Echoes in America of what we saw in Britain?

I have to think that we're in for a similar backlash amongst the "common folk" here in the USA as we saw in Britain last night. The people voted for Brexit in 2016 and it has been delayed by the British establishment/deep state. Just as the American people voted for an outsider in 2016 to change Washington, but this change has been at least partially stymied by the efforts of the Deep State and MSM, manifested in their latest attempt to impeach a duly elected President.

Here's to a landslide in 2020, taking back the House, keeping the Senate, and making the SCOTUS rock solid conservative for 20+ years!

Americans, like the British, are tired of butthurt liberals trying to overturn the results of a lawful election and telling us that we're too stupid to vote in our best interests.

I believe the Dems are severely miscalculating flyover country.

I think independents and conservatives on the coasts, that usually stay home, actually go out and vote this time.

The British followed us in flipping the electorate. The Conservative Party was a party of Moderate London centric elites, just like the Republicans used to be an elitist, snob infested Swamp. The Brexit Party is the UK's Tea Party, that effected change all across the UK.
Constituates that used to be Labour strongholds flipped, just like the flyover States flipped.

I've been keeping up with most of Europe and the rise of right wing nationalist candidates in several countries. The bottom line is this:
Europeans were educated from birth that diversity is a wonderful thing. Now that their neighborhoods are full of immigrants they find that diversity isn't so wonderful after all.

British voters got tired of the MSM story that the people didn’t really want Brexit.

What politicians ignored was that the people expected their representative to vote the way they voted in the referendum. Not the way some self-interested party leader tells his party to vote.

And despite Corbyn trying to buy votes with absurd promises even their mainstay areas turned on Labour. IMHO more significant than Jeremy announcing his resignation is that Dennis Skinner finally lost. His seat had always for the last 49 years been considered one of the most secure Labour seats in Parliament.

The vote in the UK showed that eventually folks reach a point where they realize the time has come to get rid of the incumbent.
