I read the replies at RCP to this article. Quite a few people see the infantile ignorance of this argument. It was reassuring to me.

The Leftist with their cult of personality political dogmas fail to realize this is NOT about Trump. While yes, Trump does have his fans, the bulk of the people behind Trump see him as the messenger for their political movement.

From the Reagan Democrats to Perot in the 1990s to the Tea Party, the average voters have had a political agenda of “Leave me alone-Look out of the USA 1st, fix the broken things.”

The problem is average Americans have never been able to be organized as the pressure groups nor been rallied to an effective poltical voice.

Trump merely the 1st candidate who was able to give that moment an organized winning voice. Trump can lose the leadership of this movement as easy as he got it.

Contrast that to Hitler. Hitler WAS the movement. His cult of personality was inexorably wrapped into the Nazi movement. Nazism could not exist as an effective poltical force without Hitler.

That is such a great explanation of the real “movement”. All it needed was someone who believed WE were right.
