Buyer’s remorse

[wtg]

One voter at a time they’re figuring it out. The effects of his actions are so far reaching that few will escape the negative effects.

Most Michigan swing voters in our latest Engagious/Sago focus groups said that although they voted for President Trump in November, they have objections, frustrations and fears about his behavior since he returned to power.

Driving the news: Ten of 13 participants from this battleground, auto-industry state bordering Canada said what they're seeing isn't what they thought they were voting for — and they're worried Trump's approach may hurt their pocketbooks.
"Erratic," "frightening," "disruptive" and "dictator" were among the words they used to describe their concerns..

Duh. Glad more are noticing. It will take reaching a tipping point for elected Rethuglicans to realize this could hurt their chances for reelection... Then maybe they will take back the power they've so cheerfully given away.

I guess some people need to see to learn. I had an uncle who was very good at building things but he couldn't visualize projects ahead of time. He had to just 'get to it' and he worked it out, and it made sense to him, by doing. Probably the same phenomenon.
