Sad thing is...Trump's already said that's not gonna happen. 4 million Conservatives sat home in 2012 when Willard was the nominee...I wonder how many million more will stay at home this year?
It's not just sad; it's stupid. Fact of the matter is, Trump lives in a rarefied atmosphere inhabited by the Masters of the Universe. At his core he is an elitist. This is not a judgement, it is a simple fact, based on his life story.
Now he can mouth the words that move the "masses". He is a keen observer of the culture and know how to push the proper hot buttons to elicit a predictable reaction. His time in the pro wrasslin' world was not wasted.
But, bottom line, the man's real life experience has absolutely nothing in common with that of the vast majority of his supporters life experience. In real life, when people are called out on boorish behavior, either they do apologize, or they endure the unpleasant consequences of doubling down on their boorishness.
