The American people are tired of this. Trump has changed the
narrative on what it means to be "presidential." It's no longer about
being a stoic leader like Abraham Lincoln or a polished statesman like
Barack Obama. All those flowery words about hope and change went out the
door with the first black president.
A survey released last week by a Washington, D.C., polling firm of 20,000 registered voters from both parties shows the Democrats have failed to seize on Trump's unpopularity. About 36 percent of Democrats polled said their party makes too many compromises. And another 20 percent who identified less with the Democrats plan to support a presidential candidate from a different party in 2020.
Voters, whether they lean to the right or the left, are hungry for leaders who keep it real and will take the gloves off in a fight. They want populists who will push radical ideas, which is why Trump keeps fighting for his border wall. His base wants it and it guarantees him at least 35 percent of the vote in two years.
Democratic voters want politicians willing to do the same. That's why Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez went from bar-tending to legislating on Capitol Hill. Ocasio-Cortez won because she is not afraid to push ideas such as proposing a 70 percent marginal tax rate for anyone making more than $10 million. Polls show a majority of Americans, including conservatives, support this.
Note EU-Digest: It all depends on the Mueller report. If there is no direct indication there was collusion between Trump and the Russians, the scenario in the story by the Miami New Times could very well materialize. However, if Trump is accused in the Mueller report of collusion, by having had either direct links with the Russians, before, during, or after the elections, his "road to hell" will only begin in earnest.
