... in the last 40 years, despite three different Republican administrations,...universities have eroded, the borders have evaporated, the government has grown, the debt has soared, the red–blue divide has intensified, identity politics have become surreal, the nation’s infrastructure has crumbled, the undeniable benefits from globalism have increasingly blessed mostly an entrenched elite,... purchasing power and quality of life either stagnate or decline.

What's 'odd' to those of us in flyover is how the supposedly elite Republicans never saw what was happening to the country...never saw the list above... UNTIL we realized their 'blindness' was caused by the fact they personally were benefiting from the same forces that were destroying the country. They CHOOSE not to see... they choose NOT to act.

Trump ran against corrupt elites... of both parties... he saw their greed - the greed many of us sensed, but mistakenly thought was only on the dem side.
