President-elect Donald Trump may not have a popular vote mandate, but he possesses raw political assets that are even more powerful: superior communications skills, a highly energized, devoted and organized grassroots following, and true fearlessness.
A master entertainer; he has captured America’s attention, with friends, foes and those in-between on the edge of their seats wondering what he’ll do next....

I did love listening to him last night in Ohio!
It will be worse for fringe lunatic liberals when it’s not President Elect Trump anymore.
Last night was the best part of my day too!
I sure was ready for a MAD DOG conversation....no more Romney!
I’m hoping to see him when he hits Pennsylvania. He’s not only making America Great Again...He’s Making America Fun Again...and he’s making sure we know we’re all a part of it. It’s not just him sitting in the ivory tower dictating what happens to us, it’s US.
Trump is proving he’s the best communicating with people since Reagan.
Five points and they overlook the most important and obvious one:
Trump speaks simply using language that everyone can understand.
I was going to add “unambiguously” but there I’d violate the Trump rule...
[President-elect Donald Trump may not have a popular vote mandate]
President-elect DONALD TRUMP has an ELECTORAL MANDATE.
Anyone that speaks continually to crowd after crowd after crowd of thousands and the crowds "get it" is a Great Communicator.
He's not God and we need to be careful we don't Hitlerize him
I DO expect him to be the greatest President ever because of what he has inherited and what we believe he will do.
He’s a great communicator to those who speak actual American. I frequently have to translate to clueless neighbours.
My father has seen every Republican nomeinee since Ike speak. He never thought he would see anyone come close to The Gipper, yet he rates Trump higher as a communicator.
Trump is the President we have been waiting for since Washington. The man to destroy the corrupt party system
I heard snippets. Thought it was lame. 1- act like w inner. You don’t need to tell us previous admin was worthless- we know that. It’s why we elected you. It will do nothing to unite.
I want to hear more about unity and denunciation of hatred bigotry ignorance and prejudice. Now is the time for that. It gets ever more difficult when you take office and crawl into specific mud.
What makes him a good communicator is his thorough refusal to play politically correct. It is wildly refreshing.
Wow, what a speech in Ohio. Amazing how he would look straight ahead (the teleprompters are to the left and right) and he just TALKED, then he would go back to script. Man this is refreshing and this is going to be fun.
I think PA and FL will be on his list...I will go here too.
We may need Veterans for MAD DOG shirts here too!
“I DO expect him to be the greatest President ever because of what he has inherited and what we believe he will do. “
When I said that July of 2-15, about a month after he started running I got a lot of guff and sarcasm for it.
The change is great.
He did well in Indy too.
Wife and I watched, the part of his `Thanks’ tour about Carrier was on all the channels here.
Though he rarely spoke from script even in the past, he was relaxed—none of the staccato `George Steinbrenner’-mode and repetition we heard when his rallies and supporters were being attacked by uniparty thugs and the MSM ... but I re-Pete myself.
He’s going to get even smoother, and w/o a teleprompter like the mellifluous baritone, empty suit, bird brained lame duck.
0vomit: I, me, my
Trump: We, us, our
What a difference!
Its fun to praise Trump Now—when he is a winner—BUT lets not put the cart before the horse. Lets see what he does as President. I am pleased that he is acting as if he’s president now—and by example he is showing how starved we are for leadership. I would like to see him with a fleshed out Cabinet, a person for Supreme Court, a design for the wall, and changes to the White House—plans for the new Ball Room (the Gold Room?) and designs for new ships for the Navy (The USS United States) and planes for the Air force (F-20 and B-4?).
Funny, after the election - I was elated, estatic. But then, as the days went on - I realized - I was starved. Most of us had such a ride the past few months - and NO I don’t miss the ups and downs. But I realized I just loved watching the rallies with Trump. When that stopped - the news on TV was SO boring.
Watching last night it was so much fun. Anyone else feel that way? Watching Trump truly express love of America and the American Dream - and be the OPPOSITE of the Narcisist-In-Chief “uh uh uh I, Me, My”
