I don't think Trump is out of touch with reality. The reality is that many Americans want exactly what Trump represents -- and they got it! The Dems are the ones who are out of touch with reality -- that's why they lost the election for Pres.

That explains the farmers who are now crying because Trump got rid of the Infrastructure bill and now they lost funding, yet they voted for him, the state of Kentucky who lost money from their bourbon industry thanks to Trump, etc etc. His approval has taken a nose dive. Sometimes ya gotta be careful what you ask for. Price of groceries fixed yet? Keep guzzling that kool aid, Dik.

Don't know what kool aid, you're referring to. It's been clear to me for many years that Trump is nothing but a charlatan whose every sentence contains at least 1 lie. That's why I voted straight Blue and supported Blue candidates across the country. But it's also very clear that Trump is exactly what some people want and that Dems are out of touch with better than half the American public. If I misconstrued your "guzzling" comment, so sorry!

It was the last sentence that led me to believe you were a Trump supporter. For that, I apologize. Seems to me that there is a mindless indoctrination going on with the new GOP. No matter what Trump says or does, maga goes along with it. I don't think the Dems are out of touch with reality. They just don't fall for Trump's lies and misinformation.

I see. No, I am not a Trump supporter. Never have been. Recognized he is a vile person 30+ years ago when he first came to my attention.

However, I am also not giving someone a pass because they are Dems (= not "guzzling" the Dem Kool-Aid either). Ex: if you watched the warm-fuzzy YouTubes MTN et al. put out before the election, you could be forgiven for having thought there is no way Trump could win. "His base is leaving his rallies, he's having sex with a microphone, he's deranged" -- all true, yet that didn't matter to his base. I'm sure those predictions were based in large part on Dems being out of touch with the reality of Trump's lasting appeal AND what most concerns everyday Americans. And that mind set had disastrous consequences: people didn't bother to vote because they were told Trump was no longer electable.

Agreed. I am a moderate, somewhere in the middle. I am one of the MI swing voters that everyone hates. I don't agree with the Dems on all points, but the GOP has completely gone off the rails. At this point, I will continue to vote Dem until the Trump stain is gone. If it ever is.

Dems are to the only party on the side of the people, and we hold our leaders accountable #resignSchumer #resignDurbin if you are not leading you are in the way.
