Last Refuge opines:
...In the aggregate the MAGA movement, like the Tea Party that preceded it, was neither Democrat nor Republican. A person only needed to look at the issue(s) of borders, immigration, illegal aliens, H1B’s etc., to notice the outcome was the same with the D or R. The same was true for American jobs and the insufferable march to a ‘service driven economy.’ The movement that supports Donald Trump was never Democrat or Republican; it was/is a coalition of historically unrepresented voters, essentially a third party.
Trump’s supporters represent a third party in a two-party system. This was always problematic. Professional Democrats, leftists writ large, hate Donald Trump. The Professionally Republican also dislike him immensely....
Allow me to highlight the real problem here:
A person only needed to look at the issue(s) of borders, immigration, illegal aliens, H1B’s etc., to notice the outcome was the same with the D or R.
Yup. Clinton and both Bush 1 & 2 sucked. Obama REALLY sucked.
And--in Term 2--Trump sucked, too. Why? Because he forgot who elected him.
And because he thought that he elected himself.
Here's a somewhat more vitriolic take.
Trump is bonfire of the vanities writ large
