As is often the case, the media and political establishment don’t understand what is happening in America. Nor do they understand what has happened to most Americans who live outside the New York-Washington or San Francisco-Los Angeles corridor.
They have the bully narrative backward. Of course Trump can be rough, imprecise, and overly defensive in his language. He takes the shot when he needn’t. (“Man, Marco Rubio drinks a lot of water.â€)
But the truth is that most, if not all, of the folks supporting Trump don’t care who he offends, as long as he’s standing up for them. They feel like they’ve been bullied for years. For them, Trump is like the savior kid in the schoolyard who takes on the bully by popping him right in the eye. The kids who have been ridiculed or roughed up suddenly have a champion.
1. Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul, in his book “Government Bullies,†said it this way: “Unelected bureaucrats, armed with arbitrary rules and no need to back them up, stonewall and attack American citizens at every turn. The damage can be overwhelmingly taxing — financially, emotionally and even physically.â€
Decent assessment.
Laura is spot on! The establishment don’t get it.
Daily fawning Trump-is-great post PING!
Yes, “The Don” certainly wasn’t “Bullying” private property owners when he pushed eminent domain against them to develop his edifice buildings...
Fall for anything, misguided hope - dupes
He has flummoxed the Clintons by mentioning Bill Cosby.
Both Donald and Ted have a KELO problem.
Donald thinks parcels of property should be able to be taken by Government for compensation for ‘the greater good’.
Ted wants to give the entire country away to illegals.
And who's to say he won't just be another bully and not have any affect on the policy areas she cares about?
Berlusconi was a lot like Trump. Did he have a lasting positive effect on Italy? Or just make a lot of noise?
“Ted wants to give the entire country away to illegals.”
This ongoing accusation is just pathetic. You are either ignorant or malicious by promoting such a falsehood. Please inform yourself, and stop making such skewed statements. Because promoting this lie is just no good.
