You have an “insurgent” candidate who captures the hearts and minds of those loyal to principle over party

On what planet is Trump loyal to principles? What principles are those? Because they are not conservative principles.

People are deluding themselves.

>>People are deluding themselves.<<

People are reacting to his message, which they like. When you get right down to it, most of those who say they now support him probably don’t know his history, or didn’t know anything of it when they applauded his message.

Trump will fade as people get to know his past, but the other GOP candidates will benefit from seeing how strongly his message has resonated, and not just within the GOP base, either. Some of them will be able to adopt it for their own campaigns without demonstrating a conflict with their existing positions and demonstrated principles.

In that sense, Trump has done the GOP a huge favor.

I have no idea who your candidate is or would be but we need a strong leader not a politician. The politician thingie doesn't work anymore we need some one who can identify a problem, attack and solve it and move on. No more pretty words or promises. Just results. Who in your opinion is that person?
