And Rush was correct. Trump will say what he wants to and will not be "handled" like every politician is.
Hell, if not for the stupid "birther" shit from 2012...I'd think Trump would have a chance.
And he still might. The things he said today about jobs are what most Americans are wanting.
I was in shock when Pres. Obama took office in the middle of a horrible collapse of the economy...and instead of doing something about jobs...he opted to give us all a new health insurance bill to pay instead.
Listening to Trump talk about jobs...I think that might resonate.
Which is why Republicans, Dems, and the media will do nothing but ridicule him (he's an easy target) and try to make sure he has no chance in hell.
Limbaugh theorized that Trump has no chance to win the Republican primary...and that then he will go independent in the general election as a candidate and that will practically give the election to Hillary Clinton.
That explains why Republicans are trashing him so hard.

Republicans tend to stick to their party message. Trump could be that rare republican that strikes a populist tone. Like you said, people want to hear about jobs. Not just any jobs, but good paying jobs. Many people blame their job losses on China and Trump will have harsh words for China.
I don't think he will win the republican nomination, but he could make some noise and I won't be shocked to then see him run as an independent. Of course, as Limbaugh said, if he does that it pretty much hands the election to Hillary.
