except the PotUS part.

He didn't HAVE to speak out against it.

In fact, one could argue it goes against conservative ideals that the PotUS (aka the government) shouldn't get involved with private business.

And even if he DID have to speak about it, he couldn't have done much of a worse job.

Sure the Trump fanboys across the nation will say he did no wrong. But they and "their guy" are wrong.

There are times to be blunt but more often than nought the use of intelligent language to communicate an idea the majority of the people could get behind is the best way to do it.

Sadly Trump doesn't have much of that ability.

Trump is a populist. Some of his policies overlap with conservatism, but he isn't a conservative. Look at his daughter, Ivanka. Typical limousine liberal. He's brought in some generals into his fold I wouldn't label as conservative.

As to this current dust up, Trump merely said what millions of ordinary people are saying around the dinner table, at the water cooler, on base, and everywhere else Americans gather. The left has anyone NOT on the fringe left frightened of their own shadows, lest they be called out as a bigot, sexist, homophobe, racist, and whatever other vile and baseless names that can be tossed out to silence the opposition. And frankly, before Trump, conservatives, who should have been leading the pushback to all this SJW business, had pretty much ceded the field to the SJW's. Until Trump. They threw everything including the kitchen sink at Trump, viciously, and without mercy, and he's still standing. People see that they can speak out against the SJW's agenda. This is exactly why he has such a loyal base.

Trump is like a real life John Connor.

Some of us were kept alive... to work... paying for illegals and freeloaders. The taxing units ran night and day. We were that close to going out forever. But there was one man who taught us to fight, to storm the wire of the camps, to smash those snowflake mother****ers in the junk. He turned it around. He brought us back from the brink. His name is Trump. Donald Trump.
