Speech

Who is John Galt was the famous question posed in Atlas Shrugged and after last night’s speech people are asking, who is Donald Trump. He is the pragmatist that was always there and is now out in the open. He is taking apart the old enmity between liberal and conservative and using the Clinton strategy of triangulation. To satisfy the left he is open to legal status for some illegal immigrants, he is pushing for infrastructure projects and he is not touching social security or Medicare and for unions revamping NAPTA. For the conservatives he wants lower taxes, more military spending, immigration reform that starts border with control, repeal and replace of Obamacare, and appointing a conservative to the court. For the majority he wants better care for veterans, new manufacturing jobs, educational help along with fighting crime for the inner cities, support for NATO and destroying ISIS. Experts say that words matter but actions speak louder than words. We will see.
