Quote:Trump is a megalomaniac and a statist

 

 

can't believe this guy is going to tweet and fool his way to the White House

 

 

what a stupid country

 

Yes, he is absolutely a statist.   He says, I will protect you, from Mexicans, from Muslims, and from foreign competition, especially China.  And I will not touch Social Security or Medicare.  Then he holds up a Bible and tells the evangelicals how religious he is. 

 

Who does this appeal to? Poor white people who think they need to be protected from the rest of the world.   People who are afraid of change, who see their way of life slipping away and want a man on a white horse to come in and create Fortress America.   Fewer Mexicans.  Fewer Muslims.  Fewer Chinese imports.  It's nothing but fear-mongering.   "I will protect you."
