Trump is a crass, vulgar, self-promotional blowhard. He has demeaned the political process with his outrageous language and policy positions. That said, he's the most moderate of all the GOP candidates, who, like always, are always trying to outdo one another in appealing to the goobers, wingnuts and crazy christians who make up the bulk of Republican voters. They're so transparent it is comical.
Notice how each one of them still gravely pronounces that the first thing he's going to do is "repeal Obamacare." Forget that the program has helped millions afford health insurance--which to everybody but Republicans is a pretty good thing. Still, Republican pols have been saying for, what, three or more years that they are going to repeal Obamacare, when there is no chance that it will be repealed. The Supreme Court upheld it. That is the thing with Republicans--they are on the wrong side of almost every issue, and can never accept the fact that they've lost on an issue. They are always fighting old battles---which I guess they must because they never want to tackle any real problems. And so they prattle and hurumph about what Democrats do, because Democrats actually try to solve problems and promote a term that is in the constitution--the "general welfare"--meaning the common good. But the GOP basically doesn't believe in the common good. It doesn't believe doing anything but helping rich corporations and wealthy individuals who most assuredly do not need help. They heap scorn on those who actually do need assistance, wondering why they weren't born to upper-middle-income families as they were. Republicans are people who, asked to choose between protecting the health of American people on issues like toxic dumping or protecting the profits of companies that pollute, always choose to side with corporate polluters. They lie about global warming to protect big energy companies. They never miss a chance to stiff average working people, whether it be on the minimum wage, unions, worker disability, unemployment pay, you name it. They are venal, small-minded, horrible people.
hes def a lunatic.
