I have thought the same thing for a number of years.
The big question is what kind of President Trump is going be and what he is going to do once elected
Nobody has any idea on this, probably including Trump
One thing for certain is that Trump has been playing his supporters like a violin
At best Trump is a pragmatic, benevolent opportunist who is media savvy and a masterful manipulator of the media and public opinion which is not a bad skill set for a politician. It is however , a dangerous skill when misused
A lot of Trump's most ardent supporters are probably going to be very disappointed in the man they have invested so much in when he “ evolves”
Trump watching over the years suggests that what motivates Trump and make up his defining traits is to be, say and do whatever he needs to in order to get what he wants at any particular point in time - especially if it includes beating an opponent and “winning” what ever it is that Trump wants to win.
Yes. It's interesting to note that his stated position today on cross-gender bathrooms was based on the costs to his businesses to modify bathrooms. I think that's his only true principle: Make money for Trump.
I do no agree. I think Trump seems to be motivated by simple patriotism.
It has been so long since American politicians have been for America, you can see why a whole huge bunch of Americans are confused by this.
He won conservative supporters over with “Mexican rapists” and gave himself a shot in the arm later with “Muslim ban.” Those shots against political correctness got his conservative supporters emotionally invested in him, and he doesn’t seem to have yet made enough gaffes from their perspective to undo any of that support.
His liberal supporters in the northeast know what he is and know what positions he’s faking, so that’s why they go along to give him the blue states.
