In a startling turn of events a consortium of liberal, progressive, and moderate leaning organizations have made what astute political observers are calling a brilliant strategy move. They have offered President Trump their full endorsement, proclaiming themselves the president’s new “core” supporters in return for his backing an agenda geared to strengthening the Founding Fathers’ democratic principles as contained in the U.S. Constitution.

The president, who promised to read the Constitution, was excited by the plan and especially impressed by the catchy political slogan proposed by his new political base, “Make Donald Trump Great Again!”
