Was it planned that he would talk to a “left leaning crowd?”
No Labels is a well-known Lefty group. He couldn’t have been there by accident.
Joe Leiberman, Al Gore's running mate and a former Democrat whose Orthodox Judaism began to present a conflict as the Dem party moved farther and farther left until Leiberman finally left the Dems and went Independent — invited Trump. It looks as if they are long-time acquaintances. Best that can be said is that Leiberman has the left-leaning habit, but his conscience pulls him toward the center. Trump almost cancelled on learning of the left-lean of the group, but then decided that being there would be about halfway worth it — at least that is what I took from his intitial remarks about "50%."
Let Trump speak with lefters-— some may discover they may not be leftists at heart and are just along for the perceived chic crowd. These may be some new cross over voters. Kudos to fearless Trump.
