A leader takes the aspirations of the people and turns that into action. It takes politics to know what these aspirations are, and build a consensus to “get er done” The people want a fence and locked down border; free speech in campaigns as in the 1st Amend; spending under control, the IRS abolished, and the enemy wiped out. Hint: (A real leader does not require a political adviser on the payroll. He needs to be smarter at politics than anybody he can hire.)

Oops: that last ping to you was for someone else.

I want to say, to you, that your definition of “Leader” and what an “American Leader” should be doing right now is perfectly, dead-on accurate:

“The people want a fence and locked down border; free speech in campaigns as in the 1st Amend; spending under control, the IRS abolished, and the enemy wiped out.”

I'm with you, but I'm not sure Fred is with us on this one.

A real leader knows what he wants. Apparently, Fred does not. Or he’s just messin’ with you.
