I have seen some speculation that because of his extreme contrarian streak, Trump is moving right because he is getting so much flak from the left. I guess I will take it but it does not seen sustainable.
I guess we will see.

There must be an end to this intimidation by those who come to this great country, but reject its culture.

Re: Trump's Speech
The reaction is just great. I love the protests. These people are nuts and have no idea what they are talking/protesting about. Remember when the media and Demoncrats were saying that Trump supporters would riot after the election... The best response to that is Kevin Williamson from the NRO: "The last Republican to really trash an American city was William Tecumseh Sherman."
