Trump's style of 'presidential'
Vice presidential nominee Mike Pence compares Trump to Ronald Reagan -- but on stage Thursday night Trump was no happy warrior.
Trump
channeled Americans' grievances at home and abroad, pinning blame for
spikes in violence and drugs on undocumented immigrants, casting the
battle on terrorism as one being lost and demanding a return to law and
order.
This is what presidential
means to Trump. To his critics, it will come off as vacant and
dictatorial. But to his backers, it's the very embodiment of they've
been thinking, but not feeling welcome by society to say.
The
speech that ran more than 75 minutes was signature Trump, offering
America a prime-time look at his ability to channel voter anger that won
him the nomination.
No wonder
Trump spooks party loyalists. This was no Bush speech. Trump called for a
much more activist government -- intervening regularly in international
economics, cracking down ferociously on illegal immigration and even
taking special care to prevent LGBT Americans from targeted attacks.
