As always, there will be those around here criticizing Trump and telling him to just shut up, be gracious, etc. And that’s why Trump is on his way to being re-elected President and they’re not. Trump doesn’t believe in prevent defense, and rightly so.

"shut up, gracious, prevent defense"? Of course not. However, and just off the top...

"Presidential, principled, dignified, and Reaganesque" would be worthy objectives for our nominee.

Being Reaganesque was great for Reagan. That’s who he was. But Reagan’s not running. Better advice to any worthy candidate is to be yourself and not pretend you’re something you’re not. The people want and need honesty, not nuance.
