Do you think Trump would make the best candidate and president out of the current GOP bunch?
I believe Trump best understands the mood of the country.
Keep in mind that Reagan was a huge fan of FDR, even after he converted to Constitutional principles, because of his leadership skills.
The “professional” Republican leaders in my state are stressing the need to play to independent voters. Temper the message, if you will, to garner their support.
People are looking for a leader. If a Republican can emerge that will give a positive message on our core principles he/she will energize the electorate. Otherwise people will submit to the false security of governmental intervention.
