Default Donald Trump ain't your typical "politician"...

If nothing else, it showed Trump's style is still magic. The bloviators don't like it because their self induced influence mindset isn't taking hold with the public yet.
Hi Tom,

I posted that quote from Charles Krauthammer because to talk about Trump "collapsing" in the debate struck me as... complete garbage! Sorry to be so blunt, but that's the case...

I think a lot of these journalists and others are looking at it from a "traditional" perspective... Judging Trump the way they judge every other politician. What did Trump say about specific policies? Etc.

One reason people love Trump is because they feel the system needs shaking up... And they feel he can shake up the system...

As Denny Hatch pointed out... People hate politicians now, possibly more than at any time in history. Trump is running as the one guy who's NOT a politician!

Trump even pointed out that government is essentially "for sale"... He said:

"I will tell you that our system is broken. I gave to many people, before this, before two months ago, I was a businessman. I give to everybody. When they call, I give. And do you know what? When I need something from them two years later, three years later, I call them, they are there for me... And that's a broken system."

Everybody knows that this is how it works... All politicians are "for sale"... But few people talk about it openly and honestly...
