      And Trump voters thought they were also voting against the system. One week later we are beginning to see that outcome. As long as we have legalized corruption, this system will never work for the majority.

    Trump told Muslims he would do better than Biden. Then after winning he nominated Mike Huckabee who has already said the West Bank should be annexed by Israel.
