Ping.
This has been my line of reasoning, only better expressed by the author. Trump as President will want to be the greatest President, the one who saves the US from near-irreversible decline. His ego and love of family won’t allow anything less.
“The answer is as simple as it is conclusive and convincing. Donald Trump is the only candidate in either major party whose personal interests are aligned with those of the American public...”
There ya go.
bump
I can see that The Donald would be this guy’s candidate. Two toxic, nasty fish swimming in the same waters.
Donald Trump not only wants to make America great again, he wants America to be American.

Unlike the two political parties who have been importing fraudulently documented foreigners by the millions every year to permanently change the demographics of the country.
...there you go again... snap out of it!!! Damning the messengers who tell the truth... Bad form, dude.
I’m still reeling from Day’s description of himself as an intellectual. Er, that’s for other people to say and your book on religion was UNREADABLE!
Ping!

Beautifully said! Go TRUMP!
“I can see that The Donald would be this guys candidate. Two toxic, nasty fish swimming in the same waters.”
Blow, fish.
“Ask yourself this: why did Donald Trump run for president in the first place? I believe that the real reason is that he, like you, is deeply concerned about the current state of the United States of America, and he, like you, fears for its future.”
Sorry, but that conjecture doesn’t hold up. He’s been talking about his ambitions on the presidency since the 80s, and he has run multiple times in the past but never really got any traction. So he didn’t have some sudden revelation that he should abandon his previous beliefs and try to save America, he is just Trump doing what Trump has always done.
“...he has run multiple times in the past...”
You demonstate fanatical ignorance with that comment. Trump has never run for president before.
Changing the country from a peaceful, almost sleepy, place where your doors remained unlocked and your children could walk unmolested into a sinister, strange place where you never know who the guy next to you might be, and what he could do.
And foreign nationals in the country illegally staging demonstrations on the streets would have been body slammed by a battalion of National Guardsmen in '65.
-—...George H.W. Bush raised taxes, Bill Clinton had sex with that woman, George W. Bush embraced an arrogant foreign policy, and Barack Obama has waged war from Syria to Ukraine.-—
In all due respect to the author, these are about the least of the shamefully egregious acts by these...people.
At any rate, Mr. Trump is the man for the times. No question about it. He wants the job for the right reasons.
I don’t see any other billionaires or even multimillionaires going to any lengths at all to save this country from the abyss. Regardless of ego.
The problem is that he wants to be loved by the American people on his own terms, or as Charles Foster Kane put it, "A toast, Jedediah, to love on my terms. Those are the only terms anybody ever knows."
Trump is Jehu, Julius Caesar, and Cromwell, all rolled into one. He can, and given the chance probably will make America great again, but it is not his intention to make America America again--that would require someone who knows and loves the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. There is only one person in the race with that trait, and he is increasingly unlikely to get his seat at the Oval Office desk.
And foreign nationals in the country illegally staging demonstrations on the streets would have been body slammed by a battalion of National Guardsmen in '65.
If FR offered the option of +1-ing comments, I would spend the entire rest of the day doing so for this one, over and over and over again. ;)
Elegant in its simplicity.
