Donald Trump is no cartoon. His demonization by weenie media misses the point.

The demonization of Donald Trump has gotten out of hand. Google The Donald. Read about him. He's no cartoon. Although I'm not sure I would vote for him, he has lots of things going for him and it's a mistake to think he would be a bad or evil president. He's been a Democrat most of his life. He's not a racist. His management style as POTUS would be much like that of Hillary Clinton. Like HRC, he's a pragmatist--not an ideologue. He obviously loves pissing people off--right now, he's loved more for his attitude above anything else--but what he really gets off on is getting things done. Bullying? Bullying is different to different people. If you mean by that "mean streak" you are probably right. Most doers have mean streaks. Most achievers can be bullies. I would worry more about "nicer" non-bully candidates. We need a warrior right now. Cruz, Rubio, Kasich, Bush, Santorum, Sanders, et al. Most of these are very fine candidates. We are lucky to have them. But either HRC or Trump--who I see as very similar to each other politically and as managers--best fit the bill right now.
