No president in American history was as disrespected and disliked as Donald Trump is today. His approval rating dropped five points last week, and now stands at 35 percent. But let’s be honest; Trump has earned his low report card. Virtually every action and every word from Donny boy harms the majority of the American people.

Sadly, Trump’s supporters and his pathetic, failed party don’t care. They will not only serve him, they will protect him. They are desperate to remain in control of all three branches of government. The truth is that they are not a group of very wise men and women. Trump’s vile presidency will inspire voters who generally refrain from voting in midterm elections to go to the polls. This November may experience a record number of voters, and that translates into losses for the Republican Party.

Although the media is not supportive, women are leading our nation. They are organizing to get out the vote, and more women have signed up to run for office in local, state, and federal elections than men.

Eleven days ago a new group of Americans joined the women, and are protesting against Trump and his party of hypocrites. Although their fight is based on a single issue, the banning of assault rifles, as they become involved, they will learn about the many issues not supported by the right wing which affect their future. America’s youth is demanding more, and Republicans are refusing to listen. Many of these high school students will be 18 by November and most will be of voting age in 2020. They will make themselves heard at the voting booth.

Republican politicians cannot rely on a popular president to aid them in their reelection efforts. As of today, 38 Republican members of the House have decided not to run for reelection. Democrats need to win just 26 seats to regain control of the House. This will remove ‘Lyin Paul Ryan’ from his position of power, and cause enormous harm to Trump’s failed presidency.

In the Senate, Republicans currently hold 51 seats. If Democrats win just two, they will be the party in power, and traitor Mitch McConnell will be placed where he belongs. He has failed to accomplish one positive thing for the American people during his 30+years in the senate.

Trump is likely to drop even further in the polls before the November 6^th election. In my state of Nevada, Dean Heller is one of only eight Republican senators who are up for reelection. He has been one of Trump’s strongest supporters; bowing to his fuhrer’s every demand.

Nevada turned blue in 2016. The majority of our state’s population is in the southern part of the state. They have become Democrats. Hillary received our state’s Electoral votes, and the first Hispanic woman in history won a seat in the senate. Issues which Republicans oppose including recreational marijuana and background checks for all gun purchases passed with relative ease. Heller will face two strong challengers in the primary. Dina Titus, and Danny Tarkanian are very popular with Republican voters in Las Vegas and Henderson, while Heller’s strength is in the north.

One final question; will Donny Boy be soiling the White House sheets in November? The noose is tightening around his neck as his former staff begins to turn on each other. Let the fun begin.
