Moreover, and this is probably the LEAST commented upon phenomenon of this entire campaign . . . .
TRUMP HAS STEADILY GOTTEN MORE CONSERVATIVE BY THE DAY.
Contrast his stated positions in June with the fleshed out website issue statements over the summer and you’ll see he has grown much more conservative.
Bannon, I think, is instructing him on Alinsky and on liberalism as a whole.
Great observation. I’m sure the media and now Obama’s treachery has opened Trump’s eyes quite a bit.
In elections candidates positions are often fluid and changing, this is nothing new and happens often during elections as policies are fined tuned, altered etc.
In fact it seems the only people screaming, "Trump is no conservative", were those masquerading as conservatives in the hopes of conning those in the Republican party to vote for yet another insider. I call them, neo-conservatives or posers. We're still surrounded by them.
It's ironic, we saw and heard from these conservative posers throughout the entire election process. But in the decades prior to the election, they were no where to be seen. ☺
Maybe I am splitting hairs, but I don’t really see him becoming more Conservative as much as I see him becoming more stridently Nationalist. And that is a wonderful thing.
There are still a lot of things about his social policies that are if not alarming, at least slightly worrisome, but that’s small potatoes compared to his full throat advocacy of America, American values, and the rule of law.
Bannon may be helping, but I think to a larger degree, Trump is trusting and running on his own instincts. He’s smart enough to know that the one thing he dare not do is leave the initiative to the left, and let them steamroller his administration on their schedule.
He’s going to have to take the battle directly to the left’s generals — particularly Obama, Clinton, Schumer, and Pelosi — but Obama is the most important target. He MUST be neutralized. Trump is going to take him all the way out. I don’t know how, but I think the wiretapping assault is just the first of many to come.
I have indeed noticed that with great pleasure. And his very sincere mention of God, and Melania’s prayer. Could not be better.
I’ve thought about this for over a year as Trump became more seasoned in politics, He is used to building skyscrapers that must adhere perfectly to laws of reality. Have you noticed how weary he looks? I have, I believe it is the toll of coming to grips with evil on a scale he hadn’t experienced in his life before. Only a person who has spent their life in academia can know the depth of hatred for Western Civilization which infects humanites professors whose jihad is to spread their ideas to those most vulnerable (see tagline).
