but that they are disastrously wrong. 51 million people wrong.


I understand full wall that some people are looking at the "deplorable" and thinking that they are going to get exactly what they voted for. However, as satisfying as that thought is keep in mind that we are in that same boat. Between now and 2018, and yes the next presidential election, and yes every local election by the dogcatcher on up,, we are going to have to convince these people that Trump screwed them. Do not try to use logic like you just walked off MSNBC, make it personal, "you went out on a limb for Don and he screwed you! You went on a limb for Trump and he gave his Wall Street buddies a tax cut."
