I find it astounding that the Republican Party continues to attack its front-runner, Donald Trump. Regardless of how you feel about him, it is quite the spectacle. Why is this happening? And when I ask that question, its really two: Why is Trump rising and why is the Republican Party so afraid?
Well, Trump--again, regardless of who you feel about him--is rising because he is not out of touch with the voters. He has given political correctness a much needed middle finger and actually speaks about issues the GOP base cares about.
No Repubican establishment candidate sounds much different than any Democrat on immigration. The GOP wants to repeal Obamacare but cannot seem to even seem interested enough to fight it. They talk a good game but do not even fight the good fight.
But they have no trouble attacking the Tea Party or its candiate Ted Cruz or Trump who is running away with the nomination.
Is the entire game rigged? Are DC Republicans, inside their bubble, completely out of touch, corrupted by the whole Beltway culture? What do these "conservative think-tanks" really do except live off people's donations?
People are losing faith and hope (on both sides--lots of Democrats don't like Hillary). The parties seem to listen only to big donors and vote themselves benefits and raises at public expense. Bernie Sanders is rising on the left and Trump on the right. That tells you something is wrong.
If the people in DC don't want to listen, fine.
Work on your cardio, because you will need it when the mobs come.
Just a piece of friendly advice.
