The difference between the two may be the Country First group is not feeling that Trump is moving fast enough on his promises to build the wall, export illegals, etc.

This was expected. Many anti-Trumpers woke up and more each day are boarding the Trump Train.

Even liberal parts of my family are starting to comment ‘smart’ when it comes to Trump. Their movement toward the center is slow but it’s happening.

These guys are clueless, and clueless about their cluelessness.

Oh yeah, the Ann Coulter crowd where you realize they are to stupid understand the forces in motion.

Instead of blaming Trump for not building the wall with his bare hands and a cement mixer, why don't you work on campaigns to get a majority conservative congress to AUTHORIZE and FUND it?!

It's not why I voted for him.

I voted for him because he wasn't a simpering coward like the bulk of the Republican officeholders.

"The difference between the two may be the Country First group is not feeling that Trump is moving fast enough on his promises to build the wall, export illegals, etc."

I freely admit Trump was not my first choice and I was concerned that his deportment would hamper him and truthfully I wasn't sure that he wouldn't get bored and not take the office seriously. I was wrong he has in many ways channeled Andy Jackson and does pretty much what he believes is RIGHT and lets the cards fall where they may. GOOD for him and GOOD for America. But I agree that he hasn't moved fast enough on the border he should have by now give the job of border security over to the military the Corp of Engineers should be there with shovels and bulldozers and the wall should be well on its way. Troops from Europe should be back home and with the money to house and feed them going into our economy. He should be pushing pushing pushing that the border is a national security matter that makes it a Presidential matter and every one needs to butt OUT. Who knows how many hundreds of very bad people have already come across. If he was to push this aspect of the border who could stand in his way?

It’s more than that. Have you heard of the #Walkaway movement? It was started by a leftist GAY guy who is leaving the Democrap party to support Trump he got so fed up of the radical insanity. I couldn’t believe it, and every day it’s more and more people, even TRANNYS are leaving!! That’s incredible to me, of all people THEY are leaving? The Democrap party has reached a level of now being too radical for even them, so if gays and trannys are leaving imagine what the average democrat is doing as well. Check out their Facebook page, black people, even people with Mexican heritage are leaving. The Democrap party is TOAST..........

They are “highly critical of immigrants and deeply wary of U.S. global involvement,”

I am truly sick, I mean sick, of the Liberal highjacking of the word "immigrant". I am an immigrant, and up til now, I never had to justify that I am an American by having to stress legal immigrant. How many good words are we going to let the libs steal? Yes, I know, it's their Alinsky crap.

“I love being analyzed by my betters.”

Our so called elite is as slimy and arrogant the liberal elites.

Both are filled with the elite Intellectual Yet Idiots,
who insult anyone without their elite degrees.

IYI’s in action!

To be clear...I'm not blaming Trump. I'm only offering a possible suggestion for the difference in the two polls.

I'm doing my best to get people to vote in November as we need to hold the House and gain seats in the Senate.

And Schumer is attacked for not sticking up for that monster called Maxine.

Midterms will be a bloodbath. I expect actual blood to be shed.

Every republican, independent, and woke democrat with any sense must get to the polls AND TAKE TEN OTHER PEOPLE to vote out the leftist scum.

Today’s Democrats look like the mid 1980’s leftists who took on Reagan and Thatcher in Europe. They’re motto is “burn the whole thing down.” 30 years later and they still haven’t grasped the fact that they are and always have been useful idiots.
