Trump is just like us: loud, obnoxious, egotistical, disrespectful
Why is it so important that Donald Trump be labeled a Democrat or Republican?
He is criticized for changing his mind on issues over the years. Isn’t that what all of us do as we evolve and grow over our lifetimes? We educate ourselves, adapt to the changing times and experience a variety of situations which cause us to re-evaluate our opinions. Politicians do this all the time.
Mr. Trump has not been involved in politics on this level until recently. He’s just a loud, egotistical, passionate person who is more honest and brave than most. Many Americans have felt invisible for a long time, as politicians ignore our concerns and put us and our country at risk of exploitation and even destruction. Mr. Trump is addressing many of these concerns.
Loud, obnoxious, egotistical and disrespectful is becoming the new norm in this country. Why should he be any different?
