“Lending support” is a long way from endorsing, and nobody has yet done that with The Donald.
Do I like what The Donald is doing? Darned straight. He is ripping off the bandages plastered over festering wounds and exposing a LOT of corrupt practices to light, especially for the “low-information voter”. And because he does it boldly, without apology, and with enough grand or flamboyant manner, verve, style, flair or whatever, he is applauded with genuine admiration by a growing number of otherwise quite disparate factions.
Some call this populism, and it is. A parade was waiting to get formed up, a clearly defined and self-assured personality has stepped up to its head, setting a pace brisk and with great assurance. The bands strike up the march music, and the attraction is spread to the wider crowd which until now had only been standing on the sidelines, but gleefully joins in.
Of course, it is only prudent to glance back from time to time, to see if anybody is still there. If not, switch around to the front of wherever the procession is going.
You see The Art of the Deal in action.
Leadership abhors a vacuum.
I am just enjoying the lather that the MSM is in, and especially the GOPe.
I’m not sure where things will stand after the debates, Trump acknowledges that he is no debater.

Insightful post... BTTT
His message will surely resonate in the rust belt and all the places with closed up factories. The blue collar American worker has been sold down the river. One third of American factories have closed down. For thirty years we have been listening to the flim flam of the internationalists in both parties.
I remember how they told us that we would be sending some older labor intensive jobs to other countries because that was the old technology. We would be making new high technology goods, then high tech goods such televisions and computers went to other countries. They flat out lied to us all those years ago. Now it is hard to find things that are not made in other countries.
The same kinds of people who lied to us thirty years ago are lying to us about illegal immigration and what a blessing it is to us. These are the same people who control Boehner and McConnell and many of the fake conservatives.
