Desperate people who are looking for a political savior are easily deceived. Look at the popularity of Bill Clinton’s golfing buddy.
But—but—she’s a woman—and she doesn’t like Trump—she must be perfect. LOL
You’re absolutely right GeronL.
I sit back somewhat in amazement at conservatives going nuts over Trump. Yeah, Fiorina isn’t a conservative. Trump also supported the stimulus. He supported the Wall Street bailout. He supported the auto bailouts. He advocated taxing the wealthy, has been pro choice, pro abortion, pro universal health care, etc. Yeah, people’s views evolve and change. But typically not when they’re past middle age and not practically overnight.
I get that Trump has tapped into what a lot of conservatives and a lot of Americans are frustrated about- the tone deafness of the political class. And I don’t mind terribly I guess if he’s just drawing our attention for a while and then goes away.
But if he lasts for the long haul, he’s another narcissist. Electing a narcissist worked really well with Obama. And I can easily see him not getting along with Congress. Which, most of them suck, so that’s not such a bad thing. But then I can easily see him going the Obama route and saying, “You know what, screw it. I’m the president, I’ll do what I want.” Which of course ain’t exactly constitutional.
It’s fine for people to like some of what Trump has said and done. But ultimately, we don’t have to pick a candidate merely because he has the LOUDEST voice.
