Last month, Illinois U.S. Senate candidate Juliana Stratton (the state's progressive lieutenant governor) ran an ad with a not-so-subtle message regarding our president: "F--- Trump." Stratton herself doesn't say this, but she lets multiple other people say it for her. The crude campaign stunt got me thinking: Is this really what Democratic voters want? (That primary election is March 17, as I write this, so it's TBD if her messaging worked.) There's a growing disconnect in America. As our political parties move further to their respective extremes, most voters fall somewhere in between. Whether Republican or Democrat, the majority of Americans simply want what's best for their families and for their country. The Democratic Party is having an especially hard time connecting with its constituents, as witnessed by a steady stream of polls showing just how bad off it is.

What about the polling CorkyDaBigot?
Slaughter the source all you want, but the content of the poll is her focus, and you really don't seem to have any thoughts on that.
RE:
I'll use this opportunity to ask if people think US intelligence failed so badly that Trump was serious when he recently said in response to a question about Iran attacking neighboring states that "They weren't supposed to go after all these other countries in the Middle East. Nobody expected that. We were shocked."
Isn't that all the US intelligence does is fail? But to the point, if a country wanted TheBOMB, it should at least behave like a sane country when using missiles. What Iran did is make it clear that if it had the bomb, it would use it in a spastic "kill'em all" sort of way.
If you don't think US intelligence failed at that level then why did Trump make such a statement? Was he simply lying to try to avoid blame? Is he of such diminished capacity that he doesn't remember being told that such attacks were an expected reaction from Iran? Some other reason?
Did you think Iran would attack its neighbors? I don't recall you saying they would. It would be reasonable for Iran to attack US/Israel military installations around the globe, and in Israel and the US. I don't believe anyone thought Iran would send drones to kill civilians indiscriminately in neighboring countries, did you?
Did you hear about the 400 people killed yesterday? Why do you think we haven't?
