The groundswell has not changed since trump was appointed (#3884)

     I like to refer to the groundswell as our blue wave. Because after the shock of Hillary Clinton not being our president most of us were deflated and angry. But since then we have mustered our will to battle back against the demeaning and destructive trump with all we can. We went into the 2018 midterm election resolved to take back the House and tried mightily against the odds to capture the Senate as well. We did get the House by plenty but were not able to wrestle control of the Senate. Yet we inspired each other regardless and now that the 2020 election cycle is much more favorable to us to take the Senate we are more than ready to accomplish it.
     The presidency is the constant that binds us in defeating trump. He has been underwater in his approval/disapproval polls since day one of his appointment. The at least 10 point deficit in approval since his first day in office has not changed and if anything it is getting worse for him. This tells me that nothing he has done in his first almost 3 years in office has had any positive effect on the majority of us. He will get his base of about 40% to follow him even if he takes them to their death but outside of that it really does appear that the rest of us are at minimum wary of his effect on us. That will be his undoing in that we are not even at pitying him we are beyond that and as angry as a disturbed hive of bees.
     Our blue wave is still hanging above his head and in the countdown to the time when the votes are finally counted for the 2020 election he will not have a way to stop it from crashing down on him. I expect that like any spoiled rich kid who never grew up that he will find some way to try to keep his appointed presidency despite being defeated but we will cross that bridge when the time comes. For now though the many more of us than him will keep the pressure on him and make damn sure that he feels our wrath in no uncertain way. There is nothing for trump to do to make himself beloved and for that he will pay dearly. We the blue wave are not the kind of people to be spat upon and then thank the spatter!
