Astonished, are you? What is really astonishing is the magnitude of the willful ignorance of all those "white, working class voters" we've been hearing so much about who willfully chose to overlook a host of glaring warning signs before the election that the person and party for whom they ultimately voted would not have their best interests at heart. If they willfully chose ignorance then and foisted this creature known as Trump on the rest of us, why, pray tell, should they be coddled now that the fruits of their votes are finally being manifested? If confronting the reality of their own actions is what it takes for them to finally confront the truth that they've been conned by the ultimate con man, then I'm all for it.
