Will realization ever dawn on them?

[question everything]

From a letter in the Minneapolis StarTribune:

I recently spent seven days in Mexico. As you might expect, the Spanish-language version of CNN had its share of reports on President Trump, the wall, immigration crackdowns, etc. A prominent story circulating centered on an influential member of their congress who had introduced a bill to require Mexican companies that currently buy corn from the U.S. to start buying only from Brazil and Argentina. I understand that Minnesota farms currently send many billions of dollars worth of corn to Mexico. I also understand that Minnesota’s farming regions voted heavily for Trump. It would be a cruel irony if the state’s farm economy tanks as a result of the actions of a president so many farmers saw as an answer to their problems.

And will all the other voters in the rust belt and coal mining places will realize that, no, Donny cannot and will not "bring back their jobs?"

One can only hope.

and, at best, replaced with the Republican's junk policies, well ... the howling and wailing across America will be tremendous - bigly

2. They have a simplistic world view & don't understand, or refuse to see, the world's complexities. nt
