I agree completely.

BOTH PARTIES. Everyone in politics, is sold out to globalism.

Trump is out front, opposing that. I believe it is why he won the election.

This will be a very big issue, in the political arena, in American politics in the future.

China is walking away from us, globally, and every single person in politics, in selling us out.

Except Trump.

I sure hope, he is going to lead increasingly, to more leaders who are for America for a change.

It is EXACTLY why Trump won, and its also why he is attacked and/or discretely undermined by people on both sides of the aisle.

Trump’s vocal opposition to open borders, and the bogus “free trade” dogma of the Globalists, are why he finally flipped the upper midwest (rust belt) states. Had the Republican party taken the stands that Trump did decades ago, the “blue wall” would have begun to turn red in 2000 at the latest.

The realignment of the upper midwest was long long long overdue. This part of the country, by and large, is just as conservative as anywhere in the south, with the sole exception of their attitude toward unions because of its past industrialization. Since that has been decimated there really hasn’t been anything holding these people to the D’s other than historical inertia.... and the fact the Republicans offered them absolutely no reason to switch... the Democrats marched further and further off the cliff into nutter land, not only taking their votes for granted, but also advocating things they found morally reprehensible and attacked them directly as evil... so rather than switching parties they simply disengaged.

Trump finally gave them a reason to switch, and they re-engaged and were willing to cross the rubicon and vote for someone who was not a Democrat.

If you think people in upper midwest agree with the crap the Democrat party has been up to for the last 20 years, you are ill informed. They have just had to have a reason to overcome their historical biases and become engaged.

Trump gave it to them... Called it from the start, Trump would win, and win it right through the upper mid west/rust belt.

Hillary did better than I thought she would, honestly.. only getting 100k less votes than Obama did in 12... but Trump got 2 Million more votes than Romney...

I also firmly believe without the access hollywood mountain out of molehill crud, Trump would have likely taken another 5 or more states, and gotten another 1-2 Million votes.
