Much, of course, has been made of the obnoxious, dismissive, detail-shy “speeches” of Donald Trump. Hopefully, his “Duck Dynasty” and “Deliverance” base will ultimately prove insufficient because a majority of voters don’t have to live vicariously through a billionaire-celebrity-wise guy.
What would be truly scary, however, is if Trump had the capacity to alter his approach. In effect, to occasionally de-bluster and take the electorate aback with glibly-detailed policy points. And maybe throw in some charm offensive without hectoring and scapegoating. In short, to sound more like a protector than a belligerent.
Fortunately, as it were, he’s an egomaniacal scorpion–not a Marco Rubio chameleon. So, yeah, it could be worse.
