Distressed American on Why Trump is Winning
Straight talk on why this candidate has so much momentum

by PoliZette Staff

The pundit class missed it — but average voters, beset by a declining America abused by unfair trade deals, a declining economy, a ballooning budget and unfettered immigration, understood Trump’s message. Below, a reader speaks for many across the country who are supporting Trump in the presidential election, offering insights about why the Republican front-runner and his message are so appealing.

The answer to Donald Trump’s popularity is simple — he gets us.

In good times, the GOP’s talking points inspire. But this is a different time.

Most people are struggling. Education is failing. College is becoming out of reach. Good jobs are leaving this country, while food and medical costs are rising. Seniors get no interest on bank deposits.

When people are working two and three jobs just to be able to survive, they don’t want to hear the same old rhetoric about “our Founding Fathers” and “our freedoms.”

When opportunities are taken away, freedom is a concept instead of a reality.

We don't trust the politicians to do anything but talk. We are angry.

Trump BUILDS things. He is smart, tough and successful. He knows the way to succeed in the modern world.

The "punditry elite" may discount him, but during interviews he displays common sense and intelligent solutions to problems.

There is a time for ideology and a time for "telling it like it is."

Regards,

A Reader from Racine, Wisconsin

Just more evidence that Trump is the GOP equivalent of Obama. This letter doesn't site specifics, just broad generalities. Trump is her "Empty Vessel" to fill with her hope and change.

. . . during interviews he displays common sense and intelligent solutions to problems by behaving and taking positions that are diametrically opposed to each.

Fixed. ;)

Somehow I just don't think the way to fix an afflicted neighbourhood is to break the houses.

Ann Coulter seconds that writer's assessment:

"Trump is the first presidential candidate in 50 years who might conceivably: (1) deport illegal aliens, (2) build a wall, (3) block Muslim immigration, (4) flout political correctness, (5) bring manufacturing home, and (6) end the GOP's neurotic compulsion to start wars in some godforsaken part of the world."

"Even if you think Trump is a libertine, shallow narcissist, you know he will do what no other Republican will: Go to Washington, kick ass, mock political correctness, build a wall, deport illegals, bring manufacturing home, and end the GOP's peculiar fixation with remaking the Muslim world."

Which are Coulter's words to describe the man she adores.   

But, then, Coulter is a libertine, shallow narcissist.   Which is why she's an old maid, bereft of husband and children.

Maybe she swings the other way.  WHo the hell knows?

Can this be said of ANY other candidate for POTUS?
