made about in advance of November 2016. I remember when people here were cheering Trump on, so certain the if he was the candidate it would be an easy road for the Democratic candidate to the White House. My spouse was in that camp - and everytime she said something about hoping Trump would win the primary I tried to impress on her the real possiblity that he could win the presidency. She even talked about the possiblity of requesting a Republican primary ballot to help ensure he won the primary - and I'm willing to bet there are DU members who did that, thinking it would help us win the White House in the general election.

Guess we haven't learned. Encouraging Bannon's agenda now is like hoping Trump would win the Republican primary.
