This is Like a Slow Motion 9/11 [View all]

Everyone is aware there is a national crisis, and like 9/11 they are desperate for a leader and want to have faith in their leader and so they rally around the flag. After 9/11, Bush shot up to 90% approval. Think about that. I even shut my mouth about him and really hoped he would do the right thing and was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt at the time. Obviously, that didn't last long for me.

Trump still can't break 50%, even as everyone knows disaster is barreling down the tracks towards us and we all see it coming. That's pretty remarkable.
