Another facet of Trump's America: A million news stories about polls showing the majority of Americans hate Trumpian policies, officials, candidates, etc.
And none of them will matter. First, because these are polls and not elections. And second, because simple majorities alone are not sufficient to influence policy in America anymore.
Also, who are they out here polling? I've never been polled about shit. I got a lot of opinions for these mfers but somehow they never come around asking me about it. About anything.
What American jobs is he protecting? We DON’T HAVE ANY manufacturing in the US to speak of anymore. At best we assemble stuff here that is made for n China. Except for car companies, what true industry is left?

And how much of that will find its way into his personal funds? So many big donations from big companies already - he's going to milk this for all the money he can.
"Gets"
Fun fact: it doesn't matter.
