Trump's Lost Grasp

So desperate for attention
He foments vote-count dissension

   Every day a new twist or turn
   Nero fiddles, while Rome burns

There will always be the lovers or the haters to each President, I believe he may even be back next election, he just has to drop that huge arrogant ego he has and the guy could actually be ok . . . : )

Now, now. He accomplished some good things. Just admit that you can't stand his personality. (I can't either). But he did a lot of good for the economy, for the Middle East, and for minorities --- that's right for minorities, and that's why he did much better than Romney or McCain ever did with minorities... Let's see how Joe Biden stands up to the heat and the hate that the media will inevitable bring...

Richard Nixon sure did, but I think that this Mr. Trump's last hurrah. He hasn't exactly endeared the GOP toward him. I don't think they'll take him back. :)
