Trump getting elected, revealed just how far left, extreme, and off the rails the Democrat Party had evolved to over time. They also became VERY POWERFUL in a negative way, and the major prime-time media outlets becoming a propaganda machine of the left is all the proof you need.
Think for a second that if this were not true, and you didn't have the corrupt Democrats, Rhino's, and the extreme left driving the negative media propaganda message, and the media reported actual true and honest journalism on current events. How much differently would public view be towards Trump.
People hated Trump because the Democrats and Media told them to. American people are pretty stupid in that way. They are sheep being led.
So many times I've stressed to people to "stop judging the man on your coddled emotional feelings, and judge him on his merits, policy decisions and results". Yes, he could be a big mouth blow hard at times, but he could be tough as nails too, which is some of what America needs!
