Re: Trump Cancels Rally

[philstar22]

I think Cruz is actually worse in terms of policies. But Cruz understand policies. Things under Cruz would be bad, but I don't think we'd lose all our allies with him whereas with Trump I think we would. And I'm not scared of Cruz having access to nuclear weapons, whereas with Trump... Trump is scary in his reactivism and in his lack of savy. He's not an idiot in terms of intelligence, but he is an idiot in terms of politics and the running of government.

Well, government isn't a business so he probably wouldn't run us into the ground the same way :P

In all seriousnessness, though, Trump has no personality. He stopped being a real person 30 years ago when he became Trump the Brand. I genuinely believe his being a nativist bombthrower who talks like a Youtube comment is all just a marketing strategy; he's recognized the modern Republican base for what it is -- racist and sexist and stupid and easily swayed by anyone who seems "strong" enough (read: manly, which is why he's done so well against his more sedate, soft-spoken competition) -- and is pandering to them directly. No pretense, no dog whistle terms, just whipping people into a frenzy. I would be very surprised if he didn't morph immediately into a proper statesman upon securing the nomination, especially now that a lot of the establishment GOP is deciding to grudgingly get behind him because they hate Cruz more.

I agree with the first part of your analysis, but I don't see how this follows from it. He has no persona and cares for nothing besides instant gratification and power - what about that says "wants to be a statesman" to you?

I'm not saying he'll keep saying the same things, or being the same kind of insane that he is right now. I do think he'll keep doing whatever ridiculous thing benefits him the most and sounds the best in any given moment without any regard for decency or outcomes or morals, and I think it's dangerously naive to expect otherwise.

I'm not sure. I mean you've a point in that it could go either way with him but I fully expect him to change his personality to look like a proper politician. It's a marketing strategy, and nobody's better at marketing Trump than Trump.
