A couple of nights ago I watched maybe a half hour of President Trump’s campaign rally in North Dakota on behalf of Rep. Kevin Cramer, the Republican senate nominee to defeat Senator Heidi Heitkamp (D-ND). Trump looked like he was having a good time. The overflow crowd certainly did.
There were teleprompters and perhaps he used them, but his speech gave the appearance of being stream-of-consciousness and off-the-cuff. Dilbert’s creator Scott Adams is correct, Trump is very good at what he does.
Trump played that crowd like a fiddle. And like most folks who excel at something, he enjoys demonstrating his mastery. I wonder if Democrats have figured out that, absent some unforeseen cataclysm, he will be very hard to defeat in 2020.
