I completely agree. It’s Trump’s willingness to wade into controversial issues which he believes in, knowing the barrage of distortions and criticism he’s going to face, that makes him so special as a leader. That sort of leadership is the only way to change ingrained but misguiding “conventional wisdom”.
“It’s Trump’s willingness to wade into controversial issues which he believes in....”
He’s unceasingly patted himself on the back for the reversal of Roe v. Wade, but you think you know what he TRULY believes in regarding abortion....and that what he believes in is a somewhat watered-down stance?
His new-found moderation isn’t, as you say, controversial. Rather, it’s a calculated tilt to the center.
