    Jon Meacham, presidential scholar, says President Trump is in office because "we have a climate of fear in the country" which he "took advantage of" over the course of the 2016 campaign. https://cbsn.ws/2IAHJZv pic.twitter.com/niW2lwfyDt

        I think Trump won because many voters are disgusted with partisan politics & thought he'd change that. What transpired is a >dissappointment

        What has transpired was very foreseeable. What we need are more educated voters.

        But wouldn’t it help if more voters were educated to fight the sham parts of it? Encouraged to vote on long term objectives, for the good of the country, not themselves?

        😂😂😂😂😂 No offense, but are you young? Voters are MOST motivated when they can suppress the freedom of others. People who want others to be free don't need to vote because real freedom doesn't require law! The #1 motivator to vote is FEAR! A la Trump & conservatives!

        That is true for GOP voters, but not for Dem or independents. More muck keeps rational voters at home. Let’s require some history and economic standards.

        No, there are nutty Dems and indies too... MANY of them! Lol Homeowners, people over 45, and religious people vote! They have a vested interest: taxes, social security, and legislated morality!!!

        How do we make the rest of our citizens realize that they too, have a vested interest in voting?

        Yeah and fear comes from ignorance, so what's that say about our society.

        This is true. I feared Hillary Clinton when I voted.

        Tell me about the "climate of fear" fostered by the gun-control left when school shootings are down from the 1990s.

        "school shootings are down from the 1990's" The lies y'all tell are shameless. Don't even argue w/out providing statistics instead of talking points.

        That's a talking points website. If you don't have any statistical evidence, just say so.

        There are a number of primary sources in the item. Best bet would be to go on and read it.

        That's so sad you can't even back up your own argument. Maybe you should stay quiet until you know what you're talking about? Yeah, you really should b/c you look really silly right now.

        So you're telling me to learn something that you don't even know? That's weird.
