I believe America can properly respect Trump, by bringing back American businesses.

We have exported everything.

A lot of people made a whole lot of money selling off American factories.

But not America’s workers. Bring back American jobs.

Most of this is rather mush-like.

But he finally gets to the point:

To really become Trump-like, you must spend decades living and toiling and struggling and grasping and failing and biding your time in your own skin, alone.

Trump isn't going to be knocked down by a disapproving press. He isn't trying to impress the cultural establishment, or the GOP establishment. For better or for worse, he is trying to impress the guy staring back at him in the mirror.

Pure psychobabble. Trump’s messages and issues aside, he is genuinely and deliberately ushering in a new model of campaign for the Kardashians age. You can complain about it, love it, hate it, embrace it but it is here and there is no going back. Master it or lose.

Some of this piece is brilliant.

I’m still in a strange place about Trump. Because he/his brand has been around ..I’ve come to think of him in certain ways- I’m unprepared for the new version I’m seeing. Sometimes I think I’m just substituting my own hopes and longings to have my country be my country again, and listen to him and believe he wants that too. I then dismiss him, and my hopes because ...I’m projecting.

But lately, I’m coming to see a different Trump- a guy who is in a truly unique position to actually DO some things that might make America possible again. The true power of great leaders is they somehow rise above the mundane and make us do the same.

With blinders.

That way we don't notice that he voted for ubama, that he praised ubamacare, that he donated to hillary, that he became Republican only recently, that he has used legal action for Kelo-style land grabs, that he is not known for keeping promises, that he is as narcissistic as ubama, or that there are more nude pictures of his wife on the internet than there are of ubama's mother.

All he's done is make a few appealing statements that we like, ala Jesse Ventura.

What I want to know is, what would Donald Trump do as President that would be so terrible that the thought is supposedly unthinkable for any reasonable person?

May not have been the real intent, but it ends up portraying Trump as a solid and stable individual because of his experiences. Most of us that admire what he’s doing has nothing to do with sensationalism - that comes from the other side of the aisle via its attempts to shut him down.

Are they telling us how to admire somebody now? Nah thanks, I’ll pass.
