    And you act like CNN isnt tied to the DNC. And they didnt skew the debate questions. No one in the media is covering this so why would it be taking away from another fake news story. All Fox, CNN, MSNBC, etc. fake. Every one is lmao and you cannot honestly deny that

    Have you ever thought about the 13 American Embassy attacks that killed 60 Americans during the 8 years before the Obama Administration?

    I was 3 years old when the Monica scandal came out. Everyone knows about Benghazi. What's bs is the far-right using a terrorist attack for political gain and trying to tarnish Clinton's image by throwing her under the bus. Like res said, I don't remember republicans losing their s--- during embassy attacks during the bush administration. Do you?

    Because that's the whole narrative hannity and all your conspiracy buddies are pushing. That all this Russia/trump investigation that's being reported is "fake news" to cover up the Seth Rich story. I realize it's easy to call everything that's reported that doesn't align with your political beliefs "fake" but this is reality. You can't just label all major news outlets "fake" and believe only what you want. That's called ignorance.
