In Trump country, voters know whos to blame for the health care debacle. Not their President

[TomCADem]

It is amazing the blind faith folks have in Trump.

They blame the establishment. They blame the Democrats. They blame the media.

But it seems that few voters in Trump country blame President Trump for the stunning collapse of the Republican-led effort to repeal and replace Obamacare.

“He did all he could, I think,” said Edward Reede, 73, who was pacing the sidewalk as he waited for a relative in the rural town of Fort Royal in northwest Virginia. “You can only do so much as president. You can only twist so many arms.”

“We just need to give President Trump time,” said Joleen Dudley, a real estate agent in Canton, Ga. “He isn’t one to give up, or he wouldn’t be a billionaire.”

Right?

Jesus Christ, he's the president, not a kid on their first day of summer camp. We don't need to "give him time" to stop missing his mommy and PlayStation and learn to work in a group with the other campers like a big boy.

17. It's sad that working-class people have been tricked into the notion of "if I work hard then

I could be filthy rich and benefit from republican tax cuts"
It's really amazing how well the "maybe some day" lottery mentality has been peddled to get people to vote against their interests.
