I have a theory about Trump's strategy. Remember how "people who live in glass house's shouldn't throw stones"? Trump has TONS of glass house-type baggage available to everybody via a simple internet search. By creating all this ruckus and not backing down from it, owning it, he has preemptively broken all his windows. Its going to be very difficult to dig out something and attack him with it after this, it will be ineffective.

He's also the Teflon Don, and the biggest troll in the known universe. Look out.

Former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina

In May, he told the Des Moines Register that Fiorina was “viciously fired” from the tech giant then “lost in a landslide” in her race for a California Senate seat.

“She lost much of her money on that run — that’s why she carries her own bags now,” he said.

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney

In January, he said in a speech at the Iowa Freedom Summit that Mitt Romney shouldn’t run again because “he choked” in 2012. “It can’t be Mitt, because Mitt ran and failed,” he said. In July, he told the Washington Post that Romney was “a frozen jellyfish” in the presidential debates.

Lookout, GOP:

Donald Trump keeps putting his foot in his mouth. That is obvious. The more serious consideration is whether Trump is doing it on purpose.

The media with no lack of assistance from “The Donald” has managed to depict Trump as a buffoon whose campaign is fodder for Saturday Night Live. The Huffington Post has put the campaign on the entertainment pages. Republicans are getting squeamish about whether Trump will hurt the party. It is frequently suggested that the entire campaign is simply a masquerade to enhance Trump’s publicity — as if he possessed no other mechanism to accomplish that.


Meanwhile, Trump continues to generate enormous publicity. The recent barb hurled at Sen. John McCain’s war record dominates the news.

Trump turned himself into an iconic brand. Are we to assume that Trump has no idea what he is doing?

So, who is speaking to the issues that ordinary citizens see in the media and experience in their daily lives? Generally the Republicans and Democrats are indistinguishable from each other. They choose to dodge the issues that might give offense.

Let us not offend the organized interest groups. Let us just offend the silent, complacent majority.

Let us not protect the small business owners in Ferguson, Missouri. Let us protect the rioters.

Let us not showcase the death of Katie Steinle at the hands of a repeatedly deported illegal who was a seven-time convicted felon, it might offend illegals.

Let us wash the White House in rainbow colors to celebrate the Supreme Court’s decision on gay marriage, but let us not lower the flag for our heroes shot in Chattanooga.

Let us not arm the Marines, but let us tell them not to walk the streets of America in their uniforms.

All these policies unobtrusively reveal burning truths about what really is happening in America. In the process, they are causing a vast seething rage among the people who obey the law, pay their taxes, and never set flame to anything but a bar-b-que. Those people are out in the streets of Chattanooga peacefully venting anger. They and others like them are ripe for mobilization.

Trump is speaking to those people. The media is inadvertently giving him a platform. A duplicitous government and a complacent set of political candidates are giving him credibility.

The silent majority does not care if Trump stumbles, if his rhetoric is offensive, and if he offends McCain. They see McCain as having betrayed them.

The way things are going with Hillary, she may be worried about spending time rather than running for office. Federal judges approving sapenas (can't find proper spelling. SURPRISE !) and the Congress ready to give her an obstruction. Her "Private server" for government use is enough to have her jailed, IF they push it.
