NEW: President Trump has never before been in such an echo chamber
His domestic travel has basically stopped. He sees rich donors and MAGA media, not actual voters
Everyone around him is saying he is right. But polls show more Americans think he is wrong www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Trump Has Never Been More Isolated

I find it highly ironic that the party that bemoaned the deep state and alleged the cover-up of pedophiles is now embroiled in defending the party that has the largest pedophile cover-up in American history.
