The Republican part is dead on arrival. This is the Trump party now. Paul ryan even admitted in his suck up speech the party had missed the deep discontent of the average American worker. The only way they could have missed it was to close their ears to millions of Americans loosing their jobs to other countries  for the last 25 years. The Party can not admit the Reagan "Trickle Down" experiment and the trade deals have been disastrous for most Americans and very beneficial for rich Americans and multi-national corporations who hide their profits overseas. The Democratic party did no better. They lost for the same reasons even though they ran a better campaign and spent way more money and had 1/2 the women's vote simply because she is a woman. The straight white male finally voted. Things are so bad they are willing to risk a Trump presidency. Now, in 2 years let us vote out every Dem and Repub.. Congressman along with 1/3 of the Senate. It is time to throw out the deaf SOBs
