Trump's latest disapproval numbers - 58% of Americans - are astonishing for a newly minted administration. Just as a lot of "leave" voters expressed remorse in the wake of the Brexit vote, there's said to be a similar phenomenon underway among Trump voters.

In that job incompetence can be career ending. The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.com
