I actually think that MORE people are informed these days. And that's why the Republican Establishment can't get away with the same old tricks they have always used to hand pick their nominee.

People aren't buying what the establishment is selling.
To try and say that it's all because people are "stupid" is an error.

I'm not stupid, and I think Trump is far and away the best thing going in the Republican Party right now.
I'm not gonna vote Republican (or Democrat)...but I do believe he could get our economy going strong again. And I do believe that he will get the best people available to handle the various cabinet posts.

As for all the social issue stuff...he is way too far right for my tastes. But then again so is Hillary. And I'm not going to vote for the "lesser of 2 evils" b.s. that the majority of people are going to do.
He may be the best. Doesn't mean he's qualified.

His bombing families will fail. His tax plans will fail, his defence plans will fail. Can he force Mexico to pay for the Wall and can he get China to accept tariffs and not demand the US repays it's debt without China lending more money?

However imposing more taxes on imports is something I support. Along with strict rules on migration.

As for his ban on Muslims, that now has changed to people from terrorist countries. Does that include the oil billionaires? Racking up the Visa policies would be far better, but less of a soundbite.
