Trump just took ‘telling ordinary Americans’ stories’ to a whole new level

The true inspiration for Donald Trump’s State of the Union speech was not Ronald Reagan or Abraham Lincoln. It was Paul Harvey.

His five-minute daily show, “The Rest of the Story,” featured beautifully told tales of individual Americans and the challenges they overcame from a populist right-wing perspective.

Forget the immigration talk and the border talk and the prescription drugs and whatever he said about America’s global challenges.

Trump’s policy is largely improvisational anyway, and there’s nothing he promised or vowed or cited as something America desperately needs that he couldn’t take back tomorrow.

I believe the triumph of the day was featuring the two black families who lost relatives to illegals.

Excellent tactic that cements with any of the black community what we are up against:  Democrats who will not protect them, but illegals.
