Trump is certainly not a doctrinaire conservative and he has lots of past statements that can be used against him to discourage conservatives from supporting him. But Trump is hitting the issues Americans are concerned about and that Obama and the Republican congress have either ignored or refused to act on - and the electorate is sick of it.
Trump will probably not be the Republican presidential nominee but neither will Jeb Bush. That Ben Carson is right beside Trump in the Iowa polls is informative.
The anti-political establishment revolution is underway.
Maybe after Obama we will nominate a real black man. Both Carson’s parent black Americans and he get up in the hood.
Iowa is not a winner take all state. The top votes are distributed. The elitist have always been able to divide the vote keeping enough of the top votes away from the opposition.
The relationship between Trump and Cruz is very public
The relationship between Trump and Carson goes back for decades.
If those three end up taking all the delegates they will have successfully beaten the establishment at their own game
Very good post.
