When I first saw that section of the speech on video, I was put off a bit.

But after thinking about it, I realize that for us to destroy the PC culture, we must really stop being PC in any way.

That means saying that some Jews have big noses (and some don't), some Italians reek of garlic (me too sometimes), some Christians are ignorant rednecks (but some are intellectuals), some people are short, some tall, some talk funny (hell, we all talk funny to someone).

Anyway, you get my point. Trump reminds us that if we want PC dead, we must stop being at all PC. It's all or nothing.

Trump is gonna be Trump. He is not going to be PC to anyone. That means he is going to be insulting to everyone which translates as "don't be so damn sensitive. Buck up, insults are not gonna kill you."

The problem with this style is that meaningful discourse becomes almost impossible.

How does Trump respond to insults? Does he just get over it? Of course not, and it isn't reasonable to expect his opponents to.

Is that what the country needs? A constant cage match? It may feel good if your guy comes up with the most cutting insult but does that really make it easier to meet your objectives?
