When Trump rends the fabric of the establishment’s universe, he is doing exactly what his supporters want him to do. Instead of being shocked, disappointed, or offended, his fans cling to him. They pray, “Please God, help him do it again.”And we are not responsible for the well-being of the world. Trump is a dirty thumb, shoved hard into the establishment's eye. When you hear them squeal, remember to applaud.
To understand that Trump is the solution, as his supporters do, Washington would have to concede that the establishment is the problem. If Donald Trump is right about anything, it means Washington has been wrong about everything: Higher taxes can’t grow the economy. We are not a few edicts away from regulatory Nirvana. Weakness won’t pass for strength in foreign policy. Our flag and our national identity are not embarrassments. The self-regarding elite doesn’t know best.
I'm not sure anyone has said as much, so I'll risk it: Trump is a revolutionary, the establishment is the ancien régime and they don't fancy being "disestablished," ending up on history's ash heap.
So far he's winning, they're losing. How much longer? Who knows, maybe until it's done, till we get our country back from that bunch of whiny elitists.
