Why Does Trump Upset So Many People?

Why Does Trump Upset So Many People?

It is the political season and politicians are out in force. They are behaving just like politicians always do. Trump is not. Trump is saying what he thinks and a lot of people like hearing it.

Many people are viewing what he is saying through “Political Optics”. Problem is Trump is not a true politician. The conservatives fear he is really a liberal and liberals are in glee because Trump could be one of them! Both parties have no idea of what to do except fear him!

Trump has no political ideology. He thinks and he speaks without political concern. I believe he is as surprised as anyone that “Plain Speak” has attracted millions. The talking heads and other pundits talk incessantly about him putting his foot in his mouth and waiting for his political collapse. They are continuously shocked! Their views are purely political. They think they are talking to a savvy politician that has boned up on any and all issues. Real leaders don’t think that way. They think strategically and not tactically. Real leaders surround themselves with the smartest people they can find and fire the rest. Real leaders use a consultative approach to decision makers that take in as much advice as they can. They then make the decision and the responsibility that goes along with it.

Trump also speaks like the everyday American. Always ready to give an opinion and not fail to respond when asked. That makes him vulnerable to political hacks that like to trap people. In the process, Trump has managed to have the largest unfavorable ratings of any politician in memory running for office.  Does that bother you? Maybe it should. But, if you look at Trump like looking into a mirror, you will likely see yourself; a non-political person with the country put first and popularity last.

Ask yourself this, have popular politicians hurt or helped this country? Why? You know why, they put politics first.
