The Washington chattering class is perplexed and bedeviled by a political alien by the name of Donald Trump, who just doesn’t have the good manners to die, no matter how hard they try to kill him. No, like The Terminator, he keeps on coming, advancing through the fusillade of snide and snarky bullets, oblivious to the ad hominem walls of fire in his path, and immune to their favorite weapon: rhetorical condescension and ridicule.
Yet, for some inexplicable reason, the more Trump is bashed the more people love him.
Why? He’s brash, not polished. He’s vulgar, not erudite. He’s a recent convert to the faith, not a lifetime conservative Republican. He’s politically incorrect, neither nuanced nor fluent in Orwellian doublethink. He’s even harsh at times to his adversaries, not disingenuously charming (like he who shall not be named).
Yet all those qualities seem to make him all the more endearing to many folks.
How can this be? ....

Could tell if you have been pinged to this thread
LOL I meant mental but LOL he certainly has a stick up his arse.
My thoughts exactly.
I want Cruz to be president but I think his time is best used after Trump slays the dragon.

Please check it out.
I started wondering today if maybe Trump and Cruz and possibly Palin saw it coming and have worked out their own plan.
Lol !!!! It’s amazing to see how many people are feeling the same way about this turn of events. I just ordered 250 Trump bumper stickers and plan to fan the flames by handing them out on the sides of roads here in the DC area. People pull up behind me all the time a take pics of the Trump sticker on my car - I figured I’d start handing them out to build the Army - we’ve got 15 months.
Sorry to be so cranky Boss.
I just get tired of being coaxed up on the radar and being shot in the head.
...continue to grow the sacred institution of centralized government.
The People just want a competent dragon slayer to kill the damn thing.
Amen, brother.
As many have said, Trump defies the standard laws of political gravity.
To enlarge on that analogy, I’d add that, it’s only because he’s stepped into a rip in the fabric of time, a temporal distortion, a wormhole, if you will.
It’s only in a time such as this, that a man like Donald Trump could be in such resonant harmony with so many Americans. He has the right prescription for what ails us, and possesses the correct and proper temperament to get the job done.
This is why his candidacy is winning at a level not seen in American politics in lifetimes.
Add. Ben Carson to that list and maybe one other. They are working as a team to beat the divide and disrupt gopee in their own game
It does feel like we’re on the brink of history
Reagan had “it”.
I’ve been saying essentially the same thing to people around me who can’t see beyond Trump’s quirks. Only this author says it much better than I.
The Dragon is so large it has become a shapeshifter.
Looks like puddty tat to some
If you look at it though, while Trump went to Michigan, Cruz has been in the south. Could they be working both ends together?
Also, Palin has visited Trump recently and Trump hired her chief of staff.
Like I said, it may just be wishful thinking on my part. It is almost too good to be true if it is really what is going on.
Where’s CEW for an AT counter?
I have thought this very thing for a long time now. The people's reaction to Donald Trump is a good measure of the depth of their fury at their government.
It's not a stretch to say that millions sit daily, contemplating what a second American Revolution will look like, if someone doesn't step up and lead the nation back from the brink.
There's no doubt in my mind that what we're seeing in Donald Trump, is the realization of so many of our hopes to avoid that terrible future. Like you, I think this is our very last chance to fix what's broken through the ballot box.
...and he doesn’t need anyone’s money.
Now that is damn cool! Thank you!
George Will is just even worth mentioning.
I heard he was doing the same stuff when Reagan was running for office. Seems he can’t abide any conservatives disturbing his RINO heaven.
