DUMPING TRUMP


Donald Trump is just one more demagogue and ISIL is just one more terrorist group.

Their significance is that large - and apparently ever replenished - number of disaffected people who are attracted to them.

Bernie Sanders made a damn fine point on Rachael Maddow last night.

A demagogue is someone who finds very angry people... RIGHTFULLY very angry people... and directs their wrath against a scapegoat.

The challenge is not to beat Trump in an election of beat ISIL on the ground - both of which will eventually occur.

The challenge is to ROB THEM OF THE ANGRY PEOPLE EMPOWERING THEM by enlisting them in battle against the ACTUAL source of their anger.

Face it, the majority like Trump's message. Even after he committed to banning Muslim's from entering the country he continues to lead the polls.
