As a Brit American my observations from within; the USA is suffering from the same issues as many other democracies across the globe. Those awful creatures called the people are causing problems because social media has given them a voice, whether that voice is true, fake or just misinformed. Trump aside from all the points made in the previous comments is a master at self marketing and use of social media no matter if it is lies, jingoism, misinformation or egotistical he has both political parties on the run. The Democrats are in disarray with time running out to come up with a clear strategy and message, the Republicans can't control their boss and hope he doesn't do anything really stupid, so they can keep their jobs. In the same way Brexit has divided the UK so has Trump divided America. The ordinary folk in general are having a good time (although they won't admit it), inflation is low, fuel prices are low, mortgage rates are low, unemployment is low, job security is relatively high, taxes have not risen excessively, retirement savings have had a very good run, Ricky Gervais has slammed Holywood, they've all bought new iPhones and go on holidays, etc.. Most people do not like the man but like Button implied "who do I vote for". Not long till we find out
