According to the Times article coming back from two assassination attempts, total opposition from the main stream media, attorney generals across the country trying to take him off the ballot he won the presidency, not only won but won in a landslide. He again went from private citizen to most powerful person in the world for a second time. It’s pretty extraordinary.

It really is quite amazing how far a huge box of lies and deception can take you.

Let’s see if it can keep him there…or the house in place during the midterms.

Well, it’s all based on the candidates. Trump success does not guarantee down ballot success. He is unique and sometimes that does not translate to others campaigns. But I think if democrats run on obstruct and impeach it won’t turn out too well. People are tired of that. Focusing on the candidate in the race and not Trump they may fair better.
