The Electorate and The Donald Trump Factor

Part of the electorate who voted for Trump are becoming ditto heads just like the republican party in general.  First it was Trump that aped the party by casting blame on everyone else.  During the campaign part of the electorate who backed Trump let their feelings be known on facebook, twitter and other social networks available and tried so hard to predict that Trump would make a great President.

After the election Trump backers were almost silent on the social scene until just recently when it became clear for all to see Trump's failure to run the country and do the things he said he would do.  But in the last week or so they are back on the social networks blaming everyone but Trump for his own failures on health care, immigration, his campaign's collusion with Russia and the FBI investigation  on the matter, his children's involvement and conflict of interest with being a Presidential adviser while still running Trump's business, the President's lies that President Obama wiretapped his phones at Trump tower which has set off a full scale demand for an independent investigation into what Trump really knew.

Part of Trump's voting electorate have now blamed the news media, democrats, some republicans and even "fake news" for Trump's failures. And of course we all know Trump is the author of "fake news."  They can not cope with the fact they helped elect a man who was a tainted candidate in the first place and as President continues to taint every thing he touches.  And that really says it all.
