The everyday Americans who turned out in record numbers to vote for Donald Trump last November are busy people. We are the taxpayers, the small business owners, the manual laborers and the professionals who subsidize the unproductive and the parasitic in this country. President Trump calls us ‘the forgotten people’, and the label is apt. The coastal elites of America had long ceased to notice that we exist, except when establishment Republicans needed another two years in Washington. All that has now changed.
What everyday Americans had looked forward to was the end of that bitter presidential campaign so we could get on with the business of making America great again. Sadly, that was not to be. The liberal establishment is making sure that the bitterness, division and hostility of the election carry forward into President Trump’s first term.
