(title abridged for space)
I watched part of this rally in Alabama. I have to say, he really impressed me. Not a teleprompter in sight. It doesn't look like he's even wearing make-up (Which is actually a bigger deal than some might think for being a standard thing in TV). He actually looked sunburned.
He impressed me by what he said though, and this must have been a part I'd missed, to be honest, but he isn't a regular politician by any stretch. Nor is he a regular 'elite', tho he's got the bucks to be in the right clubs....whether he's wanted or not.
Now that was good of him to take notice on. I just wish I felt 100% certain he was really in it for the win, and not for making an image or enjoying the experience at the expense of the politicians he hates too. I'm getting over his lack of thought to earlier comments though. He's making up for it in plain talk, and saying what he feels. It's been SO LONG since we've seen someone for political office speak THEIR thoughts, and not 'the best thoughts', its like a whiff of fresh air in some ways. TBH? I think it was actually Reagan who last tended to speak from the heart in a way that clearly showed that way.

He sure doesn't care who he pisses off though..and GOOD. That, too, is something we haven't seen for SO many years at this level, I think it's shocking for that fact alone!

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump blasted hedge fund managers on Sunday as mere "paper pushers" who he said were "getting away with murder" by not paying their fair share of taxes.
In a telephone interview on CBS's "Face the Nation," Trump vowed to reform the tax laws if elected and said the current system was harming middle class Americans who currently faced higher tax rates than traders on Wall Street.

"Some of them are friends of mine. Some of them, I couldn't care less about," Trump said.
"It is the wrong thing. These guys are getting away with murder. I want to lower the rates for the middle class."
