Since the first GOP presidential debates, there is no denying that business mogul Donald Trump has rocketed to early frontrunner status in the 2016 GOP race for the White House. Properly interpreting the message behind his early success is an interesting endeavor…
Before Trump entered the fray, there was another even clearer frontrunner, who also was not officially in the race at the time.
In a field of prospective candidates back in February, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker was the landslide leader of the field with a whopping 47% of the conservative vote, his closest rivals being Ted Cruz at 13.5% and Rand Paul at 13%. Jeb Bush was back in the field at around 5%. It looked like Walker was a shoo-in for the GOP nomination, with Trump at only 1% back then.
So, what is it about Trump that has turned the GOP race on its head?
In short, Trump is viewed as the irreverent straight-talking anti-establishment non-politician candidate… Known for his heavy browed sharp tongued quips, short temper and “your fired” attitude, he has captured the imagination of the great unwashed and excessively frustrated American “right” who have given up on the “kinder-gentler” Republican turncoats of the past and opted for someone they think may actually do something that matters…
Simply stated, Trump is willing to talk about issues no other candidate is willing to talk about, and take positions that represent a vast majority of Americans that have been labeled “politically incorrect” by the RINO class of Republicans that have infected the GOP for far too long.
The people want real change… pro-American change, not Global Community Organizing intended to make America just another 3rd world member of the global commune. They want someone who says they will “Make America Great Again” and they think that person is Donald Trump.
Whether or not Trump is that person, only time will tell and in the meanwhile, people are so hungry for a real American to lead America, that they are willing to try anything at this point.
As a result, the GOP field now looks like this today - More at News with Views
