I agree. But you gotta admit it resonates with some others.
Yes. He does resonate. He appeals to people’s base instincts. Some people don’t mind the insults and the bluster. I’m looking more for an RR, a Churchill, or a Thatcher. I just don’t view DT as presidential timber in either style or substance. I get the impression it is all about him. Yes, he is refreshingly politically incorrect. But he is also...bombastic, petty, thin skinned, narcissistic, arrogant, obnoxious, childish, blustery, insulting, name calling, crude, crass, loud mouthed, unpredictable, shallow, loose cannon, uncorked vox pox, untrustworthy, and demeaning. He surrounds himself with yes men and sycophants, expects only softball questions from the media, wants adoring crowds and adulation. I think it is a borderline cult of personality, and I find it alarming. The biggest joke is that he is anti-establishment. Fact is you can’t get more establishment than DT. He was born into an immensely wealthy NY real estate empire. Not only is DT a country club Republican, but he actually owns many of the world’s finest golf courses. He is by far the richest man ever to run for president. He hobnobs with the rich and famous. He is closely associated with the Clintons. He gives to BOTH political parties. He lives in fabulous mansions and Manhattan penthouses. A rather bizarre tribune of the common man if you ask me. His loud mouth and vast wealth gives him the most attention. DT has done jack diddly squat for the conservative movement over the years, but his pocketbook has been open to the Clintons, Reid, and Pelousy. Sorry if I am not impressed. In fact, I’m quite skeptical. If he become the GOP nominee, I will support him despite my personal reservations. For the time being, I think we have better choices available at this point.
