No Jay, that's not what I am saying at all. None of the Trump supporters I know take the showmanship seriously. They are more focused on his message of securing our borders, negotiating fair trade deals, returning good paying jobs to this country, rebuilding our military and making the world safer by projecting strength and resolve rather than weakness and backing down to those who cross red lines and scoff at resets. They are fed up with all of this PC crap and legitimizing of perverted behavior. They see the sheer stupidity and recklessness of spending more than we can afford and passing the enormous cost onto our kids and grandkids.

They see someone who has actually accomplished and built things. They realize that his unconventional style has netted him hundreds of millions in free national exposure which drove some of his failed competition nuts. Trump's strategy thus far has been sheer genius. He could have afforded to buy that much air-time, but he got it for a small fraction of the cost.

The statement about being able to shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not lose the support of his base was obviously a figure of speech to emphasize the loyalty he has generated. I'm surprised you'd actually make a big deal out of it. More mountains out of mole-hills. Meanwhile, Nero-bama is golfing while Rome burns, and his follow-up act is getting warmed up to finish us off.

I'd like to think you are at least equally concerned about that, but I'm not seeing any serious indications. Just a blank box or un-punched chad on your ballot.


Voting for anti-gun Democrats is dumber than giving treats to a dog that shits on a Persian Rug
