When you read or listen to the critics of Donald Trump don't expect to learn anything new.
You will hear Trump is a narcissist, vulgar, racist, anti-this/anti-that, and so much more.
You will also hear insulting remarks about those who show up at his rallies.
What you will not hear is what he says that gained him the most votes in the Republican
campaign. Building a wall on our Southern border, no trade deals that send more American
jobs overseas, reducing taxes on the middle class, strengthening the military, freeze on refugees
from the Middle East, localize public education and fixing problems politicians only talk about
This is what he is saying that brings out the biggest crowds and won him the most primaries,
all omitted from the commentaries written to destroy his candidacy.
Consider his opponents, a strange mix of bedfellows. Long in the tooth Republican members of
the Senate, some who share similar disdain for Ted Cruz. Add to this the entire Democrat Party,
and its surrogates in the MoveOn.org group and its offspring #Black Lives Matter. Then we can
add the Republican establish consisting of the donors, lobbyists, so-called conservative media
darlings. And last, but never considered least, the Democrat controlled liberal media led by the
NY Times and Washington Post.
This is a formidable alliance that would destroy a lesser candidate. But defeating a candidate is
a lot easier than defeating a movement.
The "thread" ignored is the appeal of Trump's message which is anything but what his attackers say it is.
