Republicans Voted for Trump

Donald J. Trump's first week in office has been stormy.


His latest is the attempt to ban Muslims from a handful of middle-eastern countries.


Many people are upset about the 'ban'.

Our "special relationship" with the United Kingdom is in some danger.

A petition calling for Trump to be banned from visiting the UK has already got over 250,000 signatures  Once a certain number of signatures are on the petition, the UK Parliament has to debate the issue.


We don't have a "vote of confidence" in our political system (as the Brits do), but Trump's poll numbers for approval are dropping fast. He is in a race with Richard Nixon for the most reviled president in history and I never thought that could be possible after George W. Bush. Will he cross the impeachment finish line before Nixon? Stay tuned.
