Why do you think Trump is leading the polls right now? It’s not because he is a brilliant politician. He’s a moderate who appeals to the angry vote on both sides of the aisle. Hillary and Sanders are so far left that he’s probably drawing a larger than normal group of center-left democrats. And the Republican “leadership” has been embarrassing. Boehner and McConnell should lose their positions.
Shawn, I think your astute analysis captures part of his appeal. The other part is his mocking of the PC thought police. He has tapped into a deep CONTEMPT much of the public has for our feckless, overreaching federal government.
That’s because people are tired of the “same old”!
The natives are restless and therefore unpredictable.
Absolutely.
