Watched Trump at his presser last night. Some reporter ask him question (couldn't really hear it) but, given Trump's response, I assume it had something to do with his take on the RNC/GOP establishment's non-support of his candidacy. The way Trump responded was by making the point his supporters include a broad spectrum of people from all walks of life and it's consistent nationally, not just in pockets of the East or South. He went on to make the point that because of these factors it proves he's expanding the party, which, as some will remember, has been the reasoning behind many of the establishments policy positions for years. The Big Tent idea, right? Examples aren't difficult to sight, the Gang of Eight debacle for one. So, it would seem what Trump's accomplished is what the REP establishment has been trying to accomplish for years, yet, they're fighting tooth & nail to burn down the guy who's built (& still expanding) the GOP's Big Tent!?! Interesting. And, I think Trump's answer to the reporter last night was meant to make the same point & challenge the establishment's Big Tent mantra. He was basically saying to the GOP; "you wanted a Big Tent, I'm building it & filling it, so what's the problem?". Doubt we'll ever hear a direct response from the establishment spokes-people, but it's a fair question to ask, don't you think?
Another interesting point about is the timing of this remark. He'd just won resoundingly in 4 states & was pretty sure he'd locked up 3 others. So, at that point, it's pretty hard to argue against the point he was making & I'm sure he knew it. It'll be interesting.
Trump is not building a "Big Tent." His Big Tent excludes BLM, the LGBT Community, women who want equal pay, etc.
And you know what, not one of those groups, no matter how much you pander to them, can stop illegal immigration, fix our economy, rebuild a strong military or rebuild our infrastructure. So you know what, time to shelve all the mini-victims and take care of the mother load.
Strangely when I googled "NPR Dems voting for Trump"...I got nothing - - - Updated - - - That's OK...no one believed the Big Tent BS anyway
