Donald Trump is a liar and scam artist, but he's speaking to working people in a language they understand, and if Democrats don't start taking him seriously, he's going to be your and my president.
Last night, liberals and progressives in the media did something that I found extremely disturbing.
After Donald Trump gave what is in effect a victory lap speech, liberals and progressives in the mainstream media laughed at him because he was bad at reading the teleprompter.
You really couldn't ask for a better example of how the mainstream media still doesn't get it when it comes to Trump.
Sure, he isn't the best prompter reader, but he's nothing to laugh about.
Trump is far more dangerous than anyone thinks he is, and by dangerous I mean he could very well end up as president.
And that's not because of any real weaknesses on the part of Hillary Clinton, it's because he's shouting out to the people I grew up with.
He's speaking to working-class people who've been screwed over by the 30-plus years of Reaganomics, and he's speaking to them in a language they understand about issues they understand.
If Democrats don't start talking about these issues, Trump is going to walk away with the election This is what politicians, pundits, and the Democratic Party intelligentsia who live in the D.C. bubble apparently don't understand.
Working-class people, the people I grew up with in a blue-collar part of Lansing, Michigan -- they know what Trump's talking about when he says the factories are disappearing and they know what he's talking about when he says we're getting ripped off by so-called free trade deals.
They should know -- they're living it every single day of their lives, and
they're getting more and more desperate.
They also don't care about Trump's delivery or his terrible prompter skills.
They like the fact that he's not a polished politician, because they're not either.
But here's the rub: Trump is lying. He doesn't intend to any of this.
