Trump is in this for one thing: Trump.”

Trump is successful and interesting. He is not indebted to the any entity we know about at this time. Actually Trump has said little as to specific things he would do. Perhaps he is selling HOPE. We need hope. Because America is in a hell of a mess. True HOPE can be misleading, but it is certainly the best one on the current horizon. Let us pray to God for direction and a turning of our nation back to the principles that made AMERICA great. Is anything impossible for God? Let us trust the LORD to direct our nation. America has turned away from Christianity bit by bit to our considerable demise. TRUST and verify. God speed! In Jesus name I pray. Amen

. . . Perhaps [Trump] is selling HOPE. We need hope. Because America is in a hell of a mess.

I agree. And another thing that Herman Cain explains very well in this excellent article is that Trump can win the general election because he can attract a wide range of voters, beyond just the conservative base.

So this is another key factor. I don't particularly like some of Trump's anti-free-trade ideas. But guess what, a lot of independent and working class Democrats care about protecting jobs -- and Trump is speaking to them too.

For someone to get elected president, they need to build a coalition of support.

No one can psychoanalyze a candidate's motives 100%. But I take heart knowing that:

  • Trump is a champion of capitalism,
  • he will protect Americans,
  • he will attack the political correctness disease,
  • and he isn't bought by anybody.

I liked a lot of your post and agree!
But I do think Trump is and has been specific......go read his position papers...
....unless I misunderstand, and you want an extreme amount of specificity
