Another obvious similarity between guys like Rubio (and Bush and Kasich), is they are always telling us “that’s not how Americans think” or words to that effect. As if they were somehow the national conscience or something.
Trump tells the Persing pigs blood story and delights in the audience’s roaring response. He says “we don’t win anymore” and nobody boos him for saying that everything isn’t sunshine and roses. He talks about the stupid deals our incompetent leaders have made that are robbing us of our future and people applaud his honesty.
The reason is because Trump tells these stories in the context of making American great again. He doesn’t put America down, he just points out how great things used to be and offers a way to regain that stature. That is called inspiration leadership.
Marco would cite statistics to argue the minutia and propose wonky plans that never would make a dent in the problem after spending billions and years of effort.
Inspirational leadership is what is going to help Trump win.

Did you notice what Trump audience members were chanting as Trump went on stage to give his victory speech that no other candidate's people chanted?
USA! USA! USA! USA!
I am in Trump's camp come hell or high water - these others - I don't know them.
