Lots of wall talk, stopping the immigrants at the border, split families, etc. Yet, the POTUS has a good number of Latins supporting him. Also, with all the media and Hollywood and other popular figures fighting Trump, they barely change things. Who’s out of sync, I ask?

The biggest mid-term loss by the ruling party since the election following the Watergate scandal. The American people are very unhappy with Trump and the Republicans.

Even with the Dems still in the minority in the Senate, they actually got millions more votes for their candidates than did the GOPers. Such is American politics; the will of the majority is not heard, unless it is overwhelming.

We really don't know the will of the majority since most pollsters are leftists and over-sample liberals; garbage in, garbage out. Another unknown is how many non-citizens vote and are allowed to vote, and as generally observed "it's no big secret in California".

Take the case of Florida where Dem lawyers are objecting to non-citizen votes not being counted, blatantly and shamelessly. Take the case of Broward county, where elections officials are clearly biased, manufacturing votes or invalidating ballots not favorable to their camp, in accordance with the Marxist mantra *the end justifies the mean".

A liberal ➞ leftist agenda has been a cancer in America for ½ a century or more. No secret. It’s intersting how with all the leftist media and ultra-liberal Hollywood, so much of America is still by and large conservative. Too much intellectual talk without depth of mind. It’s no wonder people like Americans but not the US government where it's money parlance. No heart. I dont say what out POTUS today is all correct but I do believe he’s a product of a tired nation being unbalanced by money and all its corruption; something many in those high, well-paid positions may themselves cringe at.
