Poll: Americans want Democrats to work with Trump

[DFW]

12. Don't overlook the key phrase

52 percent of Democrats polled say they should cooperate with him on areas of agreement . One more time: ON AREAS OF AGREEMENT.

Fine. Find some and there's something to talk about.

Did Jonathan Easley of "The Hill" also mention in his article that a majority of Americans wanted the Republicans to give Merrick Garland a fair confirmation hearing for the Supreme Court, too? Did they suffer in the polls last November because of it? (in case you're not sure, here's a hint: NO) The Republicans said a big "FUCK YOU" to that, all polls notwithstanding. I think that should be our response to McTurtle, Pence, Ryan and Trump, too--on judges, on the environment, on the budget, on fucking everything. Ninety thousand votes from the rust belt may override the wishes of three million other Americans in the Electoral College, but not elsewhere. If they want to drink lead and mercury in Wisconsin, Michigan, West Virginia, Kentucky and Pennsylvania, and then receive no health care when they get cancer, let them. The rest of the country shouldn't need to suffer because of it, and at least half of the people in those states don't deserve that fate either.

I don't care HOW much we may look like carpets to them. I am through being walked on like one. It hasn't helped us in ONE election since 2008, polls or no polls. It's time we took that into account, and it's time our elected representatives acted accordingly.
