Since leaving office, the support for Donald Trump from his base is even stronger, a Politico reporter discovered after a trip outside the Beltway.

Evangelist Franklin Graham, a noted supporter of the former president, hopes Washington is paying attention.

"Here's a Washington reporter who went to Wyoming and was surprised at the 'huge disconnect between Washington and the rest of the country,'" Graham wrote on Facebook. "I think she is right. She shared the observation that former President Trump has actually gained—not lost—political clout since leaving office. When it comes to the impeachment, it does nothing for the American people, it only continues to fuel more disunity.

"I hope the leaders in Washington pay attention to this reporter, because the disconnect is there—it’s true all over the country, not just in Wyoming," said Graham, the CEO and president of both Samaritan's Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association.

I’ve heard this before, after Trump won in 2016. So the east coast media elites have learned nothing.

By the morning of the 9th of November 2016 I thought that message had already been properly hammered home. Interesting to see people getting perplexed by this in 2021. Just goes to show the massive disconnect Libs still suffer from, and it will bite them hard in the mid-terms.

It appears our nation has reached the point of irreconcilable differences. Two separate realities and opposing views of the purpose and authorities of government.

Occupy Capitol Hill is being spun by the media and anti-Trump fanatics (and I include both Vichy Republicans like McConnell and Cheney and Democrats in their number) as the storming of the Bastille. Who are we supposed to believe - the foaming-at-the-mouth fanatics spinning this overwrought narrative, or our lying eyes, which saw Animal House antics by unarmed demonstrators being depicted as a coup attempt?

It goes to show how out of touch with reality the MSM is.

Why should they know or care since all that matters is the bubble inside the Beltway of Corruption and Manhattan.

You’re right but it’s not that simple. Look at Georgia. Suppose the state declares independence. Would Atlanta consent being under the rule l government of the red state Georgia?

They don't realize that we are family. President Trump is the leader of that family, 80 million strong. You mess with one member of the family and you mess with all of us.

Franklin Graham is a man of God and one that has his finger on the pulse of what is going on.

There are no easy or painless ways to fix this and the divide is even found within many states.

We are no longer “one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all” are we?

People don’t like stolen elections and then being told nothing happened because, not even being allowed to present the evidence in court, the servile 5th Column media claims there’s is then no evidence.

But I’m sure the ChiComs are happy with their man in office.
