  1. What failures? From what I see his success far out weighs his failures. What has Obama done? He became a politician and ran with it.

  2. Every president sees this. The honeymoon period is over. Trump was just more blunt on it. Obama reacted by blaming the republicans over and over again until the republicans won the House and he realized that people do not support him.

  3. I know. Trump is blunt. Look at all presidents in the past. They start out energetic and young looking and leave beaten and gray. Obama did. Obama expressed his shock by blaming republicans at the beginning.

  4. This happens to every president. Notice that those who take the job in the past are young and energetic an leave beaten and gray? They come in thinking it will be really easy because they do have an ego and have either 1. Previous success or 2. Have been given everything In Obama's case he was given everything. When he became president republicans did not support him and all he did was blame republicans. That is how Obama reacted. Trump is just more blunt about it. Trump has a history of success.

  5. "Obama busted his ass to get where he did" What did he do? All he did was become a community organizer and an adjunct professor (BTW, I can be a professor as well). Obama was purely political. Trump has had a lot of success.

  6. " the man was given millions as loan from his father" Yes, a loan that he profited from in the end. Many college students are cry about their loans which are not even in the 6 figures. " and inherited a successful company and huge inheritance from his father" And he continued to be successful. Just because you inherit something does not mean you will continue to be successful.

  7. Daniel, profit loss is huge. A company can't just raise the debt ceiling like the government does, or raise their revenue with higher taxes. It is much harder to run a business as there is way more accountability. Look at Congress, low approval rating high retention rate. So much for accountability.

  8. blackearl7891, the fact is that you are jealous. Was Trump born in a better situation then some? Yes. But so was Peyton and Eli Manning through pure genetic. Do you want to break their legs to hold them back or try to discredit their success in any way? Fact is that in the end Trump had to do the work to build on what he was given. He could have went broke like a lot of 2nd generation rich families do. http://time.com/money/3925308/rich-families-lose-wealth/ And having your college paid off does have its drawbacks as one becomes entitled. Trump kept his head straight though and built on his family's success.

  9. Most 18-30 year olds have no clue what the real world is like. That is why so many have always voted democrat in the past and later switch to republican in the future.

  10. Look at exit polls. Older people lean right. You will too when you grow up.

  11. You "study" looked mainly at approval ratings and just presidential elections. There are other offices as well. Fact is that the older you are the more conservative you become. The reason why is because you become more aware of the system you have to deal with. There is a reason why democrats usually get the votes of the 1. Young 2. poor 3. uneducated (no high school diploma) 4. Those with a PhD (in this case they become so pigeonhole in their field they become ignorant in others, I know from experience being a PhD candidate myself) When you break down the arguments from both sides you see that the right typically has data and analysis on their side and the left has appeal to emotions. Now that is not to say that emotions cannot be used in an argument (Roe v. Wade is an example) or that their arguments are irrelevant. But due to the core of their arguments they will attract people who are less likely to think with logic and problem solving but instead go off of emotions. Again, not necessarily bad, but the young make up a large portion of that. The older individuals are more mature and have experience. They understand the taxes they pay and what little they get from them. They understand business regulations and laws they have to deal with. They see that and thus lean right. "I can come up with at least one alternative hypothesis as to why older people were more conservative this election than others. One possibility is that people hold onto the same ideology that was popular when they were younger which matches the majority of the older generation currently." And that is something I agree with as well. People do not like to change. There have been psychological studies done on this as well in how people do not like to leave their comfort zone which can be a bad thing at times. Again, I am not saying that this trend is good or bad, but instead the reality. When you get older, buy a home, have kids then you will become more conservative.
