Instapundit and USA Today columnist Glenn Reynolds goes on the record with his view of the political divide in our country.
The left wants it to be black vs. white, immigrant vs. native, etc. Trump’s making clear that it’s about people who are constructive, productive, and generally happy, vs. people who are destructive, parasitic, and generally miserable, and that that difference transcends things like race. This is a huge, underappreciated — and very traditionally American — message.
Reynolds apparently agrees with a view COTTonLINE readers have seen me write repeatedly - the GOP represents people for whom our system "works." The Dems stick up for those for whom - for a variety of mostly intrapersonal reasons - it does not. Oddly, the Dems also now represent those few for whom the system works too well, generating a sense either of guilt over unearned bounty or of noblesse oblige.
