1. We just reached an incredible milestone. Trump’s approval rating (35%) is now the lowest, at this point in his term, of any President since statistically-valid polls started.



2. Trump’s true base are primarily under-educated whites males, rural folks being left behind in the technology revolution, and evangelicals. If you support Trump and are not in one of those go ups, statistically you are an anomaly.



3. The amazing swing to the political right will, historically speaking, cause an equal reaction by swinging back to the left. You can actually make a lot of money at this if you take the emotions out of it.



4. With almost every major issue of importance to the average American ( gun control, abortion, immigration, Foreign policy, security, climate change, Russians interfering with the election, etc.), the public opinion is at great odds with the current GOP agenda. BS you say? Look it all up on PollingReport.com.



5. It does not take a PhD in Political Science to figure out that the GOP, Trump, Bannon and their followers are gathering into a circular firing squad.



I do not mean to hurt anyone’s feelings. Please forgive me.
