Donald Trump is the greatest weapon that the left had ever unleashed. He converts conservatives into socialists with a few magic words.
Until a couple of days ago, I didn’t understand it. Now, I think I do. I’m going to call it the “Dragonslayer Syndrome.”
People see him as a would-be dragonslayer. The evil dragon (D.C. cartel, GOP elite, whatever-you-call-it) has been terrorizing the people for so long that they will support anyone who claims he will slay the dragon. They will overlook his past misdeeds and current ulterior motives so as long as the dragon gets slain. That’s the only goal in sight.
As you probably know from reading fairytales, if the Dragonslayer is successful, he is celebrated as a hero and greatly rewarded, but he never gets to be king.
So, when you see conservatives defending him and overlooking what would normally be a nail in another’s coffin, realize that their focus is totally and solely on slaying the dragon.
I don’t know if he can slay the dragon or not. Time will tell. But rest assured, he will not be king in this fairytale.
