What’s not true? Is Trump not president? Are republicans not in the majority in both congressional houses?

Trump won his election as did every sitting Congress person. Let’s not be pedantic. Everybody understands winning an election with a majority of congressional seats constitutes a mandate. Perhaps not a strong one, but in the land today it is the president and his party who are in the strongest position to pass bills and make laws, not their opponents. What the government does with that power is what’s interesting. How it got that power? Also interesting. The guy in charge has to answer the questions. The privilege and responsibility comes with the office.
