I think much of the hand wringing around here is because some of our fellow Freepers have a traditional mindset in thinking what a presidential campaign is supposed to be like. Look, Trump won the GOP nomination by not following conventional rules. Why expect him to follow tradition now? As if that helped in the last two elections. All the angst over him not spending money yet on commercials. People wetting their pants with every word he says. Trump is well aware of the game the Uniparty and their media arm is trying to play on him, and he’s throwing it back in their faces. They may have damaged him with this relentless attack, but they didn’t destroy his campaign.

——fellow Freepers have a traditional mindset-—

The condition is “existing in a rut”

At some point, the rut becomes so deep one can’t see over the sides. The fact there is life outside the rut can no longer be discerned. To leave the rut requires intellectual effort that will not be expended.

You can’t blame people for being nervous. We’ve watched both George W. and Romney go down in flames by not defending themselves as the sh*tstorm of Democrat attacks ramped up to 11. To the point where even the most absurd attacks were believed by the public (Bush lied....Romney gives people cancer)

The longer Trump lies in wait to make his move the more nervous people are going to become.

I agree with your post.

We all want someone that will go to Washington and kick down doors, break windows, and flip the current bunch on their heads. But we think the one that will do that will have a nice PC campaign to get there?

Just doesnt make sense. Embrace the ruckus, it is what our politics have needed for a long time...a real hell raiser.....another Andrew Jackson!
