Sheeez, couldn’t agree with you more.
Trump supporters mostly are a passive bunch, law abiding and shy on confrontation beyond our keyboard, as in face to face. Many are 110. Ha!
What we have ducked out on, for many decades, is our fault and a scandal. Our ranks are thin, but somehow Trump turned some votes in 3 union states to get him those precious few electoral votes to defeat the enemy for four short years, God willing.
I fear Trump won those union states with a “cargo cult” message. He was going to reopen their closed factories, which is akin to promising island natives that the sky birds are going to come back and deliver unlimited quantities of cigarettes and chocolate.
Neither one of those things is going to happen.
He can deliver jobs and a productive economy based on cheap domestically produced energy, and all of his policies are geared toward that. But they will be new jobs with new skills.
None of those union workers signed on to bring to heel the Federal Leviathan. For them, it begins and ends with jobs.
