Trump was empowered to humble the know-it-alls. He has been and will continue to be effective at it. Those who can't adapt and so fall by the wayside are acceptable losses. Collateral damage is a figment of the imagination. Don't complain. This is your life now.

Trump only does one thing. Throws shit and lies at the wall. Whatever sticks in any one event becomes his new mantra.

He started as a potential Democratic politician. When his rhetoric created personal grief (especially at that famous correspondent's dinner), he then discovered his rhetoric worked better in the Republican party where others such as Ted Cruz did same - just not as well.

His agenda is to preach whatever makes him better to a core constituency. Does not matter if it is a lie. His constituents don't care what is reality - only emotions.

He should be hated by Christian Evangelicals. But he discovered what sticks to a wall best when preaching to them. It need not be truthful or accurate. Only what makes them feel better.
