Mr. Trump’s nabbing of the presidential nod embodies a dramatic shift in the political paradigm. Many voters are now more motivated by their frustration with Washington than their ideology. As I’ve said all along, this movement is bigger than party or ideology, or even, dare I say, Trump himself. However, I’m not dismissing the incredible skill set our nominee possesses.
Through straightforward, unapologetic criticism of the powers-that-be, Trump has tapped into the anti-Washington sentiment. Anyone who read ‘The Art of the Deal’ shouldn’t be surprised by his technique or his success.
The negotiation strategy outlined by Trump the Dealmaker in his signature book gives key insight into Trump the Campaigner. He is focused on the American people’s shared frustration with politicians, bureaucrats, and the media. He is bold and unpredictable, always keeping the opposition off balance. And he is a master of earned media.
The undeniable talent that Mr. Trump displayed while navigating a massive 17-person primary will become even more evident in a head-to-head matchup this fall. One by one, he picked off the best and brightest the Republican establishment had to offer and motivated more people to go to the polls in the primary.
He is the only true outsider running for president. Now, he can focus on dismantling the Republican Party’s real opponent, Hillary Clinton.
While unpredictability shakes those conditioned to protect their own power, anyone who still has doubts about Mr. Trump should stop agonizing for a minute, take a deep breath, and at least contemplate the value of having such a unique asset at the top of our ticket.
Fortunately for our party, Trump is a nominee unlike anything we have ever seen. Based on everything we’ve witnessed to date, Mr. Trump is not going to walk into the Democrats’ traps or take their bait.

Where is he from?
An outsider is now a citizen who wants to enlist in the legislative army to conduct the business of the citizenry
What's an insider ...
a fetus ?
And another senator reinforces the rumor that “senator” is really Latin for “ignorant asshat”
comments section of the article is filled with Hillary shills.
seeing that more and more.
Thanks Mike
GEORGIA! Our outsider Senator doing a great job!
Did you miss the article telling about how much money was being paid to do just that!
‘Perdue Wins in Georgia, Avoids Runoff’
Both Nunn and Perdue were first time candidates; both were also benefactors of well-known names in Georgia politics.
Nunn is the daughter of revered former Georgia Sen. Sam Nunn who campaigned heavily on his daughter’s behalf.
Perdue is also from a political family; former Gov. Sonny Perdue is a cousin. The former Dollar General CEO made his business experience the centerpiece of his run.

Your insightful analysis is overwhelming.
For those who don’t know, Perdue is very much an outsider, having been elected in 2014, after a career in business. The primary included long-time Congressmen who the Georgia electorate rejected. Jack Kingston in particular.
I did read a few of them, but it is so obvious, they don’t even try to blend in.
They attempt to hijack every comment section now. I mean, it could be non Trump related and there they are attacking Trump, but they post the same cut and paste stuff over and over, like they are paid by the post.
I think this is going to backfire on her.
GA FReeper ping. An interesting commentary from our junior Senator.
Georgia
LOL - Sen. David Perdue's a fool...
Our 'ideology' for the past 20 years has been SECURE THE DAMN BORDERS - we want a country that's not run over by illegals.
THAT WAS THE WISH OF THE MAJORITY OF AMERICANS OF BOTH PARTIES.
SECURE THE DAMN BORDERS.
And David Perdue YOU and your fellow 'elites' knew it because you would run on it. Then you'd get to DC and NOT DO CRAP FOR THE PEOPLE. Perdue would feather your own nest - talk 'principles' and screw over the people who elected you IN FAVOR of your donors and friends in DC.
This election IS about ideology... just NOT the type practiced in DC drawing rooms and dinner parties by crooks, liars, and scammers.
Oh and please take Bill Kristol with you...
OK - my bad... I saw "Washington Post" and the insulting first sentence and responded to the stereotype. My apologies to David Perdue ...
Yea it is paid by the post.
I have been looking for the article. I think it was posted here.
Paying people to post on comment sections etc
TTTT!
