Trump’s Populist Movement

If you count primary votes today versus 4 years ago. Republicans are up 70% up and the Democrats are down 45%.  Trump grew the party with a populist movement that dwarfs voters’ response to Ronald Reagan’s campaign in 1980. 

Like now, in 1980 the US was in the “dumper”. We allowed LBJ to go to war in Vietnam and lost it, launched the War on Poverty and ruined Black families instead, passed Medicare because the Insurance Companies didn’t want to insure old people and created inflation that doubled the cost of everything.  Democrats joined Republicans and elected Ronald Reagan.

Republicans have used the “big tent” excuse for decades, trying to deflect criticism for their complicity in destroying the Constitution.  Now Trump has delivered the “big tent” results and the GOP Establishment doesn’t know what to do with it. They criticize Trump for inviting “those Democrats” into the GOP. 

There is nothing wrong with Democrats except that their elected officials are Marxists.  Now they’ve seen the mess we’re in and went looking for any candidate that told the truth and made sense.  Bernie told the truth, but most Democrats realize that we’re broke and in debt and can’t pay for his new entitlement plans, so he doesn’t make sense.  Donald told the truth and does make sense, so many Democrats changed Parties to vote for him.
