12. He and his followers ARE THE MINORITY.

Fact: They lost the popular vote.
Fact: Their policies are unpopular.
Fact: tRump's polling numbers have never put him in a majority.

They ARE the minority. Always have been. The majority are being told how and what to do by the minority.

And someone needs to explain to him that he's not popular... PeeJ52 Apr 2019 #1
