For good, bad or indifferent; for right or wrong; Donald Trump has seized the mantle as the leader of the "Fed Up Voter" block.

He has said things that have needed to be said ... without apology or kowtowing to the liberal media. He has poked the Establishment of both parties in the eye and asked ... "What are you going to do about it!" And we cheered.

And now a large and growing segment of this population cheers, since this is the first time we've seen this attitude in a politician since 1988 (with some all too fleeting moments from W/Cheney in 2000-2004). The 2016 gOp POTUS candidate will represent this "Fighter Caucus" or there will be a third party run. No one wants Jeb!Jeb?!, or one of his surrogates running as a placeholder, ala Bush I, Dole, McQueeg, Romney. Every attack on Trump is viewed as an attack on the voters who are lining up behind him. Je Suis Donald!

You've called us WackoBirds and Crazies and said you were going to punch us in the nose. And now, thanks to Boehner/McConnell/Corker/McQueeg/et al ... whatever you say to Trump, you say to us. It is you who has created this 'monster' and anything you do to try and knock him down only makes him ("us") stronger. Even leg-shaking gOpee consultant hack Luntz sees that nothing disqualifies Trump. This is all your own fault gOpee. Embrace the Suck!

Trump is given a pass for his flip-flops and historical liberal positions on issues since people see he genuinely wants America to be great again and he is a proven winner. When you've had nothing but losers for as long as we've had (even when we won we lost to bigger government, compromise of our principles, status quo), you've got a recipe for the acceptance of anyone who will change this status quo. And the voting public intuitively sees that Donald Trump will change the status quo. 'Change' for the sake of 'Change'. Now where have we heard that before?

Why Voters Like Trump's ~~Rudeness~~Style

American voters are tired of those politicians who work, in their own terms, to minimize their negatives, to offend as few "voter groups" as possible. That's a liberal tactic: to categorize the entire nation into voter groups, analyze what they want to hear, and then speak it to them. It's all gone too far.

Perhaps, just perhaps, this is Change we can believe in.
