Here’s my theory, my $0.02.
Donald has rediscovered the old adage. If dog bites man, this is not news. If man bites dog, this is news.
Our modern press, in its boredom and laziness, has often turned into a dog-biting man for its own sake. Do something new, generate some novel Kabuki dance, even if they can’t think of some legitimate way to do it. Oh the formula sells; but it also generates all manner of mischief on the side.
Enter Donald Trump. All he has to offer is a general idea, and it looks laughably simple. Make America great again. And he has some notions about how to do it that are clumsy but yet sincere. This is the man.
Now enter all our entrenched interests. They are the dogs; and normally any wise politician will pussy foot around them, because he wants their support.
Well, not Donald Trump, who is so enamored of his idea that he’ll do just about anything, step on any toe! Chomp, chomp, chomp, chomp! Arooooo, bow-wow, whiiiiine, snarl! Chomp, chomp, chomp, chomp! He’s even got Ted Cruz in his doghouse now!
And the media is like, we can’t possibly get enough mikes and cameras to this scene!
Well thought out.
Mark my words Trump will hold a presser before the townhall on CNN tomorrow. Talk about chaos. LOL!
