I really haven't seen anything like this in American politics since Ross Perot, and I honestly think Trumps trumps Perot in sheer audacity and gravitas. In other news it looks like Bush's media blitz has moved him into 3rd place according to the Reuters dailies. I expect Trump will get a big bump out of the San Bernardino thing.
I like Donald Trump. No big secret. But like everyone else, I have cringed at some of his comments.
But, I'm not drawn to him because of his rhetorical skills or his persona, I like him for his skills as a leader, as a winner (proven track record), as an insurgent candidate, and for his genuineness (plain speaking, no focus groups and no backing down).
But, I just listened to him in an interview with Sean Hannity and now I am impressed with his rhetorical skill and his persona.
Just as I predicted months ago, he is growing as a candidate. If you haven't taken the time to just listen to him, do so. You will be impressed.
