Just to add something - I was worried about him last Saturday (July 18), because of his McCain comment, but then I saw what you saw - people were HAPPY he called out McCain, finally. At that point, on Sunday, I knew that Trump had gotten through it, and is not going away.
Great minds surely think alike. I felt the same way after the McCain comments, and wondered if this was his big 'gotcha' moment, but it wasn't.
When I saw the post-McCain comment poll numbers, I knew right then, that he's really connected with the people on a very deep level. Deeper than I suspected.
I'm pretty sure the press and the political establishment were shocked into disbelief and abject butthurt about that .. LOL
They SO want this man to go away. He's giving them more grief than Sarah Palin!
