I think you could say that about a lot of states these days, unfortunately.

In SW Missouri where my wife's sister lives, they're on the second wave.

The Mexicans have been displaced (onto welfare) by African muslims.

BTW, it appears if you like someone other than a career professional politician your consider, “Obsessive”.

I seems to me American’s just wants some real leadership, and are tired of decade after decade of corrupt crappy leaders who make a living off government.

And most of those career politicians come out wealthy in the end, while America gets looted and beat.

Trump has tapped into a DEEP reservoir of disgust and anger.

He may have a lot of ideological issues vs. a conservative manifesto, but the guy has connected BIGTIME.

True. In this case, obsession is a good thing. Like the saying in Hollywood: The only thing worse than people talking about you, is people NOT talking about you.

I understand the good thing, and I support Trump at this point. But after many years of folks swooning over their favorite professional politician, literally worshiping them, it just became a bit much. Big turn off for me personally.

Fan is short for fanatic and if you’ve ever known an extremely obsessive person, you probably know what I mean.
