I believe THIS frightened the Democrats and lots of RINOs and #NeverTrumpers...Trump broke the code...they basically said "NO! you CANNOT speak that way to anyone that's been taken for granted."
People forget Trump worked in CONSTRUCTION...he worked with more minorities than Elizabeth Warren and Hillary Clinton and the staff of MSNBC combined.
One of the key and many times unsung elements of Trump and Deplorables, is that the coalition he put together has the potential to unite heretofore un-united individuals. Minorities of all stripes (blacks, hispanics, gays), union guys, and others used by the statists for decades suddenly seem willing to jump on the Trump Train. While many Patriots may chafe at the thought of working alongside some of these masses, I'd rather have Peter Thiel and Ben Carson in my boat than McCain or W.
Ponder this about the USA: she's about two-thirds white, 12% black, 10% Hispanic, 5% Asian, and 3% mixed race...and almost ALL of those whites descended from immigrants. From this nation of mutts, this ragtag group of individuals making up 4-5% of the world's population...we mix our labor with 18% of the world's energy output to produce 22% of the planet's GDP. In turn, we hold about 25% of the world's wealth and attract about 30% of the world's bond and equity investment....ALL with only 16% of the world's carbon footprint.
America remains a God-fearing nation. We still have lots of people who go to church and believe in family values. And we remain a nation of individuals...for every Jesse Jackson there is a Clarence Thomas, for every Hillary Clinton there is a Sarah Palin...and for every Richard Nixon there is a Donald Trump.
Statist racists posing as tolerant multiculturalists will be doomed to ignominity once their deception is revealed. Yes there is a lot of work and there are a lot of headwinds. But I don't think our fractured gene pool predestines us to a Rome-like fall. We've been kicking butt for a long time, and if God permits it, the odds and data seem to be in our favor.
