The people have spoken and they don't like the direction the country is headed in so the establishment must be corrected once more if they fall astray like Clinton ... Obama and Clinton along with the rest of the democrats should've done a better job of maintaining the confidence in the status quo ... It's not hard to see why people transferred their stocks from the democrats to someone like Trump ... |
Trump is only in office because of political affirmative action, a system that kneecaps California and New York in favor of Wyoming and North Dakota. More people voted for Clinton, and the majority in the Senate is razor thin. Trump does not exactly have a mandate. The silent majority is anything but.
If Trump fails to make Democrats happy, he's likely to find himself in the same position in 2018 as Obama was in 2010: with an opposition-majority Congress that will cock-block him at every step of the way. And then he's going to have problems himself in 2020. Obama at least won the popular vote both types by acceptable margins.
As my RDC at Great Lakes once said,"Stand. The fuck. By."
