Trump: The Art of the Deal, 2016; Free Analysis of Donald Trump’s Presidential Campaign!
Think you know what brash Donald Trump stands for? Think again.
Here’s what Donald Trump initially offered (call it his political IPO) the voters who now say they are going to vote for him: You accept my megalomania, and in return, I make the 50 million (no, not 8 million-11 million) illegal aliens go away.
Here’s the current Trump offer: You accept my megalomania, and in return, I give you nothing. I will amnesty the 50 million illegal aliens.
Kind of like the Iran nukes “deal.”
On July 25, Trump folded on amnesty like a cheap suitcase, but he doesn’t talk about it anymore. Meanwhile, voters who signed on to his earlier deal, when he was loud, vulgar, obnoxious, narcissistic and opposed to amnesty, haven’t kept up, and mistakenly assume that his current posture of being loud, vulgar, obnoxious and narcissistic means that he’s still opposed to amnesty. But being loud, vulgar, obnoxious and narcissistic are constants with Trump; “principles” are all expedient.
