On one hand, I am disappointed also that Sowell doesn’t come out in strong support of Trump.
But, I think he was writing this from the perspective of those who haven’t got on the Trump train yet, and is trying to persuade them, that while Trump may not be exactly what they wished for, he is the right choice, the only correct choice, to defeat Hillary who would be a total disaster for the country and everyone in it.
Maybe.
I think he’s basically right, though. Just because Trump bellows what you want to hear on a few things, does not mean he is truly reliably conservative. Or has finese that can help undermine liberal bluster. He is no Reagan.
This has not been a good year. But as always, we have to do what can only be done legally. We have virtually no choice.
