Spot-on and well said.
Trump showed how to win. It’s called “Fighting BACK”. He wasn’t the typical gutless RINO p*ssy that the dems expected.
“In contrast, the more similar you are to a Minuteman of 1776, the more likely you are to vote Republican. The GOP appeals to Core Americans, the Democrats to Fringe Americans.”

To be fair, George HW Bush, a huge RINO, wasn’t exactly gutless regarding the media (remember, he managed to take down Dan Rather when the latter tried to pull a fast one on him over Iran-Contra, even turn the tables on him. And bear in mind, Rather was at the height of his power at the time.). But yeah, we definitely needed a president who actually COULD fight back against the media, hard and fast. Too much time was spent appeasing the media. Good thing Trump’s an actual fighter.
