I have my doubts about Donald Trump, but I love the way he keeps hammering on “our stupid politicians.”

That’s exactly the right theme. He can sell it because he’s an outsider.

And they are stupid. Really slack-jaw, open-mouth, fly-unzipped, toilet-paper-sticking-out-of-the-back-of-their-pants stupid.

Political correctness makes some of them stupid. But most are just plain old stupid.

Trump is not captive to political circles. And so he has escaped their spell.

They are glad-handing actors, some with convincing public speaking ability, whose only goal is to get elected, stay elected and feather their nest. That's it. They have little knowledge in the things we would want our leaders to know about - economics, finance, foreign policy, rule of law, the Constitution.

And the voting public doesn't demand any of these things from them. All they want these days is someone "cool" and "hip" who gives them stuff.

We are so hosed.

I’ve never been much of a fan of Trump but like you I love the way he’s speaking out and saying it like it is against the politicos, especially the GOPe.

They’re really ticked and can’t really do a dang thing about it.
