Great reports!! Plus Trump said he wants to break the ice. Break the barrier that keeps people with a long business history out of politics because inevitably such people have made some bad decisions and screwed people too. Such people have too much of a past that can be used by the commie media to slime them. Trump is kind of humble on that and if he emerges a winner perhaps other successful business men will take a shot at politics
Lord knows we have enough slimy lawyers (Obama, Biden, Harry Reid) running the show. We need more businessmen, doctors and engineers in elective office
Trump says he will put our military on the border. That alone is enough to have me voting for him!
You hit another major point of Trump’s speech. As you say, he is very up front about great people of business do not want to get involved and have their personal and business lives subject to media scrutiny. He pulled no punches when he said there are many nice people making these deals we have with India and China. I just love his style when he says he doesn’t want those kind of people. He says with authority that he knows the toughest, nastiest business people in the world and does business with them and they are the ones who he wants negotiating for our country.
He is doing a brilliant job so far framing the argument. I was standing maybe 50 ft. away, directly facing his left profile. He was standing in the hot sun, no shade and talking very matter-of-fact, very comfortable. He knows his stuff and he is not the kind of guy who is going to get into all the political process and garbage we are sick of.
I sense he will put the media on trial and embarrass them like he did the other day with Meredith on the Today Show. He and his team will be very upfront and all this attack from Rove and the Left that he is a joke will be exposed as empty, whistling past the graveyard.
I was very skeptical and still not totally sold on Trump as a true shortlist candidate. But one thing I left with is that the guy is no joke. He is a very serious, mature man who may very well turn the campaign to his terms. I would not be saying this if the audience was anything other than the Tea Party. The media, the Leftist Democrats and the establishment GOP are terrified of the Tea Party, and Trump made the calculated decision to take his case to them first. In my view, from the crowd response, it went very, very well. Having Allen West speaking at the same event and introducing Trump is also quite telling. Let’s see what happens.
