Reid's comment seems to be an acknowledgement that Trump gets along with people.

They're all big government operators. That's why they get along. That's why Trump donated to the Clintons. That's why he backed De Blasio. With Trump you'll get endless "deals" with Reid and Pelosi.

Peas in a pod.

I'll try to convey why I support Trump in a way that gets through.

The US is in a mess....we're way down that slippery slope to the trash heap of failed civilizations. Trump gets it. He's seen all that's bad that has happened since our age group grew up in the 1950s and 1960s. In the interim, he's had a successful career building beautiful things and being a loving and dedicated father and grandfather. My take from all that....Trump really does want to "Make America Great Again".

To do that, we all have to agree on that goal, even though we have different definitions of what "Great" means and even when we agree on that, how to get there. We need someone who can prioritize and persuade others. We need someone who knows which things cannot be compromised.

That's Trump. We'll never save the nation with someone everybody who is involved in governing despises or with someone who sells out to the highest bidder before they even unpack in DC.

Trump is that unlikely hero that occurs at critical times in history. Someone who can change the course of things, by sheer force of will. Who comes to mind? Lech Walesa, Eva Peron, Caesar Chavez, MLK, Ghandi. We're staring at a real opportunity, and folks will throw it away for their political agenda. What's the point of choosing a pol to undo the mess we're in?
