Two on The Donald
Having observed a hundred of more candidates in the 17 presidential elections I've followed, starting in 1952, 'liking Ike', I've got two observations on current media star Donald Trump.
The former candidate he most closely resembles is George Wallace. LIke Wallace, Trump is a brilliant, charismatic speaker using racism and zenophobia to energize that segment of the population starving for a dynamic candidate to validate and foment their hate and alienation from sensible democracy. His fearlessness of and contempt for the media and political critics is a strength which adds to his appeal.
If Trump ascends to the White House, an appropriate Secret Service moniker for this toxic human being might be "Agent Orange."
