    For Trump to "lose his base" those who make it up have to be attracted to the left. There is no way in God's great green Earth that Trump's people are going to be attracted to the left. We fine them repugnant. Nor do we expect Trump to be perfect. We are pulling for him and we have a pretty good understanding of the forces who are against him. So, "Hang in there Donald, we are on your side!"

    I can prove it and Hillary lost the popular vote. 70 million Democrats voted for Obama in 2008. Less than 60 million voted for Hillary in 2016. That is sad. http://gossiponthis.com/2016/11/10/...-trump-because-millions-democrats-didnt-vote/

    You make a good point. That would be impeachment for treason. But we shouldn't underestimate his guilt in "high crimes and misdemeanors" Which boils down to abuse of power. I mean, he just gave a White House job to Kouchner. And he could be making tons of money in his businesses. We'll know soon enough.

    They'll call the evidence "fake news" and continue to bury their heads in the sand,

    Of course you don't. That was my point.

    No. I didn't. But maybe it is a relief for some Trump voters that they're going to go without eating only a couple of days a week. My point was that it affects Trump voters.

    Of course it isn't. It's great!

    No. I believe he hates all foreigners (except those who can make him money) and his campaign against aliens and terrorists is an excuse to hurt them.

    Change your mind??? What gave you the impression that I have the least bit of interest in changing your mind?

    I'm afraid you think too highly of yourself.

    Only two kinds of people support Trump: easy fools and sneaky wolves.

    I can only answer this with the age old adage, there maybe a limit to man's intelligence, but there is NO limit to his stupidity.

    If Trump sells out to the collective, he will lose all his support and suddenly find his enemies praising and defending him.

    However it was Obama who advised his clique supporters to " Get in
    their Face.If they bring a knife to the fight ... we bring a gun . "
    At least Trump has the guts to fight his own fight.
    Unlike the girly man { watch Obama tossing out the first pitch in MLB }.
    or Chicago Community Agitator USE Others to fight his battles.
    Like his IRS and DOJ. Or even NSA { spying on all americans }
    If Obama was anymore Unamerican I think even Snidely Whiplash
    would have inform the head umpire of throwing spitballs.

    To the underlined: Negative. He typed cutting meals on wheels..not abolishing or nothing about "completely"...You added that word, you are the mislead...and only to your self at that.

    If someone wrote "X President is cutting food stamps"..does that mean abolish or defund completely? No. Nice try, the OP is not misleading. Cutting means just that, in half, part, or how ever you use the word...You cannot cut something in whole, unless you add the word "off".

    Did you not say he was cutting meals on wheels? If you want us to listen to you then don't lie to us.

    Trump is not cutting meals on wheels. He is cutting funding to a program that helps meals on wheels or about 5,000 of its employees. There is a difference there. Meals on wheels is not even a federal program.

    What can Trump do to lose his base?

    Maybe appointing Hilary Clinton into his team but even then some of his supporters will say that it was a good decision to appoint someone with experience. 1984!

    That all depends on why each of his base members like him in the first place. Some support him because of how much he makes other people mad. For the spite voters, the only thing that could erode their support is if liberals started liking him.

    Maybe when, after four years, "The Wall" is a few miles of crumbling cement, the contractors either cheated out of their money or contractors who became wealthy with the taxes of Americans tucked in their banks......and still no "wall":.......but I doubt it, they'll still blame Democrat's and never hold Trump accountable for his words or actions.
