I believe the dem crossover to Mr Trump will be epic. The other day I stopped at the grocery store to on my way to work. Who was clogging the line? That’s right folks a 35ish Spanish speaking man using a payment method combo that included an EBT card. His ensemble was complimented by expensive looking sneakers, gold chains and a stunning watch.
Realizing that everyone was ticked I blurted that nonsense like this was as good a reason as any to vote for Trump. One man said he was already voting for him and a lady said that the wall couldn’t get built fast enough. And I live in an county where dems outnumber pubbies 2 to 1.
Thanks,nikos!

Checking in early before man work around the house.
Been working insane hours this week, so I haven’t had the chance to watch any rallies.
Question for those that have kept up this week. Have the malcontent protesters been less of a problem as of late? Or has the media simply tired of showing the same crew of nutcases day after day?
Now that's funny--thanks for the belly laugh!
