4…………> Beyond The Scandals: Trump Raising

Political scientists, encouraged by the off-year election triumphs of the Democrats in Virginia and Alabama, predict a “wave” election next November that could result in Democrats taking back the House and edging out a majority in the Senate, a development that can shift balance of power to Democrats in the House, making Trump vulnerable to a vote to impeach. 


Trump’s popularity continues at the lowest levels of any modern president, according to “Fake News Media” polls.

One thing everybody seem to be forgetting is that all those “paid to bark dogs” on the evening news were dancing on the streets in anticipation of Hillary Clinton victory, just to get size 15 boot in the face instead on election night.
