All good questions. Trump tells people what they have been dying to hear. Like a Snake oil salesman. If you shook hands with Trump you would be advised to make sure you have all your fingers.
TN had a list of thoughtful, fair questions.
Which one of the seven were you answering?
Very true.
Like a Snake oil salesman.
Maybe. I don't discount that possibility at all. But for the sake of argument, suppose a wall really needs to be built somewhere.
Candidate A: I will build that wall!
Candidate B: I might build that wall, maybe.
Candidate C: No wall needs to be built.
Candidate D: I'll have to think about it some more.
Now, Candidate A might be lying. But look at the alternatives. On most issues (not just a wall) this is roughly the Trump situation today.
Basically you’ll be trading a white narcissist for the black narcissist currently residing in Washington.
“Trump tells people what they have been dying to hear.”
Someone threw that mantra out there, and so people have been repeating it as if it is unusually profound. Why is it that no other candidate is saying what he says? According to Jeb! and a whole bunch of others, what Trump is saying is anathema to most Americans. All this is contradictory, or spin. What Trump is saying now, most of it I have heard him say for many, many years. And, pertaining to immigration, Trumps pumps up everybody, gets in office, and does a complete 180? And he wants a successful presidency?
