People who have ignored politics and were too lazy to vote are getting their wake up call.
The Trump voters who didn't like Trump but thought he might bring jobs back are peeling away as it becomes clear that Trump doesn't know what he is doing and can't really "negotiate" trade deals with world leaders. They realize their vote for jobs only turned over their Medicare and Social Security to Ryan and the "establishment" Republican budget cutters.
The hard line Trumpsters come on talk shows and insist they have proof five million illegals voted for Hillary, and Trump has their back.
The military and intelligence services are agog at the Commander in chief's inability to vet internet information--the guy who could send them into battle.
Even a segment of the Fox News audience is beginning to grasp the folly of "anyone but Hillary." Right wing radio becomes ever shriller in defense of Trump's lies, as Fox begins to divide over how to cover an incompetent president with a dysfunctional personality.
Really no reason to be depressed about all this, XXLT. If you are not in foreign service or the military overseas, and if you don't live on the border with Mexico, and you are not covered by Obamacare, then grab a beer, sit back, and watch as over the next few months millions of angry Americans demand their country back.
Trump will not serve 4 years.
America's track record since Vietnam for demanding change is not good. Hope you are right though...
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
