Mr. Trumps 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 Ive said all along, this movement is bigger than party or ideology, or even, dare I say, Trump himself. However, Im 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 shouldnt 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 peoples 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 Partys 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 weve witnessed to date, Mr. Trump is not going to walk into the Democrats traps or take their bait.

“”Did you miss the article telling about how much money was being paid to do just that!””
I guess I missed it - what/where is it?
David Perdue is exactly what I thought he would be when I reluctantly voted for him to keep Michelle Nunn out. He’s another go along get along establishment Republican only marginally better than Saxby Chambliss.
She is essential paying agitators to shut down the voice of the American people.
I think it was on FR. But don’t know the keywords used to search. Will look again. If you find it first ping me. This time I will save it

Georgia!
Can you add me to the list?
Part of the cheap labor express team. Because of that I am a little impressed with this Op-ed.
Bump to keep this active day even more agitated
Translation here is that Sen. David Perdue wants to ride Trumps coattails and establish himself as an early Senate ally of Trump. One of the first. Being early helps and Sen Perdue is smart enough to put differences aside.
Just because you are Jewish doesn't give you a clean right wing slate.
American evangelicals have been crazy for Israel for many, many years.
Senator Perdue, you magnificent bastard, you read his book (The Art of the Deal).
You’re already on it; did you somehow not get a few pings yesterday?
Sorry for my last comment to you. Have no idea what came over me.;-)
lol..... I saw it had no relation to what I said and let it go....
