Protest vote. He is a giant middle finger to the party elites and their carefully crafted narrow talking points.
Right. The Tea Party was the protest vote, but they got co-opted. Now it is the Donald.
I don't ultimately see how a guy who latest claim to fame is going all around telling people "You're fired!" (ie throwing them out of their jobs...) is going to appeal to the socio-economic justice cohort of voters and get over 50% of votes...
I don't see how he can spin this to get 5% to 10% of this cohort to come over to the GOP with that track record... he may be able to come close but will end up with Romney like numbers in a general election..
New campaign slogan: It's the hair, stupid.
