I watched the movie Elysium today.  It was a great metaphor as to where we are headed as a society.  In that scenario you believe you will be living off world in the lap of luxury.  Unless you realize you’ll be down here with the rest of us scum that you look down upon then that is exactly the world we are headed to.

Your inability to understand us is equally astounding.
Whatever reason you have foir saying the government elites don't represent you, there are tens of millions of Americans who could represent you, that specific part of you, whatever it is, better than Trump does.  Who would actually work hard and achieve more than a tax cut with 4 years in power.
And he's not fighting corruption.  He never has and he never will.  He only fights for himself.

You misunderstood me Mike.  I do not support Trump but I do understand his appeal.  Our federal government is out of control.  None of them represent the middle class and exploit us at every turn.  Trump infuriates the establishment and they are scared to death of him.  That is the appeal.  Many former republicans see this and moved away from the party.  Until democrats are fed up enough the status quo will continue and we will all continue to lose freedoms.
