Comfort zone

There is a strange correlation growing between how conservatives are treated on college campuses and how the Republican Party is treating Trump. The campus is supposed to be a place for all different ideas but lately things have changed. Certain speech is forbidden including conservative speakers. The GOP has preached for many years that they want to be the big tent party that they welcome everyone and yet they reject Trump who is bringing in all sorts of new voters. In both cases what they want is more people who think like they do. It goes back to the old story that people like to be in a room filled with people who think like they do. That is their comfort zone.
