What percentage of Trump supporters also support McConnell and Ryan?

They say they are against the status quo, but are they really?

They have said for years now that the problem is with the "do-nothing" Congress and that we need term limits or something to get them out of office?

But were they serious?

When they vote for Trump, will they vote for their Congressman and Senator down ballot?

They have accomplished nothing if they cannot get rid of the problem. The problem with our country is not so much the Democratic Party. It is the Republican Party and most voters know it. They are the ones that have screwed the base of their Party. They have blocked, lied to, obstructed, and done everything they possibly could that was against the people's interests. They do not deserve to be in Washington.

And the Trump voters know it. But will they do anything about it? Don't hold your breath.

But they support their own Congressman. Very few see the disconnect there.

Me? I think that Republican Congressmen and Senators suck (a few Democrats that vote with them too often, too).
