That trait, yes. His others -- no.
.... and Trump does not appear to have the irrepressible need to be loved by the MSM and the DC elite as do so many career politicians on both the Right and the Left.
Mrs. C has become a fan of the Donald. However, as for me I am still hoping a knight in shining armor will ride up and save the day.
Caddis the younger reminded me of this crude example of HOPE. Hope in one hand, c—p in the other and see which hand gets full first.
My loathing for the Clintons is well known, it also is no secret that I like them every bit as much as I do Mike Huckabee.
What a party we belong to, Ron Paul can tell it like it is, yet he is derided as a KOOK. Liberal trash such as the Ozark YOKUM are loved by a large faction of our party.
What a shame. It seems that whore-mongers, child molesters, and men who sexually molest other men gain more traction in our party than they could in the Dhimmikrat party.
How can that be, unless we have been infiltrated by the lefty, commie loving bums we(some of us at least) oppose?
Trump at least has the testicles to get in the face of the elites who have run our party into the ground.
Oh dear, I have to end this rant.

All well and good, but Donald Trump is not a conservative - so why are we wasting time talking about him?
“Trump is proving that he has the metal to endure the attacks and rise above them, using them to his advantage.”
Is he? I figure he’s skating by because no one takes him seriously. Libs use him to make us look foolish, and RINOs use him to scare people away from Birtherism and related heresies. Maybe they should fear him a little, given the case of Ross Perot.
However, I don’t think Trump can manage even that. Which is not to say his xenophobia, protectionism, and imperialism aren’t genuinely popular, at least in a fleeting sense. It’s just that China-bashing is less of the moment than the deficit, inflation, and job growth. Trump is clearly on the wrong side of all that. Unless you take seriosuly his claims that we can simply choke enough money from the globe to cover our largess, and no one does.
Populism is always an option, but it’s gotta be the right sort of populism. Defending Medicare and the stimulus at this point is not a winning formula.
Trump is simply doing what the old media is covering up. Trump is merely exposing a corrupt and abusive government regime.
