I have seen some speculation that because of his extreme contrarian streak, Trump is moving right because he is getting so much flak from the left. I guess I will take it but it does not seen sustainable.

I guess we will see.
And yet with the ridiculous and childish hysteria from the Left, you would think he was "Literally Hitler."
There must be an end to this intimidation by those who come to this great country, but reject its culture.

He's a Rockefeller Republican with populist leanings and no mouth/brain filter.

The next 4 years are going to be entertaining :lol:

FIFY.

The reaction is just great. I love the protests. These people are nuts and have no idea what they are talking/protesting about. Remember when the media and Demoncrats were saying that Trump supporters would riot after the election... The best response to that is Kevin Williamson from the NRO: "The last Republican to really trash an American city was William Tecumseh Sherman."
