Trump is the result of years of Media bias and Gerrymandering fueled by a giant injection of cash (Citizens United). As agendas get further apart and congress spends less time working a bipartisan agenda and more time working their team’s agenda at the same time bowing to the money that got them elected – the US voter gets more and more angry… and the electorate would vote for mickey mouse before they would vote for a republican or a democrat that smelled like more of the same…
Trump is a symptom of bigger problems that only congress can fix… but congress has no incentive to fix.
Time to give them the incentive–here is what’s up in 2018.
“We’re getting nothing done my friends. We’re getting nothing done.”- McCain

Oh, have you heard the story of the Scorpion and the Frog?
A scorpion asks a frog to carry it across a river. The frog hesitates, afraid of being stung, but the scorpion argues that if it did so, they would both drown. Considering this, the frog agrees, but midway across the river the scorpion does indeed sting the frog, dooming them both. When the frog asks the scorpion why, the scorpion replies that it was in its nature to do so. If the frog is the voter that cast thier ballot for mickey mouse in 2016… can you guess who the scorpion is???
