When Donald Trump announced in a press conference yesterday that he took the pledge to support whoever the Republican nominee might be, I heard rumblings from some that the Republican Party would now pull a trick to get him out of the race. And while on the surface that could perhaps seem plausible, I am of the opinion that it makes it even more difficult for the Republican "dirty tricks" brigade to take any such action.
Think about it this way. Trump right now has built a strong voter base, much broader than Republicans only, has expanded his internal lead and is now clearly developing an organizational structure that is in it to win it. And since he doesn't have to expend vast amounts of time and energy fund raising since he has the independent resources to stay the course he has set, he can focus like a laser beam on the ultimate goal. Contrast that to the others, all of whom are dependent on donors which also makes them campaign within the purview of what those donors expect. The Donald has no such constraints.
I think what you will see is a no holds barred campaign by Donald for what he thinks is right and just for the many Americans who truly want to see our nation return to greatness. And with the foundation he has established, he can focus all of his energies on expanding his appeal, all the while doing so by building support by explaining just how special America is and how we can keep it that way.
Let Jeb run around spouting Spanish and Scott Walker constantly swing and sway his positions trying to get them where they must be to support his stretch run, but Trump and to a lesser degree both Ted Cruz and Dr. Ben Carson can now focus on strategizing in campaigns that are more in tune with what Americans really want. And while Cruz and Carson still must be ever mindful of who has funded them, Trump is truly "footloose and fancy free" to do what he does best, stick to his guns with purpose and vision.
I only hope that as more time goes by, Trump can figure out an effective way to bring the two other leading "outsiders" into a joint effort to make sure the RINOs are neutralized. The ideas and aspirations of these three men if harnessed into one force would be an awesome movement for the America we all want to see. But I think we must have a strong leader, one who is brash and bold and will not allow America to be sucker punched, at the top of the ticket. I truly believe Trump is that man.
These are unusual times, folks, and unusual times require a new and unusual approach. And if there is one thing I am sure of about Donald Trump, he will keep his opponents on the run in their effort to try and keep up. Get ready for an interesting ride, America, for it is likely to be one which will break all the rules and shake up the system. Now is the time.
