The left and media (but I repeat myself) have been promoting cognitive dissonance all year long - telling people at every turn that Trump is an idiot, failure, hater, incompetent, etc ad nauseum. That is contrary to the reality that people experience every day - they know Trump is being successful, getting things done, loves people of all kinds, and is very smart. They can keep the cognitive dissonance bottled up for a while but ultimately one set of beliefs has to overcome the other to eliminate the stress, and there’s no more powerful form of persuasion than money in the pocket, which is what this tax deal is going to do.

As Scott Adams predicted, within the first year Trump will have gone from “He’s Hitler” to “OK he’s competent but I still don’t like him”. Right on schedule.

Well said, and ‘right on schedule’ nails it.

The changes for the better this year are numerous in my view because undoing damage that has taken place over a number of years is not easy nor is it going to happen fast.

Everything he and his administration have accomplished has been fought tooth and nail by Democrats, to the Rats by-partisanship is their way or the highway.

As more people start to realize what’s happening for the good, hopefully it’ll become a little easier.
